Also 32 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: this morning, the markets rallied yesterday after they liked what 33 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: they heard from the Fed on interest rates. 34 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: Plus another positive announcement from the Vatican about Pope Francis 35 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: as he continues to show signs of improvement, and the 36 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: DoD dee eyed Jackie Robinson and then reinstated a tribute 37 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: to him just hours later. 38 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: Also today on this run, Bye bye winter and happy 39 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 2: first day of Spring. But are you, as an American 40 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: actually happy? The World Happiness Report has just been released, 41 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: and where do you think the US ranks in the 42 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: world here's a hint, not very high. 43 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 1: We're gonna do our best, though, to raise that happiness 44 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: quotion with this morning run today. So we'll begin our 45 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 1: run with progress. Another day, another phone call, another step 46 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: towards ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. 47 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: President Trump and President Zelensky had what Trump says was 48 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: a very good call yesterday. Zelensky called it a substantive 49 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: and frank talk. And after that chat, the two sides 50 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 2: announced that Ukraine had agreed to a partial ceasefire with Russia. 51 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: It was just a day earlier that Trump was on 52 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: the phone with President Putin, who rejected a full scale ceasefire, 53 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: bus agreed to a pared down version of that ceasefire. 54 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: The partial ceasefire was specific Russia would stop attacks on 55 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: certain targets in Ukraine. A bit of discrepancy right now 56 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 1: about which ones? 57 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: Okay? So yeah, devil in the details here. Ukraine announced 58 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 2: it agreed to a partial ceasefire in which Russia would 59 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 2: stop attacks on energy and other infrastructure targets in Ukraine, 60 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 2: while the US announced the partial ceasefire would stop attacks 61 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 2: only on energy targets. So that discrepancy, which is a 62 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: significant one, still needs to be worked out. 63 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: But what was very notable was a stark, starkly different 64 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: tone from Zelenski in his message yesterday on AX. We 65 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: remember in days and just how long ago was it? 66 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: Not even two weeks ago where we had that very 67 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: dramatic and difficult to watch meeting between you. 68 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: You say dramatic and difficult, disastrous, disastrous. 69 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: That Okay, we'll just keep all the d's in there. Yes, So, yes, 70 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: we all saw what was happening between those two men, 71 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: and specifically what zelen said and wrote on Twitter, well, 72 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: our ex excuse me yesterday, a very different tone. Here's 73 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: just some of what we heard from Zelensky on X. 74 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: He said, we believe that together with America, with President 75 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: Trump and under American leadership, lasting peace can be achieved 76 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: this year. 77 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: Wow. 78 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: I mean, hey, we'll take it. 79 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 2: He understands the assignment a little better now and somebody 80 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: got in his ear, but yes, he was very effusive 81 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: in his praise, not just in saying thank you, but 82 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 2: he was directing a lot of that towards President Trump. 83 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: And maybe we can understand why, but that discrepancy needs 84 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: to be worked out. But how many months are we 85 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: into President Trump's presidency this is the most movement of 86 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 2: anything related to a ceasefire and stopping that war that 87 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: we have seen. Don't like his methods. A lot of 88 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: people argue with sure, but this is movement that some 89 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 2: people have a hard time disagreeing with and not applauding 90 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,679 Speaker 2: at least that something is happening. 91 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: More has happened in these three months than in the 92 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: entire three years since this war began, for sure. 93 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 2: You continue here on our run this morning, though with Israel, 94 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 2: apparently they were not bluffing after breaking the months long 95 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 2: ceasfire on Tuesday with that surprise barrage of air strikes 96 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 2: that killed four hundred people in Gaza, Israel vow, do 97 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: you remember that was just the beginning. 98 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: They've now followed up with more deadly air strikes yesterday 99 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 1: and now a ground incursion. Reports say anywhere between twenty 100 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: to forty people were killed in this new round of 101 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: air strikes. Meanwhile, Israeli troops moved back into Gaza for 102 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 1: the first time since the ceasefire was put in place. 103 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,559 Speaker 1: Israel says it's reclaimed some sections of land that served 104 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: as a buffer zone. 105 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: Israel is making clear they will keep this up with 106 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 2: the goal of eliminating Hamas. The Israeli Defense minister put 107 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 2: it this way, quote, if all the Israeli hostages are 108 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: not released and Hamas is not eliminated from Gaza, Israel 109 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: will act with forces you have never known before. Quote. 110 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 1: For its part, Hamas called the Israeli air strikes a 111 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: violation of the ceasfire, but said it was still committed 112 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: to that ceasefire is really Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyah, who 113 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: says he ordered a resumption of strikes against Gaza because 114 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: of a lack of progress in peace talks. 115 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, that first phase of the ceasefire largely held in 116 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 2: several exchanges of hostages in Palestinian prisoners took place like 117 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: they were supposed to. But that first phase came and went. 118 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 2: It ended March first, and there wasn't a lot of 119 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: movement after that. There was no next phase of the 120 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: ceasefire deal. So Prime Minister Benjamin NATANYAHUO said we are 121 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 2: going to go back at it. They said, we spoke 122 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: about this yesterday. Any deal now, any stop in fighting 123 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 2: is going to be done under fire. There will be 124 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 2: no more ceasefires. We're not messing around with us. 125 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: That's heartbreaking, it's heartbreaking to watch, all right. Next up 126 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: on the run, President Trump is taking another step at 127 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: eliminating the Department of Education. Today. He's scheduled to sign 128 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: an executive order at the White House that instructs his 129 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: Education secretary to begin dismantling the department, even if he 130 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: can't legally completely shut it down on his own. 131 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, the day. He was created during the Order administration 132 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: in nineteen seventy nine by Congress and can only be 133 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 2: eliminated by Congress. Still, the President can essentially cripple the 134 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: department through a series of actions. The administration has already 135 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: cut the department's workforce in half, so he can make 136 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: it almost impossible for the department to function. 137 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: Yes, the executive order instructs Education Secretary Linda McMahon to 138 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of the 139 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: Department of Education and return education authority to the States. 140 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: Trump will be joined by Republican governors for the signing ceremony. 141 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: McMahon will be there as well, and you can bet 142 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: the lawsuits, yes, will continue. 143 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: DeSantis, former rival, is going to be there as well. 144 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: He was supposed he talked about for a while for 145 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: Department of Defense. Yes, for a little bit, but they 146 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: have gone at it. But some Republican governors will be 147 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: back and like you said, what's going to happen here? 148 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: Though? 149 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: I mean, they can make it what usaid. You can 150 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: take all the money, you can do all these things 151 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 2: and cripple the agency to the point it just doesn't function. 152 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: It can't function. 153 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 2: It can't function, so he can shut it down. It 154 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: was it wasn't interesting, Linda mcmahonny told her at the beginning. 155 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 2: Your job is to put yourself out of a job. Yep, 156 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: as Education. 157 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: Says, and he's moving forward with that plan. 158 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: All right. On the next leg of our run here, 159 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: let's head over to Pennsylvania. Check this out. That Trump 160 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: administration is with holding one hundred and seventy five million 161 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: dollars from an Ivy League school there for allowing a 162 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,679 Speaker 2: transgender swimmer to compete on its women's team. 163 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: Leah Thomas became the first transgender athlete to win a 164 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: Division one national championship as swimmer. As a swimmer on 165 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two University of Pennsylvania women's team. Thomas's 166 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: story and success set off a national and sometimes ugly 167 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: debate about trans athletes. 168 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: So President Trump signed an executive order last month stating 169 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 2: that federal money could be withheld from schools that allowed 170 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: transgender athletes to compete on girls and women's teams, and 171 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: soon after that order, the administration started looking into Penn. 172 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: That's right. The administration now says one hundred and seventy 173 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: five million dollars in funding is being withheld from the school. However, 174 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: Penn claims it is in compliance with NC double A 175 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: rules and Leah Thomas hasn't competed at the school since 176 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, that's when she graduated. 177 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 2: So at that time, back in twenty twenty two, the 178 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: NC DOUBLEA did allow for individual sports and their governing 179 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 2: bodies to set their own rules for participation by transgender athletes. 180 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: They changed that policy and are now in compliance with 181 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 2: Trump's order. So still it's a little confusing. They weren't 182 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: in violation of his order in twenty twenty two because 183 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 2: he wasn't president, but he's still making this move and 184 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: this is sending a very big message. 185 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: It certainly is, and I wonder what could be done 186 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: by Penn at this point to correct it if they're 187 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: in compliance now and they just weren't three years ago 188 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: when Trump wasn't president. Clearly, this is certainly a warning 189 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: to any other school who chooses not to comply. 190 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: Is that the strategy? 191 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: I believe that would the only thing that makes sense 192 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: with this action. Yes, exactly, all right, next up on 193 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: the run, we're going to head to Wall Street. The 194 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: US stock market rallied after the Federal Reserve announced it 195 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: would keep interest rates unchanged as expected. 196 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, indicated there will be two quarter point interest rate 197 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 2: cuts later this year. The markets have been wildly unsteady 198 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 2: as investors try to gauge how President Trump's tariffs are 199 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: going to affect the economy, also trying to figure out 200 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 2: which ones are coming, which ones are going, which ones 201 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 2: are going to be in place, which ones are going 202 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 2: to go away because of legal action. Is just uncertainty, 203 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: and the markets hate. 204 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: That, they certainly do. But the Federal Reserve also forecast 205 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: slower economic growth for the US and higher inflation. And 206 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: despite that, the Dow closed nearly four hundred points up 207 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: following their announcement, and the NASDAK rose by one point 208 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: four percent. So hey, we'll take an update on Wall Street. 209 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: We certainly have had several down ones. 210 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 2: All right, we'll stay with us here on this Thursday morning. 211 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: Ron when we come back, good news for the Pope. 212 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: Jackie Robinson gets kicked out of the military. Spring is 213 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 2: here and America apparently is not a very happy place. 214 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 2: Welcome back to this morning's run, and the next leg 215 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 2: of the run will take us to Rome, where we 216 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 2: have some more encouraging news. The Vatican says Pope Francis 217 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 2: is no longer using mechanical ventilation to help him breathe 218 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 2: at night. 219 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: Yes, and they added that as doctors believe the Pope 220 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: will continue to improve even further. Pope Francis has been 221 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: in the hospital now for nearly five weeks, battling double pneumonia. 222 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 2: Well, he's still receiving oxygen through a small hose under 223 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: his nose, but doctors say his blood tests are normal, 224 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 2: his infection is under control. No word on when he 225 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: might be released from the hospital. Robes, We've been doing 226 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 2: these every day for a full month, and every time 227 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 2: I'm relieved. 228 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,559 Speaker 1: A Thank goodness, it's an I's it kind of feels 229 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: a little bit like a miracle. I don't think any 230 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: of us will, at least I didn't expect this outcome, 231 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: and certainly happy that that is what's happened. 232 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,439 Speaker 2: There were some dark days, there were some really scary days. 233 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: Can you imagine the moment he shows back up at 234 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 2: Saint Peter Square. That's the image. Now I can't get 235 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 2: out of my head that possibility. 236 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: That I just got chills when you said that, because 237 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: there are still so many people The New York Times 238 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: that a huge article on this, still believing that the 239 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: pope is dead, so many social media influencers and TikTokers 240 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: still trying to storm the hospital looking for him. So 241 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: those rumors are still out there, and there are people 242 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: who actually believe that the Vatican is hiding the pope's 243 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: true condition, the fact that he might be dead. So yes, 244 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: the moment where we see the Pope leaving the hospital, 245 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: or at least coming out there on Saint Peter Square 246 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: and a wave, a nod, a smile, that will be everything. 247 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 2: We can people think he's dead, they put out a 248 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 2: picture confirming he's fine. 249 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: Sorry, that very revealing photo from behind where you can't 250 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: even see if his eyes are closed or open. You 251 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: mean that one? Oh okay, all right, next up on 252 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: our run, well head back here to the us of 253 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: a Robinson got deied right out of American military history. 254 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: But he's back. He's back now. A tribute to Jackie 255 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: Robinson's military service was taken down from the Defense Department website. 256 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 2: Okay, so how does this happen? Apparently this is part 257 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 2: of a purge of DEI content from the Department. But 258 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 2: the pentagona is saying that Jackie Robinson's tribute page was 259 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 2: mistakenly deleted now apparently, and they can't go through page 260 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 2: by page and line by line trying to scrub a 261 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: DEI from the Pentagon page. So they say they use 262 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 2: whatever algorithm, and they're using keywords. It finds those keywords 263 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 2: throughout and eliminates those pages. They say, that's what happened here. 264 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 2: It happened also with the Tuskegee Airmen. They had a 265 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 2: dedication page that was also removed mistakenly, So that's how 266 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: they say it happened. But they saw the era. The 267 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 2: page is back up. We did look at it this 268 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: morning and can confirm. The article is called sports Heroes 269 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: who Served Baseball Great Jackie Robinson was a World War 270 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 2: or two soldier. It is back up. 271 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: Wouldn't you love to know what the keywords are? 272 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 2: They didn't give them to black history. 273 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was just trying to. 274 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 2: Figure that out that could come up through that stuff. 275 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: I kind of need to know what the keywords were. 276 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 2: Into What did he do he integrated baseball? He I mean, 277 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 2: what would a word have been just black? 278 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: I mean right, That's why I was like black history. 279 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: Pentagon spokesperson explained what happened this way. We are pleased 280 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: by the rapid compliance across the department with the directive 281 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: removing DEI content from all platforms, but added they correct 282 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: the content so it recognizes our heroes for their dedicated 283 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: service alongside their fellow Americans period. 284 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: Okay, acknowledged that we are doing what we want to 285 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: do and sometimes there is a mistake, but they have 286 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 2: several they need to put back up. This is just 287 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 2: one of those shocking things. Look, maybe it was probably 288 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 2: was a mistake, but it's just so jarring to think 289 00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: that this is how they're going about it, that even 290 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 2: Robinson could get kicked out of the military and a 291 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: part of American history Oopsie, based on some words were 292 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: not even sure of next up on the run here, folks, 293 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 2: I have to let y'all know Robot stopped me while 294 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 2: we were working on the rundown this morning and said, ooh, countdown, 295 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 2: we only have a few minutes left in winter. 296 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: It was six minutes. We had six minutes left in winter. 297 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: I just wanted you to know. 298 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 2: I just wanted to go away. Should have told me, hey, 299 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: we got spring in six minutes. But that's what was 300 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 2: going on. Yes, Spring officially started at five one a m. 301 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 2: Eastern this morning, so fun fag this is the first 302 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 2: day of spring. It's actually called the vernal equinox. Well, yeah, 303 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 2: everybody knows that. 304 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, duh. It's only one of two times each year 305 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: when the Earth's equator is not tilted towards or away 306 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: from the Sun, so there are equal amounts of daylight 307 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: and darkness across the world, across all latitudes. That's pretty cool. 308 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: I don't think I realized that. The other time that 309 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: happens is on the first day of fall, or the 310 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: autumnal equinox. It's different than the solstice, which is the 311 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: longest and shortest day of the year. So this is 312 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: when daylight and nighttime are exactly equal. 313 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 2: Is there anything attached to this like a full moon? 314 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: They say people started at start acting weird at times 315 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: and stuff, happenings with the Earth and things and planet. 316 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: Name my moods and my behaviors once a month on 317 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: the full moon. 318 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 2: But this is not the equinox. Is not a thing 319 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: where they think people are odd behavior. 320 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, but if I have some strange behavior today, 321 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: I'll just blame it on the. 322 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 2: Equal How would I notice it's all weird? 323 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: Right? 324 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 2: Okay, we get the final leg or you're on this 325 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: Thursday run. Now, the annual list of the Happiest Countries 326 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 2: on Earth was just released. So where do you think 327 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 2: the United States ranks. 328 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: Here's a hint. We're not even in the top ten. 329 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: We're not even in the top twenty. All right, let's 330 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: start at the top of the list. Though. Let's start 331 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: with the good news. This is the annual list put 332 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: out by the UN, and for the eighth year in 333 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: a row, Finland has ranked as the happiest country on Earth. 334 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: Okay, Finland might not be for you. You don't want to 335 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 2: move there. How about you move to the second happiest 336 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 2: country in the world, Denmark? You know what, not a 337 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 2: big Denmark guy myself. Not for me necessarily, So let's 338 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 2: go to the third happiest place. You want to go 339 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 2: to Iceland? Okay, what about the I love Iceland? Iceland? 340 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 2: You go to that one. So the fourth happiest place 341 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 2: on Earth is Sweden. So have you noticed the theme here? 342 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 2: The top four happiest places on Earth are all these 343 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 2: Nordic countries. Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Sweden, your top four. 344 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 1: You know what, They're never in the news? Are they 345 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: for anything negative? It just all seems like they got 346 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: it going on. No news is good news. That is 347 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: the same top four, by the way from last year. 348 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: We're gonna have more on why these countries are at 349 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: the top and just a moment. So where does the 350 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,959 Speaker 1: United States rank? Well, it's not good. In fact, it 351 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: is the lowest happiness ranking the US has ever had 352 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: in the history of this list. We are at number 353 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: twenty four. 354 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: Okay, if it feels like this story is going to 355 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 2: be a depressing one, we're gonna bring it home here 356 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 2: in just a second, all right. So this is the 357 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 2: first time the United States has ever ranked outside the 358 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 2: top twenty and these rankings, so what's behind our drop? 359 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 2: The re searchers are telling us that it is being 360 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 2: driven by younger folks, people under the age of thirty 361 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 2: who are pessimistic about the direction of their own lives 362 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 2: and report feeling less supported by friends and family. They 363 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 2: also report feeling less freedom. 364 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: That's so interesting, right. The list has been compiled by 365 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: the UN for the past thirteen years in conjunction with 366 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: World Happiness Day, which is today. By the way, maybe 367 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: it's because it's the first day of spring too. Also, 368 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: it uses Gallop pulling data from people in more than 369 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty countries who are ranked on happiness 370 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: based on average life evaluations, and it looks at several 371 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: key variables including social support, healthy life expectancy, generosity, perceptions 372 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: of corruption, among other things. 373 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 2: So let's go back to that top four, the Nordic countries. 374 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 2: Why they consistently rank at the top, Well, the researchers 375 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 2: tell us they have a virtuous cycle of society, which 376 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 2: means certain segments of society all kind of tie in 377 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,360 Speaker 2: together and feed into each other in a productive way. 378 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 2: So you're talking about democracy, you're talking about good and 379 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 2: trusted government, talking about low crime, good general welfare benefits 380 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: all come together and it makes for a good society. 381 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 2: And yes, low crime has a lot to do with that. 382 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 2: So the countries that do rank. We talked about the 383 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: top four. The ones at the bottom of the list 384 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 2: not necessarily a surprise when you hear them, but Afghanistan 385 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: once again last on the list, and then Sierra Leone, Lebanon, 386 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 2: Malawi and Zimbabwe round out the bottom five. 387 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,479 Speaker 1: We loved this quote from one of the editors of 388 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: this Happiness report. You found this TJ. And this is 389 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: something we can all take with us today on World 390 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: Happiness Day. 391 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: Look, we always do a quote of the day. We 392 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 2: have one at the bottom, but this one, Folks, if 393 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 2: you don't listen to anything else in this podcast, please 394 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 2: listen to this quote that Robot is about to give you. 395 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: Look seriously at the people with whom you are working with, 396 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,679 Speaker 1: whom you are living, who are on your streets, and 397 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: put on a rosier set of glasses when you're dealing 398 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: with them. And that'll change your behavior in traffic, It'll 399 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: change your behavior in political discussions, It'll change everything. Talking 400 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: less and listening more helps with attitude shifts that can 401 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: lead to more cooperation. Negativity is poisonous to happiness. Wow. 402 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: And so it's in all of us. The power is 403 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: within all of us to be happier and to spread happiness. 404 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 2: This is from one of the founding editors of this report, 405 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: and I just keep that with it. If you almost 406 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 2: keep that in your pocket you have a bad moment, 407 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 2: just pull that out and take a look at it. 408 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 2: But it is, it's in each of us. It reminds 409 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 2: us in the simplest of ways. I love what he 410 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: said here, and this is a current quote happening to 411 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 2: do with this the current. 412 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: List, and it's empowering because it's something that we can 413 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: all change and it's something we can all do. I 414 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: found something else really interesting in the report, because you know, 415 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: I don't mind being alone. I prefer to be with people, 416 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: but I really can't stand dining alone. I've always told 417 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: you that for me, it's it's such a it's such 418 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: some it's an event that I want to share with people. Well, 419 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 1: this report found that Americans specifically are spending more and 420 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: more time dining alone. They said roughly one in four 421 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: Americans reported eating all of their meals alone in the 422 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: previous day, and that's a fifty three percent increase since 423 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: twenty years ago. So, for whatever reason they just said, 424 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: dining alone has become more prevalent for every age group 425 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 1: in the United States, but especially for young people, and 426 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: it's those young people who are reporting that they're less happy. 427 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if one is leading to the other 428 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: or if the other is contributing to the unhappiness, but 429 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: it is an interesting note that they made in this report. 430 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 2: That's one thing that we all. It seems so communal right. 431 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 2: You can watch a show by yourself, you can do 432 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 2: a lot of things on your own. But if you're 433 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 2: dining alone, if you see someone dining alone, even it 434 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 2: feels sad to some reason, even though it might not be. 435 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 2: I love dining alone, as you know, but I never. 436 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: Do because I'm always with you, I. 437 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 2: Always people are always around. So I relish a moment 438 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 2: that I get to sit and be alone. And we've 439 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 2: talked about that plenty. I just we don't even know 440 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 2: how that's impact. Even if you're voluntarily dining alone, you're 441 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: doing it by choice, it's still it might be doing 442 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 2: something to you that you don't even realize. I didn't 443 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 2: see that note that you pointed out about the dining, 444 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 2: but that is it's tough to hear young people are 445 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 2: feeling that way and are pessimistic about their own future. 446 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: Yeah it is, and so again that quote. We all 447 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: have the power to make that change and to find 448 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: a little extra happiness in our life. And if you 449 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: were curious about the top ten happiest countries, will listen 450 00:22:54,600 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: them for you right now. Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Sweden, nether Life, 451 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: Costa Rica, Norway, Israel, Luxembourg and Mexico. That I mean, 452 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: that's a little bit surprising that list, but interesting to note. 453 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 2: Put happier than all of us. And you know what, 454 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,719 Speaker 2: we do have a quote of the day. You want 455 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 2: to save this one for tomorrow, the one you have, 456 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: and then in the back and make that quote the 457 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 2: quote of the day again to agree from the editor, 458 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 2: because that's just a great one, folks. Yes, we always 459 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: leave you with the quote of the day. We have 460 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,719 Speaker 2: another one in here we were ready to give you, 461 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 2: but this is just a beautiful, beautiful one that ties 462 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: into World Happiness Day and it's a great reminder that 463 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 2: you should take with you. Maybe we'll post this and 464 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: you can have it in your pocket later. But by 465 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 2: all means, ropes, give them to him one more time, 466 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 2: the quote of the day from the editor of this 467 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 2: Happiness Report. 468 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: Look seriously at the people with whom you are working, with, 469 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: whom you are living, who are on your streets, and 470 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: put on a rosier set of glasses when you're dealing 471 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: with them, and that will change your behavior in traffic, 472 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: it will change your behavior in political discussions, It'll change everything. 473 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,439 Speaker 1: Talking less and listening more helps with attitude shifts that 474 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 1: can lead to more cooperation. Negativity is poisonous to happiness. 475 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 2: And with that, folks, we hope you have have some 476 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: happiness on this world Happiness Day.
