Speaker 3: That's why you got pep for it's Friday. Hey that folks,

7
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,240
Speaker 3: I'm TJ Holmes. I don't have the same pep.

8
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: I know you like a pep in your step on

9
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: a Monday, Monday. I'm a Friday girl.

10
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 2: That's cool.

11
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 3: What was your sleep score or ring said?

12
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: What?

13
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 2: Oh, it's pretty good. That's awesome.

14
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 3: I don't don't be embarrassed that you got good sleep

15
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 3: I had. I want you to get good sleep.

16
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 2: Okay, good.

17
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: We've been going to bed earlier and that certainly helped.

18
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: And so my sleep score is eighty four today. It's

19
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: amazing how many hours I got.

20
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 2: Six hours and twenty eight minutes of sleep.

21
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 3: That combined with the fact that it's Friday, and that's

22
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 3: where you hear that pep in that step folks. But

23
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 3: wherever you are, we hope you are having a good one.

24
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 3: There's been a long week, rough week of a pretty

25
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: terrible headlines. We want to at least let you know

26
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 3: We're going to keep things a little looser today, and

27
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: you know what, after the break is gonna be nothing

28
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 3: but news that makes you smile. Good, So we're just

29
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 3: gonna reserve that last block just with things that'll make

30
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 3: you smile.

31
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 2: We could all use that.

32
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: I know we've been saying it a lot, but my god,

33
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,199
Speaker 1: the last few months even have just been NonStop.

34
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 3: It has. So we'll get your caught up on a

35
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 3: certainly some major headlines here on this Friday and get

36
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 3: you goingto the weekend. But yes, on the run this morning,

37
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 3: we are gonna be making stops at the White House

38
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 3: in Minneapolis, as well as Birmingham, Alabama, Columbus, Ohio, Dayton, Ohio, Greenville,

39
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 3: North Carolina, and Tulsa, Oklahoma very particular reason. Some of

40
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 3: those cities might sound like they all go together for

41
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 3: a particular reason. It'll make sense here shortly.

42
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: It at least unites us all those of us who

43
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: are of a certain well, we like a certain type

44
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: of activity.

45
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 2: We'll get into that in just a bit.

46
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: But first up, that could have gone a lot of

47
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 3: different directions.

48
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, maybe those two Lucivity's.

49
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: My apologies, all right, First up, we're gonna head to Minneapolis.

50
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: We have been heading to Minneapoli quite a bit this week.

51
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, somebody or a group of people, it sounds like,

52
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: stole the FBI's stuff. Probably not a good time or

53
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: place to be stealing things from the FBI. And guess what,

54
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: the FBI really really wants their stuff back.

55
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder what it was worth, because they're offering

56
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: a one hundred thousand dollars reward for information leading to

57
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 3: whomever vandalized several FBI vehicles and stole the equipment. And

58
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 3: then yes, they do want the equipment back. It happened

59
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: on Wednesday night in the north part of nor of Minneapolis,

60
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 3: where they have been having some problems with. This is

61
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 3: a part of the clashes. We have seen some vandalism.

62
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 3: We have seen federal vehicles attacked, spray painted things on,

63
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 3: classes broken out, and now possibly things stolen. But this

64
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 3: adds to really a bit of the chaos on the streets.

65
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, the FBI says dozens of protesters smashed into their

66
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: vehicles too, unmarked FBI vehicles and took out some large

67
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: lock box. So whatever is inside that container, we don't know,

68
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: but it's coveted, and certainly the clashes continued overnight.

69
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 2: We've been sharing.

70
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: But now that there have been two shootings, of course,

71
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: one fatal in a span of seven eight days. Yes,

72
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: the rioting, I shouldn't say rioting, but the protesting has continued,

73
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: and certainly they have been in moments heated, throwing things

74
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: at officers, fireworks, rocks, ice, snow, the ice workers putting

75
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: tear gas out into the crowds to disperse them. It's

76
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 1: just been a messy, messy scene. And there's this viral

77
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: video now out there of Aleah Rahman being forcibly taken

78
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,119
Speaker 1: from her vehicle. She says she was on her way

79
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: to a doctor's appointment for a traumatic brain injury and

80
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: she was yanked out of her car. And when you

81
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: see how she was removed and how she was forcibly removed,

82
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: it is disturbing to watch.

83
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: Well, a lot of those scenes are playing out on

84
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 3: social media right now. Meanwhile, the president on social media

85
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 3: as well, he did threaten to invoke the Insurrection Act,

86
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 3: which would allow him to send in troops to essentially

87
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 3: stop any type of uprising and insurrection if you will.

88
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: It has been used by presidents in the past but

89
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 3: not quite in this type of manner. Also of note,

90
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 3: Governor Tim Waltz did put out a statement he's been

91
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: calling for calm there but says he and the President

92
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 3: have not spoken. Says he's reached out but hasn't heard back,

93
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 3: and that's where we are.

94
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: Who That's tough, all right. We'll keep you updated on

95
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: that situation throughout the day. But next up on the

96
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: run the United States versus Iran, and it played out

97
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: in New York. The envoys for each country faced off

98
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: in a UN Security Council meeting.

99
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,239
Speaker 2: The US ambassador made it very clear when.

100
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: He addressed to the crowd there all options are on

101
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: the table, he said, to stop the slaughter.

102
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 3: Iran's guy was there also and his response was whatever

103
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 3: for the most part, but saying the US is now

104
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 3: using quote hollow pretext of concern for Iranian people. They

105
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 3: say they are using that to use the people essentially

106
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 3: right now for justification for bombing Roan demonstrations ringwhile have

107
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: calmed on the streets now, you can say they've just

108
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 3: slowed down, or you can say the regime has done

109
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: what it planned to do, which was to quiet people.

110
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 3: But estimates right now from human rights groups say about

111
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 3: twenty seven hundred people have died in those demonstrations, all right,

112
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 3: next up.

113
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: On the run.

114
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we definitely pretty much everybody saw this one coming.

115
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: We're talking about the Nobel Peace Prize.

116
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 1: It has now been officially handed over to President Trump

117
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: from Maria Coarina Machado, of course, the actual Nobel Laureate.

118
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: She won the award just a few months ago, dedicated

119
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: it to President Trump almost immediately, but now officially handed

120
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: it over in a framed plaque gorgeous fit for the

121
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: White House, and the White House took a picture of

122
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: that presentation, Yes.

123
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: And the picture came out some hours after that meeting.

124
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 3: This was what the meeting in large part was about,

125
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 3: but also about her making her case, pitching herself to

126
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 3: be the leader of Venezuela, and she would probably need

127
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 3: President Trump's support. She was, of course, the opposition leader

128
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 3: who has been in hiding really for the past year,

129
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 3: but she has come out now since Maduro has well

130
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: got got by the US. She left the White House.

131
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 3: She didn't leave empty handed. Don't know what was in

132
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 3: the bag, but it was a Donald Trump swag bag.

133
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: Don't know what was in it. A reminder, you can't

134
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: just give away the prize. You can give away the

135
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 3: physical medal, but he is not officially the Nobel Prize

136
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 3: Laureate for last Yes.

137
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: He just is in possession of the actual prize, very

138
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: happy to have it. He had a big old grin

139
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: on his face. We talk all about it, if you

140
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: want to check it out in the episode before this,

141
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: when we go into all the at some points humorous

142
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: details of what happened there at the White House yesterday

143
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: when Machado handed over her prized possession.

144
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: What do you think is in that swag bag?

145
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 3: I don't know, very curious. It has his signature on

146
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 3: a very simple bag, but it Yeah, I don't know

147
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 3: what you would get leaving.

148
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 2: I was trying to think, like.

149
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 3: Hopefully something better than that. But if it was better

150
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 3: than that, it wouldn't be in a swag back. Probably

151
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 3: that's true. All right, continue on the run here now.

152
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 3: And this is another mess with this gambling and sports.

153
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 3: Another major scandal going on here, this one involved mostly

154
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 3: college players. Is a major point shaving scandal that involved

155
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 3: at least seventeen college teams dozens of games over two seasons.

156
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 3: None in the current season, however, but at least twenty

157
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 3: six people have been arrested and died. At twenty of

158
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 3: them are current or former players. A couple of them

159
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 3: play currently this season on teams and have been playing

160
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 3: in the past week. One of them was a preseason

161
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 3: Conference player of the Year for Conference USA Kennesaw State.

162
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 3: He's averaging twenty a game. This is a mess, and

163
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 3: they are accused in this scandal of essentially fixers finding

164
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 3: the right athletes, offering college kids ten to thirty grand

165
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 3: to underperform and then better were making millions off of

166
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 3: these games.

167
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: That is so disappointing.

168
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 3: Integrity the game. You can't trust what you're seeing being

169
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 3: the real deal. That's the biggest problem sports will ever have.

170
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: And what like, I'm just trying to get in the heads.

171
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: I understand ten twenty thirty thousand is life changing for

172
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: some of these kids, who you know, might not be

173
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: able to pay off their college loans, et cetera. But

174
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: still that is so deeply disturbing. All right, next up

175
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: on the run, here's twenty dollars for your trouble. Verizon

176
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: has announced it's going to give US customers twenty bucks

177
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: to make up for that massive service outage this week,

178
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: so you can log on to your app to redeem.

179
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: I actually just tried, but well, this is the irony

180
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: of all ironies with my Verizon.

181
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 2: I've always had this issue.

182
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: When I try to log onto my Verizon app, it

183
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: tries to send me a code, you know, a security code,

184
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 1: but my phone won't recognize it coming from Verizon. It

185
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: considers it a threat, and so I can't get the

186
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,599
Speaker 1: security code, so I can't log into the app.

187
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 2: So I might not get my twenty bucks.

188
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 3: Lord have mercy?

189
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 2: Does anyone else have these problems?

190
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 3: Probably so it's never easy. They make it easy to

191
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 3: give the money. Just send every customer let it show

192
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 3: up on their next bill. Twenty dollars is off of it.

193
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 2: I love it, but.

194
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 3: You do it this way, you're gonna save money because

195
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 3: not everybody's gonna do it. What is the percentage of

196
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 3: people who are gonna get that twenty dollars? Come on, Verizon,

197
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 3: we gave you credit by saying we're sorry we let

198
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 3: you down, but come on, make a better gest. Don't

199
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 3: make me have to work to get the reward for

200
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 3: you screwing up.

201
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's always some hurdle you have to cross.

202
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 1: It kils impossible and you're like twenty bucks whatever, I

203
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: don't care, and you let it go.

204
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: And that's what Verizon is hoping.

205
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: Here's a twenty Yeah, I'm guessing, well, I bet you

206
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: fifteen percent of people actually get that twenty bus.

207
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 2: That's my guess. Ohbody's gonna go get it. You think

208
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: it's lower, yes, so it's gonna take.

209
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 3: The time unless you use the app already. Okay, it's

210
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 3: twenty dollars. Okay, fine, it's a gesture, do you think.

211
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 3: All right, stay here, folks. Coming up on this morning run,

212

Speaker 2: But his music was phenomenal.

236
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 3: This is the late night talking that was that one.

237
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, that was so good.

238
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 3: That stuff still read today. You put that on, right,

239
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 3: we have that buttermelon album, Yeah, oh that album? Yes,

240
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 3: so yeah, it's good to know he is coming back.

241
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: Also making a comeback right now. Something I didn't even

242
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 3: know was around soup drops. So are you all familiar with

243
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 3: this stuff? Progressive? Yes. The soup makers apparently started the

244
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 3: last year at this time put out soup drops, which

245
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,119
Speaker 3: are robes. They are little they look like little candy

246
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 3: pieces of candy, except they taste like soup.

247
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: Is that you just yes? And the idea is Look,

248
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 2: it's pretty brilliant of them.

249
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: I think we have seen massive headlines about flu season

250
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: being the worst it's been in years, and this is

251
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: the time when people get cold, they get flus.

252
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 2: And so what do you do You want soup?

253
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: Right, you also probably need a cough drop, So why

254
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: not combine the two.

255
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 2: That is what they have decided.

256
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: Well, they decided last year chicken noodle soup drops last year?

257
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 3: Did I seem right? They claim that it warms, they

258
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 3: warm up in your mouth. Yes, come on, chicken noodle soup. Well,

259
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 3: they were such a hit apparently last year, so they're

260
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 3: bringing it back this year. And they have some new

261
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 3: even more delicious sounding flavors.

262
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,719
Speaker 2: I mean for people who love soup like I do.

263
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: They have tomato basil drops now this year, and beef

264
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: pot rests dropped. They all went on sale yesterday, and yes,

265
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: it warms in your mouth, and they say the supplies

266
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: are limited, so they're available until they're not. It's pretty

267
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: brilliant marketing. I actually would buy some just to see

268
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: what they taste like.

269
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 3: Okay, And here is the part what they went on

270
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 3: sale yesterday, And this is the part I intentionally withheld

271
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 3: from you they're sold out. Oh no, they went on

272
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 3: sale yesterday today you cannot get them. They are sold out,

273
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 3: but they are going to do another drop next Thursday,

274
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 3: twenty second.

275
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 2: So we have to get some. Why because I want

276
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 2: to know what they taste like.

277
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: Look, if you had to pick between chicken noodle soup drops,

278
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: tomato basil drops, or beef pot roast drops, which one

279
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: would you pay?

280
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 3: Were there's original that it had to be a chicken

281
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: tomato be nough. Oh all of it sounds awful.

282
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: I think I'd have to try the original chicken noodle Soupay.

283
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 2: I'd be willing to try them all.

284
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 3: Though, of course you would, you know, for research purposes,

285
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 3: But not until next Thursday that'll be available again. But yeah,

286
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 3: they're sold out within twenty four hours of them going

00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 3: here we are You.

288
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: Can't shows you how smart they are. Amazing branding and

289
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: you know it's that limited supply thing. It always gets folks.

290
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: They just have to try it. They have to have

291
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: one that's smart.

292
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 3: All right. Finally on the run here, Yes, National championship

293
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 3: is on Monday between Indiana and Miami. However, neither one

294
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: of those areas where those schools are are in the

295
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 3: top ten and rankings in terms of football watching.

296
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 2: I wonder what that will do to the ratings for

297
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 2: the day.

298
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: Isn't that You know what you say, Well, everybody's gonna

299
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 3: West National Championship. But you make a very good point.

300
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 3: You make a very very good point. But yes, Miami

301
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 3: in Indiana. But the list is out. Nielsen's puts out

302
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 3: this list every year of the top ten markets of

303
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 3: the most college football watching and this is as obvious

304
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 3: as it gets.

305
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: Number one. No shocker here, Birmingham.

306
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: You've got Alabama and Auburn in the market, die hard

307
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: SEC fan based football franchises.

308
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: That makes perfect sense.

309
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 3: And I have to give you all credit the Ohio State.

310
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 3: I usually get annoy you when they want everybody to

311
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 3: say the Ohio, but in this one, this says something

312
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 3: that the next two cities are in Ohio, Columbus and

313
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 3: Day next on the list for the top for football wise.

314
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 2: I don't know that I would have guessed that, but

315
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 2: it does make sense.

316
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 3: We guess the next one.

317
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have guessed this one either.

318
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: The next most the biggest college football city Greenville, Spartanburg

319
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: Aashville in South Carolina. And they say that's because of Clemson.

320
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: But Clemson has not been a you know, they haven't

321
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: had a good season in a.

322
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: While, you know what.

323
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 3: But there when they have them, they have South Carolina.

324
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 3: You actually don't have a lot of options, that is true.

325
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 3: And they look, they've won national championship within the past

326
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 3: decade or so.

327
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 2: They been yes, yes, yes, all right. The next one.

328
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: Wouldn't have guessed this one either, Tulsa because of Oklahoma

329
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: and Oklahoma State.

330
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 3: They're die hard in that state about their fledge football

331
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 3: between those two teams, and then Oklahoma City's next. Atlanta

332
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 3: makes sense given Georgia and Georgia Tech are there, and

333
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 3: then Knoxville, New Orleans makes sense with LSU, and then Jacksonville,

334
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 3: Florida and Georgia are right there, so that makes sense.

335
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 3: It does make sense.

336
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: I would have thought Atlanta would have been higher, though.

337
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 2: That's a little shocking to me just because Georgia. There's

338
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 2: so much football fever in that state.

339
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: And maybe I'm just jaded because are subjective because I

340
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: live there and just know how big of a deal

341
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: everyone's got Georgia stickers.

342
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, Athens feels like football fever. Atlanta feels like I'm

343
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 3: in a metropolitan area with people from all over the

344
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 3: places who want to see what the hawks are doing,

345
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 3: what the falcons are doing, or what the braves are doing,

346
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 3: and everything else. Oh yes, all right, before we let

347
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 3: you go here, folks, we'd like for you to consider

348
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 3: it is our quote of the day. I'll go with this, Robes.

349
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 3: Even if you made mistakes, you are far ahead of

350
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 3: those who aren't even trying.

351
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: I love that.

352
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 3: Keep that in mind, right we think we're not getting someone,

353
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 3: you are always keep moving. You're always ahead, and staying

354
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 3: ahead of somebody just stagnation does not work. And a mistake, Man,

355
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 3: a mistake is so valuable. We've been going through this

356
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 3: here on our podcast. I have made so many mistakes

357
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 3: in trying to under stand the tech of all this

358
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 3: we're doing. But man, I'm picking up skills and I'm

359
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 3: getting ahead, and wish I'd have done this years and

360
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 3: years and years ago.

361
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 2: You instead of making mistake, you're learning. And you only

362
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 2: learn when you mess up.

363
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: You only grow when you're uncomfortable, because you figure out

364
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: how to make things better or different when you've made

365
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: a mistake or when there's a problem. And that's how

366
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: if you can look at life through that lens. It

367
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: does help at least with motivation and my God, trying

368
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: and making mistakes, that's so valuable, valuable, And yet and

369
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: I think the fear of making mistake, yeah, hold so

370
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: many people back. And I know that I can speak

371
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 1: to that. In my early days, I was so afraid

372
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: of messing up. I was so afraid of getting it wrong,

373
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 1: of saying the wrong thing, or saying it not exactly

374
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: the way I was supposed to. It hindered me. And

375
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: like that is one of the beautiful things about getting older.

376
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: You do feel this freedom and this knowledge based on experience.

377
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: It making mistakes is actually a good thing.

378
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 3: So folks take that with you over the weekend, on

379
