Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio podcast. Good
Speaker 1: morning everyone, It's Wednesday, March twenty sixth. Welcome to Morning
Speaker 1: Run now guaranteed available by six thirty am Eastern Time,
Speaker 1: every single day, Monday through Friday. I made Robots and.
Speaker 2: I'm TJ Holmes. Megan Markle is, what is she doing
Speaker 2: this morning on my show? What does she make?
Speaker 1: It looks like she's making salt Mason jars.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's beautiful, It's beauty gorgeous. My infatuation with the
Speaker 2: show continues with love Megan, is that what it's called.
Speaker 1: She's got fresh herbs and it just makes you want
Speaker 1: to start nesting right.
Speaker 2: I've been in a trance with this show. People have
Speaker 2: had all kinds of things to say about it, but
Speaker 2: it is my new favorite obsession every morning from this podcast.
Speaker 1: I want a garden.
Speaker 2: I do too. Now, I've never wanted a garden before
Speaker 2: making a Riday. Hey, there's your Megan Markel update on
Speaker 2: this day, folks. But we need to get going on
Speaker 2: this run. There's a lot to get to, including this.
Speaker 2: The US says there is now a ceasepire deal. Russia
Speaker 2: immediately says slow down.
Speaker 1: Also this Morning we know exactly who to blame for
Speaker 1: that embarrassing group Tech's national security blunder, but Trump says
Speaker 1: it's all good.
Speaker 2: Plus a congresswoman calls the governor of Texas who uses
Speaker 2: a wheelchair governor hot wheels, and she's actually defending the
Speaker 2: remark this morning.
Speaker 1: Also on this morning's Ron, the pope's personal nurse could
Speaker 1: actually be the guardian angel responsible for him still being alive.
Speaker 1: And where is your birth certificate? Well you might need
Speaker 1: it to vote.
Speaker 2: Plus this morning, Trump has gone missing from the Colorado
Speaker 2: State Capitol. Tesla could use some good news. It won't
Speaker 2: be found. In this podcast, TikTok removes a disturbing filter,
Speaker 2: and a thief finally takes an expensive bathroom break, and yes,
Speaker 2: robes police, we're there to clean up.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a promised update that we will have for
Speaker 1: you that, oh I'm very much looking forward to. But
Speaker 1: we begin our run overseas this morning, where Russia and
Speaker 1: you have agreed to a limited ceasefire, at least we
Speaker 1: think they have.
Speaker 2: Okay, So what happened was the US announced yesterday that
Speaker 2: the two sides were both on board with a deal
Speaker 2: that calls for the end to military action in the
Speaker 2: Black Sea, and the two countries would no longer attack
Speaker 2: each other's energy infrastructure. Yes, that's a very limited ceasefire,
Speaker 2: but it's something, and it's the first such ceasfire deal
Speaker 2: of any kind during this three year war.
Speaker 1: The deal comes after US officials had separate talks on
Speaker 1: back to back days with Russian and Ukrainian officials in
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, and it represents a significant step in the
Speaker 1: right direction, right eh.
Speaker 2: Hold on, Yeah, Russia came out later in the day
Speaker 2: and said, sure, we'll go along with the seasfire, but
Speaker 2: only after the US agrees to lift certain sanctions on
Speaker 2: banks and exports. That seemed to catch everybody off guard.
Speaker 2: That apparently wasn't a part of the initial deal. So
Speaker 2: after they made the deal, it seems they've classic case
Speaker 2: here of moving the goal post. So President Trump later
Speaker 2: said that, okay, the US is going to look into
Speaker 2: the Kremlin's conditions.
Speaker 1: Ukrainian President Zelenski's words, however, not of the minced variety.
Speaker 1: Here's what Zelensky had to say about this development. The
Speaker 1: Kremlin is lying again, claiming that the Black Sea ceasefire
Speaker 1: supposedly depends on sanctions Moscow always lies.
Speaker 2: Okay, so now where are we. The seafire was supposed
Speaker 2: to go into effect immediately yesterday, but really, who knows
Speaker 2: at this point if Russia is going to adhere to
Speaker 2: what they seem to have agreed to. Now we talk
Speaker 2: about the Black Sea all the time. Why is this significant.
Speaker 2: It's a significant shipping route there for Ukraine, So it's
Speaker 2: very important for their infrastructure, very important for their finances
Speaker 2: in that country. It's a little west of Russia, just
Speaker 2: south of Ukraine if you try to picture that on
Speaker 2: a map. But it's a big deal. So this was
Speaker 2: supposed to be a big deal. Robes And now immediately
Speaker 2: after we're like, wow, there's a ceasefire. Oh there's not.
Speaker 1: We'll see what today brinks.
Speaker 2: How about that? It'll be something new, all right?
Speaker 1: Next up on the run and the big story still brewing.
Speaker 1: Back here at home. President Trump says his national security
Speaker 1: advisor has learned his lesson, don't add random reporters to
Speaker 1: a text chain with the national security team when you're
Speaker 1: discussing war plans.
Speaker 2: I thought that might have been national security one oh one,
Speaker 2: but that's just me. But yeah, that's the lesson he
Speaker 2: learned after this jaw dropping national security blunder that had
Speaker 2: the White House doing damage control most of the day. Yesterday,
Speaker 2: National Security Advisor Mike Waltz says he is taking full
Speaker 2: responsibility for inadvertently adding the editor in chief of the
Speaker 2: Atlantic to a group tex chain that included the vice presidents,
Speaker 2: the Secretary of Defense, among others, in which they were
Speaker 2: yes in fact, discussing military plans.
Speaker 1: Administration officials and the President himself insist that there was
Speaker 1: no classified information in that text chain, but Democrats pounced,
Speaker 1: demanding answers for the White House and hinting at a
Speaker 1: full investigation. I believe it was the New York Times
Speaker 1: who had a clever headline that actually represents what I
Speaker 1: have said before that most of us can't stand in
Speaker 1: any type of an argument with anyone that the President attacked, defended,
Speaker 1: and deflected. And that is what has been happening, as
Speaker 1: we see the finger pointing somehow being turned on the
Speaker 1: reporter himself and his credibility and the Atlantic's credibility all
Speaker 1: being swept up in this in a way of deflecting
Speaker 1: what actually really happened. But when you hear from Republican lawmakers,
Speaker 1: everyone has pretty much just said, Yeah, this was a
Speaker 1: big mistake. Was defend Well, I think it's a defend
Speaker 1: deflect attack, is what the headline said. Now I reverse
Speaker 1: the order.
Speaker 2: I understand your argument style. Now will we fight? It
Speaker 2: makes more sense to me.
Speaker 1: We'll continue everybody's argument style.
Speaker 2: Isn't it that we'll continue on this run before an
Speaker 2: argument breaks out? And this next story is quite a
Speaker 2: disturbing one, but it just goes to show you where
Speaker 2: we are sometimes in politics in this country. We have
Speaker 2: another ugly example of not just lack of decorum, but
Speaker 2: what's often a lack of common decency in our political discourse.
Speaker 2: Calls this morning for Texas Democrat Jasmine Crockett to be
Speaker 2: punished for openly mocking the governor of Texas for his disability.
Speaker 1: That's right. At a recent speech, Congresswoman Crockett referred to
Speaker 1: Governor Greg Abbott as Governor hot Wheels. Abbot uses a
Speaker 1: wheelchair after he was paralyzed in an accident when he
Speaker 1: was just twenty six years old.
Speaker 2: So Crockett went off script during a speech at the
Speaker 2: Human Rights Campaign event in La over the weekend. You
Speaker 2: can see from the video she had a teleprompter there,
Speaker 2: but there were times where she looked down at notes,
Speaker 2: and there were times where she clearly went off script,
Speaker 2: and this is one of those times. This is what
Speaker 2: she said, quote, we in these hot ass Texas streets, Honey,
Speaker 2: y'all know, we got governor hot wheels down there, and
Speaker 2: the only thing hot about him is that he's a
Speaker 2: hot ass mess in quote. Now, she said that you
Speaker 2: could hear some not necessarily jears, but certainly laughs and
Speaker 2: some clapping even in the room when she made the comment.
Speaker 1: Now, she's soundly being criticized, mainly from Republicans, as you
Speaker 1: might imagine, and a Republican congressman says he is going
Speaker 1: to introduce a resolution to censure Crockett. That's basically just
Speaker 1: a public flogging, so to speak. There's no actual real
Speaker 1: punishment or consequences, just a public shaming, so to speak.
Speaker 1: But Crockett has responded, and she is now saying that
Speaker 1: we got it all wrong writing this on X. That
Speaker 1: she wasn't making a reference to the fact that Abbott
Speaker 1: uses a wheelchair. No, that's not what she meant when
Speaker 1: she said hot wheels.
Speaker 2: This is what she said she was saying, and I'm
Speaker 2: quoting again. She wrote this own X I wasn't thinking
Speaker 2: about the governor's condition. I was thinking about the planes, trains,
Speaker 2: and automobiles he used to transfer migrants into communities led
Speaker 2: by black mayors, deliberately stoking tension and fear among the
Speaker 2: most vulnerable. Goes on to say, literally, the next line
Speaker 2: I said was that he was a hot ass mess,
Speaker 2: referencing his terrible policies. At no point that I mention
Speaker 2: or allude to his condition.
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would take who would
Speaker 1: take an issue with what she said. She absolutely alluded
Speaker 1: to his condition when she said hot wheels, So the
Speaker 1: fact that she said she didn't allude to his condition
Speaker 1: is puzzling. Crockett recently emerged as a prominent voice during
Speaker 1: all of that democratic infighting, and as far as a
Speaker 1: response from Governor Abbott himself, here's what he had to say,
Speaker 1: another day, Another disaster for Democrats. They have nothing to
Speaker 1: sell but hate, and a lot of people are hearkening
Speaker 1: back or remembering when President Trump mocked a New York
Speaker 1: Times reporter back in twenty fifteen. I believe, as he
Speaker 1: was running for president his first term, about when he
Speaker 1: literally imitated him and used hand gestures that mimicked this
Speaker 1: New York Times reporter and Trump, much like Crockett said, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I wasn't imitating him. I was just showing a reporter
Speaker 1: who is backpedaling from his story.
Speaker 2: So, okay, this was heartbreaking to hear that this has happened.
Speaker 2: I mean, politics is fine, go at each other, tell
Speaker 2: me you've got terrible policies, you're letting people do this,
Speaker 2: and that you're trying to take away this fine, But
Speaker 2: to mock a person that's disabled is just too much.
Speaker 2: That's just too much. On both sides. It's fine, But
Speaker 2: then you come back and to give the I know,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm more than anybody I want to give folks.
Speaker 2: Take you at your word. But it's almost as if
Speaker 2: she's calling us stupid in her response. At least it
Speaker 2: feel I'm trying to find a way to take her
Speaker 2: at her word. But this was a chance to teach
Speaker 2: two lessons. One, careful what you say in public. Don't
Speaker 2: get caught up in a moment, and don't say something
Speaker 2: mean right. That's less than one lesson. Two, When you do,
Speaker 2: you immediately take responsibility and you apologize. She could have
Speaker 2: had two lessons to teach people here, but she's not
Speaker 2: taking any responsibility for what she said.
Speaker 1: It's just really tough. I just think about these types
Speaker 1: of moments end up on TikTok our kids all see them.
Speaker 1: What is this teaching our children about how to treat
Speaker 1: one another's do as we say, not as we do?
Speaker 2: What's the backdrop when she said it? Human rights campaign?
Speaker 2: It was terrible, which focuses on what yes, human rights
Speaker 2: in particular LGBTQ plus community diversity, inclusion right, treating people
Speaker 2: with kindness.
Speaker 1: So to make someone who has a disability in the
Speaker 1: midst of.
Speaker 2: That, if you see the video here, entire backdrop while
Speaker 2: she's making fun of a disabled man is human rights campaign.
Speaker 2: They can't. That can't feel good? More to come on that.
Speaker 2: We are sure continue on the run here this morning,
Speaker 2: and we're going to start here with a question and robes.
Speaker 2: I'll ask you the question, certainly the listeners, this question
Speaker 2: for you. Do you right now know where your birth
Speaker 2: certificate is? Could you get up right now and walk
Speaker 2: to wherever in the home and get it.
Speaker 1: I can find my children's birth certificates, but I don't
Speaker 1: believe I could find my own.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I have no idea.
Speaker 1: I'd call my mom.
Speaker 2: That's what everybody would do, You call your mom. First
Speaker 2: birth certificate. Now we're asking this for a reason, but yes,
Speaker 2: interesting enough, there are statistics on this. The nearly ten
Speaker 2: percent of adults in this country do not have proof
Speaker 2: of citizenship birth certificate readily available.
Speaker 1: And we mentioned this because President Trump has just signed
Speaker 1: an executive order that says, if you want to register
Speaker 1: to vote, you have to show proof that you are
Speaker 1: in fact a United States citizen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this latest executive order would mean a major overhaul
Speaker 2: of US elections. In an addition to the citizenship requirement,
Speaker 2: it calls for all ballots to be received by election
Speaker 2: day and for states to identify non citizens on their
Speaker 2: voting roles. Congress is considering what it calls the Safe Act,
Speaker 2: which is something that would implement most of these changes anyway,
Speaker 2: but its passage in Congress is unlikely. So the President said,
Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna move.
Speaker 1: All them home, and he's going to be sued shortly.
Speaker 1: Of course, as has been the case in most of
Speaker 1: these executive orders that we've seen, the Constitution makes it
Speaker 1: very clear estates have the authority to set the time, place,
Speaker 1: and manner for elections. So we fully expect this executive
Speaker 1: order to be challenged. Voting rights groups are concerned a
Speaker 1: citizenship requirement could disenfranchise certain communities. But look, there are
Speaker 1: a lot of other issues. Like women who got married
Speaker 1: and changed their last names, could they face challenges since
Speaker 1: the name on their birth certificate won't match her ID.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's all sorts of issues that could come up.
Speaker 2: I didn't think about that. But it might not seem
Speaker 2: like a lot of folks, But I watched you deal
Speaker 2: with something with medical insurance the other day and you
Speaker 2: just finally want to quit. You couldn't write because it
Speaker 2: was a medical thing.
Speaker 1: But when you think about it, I wanted to.
Speaker 2: You wanted to. But if somebody okay, I got to
Speaker 2: go through another step and another step and another step
Speaker 2: just to vote, you're finally going to say, oh, forget it,
Speaker 2: and folks will be left out. But they're making it
Speaker 2: more difficult. I didn't realize that we you right now,
Speaker 2: what's the rule? You just swear I promise you I'm
Speaker 2: a US citizen, under threat of perjury, that you're eligible
Speaker 2: to vote. That's how it works right now. And you
Speaker 2: provide a driver's license, yous too have to have some
Speaker 2: kind of an ID.
Speaker 1: Of course, yeah, or social Security number.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that's what it's required now. But it's likely
Speaker 2: not going to go through because it's going to get challenged,
Speaker 2: to get held up in court, like it seems like
Speaker 2: most of his executive orders.
Speaker 1: That's been happening. It's a trend. Next up on our run,
Speaker 1: a ten thousand dollars painting has gone missing from the
Speaker 1: walls of the Colorado State Capitol, just like President Trump wanted.
Speaker 1: The painting was off him. He didn't like it, he complained,
Speaker 1: and now they have officially taken it down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we told you about this story yesterday. It was
Speaker 2: an oil painting of the President at US hung in
Speaker 2: the Colorado State Capital for the past six years. For
Speaker 2: whatever reason, it came to Trump's attention. He went on
Speaker 2: social media to complain that the portrait was purposefully distorted
Speaker 2: by the artists and should be taken down. But get this,
Speaker 2: it was actually state Republicans who put the thing thing
Speaker 2: up in the first place. They had raised ten thousand
Speaker 2: dollars to commission the painting. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The portrait was painted by artist Sarah Boardman. She also
Speaker 1: painted the adjacent portrait or what was the adjacent portrait
Speaker 1: next to President Trump with President Obama, and Trump actually
Speaker 1: made a comment about that portrait. He said Obama's portrait
Speaker 1: looked wonderful. His did not. He didn't feel After Trump's
Speaker 1: criticism of his portrait, a steady stream of visitors started
Speaker 1: showing up at the Capitol to take pictures with it.
Speaker 1: We also told you there, you know, we don't know.
Speaker 1: Could there be a replacement portrait he could give the
Speaker 1: one that Putin gave to him, and we shall see
Speaker 1: what happens, or if they'll just be a missing spot
Speaker 1: on the wall of the Colorado State Capital.
Speaker 2: They won't allow that, so they'll put something up there.
Speaker 2: I'm dying to see that picture that Putin gave Trump.
Speaker 2: I would love to see that portrait. Stay with U zero, folks.
Speaker 2: We're going to continue on this Wednesday morning run. When
Speaker 2: we come back. We're finding out more about the Pope's
Speaker 2: condition when he was in the hospital. Doctor say they
Speaker 2: actually considered stopping treatment and letting him pass in peace.
Speaker 2: Will update you there also some more bad news for Tesla. Also,
Speaker 2: TikTok makes a major change, and this morning an update
Speaker 2: on the story you've been waiting on. A man a
Speaker 2: thief finally takes an eight hundred thousand dollars people, all right,
Speaker 2: we continue on this Wednesday morning run in Rome. We
Speaker 2: knew he was in rough shade, but now Pope Francis's
Speaker 2: medical team is revealing just how bad things got for
Speaker 2: the Pontiff during his month long hospital stay.
Speaker 1: Things got so bad doctors at one point considered ending
Speaker 1: his treatment and allowing him to pass away in peace.
Speaker 1: This happened February twenty eighth, when Pope Francis was said
Speaker 1: to be having a breathing crisis. We now know he
Speaker 1: actually inhaled his own vomit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, doctors say they had a choice to make stop
Speaker 2: treatment and let him die in peace, or go with
Speaker 2: an aggressive course of drugs and other treatments that might
Speaker 2: damage his organs. Now it was his personal nurse that
Speaker 2: we are told who was in the room and the
Speaker 2: doctor say, hey, this is the person that knows his
Speaker 2: wishes better than any when it comes to his health.
Speaker 2: And this is the quote they said. The nurse told
Speaker 2: them try everything, don't give up.
Speaker 1: Doctor say, there was an understanding among them that the
Speaker 1: Pope might not make it through the night. But the
Speaker 1: Pope did respond to that aggressive treatment, got out of
Speaker 1: immediate danger, and then just three days later had another
Speaker 1: breathing crisis that had him once again close to death,
Speaker 1: but doctors were able to get him through that as well.
Speaker 2: Hey, you might remember he was initially admitted to the
Speaker 2: hospital on Valentine today for bronchitis, ended up with double pneumonia,
Speaker 2: ultimately spent thirty eight days in the hospital before being
Speaker 2: released on Sunday. Is doctor who gave all the new
Speaker 2: details in the interview with an Italian publication suggested, yes,
Speaker 2: that the world saved the pope's life with prayer. Quote,
Speaker 2: in this case, the whole world was praying. I can
Speaker 2: say that twice the situation was lost and then it
Speaker 2: happened like a miracle.
Speaker 1: We even said, before we knew these details, how miraculous
Speaker 1: it seemed. I said. I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: could say this was America. Everyone expected him to die
Speaker 1: at that point, and to get those details confirms that.
Speaker 1: But wow, that nurse, that's a very cool story, very
Speaker 1: cool story. All right, this is not so good, not
Speaker 1: so cool for Elon Musk. Yeah, next up on the run.
Speaker 1: I feel like every day we have another awful story,
Speaker 1: either about him or Tesla or both. Well, European sales
Speaker 1: of Tesla have fallen forty nine percent in January and
Speaker 1: February compared to one year ago, and that massive drop
Speaker 1: happened at a time when overall sales of electric vehicles
Speaker 1: has risen more than twenty eight percent.
Speaker 2: All right, so what's the blame? A couple of issues here.
Speaker 2: The first one you could probably imagine. There's been backlash
Speaker 2: against Elon Musk and his role in the Trump administration.
Speaker 2: There's danger, rather i should say anger over musk endorsement
Speaker 2: of Germany's far right alternative for Germany Party during last
Speaker 2: month's election. And they've also been complaints about Tesla's just
Speaker 2: the fact that they're aging. They're just don't have any
Speaker 2: updated mind, so they're kind of getting old people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you want another reason also dogging the company.
Speaker 1: Tesla's new cybertruck just had to issue. We told you
Speaker 1: about this. It's eighth recall in basically a year. That
Speaker 1: ever since they became available to customers, which was a
Speaker 1: little over a year ago, that cyber truck has already
Speaker 1: had eight recalls. Not to mention all of the attacks
Speaker 1: that are making headlines almost on a daily basis, with
Speaker 1: bullets and bombs, et cetera, from individual vehicles, to car
Speaker 1: dealerships to charging stations. Individual they were calling them loan wolfman,
Speaker 1: loan attackers who were going out and deliberately attacking these
Speaker 1: vehicles because they're upset at Elon Musk's doge policies. So yeah,
Speaker 1: you no more bad news.
Speaker 2: We were talking. I didn't think about it until now
Speaker 2: with Crockett. Congresswoman Crockett has gone after to Elon and Tesla.
Speaker 2: She has organized I can't remember what she called it,
Speaker 2: but a day of protests at Tesla dealerships on March
Speaker 2: twenty ninth or birthday. So you can't. I mean, we're
Speaker 2: talking about h hundreds of planned protests on that day
Speaker 2: specifically targeting Tesla. Yes, they're not supposed to be violently,
Speaker 2: supposed to be peaceful, let you voice be heard. But
Speaker 2: this just goes to show.
Speaker 1: People more to come, is what that goes to show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, I moved up in the rundown.
Speaker 1: We're on TikTok, you know I did.
Speaker 2: I wasn't aware of this actually on that this was
Speaker 2: the thing.
Speaker 1: I just found this this morning.
Speaker 2: Okay, So we're clearly not big TikTok users here, But
Speaker 2: we just found out that they have stopped letting people
Speaker 2: make and search for videos using what's been called a
Speaker 2: chubby filter. Now it had become a recent trend. Users
Speaker 2: show an original picture of themselves and then apply the
Speaker 2: filter that made them look bigger, with Doci's song Anxiety
Speaker 2: as the background music.
Speaker 1: Yeah. One TikTok user said, oh, great, a filters, so
Speaker 1: skinny girls can make fun of what they would look
Speaker 1: like if they were fat, and that's been the problem.
Speaker 1: So some of these videos, yeah, they were getting millions
Speaker 1: of views, with comments raging from laughter to outrage. Critics
Speaker 1: say the filter was being used as a form of
Speaker 1: body shaming, literally made making fun of weight gain and
Speaker 1: so TikTok listened, confirming on Tuesday that capcut, which is
Speaker 1: owned by the same parent company as TikTok, had completely
Speaker 1: removed the filter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the TikTok said also, it's reviewing videos that have
Speaker 2: used the filter to make them ineligible for recommendation to
Speaker 2: other users. A study published last year found that women
Speaker 2: who spend time on TikTok are a greater risk of
Speaker 2: disliking their bodies and feeling worse about their appearance. Studies
Speaker 2: showed that after as little as ten minutes viewing content
Speaker 2: on TikTok, the women surveyed say they had negative body reactions.
Speaker 2: Every once in a while, social media company gets it right.
Speaker 2: This might seem like a small thing, but this is
Speaker 2: a big deal.
Speaker 1: It was a big deal to me to see that
Speaker 1: because it makes sense, and I was glad to see
Speaker 1: that they made that call, and pretty quickly after there
Speaker 1: was a lot of uproar. It was nice to see
Speaker 1: that they made a swift decision. Yesterday, well, for the
Speaker 1: final leg of our run, an update on a story
Speaker 1: we promised you we would follow up on. Remember that
Speaker 1: thief in Orlando who swallowed his loote and not just
Speaker 1: any loot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd actually forgotten about this story. Orlando police say, uh,
Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventy thousand dollars worth of diamond earrings
Speaker 2: were swallowed by a suspect stolen from a Tiffany store there. Well,
Speaker 2: they have finally finally recovered all of those diamonds. Again,
Speaker 2: I said, he swallowed seven hundred and seventy thousand dollars
Speaker 2: worth of diamond earrings, so they have finally been recovered. Well,
Speaker 2: how do you think they recover them.
Speaker 1: Yes, they used the word expelled in the police report. Oh,
Speaker 1: the diamonds were expelled, and I.
Speaker 2: Call it a eight hundred thousand dollars poop, my bad.
Speaker 1: And it took longer than you might think, by the way. Yeah, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: they said that they like they were thanking their team
Speaker 1: of officers for making it through the grueling hours of
Speaker 1: basically having to watch this guy night and day. So
Speaker 1: if police said detectives monitored Jaythan Gilder for more than
Speaker 1: a dozen days at the hospital before they were finally
Speaker 1: able to match the serial numbers on the jewelry with
Speaker 1: the items that were stolen, or let you.
Speaker 2: Really need to go match serial numbers? We know?
Speaker 1: I guess they had to to confirm it. Or Orlando
Speaker 1: ped went on to say that the detectives then brought
Speaker 1: those diamonds back to Tiffany's and they specified that they
Speaker 1: were in fact cleaned and then verified through an inscription
Speaker 1: and serial numbers at the store. Who had to clean them?
Speaker 2: But why do you have to watch he goes to
Speaker 2: the bat where they're scared he's gonna flush them or
Speaker 2: hide them somewhere.
Speaker 1: You have to Yeah, I think they just had to
Speaker 1: be monitoring him the entire time, just in case he
Speaker 1: was able to take it and swallow it back or
Speaker 1: do something. Who knows.
Speaker 2: I don't know this U okay, So the robbery itself,
Speaker 2: police say, well, how does this happen? Well, he posed
Speaker 2: as a representative for the Orlando Magic This took him
Speaker 2: back to a VIP room, so they thought they were
Speaker 2: going to make a big cell here, and it turns
Speaker 2: out he was trying to rob the place. He grabbed
Speaker 2: some jewelry, struggled with an employee, he dropped some stuff
Speaker 2: on the around, but then he swallowed the other diamonds
Speaker 2: before being taken into custoders.
Speaker 1: I was just kind of imagining the whole scene in
Speaker 1: my head and it had to be comical and yet
Speaker 1: at the same time really concerning. Please say, this isn't
Speaker 1: his first time. He has a history of jewelry heist
Speaker 1: and did one very similar to this just earlier in
Speaker 1: the year. But he has forty eight outstanding warrants in
Speaker 1: Colorado right now he's facing charges of grand theft and
Speaker 1: robbery with a mask. But we have bigger questions, like
Speaker 1: are they going to have to tell is Tiffany's going
Speaker 1: to have to tell anyone who purchases these diamonds. By

Speaker 1: ear and it was in someone's butt.

Speaker 1: in your ear, that's like you're actually introducing it into
Speaker 1: your skin. Uh uh.

Speaker 1: Some come to clear your path. I love thinking about
Speaker 1: it that way, we can all we don't have to
Speaker 1: go back too far. You start thinking about what seemed
Speaker 1: so terrible, and what you realize is they say when
Speaker 1: one door closes, a window opens, or another one opens.
Speaker 1: But a lot of times it literally you have to
Speaker 1: almost tears something down to build yourself back up. And
Speaker 1: I like looking at it like that. It turns a
Speaker 1: negative into a positive.
Speaker 2: Yes, And sometimes you can't even see that path unless
Speaker 2: that storm comes and clears things out. You go, oh wow,
Speaker 2: I was supposed to go that way all along. So folks,
