1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 1: morning everyone. It is Tuesday, March seventeenth. Happy Saint Patrick's Day, everybody.

3
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. Happy Saint Patrick's Day. Yes,

4
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 2: and I don't think bro, We're about to do something

5
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 2: right now that I don't think we've ever done in

6
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 2: harm professional careers. We're going to ask each and every

7
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 2: one of you to call your congressmen and congresswomen and

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: tell them to pay the TSA agents.

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 3: It's out of control.

10
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: This robes, this is come on, okay, just you got

11
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 2: to pay the TSA agents. Everything else you'll knock yourselves out.

12
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 2: You gotta pay these.

13
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 1: Fots, whatever it takes, whatever fund you have to dip into.

14
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: This is absolutely wildly not even unfair, but this is

15
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: life changing. People aren't able to put food on the table.

16
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: They aren't able to pay their bills. Can you imagine

17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: the anxiety and the stress not about even missing one paycheck,

18
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: but not knowing when your next paycheck is coming, and

19
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 1: watching the news and seeing zero zero movement in the

20
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: direction you needed to go for you to get paid

21
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: for working keeping airports and air travel safe. It's one

22
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: of the most important jobs a person can have.

23
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 2: That's what they tell us. These are the people our

24
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 2: last line of defense, sometimes against us in a terrorist act,

25
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 2: to keep us safe, and we won't pay them. Just

26
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 2: this has gone. This is too much and too far again.

27
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,199
Speaker 2: We were talking about it beforehand here as we start

28
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,639
Speaker 2: the morning run, and just that is a that should

29
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 2: just be said and beat that into anybody's heads. You can,

30
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: you gotta pay these folks. But good morning to you

31
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 2: all on this Tuesday. We're gonna be making stops all

32
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: over the place today. Certainly yes, at the nation's airports.

33
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 2: We're actually gonna give you some updated numbers about what's

34
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 2: going on with TSA agents. But we'll also be making

35
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: stops in Park City, Utah, in Ukraine and Cuba and Florida,

36
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: in Harlem in DC, as well as Miami. What we

37
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 2: need to start with the war in Iran and some updates,

38
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: yes from the President, but also from the battlefield even today.

39
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: That's right, and a number of European countries holding firm

40
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: against President Trump's threat that they get involved in the

41
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: war with Iran or else. Specifically, these countries are rejecting

42
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: President Trump's insistence that they assist in securing the all

43
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: important Strait of hormonodes.

44
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: Some countries like Germany, I've come out and flatly said

45
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: this is not our war. Trump has threatened that it'll

46
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 2: be bad for NATO nations if they don't help out.

47
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 2: He didn't say exactly what that means, however. Yes.

48
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: So meanwhile, President Trump again yesterday said that the war

49
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: with Iran will be over soon, but didn't give any specifics.

50
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: And then Iran now continues to trade shots with Israel

51
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: and the United States, including now targeting a US base

52
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: in Baghdad. And there has been a significant development this morning.

53
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: Israel now says it has killed Iran's top security official,

54
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: Ali Larajani. He was widely seen as the guy running

55
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: the country since the Supreme Leader's death, so that would

56
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: be a significant development.

57
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 2: This was the guy we talked about as soon as

58
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: the Supreme Leader died. We said, get used to this name.

59
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 2: You're going to be hearing it a lot. He was

60
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: the guy, and now they're saying that guy is gone.

61
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 2: Continuing here on Lauran, at least one former president agrees

62
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: with President Trump's decision to go to war with Iran.

63
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: That's according to President Trump. He said yesterday that one

64
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 2: of his predecessors has privately told him that he regretted

65
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 2: not doing what Trump is doing now in Iran.

66
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: Here are Trump's exact words. I've spoken to a certain

67
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: president who I like, actually a past president, a former president.

68
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: I wish I did it. I wish I did, but

69
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: they didn't do it. I'm doing it. So which former

70
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: president is he talking about? We don't know, and Trump

71
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't say, but get.

72
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: This all for living former presidents have said, what mean

73
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: the eighth he is reporting? They reached out to representatives

74
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 2: for each of the former presidents Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden,

75
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 2: and all of them said they haven't even spoken to

76
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: Trump recently at all. So take that, Howard you like crops?

77
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 3: Wow? All right? Well, next up on the run.

78
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: Speaking of next, Cuba is apparently next on our list

79
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: of countries to take over. This isn't a prediction, that's

80
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: not us reading the tea leaves. Rather, this is exactly

81
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: what the President of the United States said yesterday.

82
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 3: Did we rewind it?

83
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: Yes, this is one we do that a lot. We

84
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 2: took it and speak. Did he just say? Yeah? So

85
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 2: he was in the Oval Office taking questions from reporters,

86
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 2: and he said, quote, I do believe I'll be having

87
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 2: the honor of taking Cuba. It's a big honor taking

88
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 2: Cuba in some form. Yeah, whether I free it or

89
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: take it, I can do anything I want with it,

90
00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 2: to tell you the truth. Who, Yes, exactly.

91
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: I'm literally speechless because where how have we gotten to

92
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 1: a point where that can just be said and we

93
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: all just kind of say, there he goes again.

94
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 2: Conquering the world, Greenland, Canada, Cuba, Venezuela, Iran. Yeah. I

95
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 2: mean I don't think he wants them to join us,

96
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 2: but these are places he's talking about adding as a

97
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 2: fifty first state as a part of the United States,

98
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 2: will take their oil. Yeah. And we have continuing here

99
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: on about Ron now the White House to your staff,

100
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 2: Roll diagnosed with breast cancer. This came out yesterday. I

101
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 2: know you looked into this story and please help me

102
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 2: understand exactly what it means. Says it was caught early

103
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 2: and she's going to keep working.

104
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: Look, look, the technology and the advancements have been made

105
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: in the last ten years have been remarkable for breast cancer.

106
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: So yes, Susie Wiles made the announcement. She said it

107
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: was caught in its early stages. We don't know exactly

108
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 1: the details, but now days, if they get it early enough,

109
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: that's basically you can have targeted treatment where you might

110
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: just need surgery and no chemo. A lot of women

111
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: now don't have to have chemo because they can truly

112
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: look and see where it is, how much is developed,

113
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: and what type of cancer it is, and.

114
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 3: What stage it is.

115
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: So the sixty eight year old says she plans to

116
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: keep on working while going through treatment. And I will

117
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: say it can be done, based on the kinds of

118
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 1: chemo you've had. I didn't miss a day of work either.

119
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: It's not easy, but it can be done. And I'm

120
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: sure she will feel the love in the support of

121
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: so many women and men frankly who understand what this

122
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: disease can do. And yes, that support means everything, and

123
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: we wish her the very best.

124
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 2: Thought that was cool in her statement saying, yes, a

125
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 2: lot of women continue to work after a breast cancer diagnosis.

126
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 2: I am among them. Now, I love it.

127
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 3: I thought that was cool, very cool, all right? Next

128
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 3: up on the run, very awkward.

129
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 2: We watched this, love this.

130
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: We might have rewinded this one too. I think we

131
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: did all right? Did any of you see this moment?

132
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 3: Yesterday?

133
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: President Trump publicly revealed that a previously unknown terminal diagnosis

134
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: of a member of Congress.

135
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 3: He had him.

136
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: Named and wanted Mike Johnson to give all the details.

137
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: This was blurted out in a bizarre moment. He was

138
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 2: talking about Florida Congressman Neil Dunn. Now he has already

139
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 2: announced that he's retiring from Congress, but the full details

140
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 2: of the seventy three year old's health wasn't known until

141
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: the President stepped in it yesterday at a press event

142
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 2: completely unrelated. They were talking about something else, but a

143
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 2: lot of folks sitting around at tables, and the President

144
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: starts talking about this. Trump was telling a story of

145
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 2: stepping in to help the congressman get access to some

146
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 2: medical treatment because he was having some medical issues, and

147
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: revealed that Donne has only been given months to live

148
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 2: and Mike Johnson is sitting right next to him. Mike

149
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: Johnson was the one who, I guess initially brought all

150
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,559
Speaker 2: of this to the president, So the President was trying

151
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 2: to he thought it was a cool story.

152
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: He thought it was a cool story because he's the

153
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: hero of the story. He gave well, in his words,

154
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: he gave this congressman access to the best medical care

155
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: possible at Walter Reed and so yes, Mike Johnson, who

156
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: was absolutely prompted, said okay, well that wasn't public, but yeah, okay,

157
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: it was grim That's what I was going to say.

158
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: They went on to say that he's now doing really well.

159
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: But the other awkward part about this is that the

160
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: President was talking about it in the context of needing

161
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: to have the right numbers in the balance of Congress

162
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: and kind of talked of him as like a number,

163
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: like a Republican number that we're gonna lose because he

164
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: was dying.

165
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 3: It was really cavalier. It was really hard to watch

166
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 3: and listen to.

167
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: Well, I forgot about that part of it, but you're right.

168
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: It was essentially I want to save his life because

169
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: I need his number too, I need his vote, I

170
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 2: need his vote. And the President said that on more

171
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 2: than one occasion during this I forgot about that. And

172
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,599
Speaker 2: Mike Johnson, who I always give credit roles, I'm like,

173
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: he has the toughest job, but he seems to keep

174
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: a cool head. I'm not used to seeing him getting

175
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: that uncomfortable.

176
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 3: He got uncomfortable.

177
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's continuing on the run here now. Things are Yes,

178
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 2: we talked about this at the top, but it seems

179
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: to be getting worse at the nation's airports as the

180
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 2: partial government shutdown has now gone past a month.

181
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: Yes, TSA workers Friday missed their first full paycheck since

182
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: the shutdown, and now they're calling out sick and quitting

183
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: at even higher numbers. More than three hundred and fifty

184
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: agents have actually quit completely. Said enough of this in

185
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 1: the past month alone.

186
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 2: And you've seen all the pictures folks with the security line. Certainly,

187
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 2: if you're flying, you need to call ahead, excuse me,

188
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 2: look ahead at least and see what the security looks like.

189
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 2: And they are telling folks in places not just two,

190
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: not just three, but in some cases four and five hours,

191
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 2: you need to get to the airport ahead of time.

192
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 2: Hobby Airport is having a very difficult time. But they're

193
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 2: talking about fifty five percent of their workers on some

194
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 2: days are calling out sick. Half of your security workers

195
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: that are keeping us safe in the skies call out sick.

196
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: And it's impossible.

197
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: Look, we're traveling next week. We haven't traveled since the

198
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: government shutdown, but certainly we know people who have and

199
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: everyone has come back with nightmare scenarios from the airport.

200
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: Do we even know why? I remember why this is happening?

201
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, by Minneapolis. Because of Minneapolis Democrats are refusing

202
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 2: to fund ICE, which is a part of DHS. TSA

203
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 2: is a part of DHS.

204
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: And here we are, and just for another fun little asterisk,

205
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: ICE is getting paid through twenty twenty seven. So all

206
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: of this and ICE is still being paid even though

207
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: TSA workers aren't.

208
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 3: So ICE is being paid. TSA workers aren't.

209
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: Not great job lawmakers, all right. Next up on the run,

210
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: The Kennedy Center will close for two years. The board

211
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 1: made it official yesterday, voting unanimously to close the performing

212
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: arts center, essentially doing what Trump said he wanted to happen.

213
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 2: He said it needed renovations and the best way to

214
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 2: do it is to close the place for two years.

215
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 2: That is happening now.

216
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 3: Ooh, all right. Next up on the run. Guilty on

217
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 3: all counts.

218

Speaker 2: Yeah, Jury and d so called grief author murder Trialing

220
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,119
Speaker 2: trial for murdering her husband by giving him a fentanyl

221
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: laced drink.

222

Speaker 1: The jury founder guilty of all charges, including aggravated murder

223
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: and attempted aggravated murder. Her sentencing date is now in May,

224
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: and she is facing up to life in prison. We

225
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: go over all the details of what happened in that

226
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: court room. It was a surprise verdict late at night,

227
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: so please check that out. It's the episode right before

228
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 1: morning run. It was a fascinating day in court, all right.

229
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 2: Continuing on the run here now we'll head down to Florida,

230
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 2: where tonight that state is scheduled to carry out its

231
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 2: fourth execution of the year. Michael Lee King was convicted

232
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 2: for the two thousand and eight kidnapping and murder of

233
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 2: a young mother.

234
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: The fifty four year old will receive a lethal injection

235
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: tonight at six pm. The Supreme Court has rejected his

236
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 1: appeals and the victim, this young mother, her entire family,

237
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: plans to be there tonight. They say they have waited

238
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: for this for nearly twenty years and.

239
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 2: Nothing at this point. Supreme Court not getting involved. This

240
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: is not one where you can expect the governor to

241
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: have that phone ringing on the wall.

242
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: Governor DeSantis really wouldn't be the governor. I would ever

243
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: expect to do that.

244
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 2: Not that guy. All right, stay with us on this

245
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,559
Speaker 2: Tuesday Morning run when we come back, we're saying goodbye

246
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 2: to a legend that was a part of some of

247
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 2: our households every single week as we were growing up,

248
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 2: sticking around for that. Also Sean Penn missing from the

249
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 2: oscars but showed up. And one President's office we'll explain,

250
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 2: and the USA versus Venezuela in baseball. We continue now

251
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 2: on this Tuesday Morning run by saying goodbye to someone

252
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 2: who is absolutely legendary, someone that I loved growing up,

253
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 2: Miss ki Ki Shepherd. Not sure how familiar that name

254
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 2: is to a lot of people Robed but she passed

255
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 2: away at seventy four unexpectedly according to her family, and

256
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 2: she was a part of one of the all time

257
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 2: classic great entertainment shows in Black entertainment history.

258
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: Yes, Shepherd has an undeniable and indelible place in Black

259
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: entertainment history. She was the longtime host of the Showtime

260
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: at the Apollo. Now I told you I know of

261
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: the show. I've heard of the show, never watched it,

262
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: and certainly didn't know who Kiki Shephard was.

263
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, So this was a part of a showcase.

264
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: If you don't know, it was on for decades. It

265
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 2: was a staple in many black households. Gave up and

266
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 2: coming black artists as well as established artists a showcase

267
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 2: that they might not otherwise be able to get happening

268
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 2: at the Apollo, the famed Apollo Theater in Harlem. It

269
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: was a thing. All the amateurs came out. There was

270
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 2: a wooden log they all have to rub their hands

271
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 2: on for luck when they come out. And the audience, yes,

272
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: the Harlem audience decided whether or not somebody was good

273
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: or bad, and they got to vote. And in the

274
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 2: middle of people's performances they get booed right off and

275
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 2: come get shuffled off.

276
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 3: Of a guy who that sounds like the Gong show.

277
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 2: Don't know that.

278
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 3: One, see that was the white version.

279
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 2: Oh wow, this don't muddy the waters here. Let us

280
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 2: have our moment. It was just a stable and it

281
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 2: was important because it wasn't a lot of showcases for

282
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 2: black talent like that. So Kiky Shepherd rest in peace,

283
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 2: dear lady.

284
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: All right, well, we will now move on now to

285
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: the next leg of our run, where we do now

286
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: have an answer as to why Sean Penn was not

287
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: at the OSCARS.

288
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 3: Turns out he was actually in a war zone.

289
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 2: Yes, this was a cool moment, I say cool. Excuse me.

290
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: Kieran Coulkin made it kind of a funny moment. But

291
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 2: he was up there announcing the winner for a Best

292
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 2: Supporting Actor and he said Seanpinn's name. Seanpin wasn't there

293
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 2: and rose We gave him credit at the time for

294
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 2: having he seemed to have the right line. I didn't

295
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 2: think it was that much of an insult, was it.

296
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 3: I thought it was funny because he said what everybody

297
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 3: he was thinking.

298
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: Yes, there it is. He said, Sean Ben either couldn't

299
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 2: be or didn't want to be here. That's funny. And

300
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 2: it appears Sean Penn was busy and way away in Ukraine.

301
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: So President Zelenski himself posted a picture of the two

302
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: men meeting, saying Penn was a true friend to Ukraine. Look,

303
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: this has been a big passion project of his. He's

304
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: been very outspoken Sean Penn has about his support for Ukraine.

305
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: So he was where exactly where he wanted to be

306
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: that evening.

307
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 2: And you know what, who could argue that that's not

308
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: a more important cause than picking up a trophy in Hollywood.

309
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: Hey, we're talking about Ukraine. We're talking about President Zelenski.

310
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: So if that was part of what he was hoping for,

311
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: he achieved it.

312
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 2: All. Right, final leg of our run here on this

313
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, the USA versus Venezuela in baseball. Have you

Speaker 1: I would say, I don't know baseball stats, but I

329
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: would have just just I don't know.

330
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 3: I would have said slim to none.

331

00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 3: I guess how.

349
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,040

00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 3: Who are all saying hell no, we don't want to go.

352
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: Yes, all right, Look, lots of lots of negativity in

353
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: the world can get us all down.

354
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 3: I liked this quote.

355
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: It's simple and it's a reminder some of the best

356
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 1: times in your life haven't happened yet.

357
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 2: I hope, So I certainly hope.

358
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 3: So don't take them, don't take the wind out of

359
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 3: my sails off. Wait, what's what's tattooed on your arm?

360
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: That quote? It should be?

361
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: Oh?

362
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 3: I was like, I haven't seen that.

363
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 2: Keep it away because it seems depressent.

364
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: I feel like you might need to look at it repeatedly.

365
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: But this is this is a way we always reminisce.

366
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,719
Speaker 1: I think we always maybe even remember things fonder than

367
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 1: they actually were. And that's not a bad thing, but

368
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: it gets us thinking, you know, the best of my

369
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 1: life is behind me, and you know, you start to

370
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: get like worried about the future, depressed it will never

371
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 1: be the way it was, or whatever. I just think

372
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: it's a reminder that just stop trying to control the

373
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: outcome and stop worrying about what might or might not happen,

374
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 1: because good things can still happen and not can will

375
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 1: good things will still happen. So some of the best

376
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: times in your life haven't happened yet.

377
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 3: You don't seem like you believe that that's great.

378
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 2: Now, that's great. You know, it's forward looking, it's optimistic.

379
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 2: Everything up to this point doesn't even matter. Who cares

380
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 2: life has been terrible. Good stuff is coming. The past

381
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 2: stuff it's coming is yet to come. All even the

382
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 2: stuff in the past that was good, it wasn't really

383
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 2: that good because the better stuff is coming. This is fantastic.

384
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: You know what, though, Look, I think when you see

385
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: these bright eyed, bushy tailed interns kids my girl's age,

386
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: and they are so hopeful and so excited because they

387
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: got their whole lives to look forward to. You get

388
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 1: to a certain point in your life and you start

389
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 1: thinking the opposite. You look at people's faces walking around,

390
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: sitting on the subway.

391
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: People look sad and defeated.

392
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: Oftentimes, and I'm laughing because if we can just turn

393
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: our heads around and remember it's not over.

394
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 3: It's not over people.

395
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, that's great. I'm so sorry. I took a

396
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 2: little what do you say, a little?

397
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: You took a lot of wind out of myself. Some

398
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: of the best times in your life haven't happened yet,

399
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: So go enjoy it. Look forward to life, be excited,

400
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: be enthusiastic.

401
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 3: And with that, everyone, thank you for running with us.
