1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good morning, everyone,

2
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: and welcome to your Morning Run. It's Thursday, March twenty

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: sixth I'm Ammy.

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 2: ROBOTX good on TJ Holmes, and the acting head of

5
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 2: the TSA was on Capitol Hill yesterday and these words

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 2: came out of her mouth. We are seeing the highest

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: weight times in TSA history. That is where we are

8
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 2: and the history she's talking about. Robes are saying four

9
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 2: and a half hours is almost standard at some places.

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: It continues folks at the airports and right now, Robes

11
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 2: hearing from her she was testifying yesterday was not encouraging,

12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 2: not at.

13
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: All, talking about how TSA agents are literally donating blood

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: and plasma, sleeping in their cars because they cannot afford

15
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: their lives without paychecks. That is just incredible to get

16
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: your head around that these folks, many of them are

17
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: working for free and they can't pay their bills. Four

18
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty of them have quit already. And that's

19
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: understandable given what we're seeing at the airports.

20
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: And now what we're seeing at the airports is they're

21
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 2: saying this is regular, this is normal. Now to see

22
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: some airports that have forty to fifty percent of the

23
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 2: TSA staff call out every single day. That is just

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: not possible. It's not sustainable. It is why you're seeing

25
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: all these lines. You said this again yesterday, Robes, and

26
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: we heard another official say we might have to start

27
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 2: I say, we they might have to start closing smaller airports.

28
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 2: We're not there yet, but how much longer can this go?

29
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 3: Ropes?

30
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like much. I mean, we've been watching

31
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: even the local news reports here in Atlanta, that's where

32
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 1: we are right now. And to see the line at

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 1: five am outside of the airport to just get to

34
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: the security checkpoint area, it's I've never seen that before

35
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: in my life.

36
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: Forty one days now, we're on day forty one of

37
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: this partial shutdown, and if you ain't pissed yet, you're

38
00:01:55,200 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 2: gonna love this. Congress is scheduled to go on a

39
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: two week Easter recess starting tomorrow, and there is no

40
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 2: deal that has been reached, Robes. Do you think they

41
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: would dare leave and just go home for two weeks? Yes, sweetheart,

42
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 2: there is all the town halls they gotta go speak

43
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: to that constituents.

44
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: You can't leave and say for two weeks.

45
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: Y'all just not gonna get paid and we're not gonna

46
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: work on it impossible that I'm gonna do it.

47
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: I liked the idea that someone floated that they should

48
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: shut down Reagan National Airport and Dulles and BWY so

49
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: that those are the three airports that lawmakers cannot use,

50
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: so they cannot go home and they will not reopen

51
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: travel until they come to a deal. I am so

52
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: for that. I think that is I think they should

53
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: be banned from leaving.

54
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people are on board with

55
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 2: that because right now, yes day forty one again, then

56
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: the longest one ever, the full shutdown was just a

57
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 2: few months ago and he went forty three days.

58
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 3: We're up to forty one days now.

59
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: We did have some optimism, at least we thought robes

60
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 2: so it was a back and forth that's gone going on.

61
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: But folks, as we report this morning on this Morning Ron,

62
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 2: this is while we're starting with it. The development is

63
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 2: that things have seemed to stall. They've been exchanging these

64
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 2: offers and counter offers, and the last one that was

65
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: sent on the Democratic side was received by Republicans with

66
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 2: these words, it's not serious, not even close to being

67
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 2: reeled ropes. We are back at a standstill now with

68
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,119
Speaker 2: no off ramp that we can see.

69
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, because there was hope, there was hope that they

70
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: were going to be able to fund basically everything except

71
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: for ice. So take ice and deal with funding that later.

72
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: But get TSA, get DHS funded except for that, and

73
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: that seemed like a reasonable way forward, at least in

74
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: the short term, to get these TSA workers paid, to

75
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: get these lines back down to normal. And the fact

76
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: that that couldn't even work, that they rejected each other's

77
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: offers and counter offers on that is just mind.

78
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 2: Flying recess tomorrow two weeks and you think, because rods

79
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 2: when they leave you, I'm not gonna be able to

80
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: get all of them back to come vote on whatever

81
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: the agreement is. So if this isn't done in the

82
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 2: next twenty four forty eight hours, you're telling me you're

83
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: gonna look these TSA We're going home and not going

84
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 2: to work, knowing you all are going to another two

85
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: weeks during a holiday without getting paid.

86
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: You found this quote from a labor leading fantastic. I

87
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: love it, so I think we should read it. Do

88
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: not get on a plane that a TSA officer screened

89
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: for free and fly home for Easter dinner and tell

90
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: these people that you're working on it. Bro.

91
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 3: This is now the recess thing. This is this.

92
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 2: Please you all pay these people. We were at the

93
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: airport yesterday. We didn't have any issues going out of Newark.

94
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 2: They were as pleasant as you could expect the TSA officers.

95
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 2: But the screening line was a little intense and it

96
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 2: was backed up and backed up.

97
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 3: The line.

98
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 2: Getting through the queue was one thing, but once we

99
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 2: got showed our IDs and it's time for your stuff

100
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 2: to go on the belt, that was the longest I

101
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 2: can remember, and chaotic.

102
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 3: I can remember it.

103
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: Being absolutely and even to the point where my bag

104
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: and I know how to pack and not to put

105
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: anything in it. It came into the part where it

106
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: had to be screens, so we had to wait I

107
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,039
Speaker 1: think ten minutes just for somebody to get the bag.

108
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 1: And then he looks up at the screen and says, oh,

109
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: it just malfunctioned. It has to just go back through.

110
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: What I've never had that happen. So then it had

111
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: to go all the way back through because there was

112
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: a malfunction.

113
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 2: But that guy you explained to me, he ends up

114
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 2: getting scolded by another Yes.

115
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: Yes, So he comes up to me and says, oh,

116
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: this guy, this malfunction, I'm going to have to put

117
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: it through. So he's taking my bag. This other woman,

118
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: who is a worker, yelled at him, what are you

119
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: doing over there? We need you over here. So then

120
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: I didn't even know where my bag went for a

121
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: while because he was being yelled at that he was

122
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: needed somewhere else.

123
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: We got through if we showed our IDs. We were

124
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: in one line waiting to go through and put our bag.

125
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 2: Somebody walks up, hands us some slips go over to

126
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: that line, I'm saying. And then once we got through

127
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 2: and got through the metal detector, we're standing on the

128
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 2: other side. That was nothing thing coming off the belt, nothing,

129
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 2: No bags were coming. We were just hanging out.

130
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 1: And you looked at me and said, because this was

131
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: around like eleven am, so not a busy time of travel,

132
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: And you said, thank god, it's not busy here right now,

133
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: because can you imagine what that line would have looked

134
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: like if it had been so.

135
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 3: We Wednesday at eleven am.

136
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 2: Imagine what a Thursday, even a Friday morning, a Saturday morning,

137
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 2: a holiday, all this is going on but hey, some

138
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 2: relief was offered at least robes Elon Musk riches man

139
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 2: on Planet Earth says I will step in and I

140
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 2: will pay their salaries during the shutdown, and the government

141
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: has now said no, thank you. The White House rejected

142
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 2: his generous offer. He's going to pay all the salaries now.

143
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 2: Despite the President publicly saying he liked the idea, the

144
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 2: administration later acknowledged got some legal issues here with accepting

145
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:46,799
Speaker 2: this offer.

146
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 3: It's illegal.

147
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: You can't really do it. There's no really mechanism for this. Fine,

148
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 2: but it still seemed, Hey, this guy's over here with

149
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: money and we can't even.

150
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, he still can't get the money.

151
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 1: I think they said it would cost about two hundred

152
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars. And there actually is is a

153
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: good week for him right in Vegas. That might just

154
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: be a day for him in Vegas. But yeah, exactly,

155
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: it's and and there is like a link. I didn't

156
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: realize you can press and donate to the government. But

157
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: because he has contracts, he is in the government, so

158
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: to speak. He's got his hands and certain things, so

159
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: it would just be improper and yes.

160
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 3: Illegal, right, donate to the government. Yeah, let me quick.

161
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 3: Hilarious donate to the government.

162
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: The fact that there's a link where you can donate

163
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: to the government is hilarious.

164
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 3: Right, folks.

165
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 2: We got a bunch of other things to get you

166
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 2: to on the morning Run, but this is the thing

167
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 2: we wanted to make sure we explain and tell you

168
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 2: what the latest is there because this is continuing, and

169
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 2: please keep an eye on this recess. They are planning

170
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: a recess tomorrow and going home for two weeks with

171
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: these folks. Ain't been paid in two months. Oh yeah,

172
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: they missed another paycheck.

173
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: To yeah tomorrow. They missed a second full paycheck. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,

174
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: So a full month of not being paid all right.

175
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: Next up on the Run, we're gonna talk about Iran

176
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: because it's rejected the US peace proposal that supposedly was

177
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: already accepted. According to President Trump, he sent a fifteen

178
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: point planned to Iran which laid out the US demands

179
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: for ending the war.

180
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: I forgot about that, he did say earlier on He said,

181
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 2: they have said, okay to all of our points, including

182
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: that they won't have any nuclear weapon.

183
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 3: Holy hell, I forgot about that. Ropes Okay.

184
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 2: The US continues to insist the negotiations are moving forward.

185
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 2: Iran continues to insist that no negotiations have you even

186
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: taking place. One Iranian military leader even went as far

187
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 2: as to mock the US. Make fun of the US

188
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 2: for quote, negotiating with yourselves.

189
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 3: He said, don't dress up your defeat as an agreement.

190
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: Ooh, all right, well. Press Secretary Carolyn Lovett issued this

191
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: morning to Iran from the President that he is prepared

192
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: to unleash hell if Iran doesn't agree to a deal.

193
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: And then Trump was on true social this morning firing

194
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: away saying that Irani negotiators are different and strange. I

195
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: don't even know what that means. He says they're begging

196
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: us to make a deal, which they should be doing,

197
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: and basically said they better get serious soon before it's

198
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: too late because once that happened, there is no turning

199
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: back and it won't be pretty. So more threats from

200
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: it to get a deal done that he said already

201
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: was done. It's so confusing, but apparently the negotiators are strange.

202
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, the latest on that deadly

203
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: collision Atlaguardi at airport that happened this week. Just a

204
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,199
Speaker 1: couple of passengers, thankfully remain in the hospital cruise or

205
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: working to remove the wreckage from the runway.

206
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: You'll remember the pilot and copilot were killed when that

207
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 2: Air Canada flight, upon landing, rammed into an emergency vehicle

208
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 2: that was crossing the runway. At least forty people were

209
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 2: initially taken to the hospital for treatment, all but a few,

210
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 2: we are told as of this morning, as of this

211
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 2: recording have been released.

212
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: And they're hoping to have that runway reopened by tomorrow

213
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: as they continue to remove the wreckage from the plane.

214
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 2: Continuing on the run here now, and social media giants

215
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 2: are taking a beating this week. Meta and YouTube have

216
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 2: now been found liable for business practices that were harmful

217
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: to kids by getting them addicted to their products.

218
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: A jury awarded six million dollars in damages to a

219
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: woman who claimed she became addicted to YouTube and Instagram

220
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: at a young age, which she said led to her

221
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: depression and suicidal thoughts. So, look, this is a big

222
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: deal because this is going to set precedent for so

223
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: many other lawsuits that are out there, and all eyes

224
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: were on this jury to see what they would do.

225
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: Google is going to appeal, Meta is looking at its

226
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: options as well. But this is going to have far

227
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: reaching effects.

228
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 2: And this is separate from the one in New Mexico

229
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: that the jury awarded three hundred and seventy five million

230
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: dollars the day before. That one had to do with

231
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: meta yes at the time, so the it's just beginning. Wow,

232
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 2: this is going to change social media. Yeah, it will

233
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: change our conversations around social media, and it is going

234
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 2: to change the pockets of a bunch of pretty big companies.

235
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: Continue on the run here Now, average cost of a

236
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 2: galln of gas gone up about a dollar since the

237
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 2: war began. We told you this. It's at three ninety eight.

238
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: But because of that, the cost of sending mail at

239
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 2: the post office is going.

240
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 3: Up as well.

241
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Postal Service announced yesterday it's going to temporarily

242
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: add a fuel surcharge to offset the rise fuel costs. So,

243
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: pending approval, there will be an eight percent additional charge

244
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: on certain products. Priority mail is among them.

245
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 2: Your stamp is not going to make a difference, but

246
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 2: the other products we're talking about now, ro this got me.

247
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 2: They said this was going to be temporary. It's scheduled

248
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: to start April twenty six, So what would temporary mean

249
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: to you, hey, they're going to start at April twenty six, temporary,

250
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 2: what would it be maybe like six weeks through the

251
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 2: summer at the lady, what does this mean that going

252
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: through January of twenty twenty seven?

253
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: This sounds like a money grab?

254
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 3: Damn that is not in the script I wrote. By

255
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 3: the way, people she had lived out.

256
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: There all right. Next up on the run, the Trump administration,

257
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: my goodness, taken another shot at criminally prosecuting New York

258
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: Attorney General Letitia James.

259
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, federal housing official has now referred James to the

260
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: Department of Justice where possible fraud. This is a criminal referral,

261
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 2: as they say, she's accused of falsifying information on a

262
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 2: homeowner's insurance application.

263
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 1: This time I was going to ask, you've got it

264
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: in here? That would be at least the third time.

265
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: Now the Trump DOJ has gone after James. She has

266
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: denied wrongdoing, and her attorney has called this latest attempt

267
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: a desperate tactic.

268
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: And a reminder she was the one that went after

269
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 2: the president the civil case they actually wanted. It ended

270
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 2: up being overturned, but he is never gonna let it

271
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 2: go go. Continue on the run here now, the last

272
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: person believed to see Jeffrey Epstein alive. Is going to

273
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 2: be a no show on Capitol Hill today.

274
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 1: That's right. Tovin Nole was scheduled to answer questions from

275
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: the House Oversight Committee, it's been looking into the Epstein investigation,

276
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: but her attorney said she's declining that invitation, so the

277
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: committee will now have to subpoena her.

278
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was on duty at the jail in twenty

279
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 2: nineteen the night Epstein died by suicide. Now they have

280
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 2: specific questions they have for her robes. We detailed all

281
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: of these in a pretty what was this a cynical

282
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 2: back and forth?

283
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 3: We had that episode.

284
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: About you, I was bad copy, you were a good

285
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: cap whatever. We had competing opinions about why and how much.

286
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: No will be able to provide insight to the committee.

287
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: But I'm certainly very interested in her answers to several questions,

288
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: including Internet searches she made in the hours before Epstein's death,

289
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 1: some a strange deposit she received ten days before his death,

290
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: and then this video that has an orange blob that

291
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: could show somebody heading up towards Epstein's jail cell around

292
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: ten to fifty PM that evening, so all eyes will

293
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: be on that when her testimony does happen, because she

294
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: will be compelled to testify and.

295
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 3: It'll be kind. All these are clothes behind clothes, yes, yes,

296
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 3: but we look forward to the pictures from We look

297
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 3: forward to the pictures.

298
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 2: Roberts inside, We'll stay with us here on this Thursday

299
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 2: Morning run when we come back. We just listened to

300
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: Savannah Guthrie do her first interview since her mom's abduction.

301
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 2: We will tell you the one line, the one moment

302
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 2: that stood out that is absolutely heartbreaking. Also, as we

303
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 2: wrap up the run, we heard from Stephen Colbert. We

304
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 2: know his show is going to be wrapping up here

305
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: just a couple of months. He already has another gig

306
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 2: lined up and we did not see this one coming.

307
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: Welcome back to this Thursday morning run, and we just

308
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: heard the first part of a major interview that Savannah

309
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: Guthrie did with Hotocopy. She sat down with her and

310
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: we heard from her for the first time, talk about

311
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: what it was like in the moments finding out that

312
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: her mom was missing, what she and her three siblings

313
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: have been going through over these past fifty four days.

314
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: But as you mentioned before the break the most heartbreaking

315
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: part of this interview, and I can't imagine anyone made

316
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: it through that without crying. Talking about the guilt she

317
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: feels because she believes that she is the reason why

318
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: her mom was kidnapped.

319
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 2: She actually said the words I'm sorry mommy, right we

320
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 2: That's something I guess Robie hadn't focused on enough in

321
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 2: this whole situation. But to think that because of you

322
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: and your position and your career and what you do,

323
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: your mom is dead, that somebody, because of you, you

324
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: put your mom in harm's way. Now, she gave a

325
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: lot of We heard a lot of details about how

326
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 2: she first got word about it and all these things.

327
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: We detail that in another episode that's posted and going

328
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: to be posted right after this one on our feed,

329
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: so if you want more of the details, that will

330
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 2: be up there for you to see. But Ropes, that

331
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 2: was the moment, and to hear her, it was tough.

332
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: She said, I'm sorry to my kids, to my nephew,

333
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: to my sister, to my brother. She went through and

334
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 2: apologized to everybody for it, and that was very difficult

335
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 2: to see. But I give them today's show, that whole

336
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: team credit for how they handled this as delicately and

337
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 2: quite frankly professionally.

338
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 1: Yes, expect the exact amount of support she needs, and

339
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: certainly getting the word out again. Just her main goal

340
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: in doing the interview was to keep word of her

341
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: mother's disappearance a lot, and to compel or to at

342
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: least try and appeal to the humanity of whoever knows

343
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: something about what happened to her, to please please, please

344
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: give them that piece, because she said they will not

345
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: rest until they know what happened to their mom. All right,

346
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: for the final leg of our run, Stephen Colbert, we know,

347
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: is leaving the Late Show in May, but he's already

348
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 1: lined up a new gig. The comedian announced he's been

349
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,480

350
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: Peter Jackson.

351
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 3: It's not just any movie.

352
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm writing a script, you know, but this

353
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 2: is other level, yes, Peter Jackson, that guy, Lord of

354
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 2: the Rings, Prito Jackson. The movie is going to be

355
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 2: based on a six early chapter, six early chapters of

356
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 2: the trilogy that were mostly left out of the original movies.

357
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 2: Colbert is a super fan of the novels and the movies,

358
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 2: and this passion project began with Jackson and his son

359
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 2: several years ago.

360
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that cool. He's working alongside his son, so

361
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: you know what, this is going to be a very

362
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: cool next move for him. Colbert said he didn't think

363
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: he would have time to write the movie, but then

364
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: he joked, turns out, I'm gonna be free starting this summer.

365
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 4: I mean, they've been like talking about this for a

366
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 4: couple of years, and look when one door closes, another

367
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 4: one opens, and all of a sudden, now he's got

368
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 4: nothing butt time. So it's gonna be called Shadow of

369
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 4: the Past, and it will come after I guess there

370
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,320

Speaker 1: all right, looking forward to it all All right, On

375
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 1: this Friday Eve, we have our quote of the day

376
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: for you. Loved this one, short and sweet, but I

377
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,880
Speaker 1: thought still powerful. Everything in life is a win if

378
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: your goal is to experience.

379
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 2: Hmm, yeah, okay, it didn't speak to you. Well, I

380
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 2: get it. It's just a little two pie in sky

381
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 2: for me. That's I get it. Yes, So going through life,

382
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 2: have what's happening today. But hey, Arkansas plays in the

383
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 2: NCAA Tournament tonight in the sweet sixteen against Arizona. If

384
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 2: we lose that game, I'm not going to say, Wow,

385
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 2: we really won because we had a great experience through

386
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 2: the tournament.

387
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 3: No, we lost. That's not what I'm going to say.

388
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,360
Speaker 2: I get what you're saying. It should not the outcome

389
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 2: should not be the goal. We talk about this all

390
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: the time.

391
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, And I also look at this is

392
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: something to remind myself when things aren't going my way

393
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,360
Speaker 1: or I'm frustrated. I if I just say I'm experiencing

394
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: something that I can learn from. And I know that

395
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 1: sounds yes, pie in the sky. But when you can

396
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 1: reshape your attitudes towards something when it's happening as it's

397
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: it does make a big difference. So everything in life

398
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: is a win if your goal is to experience. And

399
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,000
