1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,239
Speaker 1: morning everyone, It's Monday, March seventeenth. Welcome to your Morning Run.

3
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robot.

4
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 3: And I'm TJ Holmes. So we're heading out on our

5
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,119
Speaker 3: run this morning with you. But Robes, we saw a

6
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 3: pretty impressive run yesterday here in La the Los Angeles Marathon.

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 3: We should say congratulations to Matt Rickman, the first American

8
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 3: who's won this race in some three decades. And we

9
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 3: watched it happen.

10
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 2: It was remarkable.

11
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: Not only do we watch it on our television, but

12
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 1: we actually had a bird's eye view. Our hotel where

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: we're staying happened to be right along the marathon route.

14
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: And it's pretty cool to.

15
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,879
Speaker 1: Watch all those runners do their thing and to be

16
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: able to cheer them on.

17
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 3: So congratulations so all of them. But we are going

18
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 3: to go out on our run this morning with you.

19
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 3: And on the run, that massive deadly cross country storm

20
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 3: is finally moving offshore today, but dozens are dead in

21
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: its wake.

22
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: Plus, the Trump administration deported hundreds of Venice Whitland immigrants

23
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: after a judge said they could not, and is now

24
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: demanding they'd be returned to the US.

25
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 3: Plus could there be a ceasefire announcement this week? President

26
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 3: Trump says he'll talk to President Putin tomorrow and hopes

27
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 3: to have something to announce.

28
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: Also on the run this morning, a horrific scene in

29
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: the middle of Times Square, a man deliberately set on

30
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: fire and the man who did it remains on the loose.

31
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 3: And the Vatican finally releases the first photo of Pope

32
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 3: Francis since he's admitted to the hospital more than a

33
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: month ago. But does the photo raise even more questions?

34
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: Plus those American astronauts stuck in space for more than

35
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,559
Speaker 1: nine months, while they may finally be back on Earth

36
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: as soon as tomorrow.

37
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 3: And get the brackets already, marsh Madden, It starts this week.

38
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 3: And Happy Saint Patrick's Day, everybody. And did you know

39
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 3: Patrick wasn't even Irish. I'm going to get into some

40
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 3: of this history and folklore this morning and just a bit.

41
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait for that, But we have to begin

42
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: our Monday morning run with the deadly weather system that

43
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: has affected more than one hundred million Americans. As of

44
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: this recording, at least forty people have been killed across

45
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: six states after violent tornadoes and dust storms tour through

46
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: the US and high.

47
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 2: Winds span more than one hundred wildfires.

48
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 3: So the Storm Prediction Center is reporting some seventy five

49
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 3: preliminary tornadoes in seven states since Friday. Those tornadoes killed

50
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 3: at least twenty four people, and then dust storms led

51
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 3: to crashes that killed another sixteen people in Kansas, Oklahoma,

52
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 3: and Texas.

53
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: President Trump released a statement yesterday saying his office was

54
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: monitoring the tornadoes and storms and deploying the National Guard

55
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: where necessary. Trump writing this, my administration is ready to

56
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 1: assist state and local officials as they helped their communities

57
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: try and recover from the damage. Please join Milania and

58
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: me in praying for everyone impacted by these terrible storms

59
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: and folks.

60
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 3: Some travelers were impacted as well. There was a ground

61
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 3: stop at Tampa's airport Sunday because of the storms, and

62
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 3: hundreds of flights were canceled in Orlando during the busiest

63
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 3: weekend of Spring break travel. Airport delays stretched up and

64
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 3: down the East coast Florida to New York. Torrential rains

65
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 3: and high winds all reported.

66
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the storm is not quite over yet. The

67
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: National Weather Service is still warning of winds up to

68
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: fifty five miles per hour in central Florida this morning.

69
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,399
Speaker 2: Thankfully.

70
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: Look though, this system is moving offshore later today, but

71
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: what a wake it leaves behind.

72
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 3: All Right, we'll continue our run this morning with a question.

73
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: Did the Trump administration blatantly ignore a judge's order? Yes,

74
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 3: that is the question being asked this morning after the

75
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 3: White House announced Sunday it had deported hundreds of Venezuelans.

76
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 3: This was a day after a federal judge order their

77
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 3: administration not to deport those same Venezuelans.

78
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: Well, the White House contends they are members of a

79
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: Venezuelan gang and that the President has the authority to

80
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: remove them under the Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight,

81
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: a rarely used law which allows the government to kick

82
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: people out of the country without due process. By the way,

83
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: this rarely used law has not been used since World

84
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: War II.

85
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 3: Okay, but soon after the President invoked the law, a

86
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: judge issued a restraining order saying the deportation should not happen,

87
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 3: and saying any plane containing these folks that is going

88
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 3: to take all force in the air needs to be

89
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 3: returned to the United States. Well, that did not happen.

90
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: But the White House claims they didn't violate the judges

91
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: order simply because the judges order came too late. The

92
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: Administration says the immigrants were already out of US territory

93
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: when the order came and no longer under the jurisdiction

94
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 1: of the court. The Venezuelans were actually taken to El

95
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: Salvador to be housed in prisons there. But it remains

96
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: to be seen if the oops too late works legally.

97
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 3: It's one that you could possibly see where there was

98
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 3: a miscommunication, it didn't get to the plane in time,

99
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 3: or something else. But the president of l Salvador actually

100
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 3: put out a statement on social media almost making fun

101
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: of the George's order. Judge's order, and that was the quote,

102
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 3: and I'm quoting Oopsy too late now I added the

103
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 3: voice but which made me laugh. That was the quote,

104
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 3: Oopsie too late. So it seemed that they were mocking

105
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 3: the judge's order. But they're gone. It's yet to be

106
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 3: seen if they are even able to legally be brought back.

107
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 2: And what could the judge actually do. It doesn't really

108
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 2: make any sense.

109
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 3: At this point. Well, we will tell you on the

110
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 3: run this morning, and get this. We may be getting

111
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 3: close to a ceasefire deal between Russia and Ukraine. But

112
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 3: President Trump told reporters on Air Force one last night

113
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 3: he is speaking with President Putin of Russia tomorrow and

114
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 3: hopes he will quote have something to announce afterwards.

115
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: That's right, Trump said, a lot of work has been

116
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: done over the weekend to try and bring this war

117
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: to an end. Trump acknowledged that land and power plants

118
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: are going to be a big part of the conversation

119
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: about ending the conflict, saying the two countries will have

120
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: to divide up certain assets. But he said this a

121
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: lot of discussion has already happened on those issues.

122
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 3: When the President's Special envoy to the Middle East said

123
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 3: he had a positive meeting with Putin last week and

124
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 3: without giving specific said the two sides were able to

125
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 3: narrow the differences between them. So stand by for that.

126
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 2: All right, looking forward to that.

127
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, though, we have to head

128
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: to Manhattan for a just an unthinkably awful story. There

129
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: was a horrific scene over the weekend in the middle

130
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: of Times Square. A forty five year old man was

131
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: deliberately set on fire.

132
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 3: And the suspect is still on the loose. Police are

133
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 3: looking for him, but they say this person first threw

134
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 3: a liquid on the man and let him on fire.

135
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 3: Officers were on duty there because the New York City

136
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 3: half marathon was taking place yesterday. They saw the man

137
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 3: on fire were able to use a fire extinguisher from

138
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 3: their vehicle to put him out.

139
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, thankfully they were right there, just a block away.

140
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: Investigators don't believe this was a random attack. Camera footage

141
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: shows that the victim and the suspect appeared to know

142
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: one another and right now I'm not really sure the

143
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: reason why. But police are not releasing the name of

144
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: the victim at this point.

145
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: Okay, he was taken to the hospital stable condition, burns

146
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 3: to his face and arms, but expected to survive. This

147
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 3: all happened around four in the morning. Police say they

148
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 3: are looking through surveillance video try to locate this suspect,

149
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 3: and so far they've only said he was wearing blue clothing.

150
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: They haven't released more details than that.

151
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we will try to keep you updated on

152
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: that one. But next on the run, we're going to

153
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: head to Rome, where the Vatican released the first photo

154
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: of Pope Francis since he was admitted to the hospital.

155
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: More than a month ago.

156
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 3: So it's a still photo that shows the eighty eight

157
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 3: year old pontiff kind of slightly slumped in his wheelchair

158
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 3: in front of it alter. Now the picture is taken

159
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 3: from behind behind him to his right, over his shoulder.

160
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 3: If you will that, you can imagine that, so you

161
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: kind of see a slight profile of the pope. You

162
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 3: can't I couldn't robes, couldn't really tell if his eyes

163
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 3: were opened or closed. You have to kind of zoom

164
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 3: in and try to figure that out from the sign.

165
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: You absolutely could not tell. I mean I tried to

166
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: zoom in so it. Yeah, you couldn't tell if he

167
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: was awake or asleep.

168
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 2: You couldn't see his facial expression. It was just basically

169
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: the back of him.

170
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 3: And this was in a private chapel of the poet's

171
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 3: tenth floor apartment at the hospital is where the photo

172
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 3: was taken.

173
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 2: Other people have made note of this.

174
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: There were no signs of tubes or an oxygen mask,

175
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: because we've been getting those daily reports that he has

176
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: oxygen through his nasal passages during the day he wears

177
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: a mask at night. None of that was visible. There

178
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: was no one else present in the photo. And the

179
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: identity of the photographer was also not disclosed, so still.

180
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 2: A lot of mystery.

181
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: People are still speculating, So it's unclear how far this

182
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: photo will go and calming the concerns many have expressed

183
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: it not seeing the Pope since he was admitted to

184
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: the hospital on February fourteenth.

185
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, he's been suffering from double pneumonia and

186
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: after dealing with several setbacks, has reportedly been improving, with

187
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 3: chest eck rays and blood work confirming his progress. The

188
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 3: Vatican has not given any indication when the Pope might

189
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 3: be released from the hospital. It almost seemed like they

190
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: were mocking the public. Everybody's been begging want to see

191
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 3: the guy. What people are asking for is literally a

192
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 3: proof of life. They are absolutely begging somebody please show

193
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 3: us that the prope is alive. And that's what they

194
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: put out.

195
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: The truth is this, I mean, that picture did not

196
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: prove to me or to anyone who looked at it

197
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: that the Pope is I mean, look, we have to

198
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: take the Vatican at its work, and we are and

199
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: we absolutely are so want to make that clear. But

200
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: for the conspiracy theorist, that photo did not prove that

201
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: he is alive. I just don't think that that was

202
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: something that that photo did right.

203
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 3: That will continue, but he remains in the hospital. But

204
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 3: always good to get. If there's a positive update and

205
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 3: they say he's doing better or not getting worse, we

206
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: will take that as positive news. But stay with us

207
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 3: here on this Monday morning morning run when we come back.

208
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 3: Their uber ride is nine months late, but those astronauts

209
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 3: made finally finally beginning a chance to come home. Also,

210
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 3: the brackets are out, but you still got a few

211
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: days to fill it out. To stay with us on

212
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 3: the run.

213
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone to this Monday morning run, and next

214
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: up on the run to two US astronauts stuck for

215
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: an extra nine months in space are now one step

216
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: closer to finally coming home as early as tomorrow.

217
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 3: The fingers crossed with their replacements, arrived to the International

218
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 3: Space Station yesterday. The four newcomers are from the US, Japan,

219
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 3: and Russia. They're going to spend some time learning the

220
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 3: ropes from Butch Willmore and Sunny Williams before Williams and

221
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: Wilmore will then be able to head back to Earth.

222
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, the two left on a test mission. If you

223
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: might remember last June. They were only supposed to be

224
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: in space for a week, but engineers had concerns about

225
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: the safety of Boeing Starliner spacecraft, which carried them to

226
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: space in the first place. NASA was nervous to fly

227
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 1: them back to Earth on that same craft, so a

228
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: decision was made to leave them up there until the

229
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: next scheduled mission to the space station, which happened to

230
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: be nine months and a few change nine months and

231
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 1: a few days later.

232
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 3: Okay, so now weather permitting, the SpaceX capsule carrying Wilmore,

233
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 3: Williams and two other astronauts will head back to Earth

234
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 3: on Tuesday. It all goes according to plan. Is that

235
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 3: the right termination terminology? I hate saying that they will

236
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 3: splash down. I get it, they're gonna land in the.

237
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,119
Speaker 2: Water's get to splash down.

238
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 3: Just saying anything. I'm in I wanted to gently land,

239
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 3: I wanted to softly do something. But they will splash

240
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 3: down on Florida's coast tomorrow night. That's gonna be quite

241
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 3: a sight. See back on Earth.

242
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 2: We'll all be holding our breath.

243
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure there will be very like a lot of

244
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: planned celebrations for those two from their family members and

245
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: friends who have been waiting patiently for them to come home.

246
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 1: All right, Next up on the run, you have until

00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,800

Speaker 3: I love this time. Of year. Well, we will continue

291
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: on our run today. Look, so much going on. We

292
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 3: talked about the LA Marathon here where we are New

293
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 3: York City, at the half marathon as well. This weekend

294
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 3: and it's Saint Patrick's Day.

295
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 1: There was a lot of drinking going on. There was

296
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 1: a lot of running, there was a lot of pub crawling.

297
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: There's a lot of drinking. You know, that's what you

298
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: do on Saint Patrick's Day.

299
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 3: Yes, that's what you're supposed to do. But that's not

300
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 3: how it all started. Back in the day. It was

301
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 3: meant robes, of course, to celebrate Patrick the patron Saint

302
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 3: of Ireland.

303
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: Oh right, there's like actually a person behind this what

304
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 1: we've now come to know is a drinking holiday. I

305
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: actually want to read the line you wrote because it

306
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: was so funny. They said, happy Saint Patrick's Day, the

307
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: day people celebrate Irish culture by doing pup crawls for

308
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: the metropolitan areas wearing green hats and beads.

309
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: What was inaccurate about that statement?

310
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: That's exactly and we saw plenty of that yesterday in LA.

311
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: But yes, it wasn't always this way. The day was

312
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: meant to celebrate Patrick the Patron Saint of Ireland, who

313
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: was credited with bringing Christianity to the country. Initially it

314
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: was more of a religious celebration in Ireland, but then

315
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: it became more of a party, if you will, when

316
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: Irish settlers brought the celebration to the United States.
