1
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: We have sunshine right now on our way to fifty

2
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: five today.

3
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 2: A nice warm up.

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: It's a nice change of pace, isn't it. I chose

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: today to wear boots. My name is Casey, that is Jim,

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: and we have to talk about the latest in the

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie crisis. What's going on with Savannah Guthrie's eighty

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: four year old mother. She's believed to have been kidnapped

9
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 1: from her Arizona home around January thirty.

10
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: First.

11
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: Law enforcement has been investigating and treating it as a

12
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: possible abduction. However, they have not identified any suspect, person

13
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 1: of interest, or even a vehicle in the case yet.

14
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the news that came out yesterday is Savannah

15
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 3: Guthrie and her family released another video discussing this. We

16
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 3: saw another deadline that was in place that came from

17
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: one of the ransom notes that has expired. It's come

18
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 3: and gone. And we were also told in their reports

19
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 3: this morning that the Guthrie family has not made the

20
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: ransom payment either. So that's the latest on the Nancy

21
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 3: Guthrie saga as it stands right now.

22
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, So there's been no verified contact with supposed kidnappers

23
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: and as you mentioned. Savannah Guthrie put out another emotional

24
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: video begging for help and information, saying that they have

25
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: met an hour of desperation.

26
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 4: We believe our mom is still out there.

27
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 2: We need your help.

28
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 4: Law enforcement is working tirelessly around the clock trying to

29
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 4: bring her home, trying to find her. She was taken

30
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 4: and we don't know where, and we need your help.

31
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 4: So I'm coming on just to ask you, not just

32
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 4: for your prayers, but no matter where you are, even

33
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 4: if you're far from Tucson, if you see anything, you

34
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 4: hear anything, if there's anything at all that seems strange

35
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 4: to you that you report to law enforcement, we are

36
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 4: an hour of desperation and we need job.

37
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: So the family has stated that they believe that Nancy

38
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: is still alive. They've publicly asked for help, public assistance, tips, anything,

39
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: and an hour of desperation. You have to think that

40
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: they're starting to lose a little bit of hope.

41
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, the investigation is definitely losing steam.

42
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

43
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 3: I mean, every day that goes by, I think the

44
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 3: likelihood of Nancy coming back alive goes down. It's a

45
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: terrible story, a tragic story. You know, there's a lot

46
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 3: of criticism that's going on, and rightly so. In this

47
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 3: the you know, local Pima County Sheriff's office has been

48
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 3: criticized for not doing the best job at the investigation,

49
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: maybe releasing the crime scene too early to where people

50
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: from the public and the reporters and others could you know,

51
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 3: enter the crime scene and potentially spoil it before it

52
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 3: was secured and they were able to gather all the

53
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 3: evidence from it. There's another bit of a twist of

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 3: the story and scandal that's coming out, and that's the

55
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 3: Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos, who is heading up this

56
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 3: investigation from a local standpoint, received a lot of scrutiny

57
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 3: over the weekend because he appeared at a University of

58
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: Arizona and Oklahoma State college basketball game on Saturday night.

59
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,839
Speaker 3: But he had been saying things previously like we're doing

60
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 3: everything we can, all the resources, we're working on this

61
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: round the clock. And then he shows up and he's

62
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 3: photographed at this college basketball He has the.

63
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 2: Right to live his life, he does.

64
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 3: I agree to that, and I agree everybody needs a

65
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: break from their job, but in this specific instance, with

66
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 3: such a high profile case and the statements of the

67
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: county sheriffs have come out about how they're doing everything

68
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 3: and working around the clock and doing this.

69
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 5: It is a bad look. You know, I get it.

70
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 5: You know you get your.

71
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 3: Downtime, but maybe you know, have your downtime in your

72
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 3: backyard privately by yourself, instead of publicly attending a college

73
00:03:58,400 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 3: basketball game.

74
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 5: I think he's get all of this.

75
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: He gets paid to do a job, and he has

76
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: every right to do what he wants with his free time.

77
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: You've got this veteran homicide investigator.

78
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 2: He's worked with forty eight hours.

79
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: And he says that there are key elements of true

80
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: kidnapping that aren't present in this case.

81
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 6: I don't think she was kidnapped. We would have heard listen.

82
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 5: There would have been a video. There would have been

83
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 5: a photograph.

84
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 6: There'd have been something, a lock of hair, drop of blood,

85
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 6: something mailed to somebody so they could verify, yes, in fact,

86
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 6: these people have my mother. Kidnappers want to get paid quickly.

87
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 6: They don't want this thing to linger. If you're negotiating

88
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 6: with another drug dealer in South America somewhere, it could

89
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 6: go on for a few weeks, a month until they

90
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 6: get bored and decide this is not worth it, and

91
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 6: it's either pay up or we're going to kill this person.

92
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 6: And it's always a negotiation, right, The first figured that

93
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 6: I threw out is never what actually gets paid. Like

94
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 6: any good business deal, they're going to be a negotiation,

95
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 6: but it's going to be a fast and hard one.

96
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 6: And there's been no negotiations. No one's called up and said, hey,

97
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 6: where's my money.

98
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: A lot of people are questioning whether this was a

99
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: kidnapping at all.

100
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 3: Well, there's so much that's unknown, and this is part

101
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,679
Speaker 3: of the larger problem. Local law enforcement and the FBI

102
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 3: aren't releasing a whole lot of details. And I get

103
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 3: that they're trying to preserve the sanctity of their investigation

104
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 3: as best they can. They're trying to strategize about the

105
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 3: best way to go about this that gives them the

106
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 3: best chance of recovering Nancy Guthrie alive. So they're they're

107
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 3: kind of playing things close to the vest and not

108
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 3: telling us everything that's going on. The problem with that is,

109
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 3: as the American public in the media love to do

110
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 3: on a high profile situation on this, when we don't

111
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 3: get a lot.

112
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 5: Of details fill in the blank, we just start.

113
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 3: Speculating, and so you get experts like this, and look,

114
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 3: this guy comes across as extraordinarily credible. He's a former investigator,

115
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 3: He's done this before. You know, it's part of his

116
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: job on a day to day basis, and I really

117
00:05:58,800 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 3: like his analysis.

118
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 5: I mean, he seems to be straightforward about this.

119
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 3: Every day that goes by is another day, and you know,

120
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 3: reduces the likelihood that Nancy Guthrie is going to come

121
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: out of this alive. And this doesn't really check a

122
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 3: lot of the boxes that you see from traditional kidnapping cases.

123
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 3: So again people speculate, was she really kidnapped at all?

124
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 5: You know, is she alive?

125
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 3: Isn't she alive? Who could be the perpetrator of this?

126
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 3: Are these ransom notes that were delivered to TMZ and

127
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 3: a couple of local media outlets authentic or fake.

128
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 2: Or just or is it just a ruse?

129
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: Just a ruse, you know, maybe just a ruse done

130
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 3: by a random burst of the public has nothing to

131
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,679
Speaker 3: do it, Or if she was kidnapped, maybe a ruse

132
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 3: to throw the investigators off the tracks. Maybe the kidnappers

133
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 3: did send that that they have no intention of returning her,

134
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 3: collecting any sort of ransom.

135
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 5: So all we're left to do.

136
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: People are saying, hey, this is a signal that they're

137
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: trying to send to Savannah Guthrie.

138
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 2: And because he got too close to something, because.

139
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 3: We don't have that many details, because this is such

140
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 3: a whope, high profile case, and because there's so much

141
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 3: interest from the American public in this case, all we're

142
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 3: left to do at this point is speculate.

143
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: So Will Smith is stepping down as publisher and CEO

144
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: of The Washington Post. He announced his departure in a

145
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: brief female to staff, and that comes just days after

146
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: the paper announced some mass layoffs, cutting about a third

147
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: of its newsroom.

148
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 3: Look, if you're running a newspaper today, and that is

149
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: about one of the toughest jobs you can do. I mean,

150
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 3: newspapers have had so many uphill battles. But what is

151
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 3: fascinating about this story is last week the Washington Post

152
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,679
Speaker 3: came out and said we are eliminating our sports department,

153
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 3: which was a big deal. It's got a long, storied

154
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 3: history of covering sports, both in the DC market and nationally,

155
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, the sports section is completely

156
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 3: going away. And then on Saturday, so there's wailing and

157
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 3: gnashing of teeth because of course journalists. Journalists think they

158
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 3: have the most important job in the entire country. Just

159
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 3: ask them, they will tell you that they are the

160
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 3: most elitist group of people, self grandizing, self absorbed people

161
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 3: you will ever come across. So the Washington Post eliminates

162
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 3: the sports section, and there's wailing and gnashing of teeth

163
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 3: from journalists that you know, America is dying right in

164
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 3: front of us because we don't have a free press.

165
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: And Jeff Bezos is the worst guy in the world

166
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 3: because he's the owner of the Washington Post and he's

167
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 3: letting all this happen. And this is the worst thing

168
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 3: I've ever seen, as opposed to maybe looking internally and

169
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 3: saying wow, as journalists, maybe we could have done things

170
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 3: different to make the public more interested in the product

171
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 3: that we have.

172
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: So that happens.

173
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 3: And then Saturday night, Sunday morning, this is not a joke.

174
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,239
Speaker 3: The Washington Post and one of their final sports department

175
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 3: pieces that they put out ye about the Super Bowl

176
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 3: in San Francisco, and the headline is the most relevant

177
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 3: figure in the Super Bowl is absent from this year's

178
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 3: game because to them, the most relevant figure in this

179
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 3: Super Bowl was Colin Kaepernick. Okay, a guy who hasn't

180
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 3: played in the NFL in over a decade, who was

181
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 3: run out of the league because his last twelve game

182
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 3: he went one and eleven, and of course the controversy

183
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 3: of him kneeling for the national anthem. But that's what

184
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 3: the Washington Post sports department puts out as one of

185
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 3: their final sports opinion pieces, is that the most important

186
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 3: person in this Super Bowl is Colin Kaepernick. Just the

187
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 3: idiocy and the lunacy of these journalists that think they're

188
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 3: the most important people in the entire world, and that

189
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 3: this is a travesty. That their sports department at the

190
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 3: Washington Post has been gutted and will go away.

191
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 5: It's because they put out.

192
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 3: Absolute garbage like that is as one of the worst

193
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: opinion pieces I've ever seen.

194
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: So neither he nor Jeff Bezos were present at the

195
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: staff meeting when they announced all the layoffs, and Lewis

196
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: said in his email that difficult decisions had been taken

197
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: and that now was the right time to step aside

198
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 1: after this two year transformation effort that didn't actually happen.

199
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: If you're wondering why does media seem so different than.

200
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 2: It used to be.

201
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: All you need to do is look back to nineteen

202
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: ninety six at the Telecommunicattions Act.

203
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 2: That's when deregulation happened.

204
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,199
Speaker 1: It used to be law for years and years and years,

205
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 1: sixty two years that only radio companies could only own

206
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: forty percent within a market. Gone, That law went out

207
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: the window years ago.

208
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, and there were other right now that they've changed.

209
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: The complete media landscape that in the Internet, of course.

210
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is about the hardest job in the world.

211
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 3: If you're running a newspaper today, that is about one

212
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 3: of the hardest jobs in the world. Based on the

213
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 3: structural changes and how people consume media now, the vast

214
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 3: majority of newspapers have made it even harder on themselves

215
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 3: by being completely disingenuous, completely in the bag for the

216
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 3: Democrats and the Liberals, and putting out ridiculous sports think

217
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 3: pieces like Colin Kaepernick is the most important person associated

218
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 3: with the Super Bowl in twenty twenty six.

219
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: So there is a bill that the Indiana lawmakers are

220
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: advancing at is House Bill twelve ten, and this bill

221
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: would ban cities from limiting how many single family homes

222
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 1: can be used as rental properties.

223
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 2: Okay, so you've got.

224
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: Carmel and Fishers who passed these local limits to address

225
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: these concerns, and then you've got the state lawmakers jumping

226
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: in saying no, we don't want that.

227
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, And this is a trend that is likely going

228
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 3: to continue unless something big disruptive, because we just talked

229
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 3: about this a little bit ago about how the city

230
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 3: of Indianapolis passed a billboard ordinance that restricted how billboards

231
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 3: could be used in Marion County and state stepped in.

232
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 3: The state legislature wants to step in. So now you've

233
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 3: got Carmel and Fishers that are passing regulations associated with

234
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 3: rental properties.

235
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 5: And now the state wants to step in. And you've

236
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 5: seen this too.

237
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 3: Local communities have been opposed, rightly so to data centers

238
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 3: and we've seen that opposition and we've talked about it

239
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 3: over the last year. And what was one of the

240
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 3: biggest bills lawmakers have been talking about in this session

241
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 3: is being able to override local communities and force data

242
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 3: centers into those communities when those local communities.

243
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:56,959
Speaker 5: Don't want them.

244
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 3: This is continues to be poor played by the state legislator.

245
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 3: Legislator who are by the way Republicans. And again, part

246
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 3: of the Republican core is that we believe that local

247
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 3: communities should make most decisions. Yet our state legislator is

248
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 3: trying to legislator is trying to override that at every

249
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 3: single term.

250
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're trying to put a one size fits all

251
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: over local choices, and they're ignoring the fact that the communities,

252
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: not the lawmakers in Indianapolis, are the ones that are

253
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: living with the consequences. Those are the people that are

254
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: closest to the community, and they're the ones that are trusted.

255
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: And yet the state lawmakers want to step in and

256
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 1: override their decisions with the Father knows Best attitude.

257
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we know that the local elections are where

258
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 3: your vote has the bigger impact. Look, Trump gets all

259
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 3: the headlines nationally and even locally, and Mike Brown the governor,

260
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 3: gets a ton of headlines, and our state legislators get

261
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 3: a lot of headlines and rightly so. But where your

262
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 3: vote matters the most are your local races, your local mayors,

263
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 3: your local councilmen, your life local county officials. That's where

264
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 3: the decisions that are made that affect your life on

265
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 3: a day to day basis.

266
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then you've got this state versus local control

267
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: fight because decisions were made at the local level and

268
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: then the state steps in with their own ideas.

269
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: It's frustrated, and fortunately, especially when it comes to the

270
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 3: data centers, there's been an incredible amount of pushback. But look,

271
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: the state, the Republicans and the state legislature are just

272
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 3: going to keep doing this. They're going to keep doing

273
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 3: this until there's an outcry at the local level, and

274
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 3: it's kind of sidelined them or at least giving them

275
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 3: pause right now on data centers, it needs to be

276
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 3: there with all these issues, whether it's billboards, data centers,

277
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 3: rental caps, any decisions made by these local communities should

278
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 3: be looking to honor them as best we can.

279
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: You're listening to ninety three WIBC doing a little shopping

280
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 2: right now.

281
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, what anything good on trump RX airsupra it's an inhaler.

282
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: It's on there, two hundred and one dollars. They say

283
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: that is sixty percent off. Let's see, there's a lot

284
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: of the GLP one medication on here, like the wigo

285
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: V pill is starting at one hundred and forty nine dollars.

286
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: They're saying that that is eighty nine percent off. I

287
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: don't know what a lot of these medications do, but

288
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: there is a list right now at trumprx dot gov

289
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: slash brows where they list forty three different medications. So

290
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: trump rx the new government launch website, and it lists

291
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: discounted prescription drug prices.

292
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: The site doesn't sell the drugs directly.

293
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: Instead, users are sent to the drug makers or the

294
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: pharmacy sites to fill the prescriptions. But as I mentioned,

295
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: it currently features forty three different medications with reduced prices.

296
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: Anybody with a prescription can use it. It's cash only

297
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: at this point, no insurance billing just yet. Because it's

298
00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: cash only, it usually won't go towards your insurance de

299
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: doctuple either.

300
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 5: Yees.

301
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 3: So here's a little bit of the history of how

302
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 3: pharmaceutical pricing has worked, both in this country and worldwide. So,

303
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 3: typically when a pharmaceutical is rolled out here in the

304
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 3: in this country, we've got a market based economy, so

305
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 3: they get to set the price. The pharmaceutical company gets

306
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 3: to set the price at whatever they want to set

307
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 3: it at and make their money.

308
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 5: But when that.

309
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 3: Pharmaceutical company shops that same drug to other countries around

310
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: the world, especially Europe. What Europe will say is, uh, huh,

311
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 3: we're not paying more than five dollars for this take

312
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 3: it or leave it drug company.

313
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 5: And usually the drug company is like, well five bucks

314
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 5: is better than anything.

315
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: So what's been happening for decades is that we've been

316
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 3: subsidizing the United States has been subsidizing low cost prescriptions

317
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 3: in other countries.

318
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 5: And what Trump has said, Nope, you're not going to

319
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 5: do that.

320
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 3: You're going to now give us, you know, most Favored

321
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 3: Trading Nation status. So it basically says, hey, whatever the

322
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 3: lowest price is that you're selling this for anywhere else

323
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 3: in the world, you've got to offer that to American citizens.

324
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 3: And that's part of this equation here and part of

325
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 3: what Trump is doing with trump RX.

326
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: Another one of the medications listed is insulin lips pro.

327
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 2: That seems like that's probably pretty important.

328
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 5: Sounds pretty important, Yeah, starting.

329
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: In twenty five dollars. But you've got Mark Cuban. Of course,

330
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: Mark Cuban has his own low.

331
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: Cost internet based pharmacy is probably the best way to

332
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 3: describe it.

333
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, his own medication company. And he's saying that, Yeah,

334
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: he wants to work with trump URX.

335
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 7: We'll work with trump OURX. I mean it's incredible, it's stupendous.

336
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 7: It's like the most incredible program ever. And so we're

337
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 7: excited to offer them our API so that they'll be

338
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 7: able to download our daily prices so when they go down,

339
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 7: everybody benefits.

340
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 5: Plus.

341
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 7: I like what they're doing with the MFNS because, as

342
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 7: I mentioned in my comments, our brand drugs are more

343
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 7: expensive because PBMs are involved. And with trump URX and

344
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 7: the MFN program that allows manufacturers to work around the

345
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 7: PBMs and work directly to patient. So I think it'll

346
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 7: save seniors, it'll save everybody a lot of money.

347
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 5: You think this is the future.

348
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 7: I don't think it solves the ultimate problem of how

349
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 7: the system is designed, but I think it's something that

350
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 7: we obviously agree on because that's what cost plus Drugs is.

351
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 7: We publish our entire price lists every day.

352
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 2: Your company post drug prices will full costs breakdowns.

353
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 6: How does this transparency help save patients money?

354
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 7: I mean, you know, with costplus Drugs dot Com, any

355
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 7: patient can just go look at their price for their

356
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 7: medication and so there's no uncertainty. But more importantly, by

357
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 7: seeing our markup of only fifteen percent and seeing our

358
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 7: costs that builds trust. I always tell everybody in our

359
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 7: company that what we really sell in this industry is trust,

360
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 7: and so I think that's what's really allowed us to

361
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 7: grow so quickly.

362
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: So you've got Mark Cuban, a guy who completely disagrees

363
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump politically on most everything, saying that this

364
00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: is a good thing, This is a step towards lower prices,

365
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: some more transparency when it comes to your medical care.

366
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's give some props to Mark Cuban because he

367
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 3: clearly drank the liberal kool aid and the twenty twenty

368
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 3: four election came out hard for Kamala Harris. Hated everything

369
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 3: Trump did. And look, I am assuming that you'll see

370
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 3: some Democrats come out against Trump OURX. I mean that's

371
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 3: what they do anything Trump does. I'm sure Schumer is

372
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 3: just ready to hit send on that press release that

373
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 3: says that he's opposed to lower prescription drug prices through

374
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 3: Trump our X for some reason. But let's give some

375
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 3: credit to Mark Cuban for at least being an honest

376
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: broker when it comes to this situation. He's been publicly

377
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 3: no fan of Trump, publicly supported Kamala Harris in twenty

378
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 3: twenty four. But he's more adult enough to look at

379
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 3: this situations, on this specific situation what Donald Trump is doing,

380
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 3: and we want to work well closely with him on it.

381
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: It does get patients a way to shop around to

382
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: compare prices, and it's a market driven so go where

383
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: the price is.

384
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 3: Cheapest, and everybody's trying to crack this code. Look, the

385
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 3: prescription drug industry is ripe for disruption, and the tech

386
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 3: entrepreneurs have been masters of business to disrupt and that's

387
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 3: why Mark Cuban entered this with his own pharmacy online

388
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 3: and has started to be successful at it. And now

389
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 3: he's got an ally and a similar product called trump Arx,

390
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 3: and Cuban wants his company to work closely with trump

391
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 3: Rx with the goal of just making medications more affordable

392
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 3: to the public. So it's certainly a worthy goal. But

393
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,199
Speaker 3: this is this is a tough problem to solve. There

394
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 3: are a lot of people and a very strong pharmaceutical

395
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 3: lobby that don't want lower pharmaceutical process of prices for

396
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 3: the American people. They've got a they've still got a

397
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 3: long row, a long hard fought ahead of them. But

398
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 3: Trump and Cuban sounds like they're working together on this.

399
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 1: I it's I'm sure going to be a long time

400
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: before you've got your specialty pharmacies or your black label

401
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 1: drugs that are available for comparative shopping.

402
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 2: I for one, cannot wait for that day to happen.

403
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 3: And ultimately, look, pharmaceuticals are going to be expensive research

404
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 3: and development. Everybody loves to rip on big pharma, but

405
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 3: as soon as big pharma spends you know, ten billion

406
00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 3: dollars developing a drug that saves people's lives, they've.

407
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 5: Got to be able to recoup that ten billion dollars.

408
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 3: Now, what we don't want is them price gouging and

409
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 3: creating all these astronomical, unaffordable prices for people. But you

410
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 3: can't regulate this because if we regulate too hard prescription

411
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 3: drug prices, what you'll see is pharmaceutical companies will just

412
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 3: stop spending all the billions on research and development that

413
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 3: they're doing right now. Because a lot of times, when

414
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 3: those pharmaceutical companies they spend a couple billion researching this

415
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,719
Speaker 3: drug and it turns out, yeah, that didn't work, and

416
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 3: they're out those two to three billion dollars, they've got

417
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 3: no way to recoup it other than just charging more

418
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 3: for their other drugs.

419
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: It's really easy to pick on big pharma until you're

420
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: in need of big fire.

421
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 8: Lo.

422
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 3: Look, we've had situations in our lives where there are

423
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 3: prescription medications that have, you know, either saved our lives

424
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 3: or made our lives a lot more comfortable than they

425
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 3: would have been without them. So yeah, it's easy to

426
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 3: hate on big pharma, but what they've done to be

427
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 3: able to literally save people's lives is something that can't

428
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 3: be ignored.

429
00:20:53,560 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 2: You're listening to ninety three WYBC. Imagine this. You practice

430
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 2: for years and years, you become.

431
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: Top of your game at an individual sport, you make

432
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: it to the Olympics, you do your run, you just finish.

433
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 2: You're at the bottom of the hill.

434
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,479
Speaker 1: You've got the post run interview, and that is the

435
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: moment that you decide to tell the world of all

436
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: of your indiscretions.

437
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is kind of a breaking story that's happened today.

438
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 3: This is a Norwegian biathlete and I'm gonna totally botch

439
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 3: his name, but who cares. We'll give it a shot here.

440
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 3: Sterla Holme Lagreed took home the bronze medal just this

441
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 3: morning in the men's two hundred kilometer individual biathlon race today.

442
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 5: And so you know, typically we see these.

443
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,719
Speaker 3: When they're on you know, they're skiing and they're at

444
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 3: the bottom of the hill and they just finish, and

445
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 3: there are the reporters. We want to get your initial reaction.

446
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 3: And so what does he do. He starts talking about

447
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 3: how six months ago met the love of his life,

448
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 3: the most beautiful woman in the world. But I have

449
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: to admit my mistakes and I cheated on her. And

450
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he turns the post race interview

451
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 3: into like a therapy session, like he's talking with his

452
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 3: therapist and laying on the couch and starts admitting that

453
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 3: he cheated on his girlfriend.

454
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 5: I do have a little bit of audio on this.

455
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 5: It'll be very.

456
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 3: Well, it'll be very impactful to everybody because it's in Norwegian.

457
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 9: But we'll give it a shot here to give you

458
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 9: an idea of it. So he just basically is talking

459
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 9: to this interviewer and you you kind of see the

460
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 9: look on the interviewer's faces, like, what are we doing here?

461
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: Man?

462
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 5: I thought I just I.

463
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 3: Just wanted to talk to you about winning the bronze medal,

464
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 3: And you're telling me about how you cheated on your girlfriend.

465
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 5: What you tell me you cheated on your taxes? You know,

466
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 5: did you cheat on this race? Do you do?

467
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 3: You dine and dash, You go to a restaurant, skip

468
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 3: out before paying the bill. You see some garbage laying

469
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 3: on the ground in the living room, you just kick

470
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 3: it under the cow for somebody else.

471
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: The biggest moment of your life. He was just struck

472
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 2: with guilt. He wanted to celebrate with somebody.

473
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,479
Speaker 1: She wasn't there, and he said, well, you know what,

474
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 1: it's because I cheated on her.

475
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 3: It was probably just full of emotion and just spilled

476
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 3: it all, let it all come out.

477
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 5: Actually, he wraps up the interview.

478
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 3: It's kind of interesting because when I read this whole

479
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 3: article and saw the transcript of the interview, you know,

480
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 3: your first impression is this guy's out of his mind.

481
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 5: What the heck's he doing? But he actually wraps it

482
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:29,239
Speaker 5: up in a good way.

483
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 3: He goes on to say that, look, I wanted to

484
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 3: be a good role model, and that means admitting when

485
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 3: I make mistakes. Oh wow, So you got to have

486
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 3: a little bit of love for him on that. That's

487
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,479
Speaker 3: a strong point to stand on. Maybe not at the

488
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 3: bottom of the hill right after your Olympic race. Maybe

489
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 3: you give yourself a time and I look, admitting your

490
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 3: mistakes it's a wonderful virtue.

491
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 5: We should all do it.

492
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 3: But maybe give yourself a couple of days or or

493
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 3: come back home. Not right when you've just finished your

494
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 3: event in the Olympics, with the entire war watching you

495
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 3: being interviewed and admitting that you cheated on your girlfriend.

496
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: Admit your mistake, apologize, take corrective action.

497
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 2: Did he apologize? We don't know.

498
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 5: Because he's speaking, because he's speaking Norwegian.

499
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 3: That's as far as I've gotten, But if I have,

500
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 3: maybe I'll find him on Instagram and DM He said.

501
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 2: It was the biggest mistake of his life.

502
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 5: Biggest mistake of his entire life.

503
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 3: And he needs to be a good person and a

504
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 3: good role model, and part of that is admitting when

505
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 3: you've got mistakes.

506
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 5: I applaud him for that concept.

507
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 3: I think the context and the setting could have been

508
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: a little execution, maybe a little sloppy buddy, which maybe

509
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 3: you could have said that by his his skiing race

510
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 3: too well, you know, wonderful concept and strategy going in

511
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 3: not quite the best execution, but you got the bronze.

512
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 1: Anyway, maybe after he got the medal, right, like after

513
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: he stands on the podium, he gets the medal, then

514
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: he's doing the post you know, metal interview, and that's

515
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: when he says, Okay, you know what, I have to

516
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 1: come clean with something. This has really been weighing on me,

517
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 1: not right after the race.

518
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 3: What must be great if this tends up being a

519
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 3: trend where as soon as the Olympian is done with

520
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 3: whatever advance.

521
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 5: They starts spilling stuff. You know, I've got this.

522
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 3: Terrible online shopping addiction. I've got a dozen boxes from

523
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 3: Amazon on my doorstep every single day, and I just

524
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 3: need to get it out there.

525
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, You've.

526
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: Got some American Olympians who could do that. They could

527
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: they could win their medal or finish their performance.

528
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 2: And that's it. I have something to confess.

529
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: I was an idiot when I was bashing the United

530
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:26,959
Speaker 1: States the other day.

531
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, good luck getting that sort of vote.

532
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: Well, one of them is you remember Hunter Hess He

533
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: was the guy who was representing the United States and

534
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: didn't have all of the best things to say.

535
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 8: Brings up makexed emotions to represent the us right now.

536
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 8: I think it's a little hard. There's obviously a lot

537
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 8: going on that I'm not the biggest fan of, and.

538
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 5: I think a lot of people aren't.

539
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 8: If it aligns with my moral values, I feel like

540
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 8: I'm representing it just because.

541
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, we remember this guy. Anyway, he's backpedaling. He posted

542
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: I believe it's on his Instagram account. He said, there

543
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: is so much that is great about America, but there

544
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: are always things that could be better. Oh wait a minute,

545
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 1: he said something, got some heat from it, and then decided, well,

546
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: I better change what I said.

547
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 5: Right, I might have lost a couple of spawn.

548
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 3: My sponsors are really upset about this, and so now

549
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 3: I got a backtrack.

550
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:21,479
Speaker 5: I find it really interesting.

551
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 3: I'm really glad that you played those two We did

552
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 3: these two stories back to back because they are similar

553
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 3: in some ways. In that again, Hunter has It's great

554
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 3: if you've got that opinion. Being overseas in Italy representing

555
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 3: America in the Olympics is not the time and place

556
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 3: to start spouting about all the problems you have with Donald.

557
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 5: Trump in this administration.

558
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 3: It's fine if you have that opinion, but maybe do

559
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 3: it in another context. It's fine if you want to

560
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 3: admit that you cheated on your girlfriend, maybe wait until

561
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 3: after you know you're off the slopes.

562
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 5: To do that.

563
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: So you've also got this.

564
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: He's a British American Olympic ski er. His name is

565
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: u ken Worthy.

566
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 5: Wait, I'm already confused. So is he is?

567
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 1: He?

568
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 5: Is he on Team Britain or Team USA?

569
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 2: He competes for Great Britain.

570
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: But he grew up and went to school and lives

571
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 1: in the United States.

572
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 2: Okay, and he well, he did a little something.

573
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,479
Speaker 1: I don't even know how to describe this. He had

574
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: a bad message. It was blank ice and he pete

575
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: it in the snow. There you go, That's what it was.

576
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: And he took a picture of it and he posted

577
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: it on his Instagram account and he got a lot

578
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: of heat for it.

579
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 2: People who are coming after him.

580
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 5: Shocker.

581
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 3: Hey, you got your political opinions and you spout him

582
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 3: off in the middle of the Olympics and you got

583
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 3: some blowback.

584
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 5: Color me surprised.

585
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: And then he decided to do a little confessional when

586
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: he was in his room after some events, he was

587
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: by himself, and he decided to tell you why he

588
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: did that.

589
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 10: Bear in mind everyone that like you can love the

590
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 10: US and be proud to be an American. I am,

591
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 10: and still think it can be better and still think

592
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 10: that the country can improve. And just because he loved

593
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 10: the US doesn't mean you stand with this administration and

594
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 10: stand behind their policies and their legislation and support the

595
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 10: things that they support, because I don't and I do

596
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 10: not support ice, and I think it's absolutely evil and

597
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 10: awful and terrifying.

598
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: Okay, so he's saying he doesn't support ice, ironic that

599
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 1: he's a snow skier. I'm checking to see if he's

600
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: well hydrated as eped in the snow. He had quite

601
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: good accuracy as well. Yeah, there's no way that that's real.

602
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 5: And now this I will challenge you on.

603
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 3: As men, we have spent a lifetime urinating outdoors. Many

604
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 3: of us actually enjoy it. And when it comes to

605
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 3: writing your name in the snow, we've been doing that

606
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 3: since we were five years old. So I think it's

607
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 3: entirely possible.

608
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 2: You think that's real.

609
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's entirely possible.

610
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 3: It's real because as men, we take great pride in

611
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 3: our ability to write and write in the snow like this.

612
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 2: Look, you can aim in the snow, but not in

613
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 2: the bathroom.

614
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 5: But got it all.

615
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 3: All of these athletes need to go back and learn

616
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 3: from the goat the greatest of all time when it

617
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 3: came to being an athlete and it came to being

618
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 3: a spokesman and getting your views out there. We look

619
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 3: to Michael Jordan, who, when asked about it, famously said,

620
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 3: Republicans by sneakers too.

621
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 2: That's right.

622
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,719
Speaker 3: That's why I'm not involved with politics. I could stand

623
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 3: of these athletes. I'm good not knowing their opinions on

624
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 3: all things politics. How about you just do the race

625
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 3: and we all either cheer for you, or if you're

626
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 3: from another country, we, you know, in good fun, root

627
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 3: against you, and then we all go on our merry

628
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 3: little way. I don't need to know Hunter Hess's personal

629
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 3: opinions about every specific policy this country's got, especially coming

630
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: from the Trump administration.

631
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 5: And at the end, he really he does himself no favors.

632
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 3: He does him self no favors because, as we know, sponsors,

633
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 3: whether they agree with this or not, they don't want

634
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 3: to be part of politically charged discussions. It's just not

635
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 3: good for business.

636
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 2: I'm wondering if.

637
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: The Norwegian who said that he cheated on his girlfriend

638
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: after his Olympic run.

639
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 2: If he was trying to use that to.

640
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: Be the victim of why he had a poor performance,

641
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: my mind just wasn't focused on the race.

642
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 2: I was thinking of something else.

643
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 3: Well, since I don't speak Norwegian and that's the only

644
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 3: way that he that's the language that he used to

645
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 3: do the postgame interview. I'm I'm left with context clues

646
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 3: and kind of my visual body language clues that did

647
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 3: not come across that way. It really came across. There

648
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 3: was this guy, he was emotional. It was the end

649
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 3: of his race at the Olympics and he was just

650
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 3: full of emotions and had to let them all out.

651
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: So you also had several Olympic athletes saying that their

652
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: medals are falling apart, that they've fallen off the ribbons

653
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 1: and they're breaking during the celebrations right after they've received them.

654
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 5: Yeah. American downhill skille skier Breezy, who is one of

655
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 5: the first Johns. Yeah. In fact, I think she was

656
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 5: the first.

657
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 3: Gold medal winner for the Americans in this entire Olympics,

658
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 3: said that she was celebrating.

659
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 5: And jumping in excitement, had the medal around her neck.

660
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 3: Jumping up and now an excitement and the medal separated

661
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,719
Speaker 3: from the lanyard part, and now it's broken.

662
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 1: The Olympic organizers say they are investigating. You also had

663
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: Lindsay Vaughn come out and she put out a message

664
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: about her Olympic run and how her Olympic dream did

665
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 1: not finish the way she dreamt it would, no kidding,

666
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: She said it had nothing to do with her acl

667
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 1: and she sustained a complex to be a fracture instead.

668
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 3: And you know, talked about looking toward Michael Jordan for

669
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 3: how athletes are best served by interacting with the media.

670
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 3: Lindsay Vaughn's another great one because she was asked the

671
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 3: same question about how, you know, what do you think

672
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 3: about representing the United States, And her answer was just,

673
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 3: you know, textbook perfect. I'm always proud to represent my

674
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 3: country and I can't wait to go out here and

675
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 3: compete for Team USA. And she had a really good statement.

676
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 3: There was no whining and crying on her part. She

677
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 3: obviously has been doing this for a long time and

678
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 3: it certainly shows in the way that she carries herself.

679
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 1: With the om and the difference between Summer and Winter

680
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: Olympics this woman has an observation.

681
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 11: The difference between the Summer and the Winter Olympics is

682
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 11: amazing because the Summer Olympics are like, let's go swimming, basketball, soccer, yay, gymnastics.

683
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 11: The Winter Olympics is like, if you make one wrong move,

684
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 11: you may die. You're hurling yourself off a mountain. You've

685
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 11: got knives on your feet. Like the summer triathlon is

686
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 11: like swim, run, bike. The winter by alon is here's

687
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 11: a gun. It's crazy. I love it.

688
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 3: I do kind of have a soft spot in my

689
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 3: heart for the biathlon because it's the only Olympic event

690
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 3: where you have where you're ski and then shoot a gun.

691
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 5: I love that.

692
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: We're sitting there trying to figure out when does the

693
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: timing begin on the luge because they back and forth

694
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 1: and then they go. They can't have the timing be

695
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: when they rock back and forth. There's got to be

696
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: some laser that.

697
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I looked into it.

698
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 3: So it's not when the loisure releases their hands from

699
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 3: the grips.

700
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 5: There is this invisible laser.

701
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 3: That is the starting point and that's what triggers the

702
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 3: start time on the lip.

703
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: Have you seen the videos of people acting like they're

704
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 1: doing the curling with their rumba.

705
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 5: Love it? Look Look yeah, yeah, so the rumba is.

706
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 2: It every year we're experts on curling.

707
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 3: The rumba is busy, you know, cleaning their hardwood floors

708
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 3: and they've got a swiffer out in front of it,

709
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 3: sweeping like they do in curling.

710
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 5: Look, I'm a huge curling fan.

711
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 3: If you missed yesterday's mixed doubles curling with the Americans,

712
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 3: they ended up winning the match and guaranteeing themselves a

713
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 3: metal in dramatic fashion. I've always loved curling since I was.

714
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 2: A dramatic fashion.

715
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 5: You should have seen it. They were celebrating, people were

716
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 5: fist pumping. I was excited on the living room couch.

717
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 3: Look, I've watched curling since I remember my first Winter Olympics,

718
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 3: and I love it and I watch it every four

719
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 3: years with the Winter Olympics, it's like one of my favorite.

720
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 2: When the lyrics are over, you don't care anymore.

721
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 3: But even beyond that, the way I've been watching it forever,

722
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 3: I still have no idea how the how the sport works.

723
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 5: I don't know how the scoring works. I really don't

724
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 5: know any.

725
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 3: Of the strategy but that Olympic mixed doubles duo is

726
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 3: going for the gold.

727
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,399
Speaker 5: Their match happens this afternoon, so.

728
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:20,280
Speaker 2: You'll be watching.

729
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 5: I don't know what it.

730
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 2: It's like.

731
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,720
Speaker 3: It's very relaxing for me to watch those granite blocks

732
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 3: just kind of glide down the ice and a guy

733
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 3: with the.

734
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 5: Broom brushing it in front.

735
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 3: I have no idea what the broom does, but I'm

736
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 3: dialed in and can't wait to watch this afternoon.

737
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:45,319
Speaker 2: You're listening to ninety three WYBC a lot, so two

738
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 2: of those songs.

739
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,240
Speaker 1: Are often listed as two of the top heavy metal

740
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: songs of the eighties, but you won't be seeing them live.

741
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: Twisted Sister canceling their twenty twenty sixth tour. I know

742
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: you're really upset about this, aren't you.

743
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,040
Speaker 5: Yeah. I didn't even know they were going on to

744
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 5: but you know, part.

745
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 2: Of their fiftieth anniversary reunion tour.

746
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is due to some medical issues that

747
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 3: lead singer d Snyder is having. It seems that as

748
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 3: these rockers from previous generations keep getting older and older,

749
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 3: their medical issues keep throwing up problems and their tour issues.

750
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 3: I know the Rolling Stones had an issue recently and

751
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 3: some other bands have had problems where they've either had

752
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 3: to scrap the tour or cancel some shows because all

753
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 3: these guys are getting real old. Hip replacements are starting

754
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,720
Speaker 3: to get in the way of rock and roll.

755
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 1: They retired from touring back in twenty sixteen, and they

756
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: were going to have this reunion tour and it was

757
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: supposed to be a full set of shows after about

758
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: a decade, but now it's not going to happen. As

759
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: you mentioned, d Snyder resigning from the band over health

760
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: problems arthritis surgeries, recent cardiac concerns.

761
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 3: If I told you I had two tickets to go

762
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 3: see Twisted Sister, and let's say let's say the Amphitheater

763
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 3: and White Weaver State Park, would you go with me

764
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 3: to see Twisted Sister?

765
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 5: There's something else in it for me, just the concert.

766
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,760
Speaker 5: That's it. You're buying your own drinks.

767
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,239
Speaker 1: The better play, We're not going to take it, and

768
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 1: I want to rock as the first two songs so

769
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: we can.

770
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 2: Bolt out of there.

771
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 5: Those will be the last two songs as part of

772
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 5: the encore. Are you going with me or not?

773
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 2: For showing up late?

774
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 5: Are you going?

775
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 2: Maybe? Thanks Jim, Thank you, Kevin thank you for listening.

776
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 2: It's ninety three w ib C
