Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ an iHeartRadio podcast. Good
Speaker 1: Friday morning, everyone, and welcome to Morning Run. Yes it
Speaker 1: is Friday, November twenty second.
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robox and I'm TJ. Holmes and on the
Speaker 2: run this morning. All of our phones were going off.
Speaker 2: Yesterday a flurry set off by a couple of stunning,
Speaker 2: back to back breaking news stories.
Speaker 1: First, Matt Gates abruptly withdrew his name from consideration to
Speaker 1: be Trump's attorney General. Trump had another ag nominee within
Speaker 1: hours of that announcement.
Speaker 2: And then the other shocker nobody seemed to see coming.
Speaker 2: Jesse Smolette's conviction for planning a racist, homophobic attack on
Speaker 2: himself was.
Speaker 1: Overturned, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahoo is now a
Speaker 1: wonted man after a warrant was issued for his arrest.
Speaker 2: Also, first it was Deli meat, then it was onions,
Speaker 2: Then it was the carrots. Now it's the ground beef,
Speaker 2: the latest food to be recalled for E. Coli and
Speaker 2: that potentially tainted meat koltz fiel Be in restaurant freezers.
Speaker 1: Shame, shame, shame. One airline is hoping to embarrass you
Speaker 1: into sticking to your own boarding group.
Speaker 2: Also this morning, he spent six million dollars for a
Speaker 2: banana duct tape to a wall. He says, now he's
Speaker 2: gonna eat it. We have an update on what is
Speaker 2: the funniest and most frustrating story of the day on
Speaker 2: this Friday.
Speaker 1: I know you can't wait to dig back into that one, TJ.
Speaker 1: All right, But first up on our run we head
Speaker 1: to DC, where Matt Gates is out Pam Bondy is in.
Speaker 1: A head spinning turn of events yesterday set off when
Speaker 1: Trump's pick for Attorney General, Gates abruptly quit, pulling his
Speaker 1: name out of consideration.
Speaker 2: Then in just a matter of ours, Trump announced that
Speaker 2: Pam Bondy, the former Florida Attorney General, is his new pick.
Speaker 2: Bondy is considered a so called Trump loyalist and has
Speaker 2: worked as a lawyer for him for years after serving
Speaker 2: as a prosecutor, and the Florida.
Speaker 1: Aging Republicans are said to be breathing a sigh of
Speaker 1: relief with this new pick, and don't at this point
Speaker 1: think she will face the same type of enormous challenges
Speaker 1: that Gates would have faced. Still, Gates's decision to withdraw
Speaker 1: his name from consideration came as a surprise. First, he
Speaker 1: was all smiles in his meetings with senators just yesterday
Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill. And then second, Trump had publicly stood
Speaker 1: by him despite all of the fervor over Gates's alleged
Speaker 1: sexual misconduct.
Speaker 2: Then he made the announcement himself yesterday on X that
Speaker 2: he was stepping away, and I quote, I had excellent
Speaker 2: meetings with senators yesterday, Gates says. I appreciate their thoughtful
Speaker 2: feedback and the incredible support of so many. While the
Speaker 2: momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was
Speaker 2: unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the
Speaker 2: Trump Vans transition. There is no time to waste on
Speaker 2: a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle. Thus I'll be withdrawing my
Speaker 2: name from consideration to serve as Attorney General.
Speaker 1: Up until the announcement, Trump had personally been calling lawmakers
Speaker 1: to try and secure support for gates confirmation. So then
Speaker 1: what happened to make Gates suddenly withdraw now?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 1: According to CNN, they called Gates team for comment on
Speaker 1: new reporting they had that a seventeen year old testified
Speaker 1: she had sex with Gates on two separate occasions, and
Speaker 1: less than an hour later, Gates withdrew his name.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a detail that had not been out
Speaker 2: there publicly just yet. The president elect said in a
Speaker 2: statement that he appreciated Gates' recent efforts to seek Senate approval,
Speaker 2: and that withdrawing was gates choice, not Trump's choice. Trump
Speaker 2: wrote that Matt has a wonderful future and I look
Speaker 2: forward to watching all of the great things he'll do.
Speaker 1: The House Ethics Committee decided this week not to release
Speaker 1: its findings from its three year investigation into those alleged
Speaker 1: sexual misconduct allegations, among other things. However, many senators believe
Speaker 1: the details from that report would eventually have become a
Speaker 1: public during confirmation hearings. And the question is will it
Speaker 1: become public at all anymore? Because now, yes, one of
Speaker 1: the questions was jurisdiction, because he's a former congressman, So
Speaker 1: what jurisdiction did they have over him? Now is a
Speaker 1: former Attorney general nominee, So is there any reason to
Speaker 1: release the report?
Speaker 2: There seems to be a trickle trickle trickle. Well, I mean,
Speaker 2: it's Washington and all eyes and everybody's hunting this thing down.
Speaker 2: You assumed those details were going to come out. Maybe
Speaker 2: some of them are starting to like we just saw here,
Speaker 2: but it was pretty incredible just boom and to hear
Speaker 2: CNN explain the story. The reporter they called said we're
Speaker 2: going with this in an hour, and they didn't call
Speaker 2: back and say, okay, we're going to give you a comment.
Speaker 2: He just withdrew. So something happened to where they knew
Speaker 2: this was an uphill fight and probably didn't have the votes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and not having the votes is probably a huge
Speaker 1: part of it, I think most even though in a
Speaker 1: Republican controlled Senate, it was pretty clear that he was
Speaker 1: not going to get to that fifty mark. And then
Speaker 1: the question is what happens to his House seat that
Speaker 1: he just re won and just vacated a lot of questions.
Speaker 2: After all this, he could still end up being one
Speaker 2: of their colleagues on Capitol Hill because he did resign
Speaker 2: from Congress. However, he won his seat, so that means
Speaker 2: the seat he resigned from is actually his again in
Speaker 2: January because he was re elected to Congress. So legally speaking,
Speaker 2: they say he can go right back to serving in Congress.
Speaker 1: He can go right back, but if he becomes a
Speaker 1: House member again, then that report is sure to be released,
Speaker 1: so he just probably has to decide if he has
Speaker 1: the stomach for it or not.
Speaker 2: Some this is probably not the last time we were
Speaker 2: going to be covering something related to Matt Gates, is
Speaker 2: what we're trying to say. But let's move on to
Speaker 2: the other big story yesterday that had all the breaking
Speaker 2: news alerts going. This was former Empire actor Jesse Smolette.
Speaker 2: He is no longer a convicted felon.
Speaker 1: The Illinois Supreme Court threw out his twenty twenty one
Speaker 1: conviction for lying about an alleged hate crime. Two years earlier.
Speaker 1: Smollette was found guilty for faking a racist and homophobic
Speaker 1: attack he actually did it to himself, and then lying
Speaker 1: to police about how it happened.
Speaker 2: Initially the charges were first brought against him, the state's
Speaker 2: attorney agreed to dismiss the charges if Smollette paid a
Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars fine and did community service. That was
Speaker 2: the deal. Okay, this was supposed to be over. But
Speaker 2: then the details of that deal were made public and
Speaker 2: there was a huge public outcry because so many folks
Speaker 2: said Smollette was getting a sweet celebrity deal.
Speaker 1: So that's when a special prosecutor was enlisted to reinstate
Speaker 1: those charges, and Smollette was ultimately convicted of felony disorderly
Speaker 1: conduct for falsely reported the non existing crime. Smolett's attorneys
Speaker 1: have maintained that the conviction was a violation of his
Speaker 1: Fifth Amendment rights, and the state Supreme Court agreed. The
Speaker 1: court said it is fundamentally unfair to allow the prosecution
Speaker 1: to renig on a deal with the defendant when the
Speaker 1: defendant has relied on the agreement to his detriment.
Speaker 2: Now, the court acknowledged that a lot of folks were
Speaker 2: upset with the original resolution and believed it to be unjust,
Speaker 2: but said it would be even more unjust if the
Speaker 2: state was not bound to honor its agreements. Smollette was
Speaker 2: sentenced to five months in jail. He served six days
Speaker 2: before he was released on appeal, and his legal team
Speaker 2: thanked the Supreme Court there and said they restored order.
Speaker 2: We have to make clear the conviction was thrown out.
Speaker 2: They made no determination about his guilt or innocence. This is,
Speaker 2: I guess, kind of a technicality, but essentially saying you
Speaker 2: can't make a deal with a guy and then go
Speaker 2: back on it. He never should have been tried that
Speaker 2: second time.
Speaker 1: Correct, And I think the problem is a lot of
Speaker 1: folks believe he never should have been given that sweetheart deal,
Speaker 1: but he was given it and he did accept it.
Speaker 1: And so to the Supreme Court's point, what type of
Speaker 1: system do you have in place if a prosecutor or
Speaker 1: if basically the state of Illinois says that they will
Speaker 1: do something and then they when they hear that people
Speaker 1: are upset about it, they take it away. That doesn't
Speaker 1: seem to be fundamentally legal or fair.
Speaker 2: And he's still at this point. He has always said
Speaker 2: he is not guilty of any of this, but no
Speaker 2: determination has been made here about his guilt or innocence.
Speaker 2: And the state that the folks that prosecute him, made
Speaker 2: that point that this has nothing to do with any
Speaker 2: anything we did wrong or any suggestion of misconduct on
Speaker 2: our part. This is a technicality, and it's hard to
Speaker 2: argue with it.
Speaker 1: No, it is hard to argue with it. I wonder, though,
Speaker 1: what this will do to his already diminished career. I
Speaker 1: don't it doesn't seem like it's not as if he's
Speaker 1: been exonerated. Yes, so I guess that's the point. He
Speaker 1: has not been exonerated. He's just now no longer a
Speaker 1: convicted felon.
Speaker 2: Just kind of a big deal.
Speaker 1: It's definitely a big deal. He and Trump might be
Speaker 1: able to know why why it's Friday. Can just exchange
Speaker 1: stories and kind of commiserate. That's all all right. Next
Speaker 1: up on the run, we have yet another recall involving
Speaker 1: possible E. Coli contamination. So far, fifteen people in the
Speaker 1: state of Minnesota have been sickened. I get this, the
Speaker 1: exact same strain of E. Coli that was found in
Speaker 1: the onions in McDonald's quarter pounders just a few weeks ago.
Speaker 2: What the hell is going on? We talked about one
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy thousand pounds of fresh and frozen ground
Speaker 2: beef products that have been recalled. Now, the products were
Speaker 2: shipped to restaurants around the country. There's some concern that
Speaker 2: some of this ground beef is still in the refrigerators
Speaker 2: and freezers of restaurants all over the place.
Speaker 1: It was the Minnesota Departments of Agriculture and Health that
Speaker 1: first noticed a link between the reported illnesses and ground
Speaker 1: beef from a distributor out of Detroit. So they tested
Speaker 1: a ground beef sample from Wolverine Packing Company and found
Speaker 1: that yep, it contained the same strain of bacteria linked
Speaker 1: to the McDonald's outbreak.
Speaker 2: USDA has the list of affected products and labels. They
Speaker 2: warned that the strain is potentially deadly, especially to children
Speaker 2: under five and older adults. If you're experiencing any symptoms,
Speaker 2: you do need to seek medical attention as soon as
Speaker 2: you can. I just every week, certainly, but for months
Speaker 2: and now it seems like we've been dealing with a
Speaker 2: recoll like serious and deadly outbreaks.
Speaker 1: It's concerning because as the consumer, there's nothing really you
Speaker 1: can do to prevent it. You just have to be
Speaker 1: aware of what the symptoms are, which is fever's, stomach cramping, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea,
Speaker 1: all of those things that are associated with some sort
Speaker 1: of E. Coli contamination. But that's tough because the onus
Speaker 1: is on you then to make sure you seek medical
Speaker 1: attention because it can be serious.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, well stay with us on this Friday
Speaker 2: when we come back and continue our run. The Israeli
Speaker 2: Prime Minister on our wanted poster and one airline is
Speaker 2: going to embarbrash you into sticking with your boarding group.
Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone on our morning run. Next up, Benjamin
Speaker 1: Netanyahu is a wanted man. The International Criminal Court issued
Speaker 1: an arrest warrant for the Israeli Prime Minister, accusing him
Speaker 1: of crimes against humanity.
Speaker 2: That warrants were also issued for the former Israeli Defense
Speaker 2: Minister as well as the Hamas military chief, all for
Speaker 2: the same crimes. They're all accused of human rights abuses
Speaker 2: and war crimes tied to the year long conflict in Gaza,
Speaker 2: which has killed and estimated forty four thousand people.
Speaker 1: The court said the warrants for Netanyahu and the others
Speaker 1: was for quote, crimes against humanity and war crimes, including
Speaker 1: the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare,
Speaker 1: and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other
Speaker 1: inhumane acts. They also suggested that the men are criminally
Speaker 1: responsible for intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population.
Speaker 2: Well. Israel responded and responded strongly to all this, saying
Speaker 2: they reject the arrest warrant quote with disgust and called
Speaker 2: the charges anti Semitic and absurd. So what does this
Speaker 2: mean now? So does this mean that BB is going
Speaker 2: to be hunted down and taken away in handcuffs. Not
Speaker 2: exactly right.
Speaker 1: So, first, the International Criminal Court does not have a
Speaker 1: police or military force to go chase down bib or
Speaker 1: any other suspects. Number two, the United States and Israel
Speaker 1: are not members of the International Criminal Court sochechnically, they
Speaker 1: don't even have jurisdiction over Israel. And there is a
Speaker 1: line of thought, however, that if NETANYAHUO travels to another
Speaker 1: country that is a part of the International Criminal Court,
Speaker 1: that then he could theoretically be taken into.
Speaker 2: Custody theoretically, And the court argues that legally, if he
Speaker 2: travels to another country that is a member of the
Speaker 2: International Criminal Court, that country would be in violation of
Speaker 2: their obligations, legal obligations if they do not arrest and
Speaker 2: take him into custody. Now we have seen I think
Speaker 2: Putin has traveled to places. They also have accused him
Speaker 2: of war crimes or clearly arrested war for him. But
Speaker 2: he has traveled to some places, and the Court says,
Speaker 2: if he travels to your country and you're a member
Speaker 2: of the International Criminal Court, you need to arrest him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what happens if you don't or you're afraid
Speaker 1: to which that would be totally understandable.
Speaker 2: Then whether they're gonna do fine. It seems like this
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of weight behind it, but symbolically
Speaker 2: it's a big deal, and that it's set off a
Speaker 2: really big back and forth and fight about why make
Speaker 2: this move and what member countries are supposed to do
Speaker 2: with it now, But it's interesting, there's a rest ward
Speaker 2: for Israeli prime.
Speaker 1: It's interesting. But the problem is, to the point you
Speaker 1: just made, what is the intention of having a law
Speaker 1: or a rule if it cannot or will not be
Speaker 1: enforced symbolic Perhaps what all that does is just piss
Speaker 1: people off.
Speaker 2: And that's where we are right now.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, happy Friday everyone. Next up on the run,
Speaker 1: let's lighten things up. We have a banana update for you.
Speaker 1: This one made me smile for days now. So we
Speaker 1: told you yesterday about the piece of art called Comedian,
Speaker 1: which is a banana duct tape to a wall that
Speaker 1: sold it southerebe's for more than six million dollars. Well
Speaker 1: we now know who purchased it.
Speaker 2: It's a cryptocurrency billionaire. Justin Sun is the name. He paid.
Speaker 2: Yes for the banana and the duct tape, but he
Speaker 2: was actually paying for the certificate of authenticity to tape
Speaker 2: his very own own banana to the wall and call
Speaker 2: it comedian. You get with us all we're saying here.
Speaker 2: It's not an original, it's an original thought.
Speaker 1: You're buying a concept.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, that's the right about it. You bought an idea,
Speaker 2: So there you go. He was in a battle with
Speaker 2: six others who wanted this thing. He claimed it with
Speaker 2: the highest bid, and he used cryptocurrency to buy it.
Speaker 1: All right, here's what he had to say about his
Speaker 1: win quote, I believe this piece will inspire more thought
Speaker 1: and discussion in the future and will become a part
Speaker 1: of history. I am honored to be the proud owner
Speaker 1: of this iconic work and look forward to its sparking
Speaker 1: further inspiration and impact for art enthusiasts around the world.
Speaker 1: And here's my favorite part of his statement. He let
Speaker 1: everyone know. Yeah, he's going to eat the banana. He says,
Speaker 1: in the coming days, I will personally eat the banana
Speaker 1: as part of this unique artistic experience, honoring its place
Speaker 1: in both art history and popular culture.
Speaker 2: Please keep going. I don't even know. I'm so frustrated.
Speaker 2: I don't want to read this thing.
Speaker 1: And here I just this is, you know, my two cents.
Speaker 1: He can actually continue to eat the bananas on his
Speaker 1: wall as they ripen, because it's not going to change
Speaker 1: the value of his investment. As we were describing it
Speaker 1: being really more of a concept or an idea than
Speaker 1: an actual physical item because banana's rot. So the banana
Speaker 1: on display in Sotheby's wasn't even included in his winnings.
Speaker 1: He actually was given the duct tape and instructions on
Speaker 1: how to install the banana properly. It has to be
Speaker 1: installed at a certain height, et cetera, et cetera. And yes,
Speaker 1: he received the most important part this certificate that guarantees
Speaker 1: when he puts up a new banana each and every
Speaker 1: time on his wall, it will be considered that original
Speaker 1: work of art. Comedian.
Speaker 2: I have a few questions. Do you have to have
Speaker 2: a particular canvas to put it on right any wall?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Really, is you just put it on any wall? In correct?
Speaker 1: I think? Well, I think the instructions might say it
Speaker 1: needs to be a blank wall. It has to be
Speaker 1: like one hundred and thirty centimeters from the floor. I
Speaker 1: don't remember what the exact but there is a measurement
Speaker 1: and like a way to put the duct tape on
Speaker 1: the banana. It's like slightly askew. And they give you
Speaker 1: the instructions and when you follow them, then it's considered
Speaker 1: the original part.
Speaker 2: I assume the tape has to be a certain length
Speaker 2: of those kinds of ye questions. Okay, can it be
Speaker 2: a plantain?
Speaker 1: No? I think it needs to be a banana? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but thanks for checking?
Speaker 2: How far does it have to be ripened?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 2: How yellow? Does it get too brown? What do you do?
Speaker 1: I think you need to replace it?
Speaker 2: Does it say nothing? Else? Is just a piece of tape.
Speaker 2: He can walk around with this in his pocket. He
Speaker 2: could stop at an airport as he's waiting for his flight,
Speaker 2: and if there's a white wall, he can display Comedian
Speaker 2: right there anywhere.
Speaker 1: I guess possibly, yes, I mean theoretically, I like that
Speaker 1: word today. I think you probably could if you have
Speaker 1: a measuring tape and you can like actually put it
Speaker 1: in the place it's supposed to be sure?
Speaker 2: Last question? Could this be valued at six million dollars?
Speaker 2: Without social media? What I mean is became some kind
Speaker 2: of a sensation that people were talking about, and it
Speaker 2: got going and it was trending in all of these things.
Speaker 2: But if we didn't have the ability for it to
Speaker 2: go worldwide, it was just in this gallery here, in
Speaker 2: that gallery there, and people scratching their heads. It just
Speaker 2: became something we buzzed and talked and even laughed about.
Speaker 2: Is it still a valuable piece of art without social media?
Speaker 1: As long as it was drawing crowds in the display,
Speaker 1: then there's value to it. Maybe not six million dollars,
Speaker 1: but it was originally, by the way, valued at one
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty thousand dollars. Then it was valued at
Speaker 1: about a million dollars, and then really the value is
Speaker 1: what someone's willing to pay, and apparently at six point
Speaker 1: two four million.
Speaker 2: Two dollars a pound. I give bananas two dollars a pound.
Speaker 1: You're not understanding art, TJ. All right, our final leg
Speaker 1: of the run. This is this is also a favorite
Speaker 1: story of mind. Just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday
Speaker 1: travel rush, American Airlines has officially implemented new technology to
Speaker 1: stop line cutting.
Speaker 2: We're talking to you. You know, folks, know who you are.
Speaker 1: You might be among them who try to board the
Speaker 1: plane early before your assigned group.
Speaker 2: Okay, so get this now the gate agents and the passengers,
Speaker 2: you're all gonna hear an audible sound. There's gonna be
Speaker 2: an alert kound of that goes off if someone scans
Speaker 2: their boarding pass prematurely, and anyone who tries to sneak
Speaker 2: on a little faster is going to be sent back
Speaker 2: and asked to wait their turn.
Speaker 1: As a rule follower myself, I applaud this. But for
Speaker 1: those who don't, shame, shame, shame. Yes, we are talking
Speaker 1: game of throne shame. The technology is now being used
Speaker 1: in more than one hundred airports across the US. There
Speaker 1: are plans to bring it to all of them, but
Speaker 1: the airline says the initial response from customers and their
Speaker 1: employees has quote exceeded our expectations. One of the anticipated
Speaker 1: benefits of the technology cutting down on, oh, you know them,
Speaker 1: the crowds of people who gather and hover near the gate,
Speaker 1: trying to figure out what line they want to get in,
Speaker 1: how they get their way quickest up to the front.
Speaker 1: You know how confusing and congested that can get. Well,
Speaker 1: there's a term for these folks. Did you know that?
Speaker 2: Teaj This first time I heard it was in this
Speaker 2: story gate lice. You want to be gate lice. That's gross.
Speaker 1: It's gross, but it's kind of like accurate.
Speaker 2: Uh well, yeah, I didn't know that was the term.
Speaker 2: But American is thrilled to have this in place. They
Speaker 2: plan to fly more than eight million people over to
Speaker 2: the Thanksgiving holiday, so this is something you are going
Speaker 2: to notice. I think this is a great idea. It
Speaker 2: takes some of the pressure off of the gate agents
Speaker 2: to have to tell somebody, Noe, you gotta go go back,
Speaker 2: your group is not ready yet, and then it often
Speaker 2: it can start a confrontation. Everybody's frustrating the airport usually,
Speaker 2: so this takes some weight off themselves.
Speaker 1: And look, I understand the reason why everyone tries to
Speaker 1: get on the plane first is because you know, they
Speaker 1: always run out of the overhead space, and so when
Speaker 1: they run out of the overhead space, you have to
Speaker 1: check your luggage. It creates a lot of problems. So
Speaker 1: a lot of folks are like, Hey, I'm gonna try
Speaker 1: to get in early because I want my luggage to
Speaker 1: be with me. I get that there are ten boarding
Speaker 1: groups American airlines, so if you know you're anything past five,
Speaker 1: you know your bag's not getting on that plane.
Speaker 2: But here's the thing. Airlines are fixing a problem that
Speaker 2: they created. When you start telling people we're gonna charge
Speaker 2: you to check your bag, now everybody. Some people love
Speaker 2: to keep their bags with them, and that's fine, but everybody,
Speaker 2: you see how people got a stuff stuff in it's
Speaker 2: saved twenty five or fifty bucks or checking we're checking
Speaker 2: in a bag. They put us in this position to
Speaker 2: where we're scrambling. Oh, I gotta get that overhead space.
Speaker 2: And now they're trying to solve a problem they created. Okay, fine,
Speaker 2: but to embarrassed. I can'tnot wait. We don't fly American much. No,
Speaker 2: I just want to go past some American gates. Now,
Speaker 2: you know what I want them to do.
Speaker 1: Find a way to implement this on on when you're
Speaker 1: trying to make a turn and people in like highways
Speaker 1: try to cut you off. They go in the line
Speaker 1: and then you can't make the turn and it backs
Speaker 1: everybody up. You could have some way to embarrass those folks.
Speaker 2: I would love that.
Speaker 1: Wow, line cutters are annoying.
Speaker 2: Okay, we we should turn this to a segment. Rope says,
Speaker 2: gotta be Friday. Folks on this. I hope you don't
Speaker 2: have any beef hope you have a great, great Friday.
Speaker 2: But as you go about your day and then until
Speaker 2: your weekend, there's something we like you to consider, and
Speaker 2: it is our quote of the day.
Speaker 1: We need to know the difference between the fears that
Speaker 1: keep us alive and the fears that keep us from living.
Speaker 1: This came from your file, TJ. I didn't look to
Speaker 1: see who said this.
Speaker 2: Do you know this one didn't have a name attached
Speaker 2: to it is I'm assuming it was my pastor and
Speaker 2: something I wrote down one of us sermons. But I
Speaker 2: love it. Yes, there are healthy fears. There are healthy
Speaker 2: fears of certain things that you should have. A fear
Speaker 2: of traffic and right you don't walk out. That keeps
Speaker 2: you alive. But what are you scared of getting your
Speaker 2: heart broken? Are you scared of maybe being rejected and
Speaker 2: not getting the job. But what are the things that
Speaker 2: you are feared that keep you from doing something that
Speaker 2: is you living?
Speaker 1: Yeah, fear of failure, I think is probably one of
Speaker 1: the biggest things that hold holds people back and holds
Speaker 1: all of us back. And I think it's just I
Speaker 1: always said this fear either cripples you or motivates you.
Speaker 1: And to know the difference between you know, what is
Speaker 1: real and what is presumed is a big difference.
Speaker 2: You know, take that one with you this weekend. We
Speaker 2: need to know the difference between the fears that keep
Speaker 2: us alive and the fears that keep us from living.
Speaker 2: I hope you do some good living to this weekend, folks.
Speaker 2: We always appreciate you running with us.
Speaker 1: So I'm t J and I'm Amy Robot. Have a
Speaker 1: wonderful weekend, everyone,
