00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:12,479
Speaker 1: Holmes.

6
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 2: We're gonna get going this morning on this Monday morning

7
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 2: with incredible news from the Vatican. Go ahead, call it

8
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: a miracle. Our first sighting of Pope Francis as he's

9
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:24,440
Speaker 2: released from the hospital.

10
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: And is really ours. Airstrikes target the largest hospital in Gaza,

11
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: as the death toll there now reaches a staggering new milestone.

12
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: Plus former Congresswoman Mia Love, the first Black Republican woman

13
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: elected to Congress, passed away on Sunday, but not before

14
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,160
Speaker 1: leaving behind a message for us all.

15
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 2: Also on the run this morning, a United Airlines flight

16
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: on its way to Shanghai had to be diverted midair.

17
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 2: But the reason why is gonna surprise you and it

18
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: might even infuriate you as a fellow traveler.

19
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: Plus Dolly Parton finally makes it to number one. That's right,

20
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: it's the first time the country music legend made the

21
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: top of one Billboard chart in her decades long career.

22
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: Ah So this morning Tiger Woods makes it official. He's

23
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 2: with the Trump family. Well, he's with Trump's former daughter

24
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: in law and mother to five of his grandkids, Vanessa Trump.

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: Not the blockbuster weekend snow White might have been hoping for,

26
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: but some may even call it a sleepy start.

27
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: And March Madness is underway, and we just saw our

28
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: first legit Buzzer beat her. Also one conference set a

29
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: record for the sweet sixteen. We'll get into all that.

30
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: Oh, can't wait to get into all of that. That

31
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 1: was quite the excitement over the weekend. With your razorbacks,

32
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: we begin our run though this morning in Rome, a

33
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: day many thought would never come. Eighty eight year old

34
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: Pope Frances back at his residence in the Vatican after

35
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: finally being discharged from the hospital after a five weeks

36
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: stay battling double pneumonia.

37
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: Now on Sunday, before leaving the hospital, the Pope made

38
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 2: an appearance from the balcony of his room, where he

39
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: waved to hundreds of people who were gathered below. He

40
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: was visibly weak, of course, he had some bandages that

41
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: were visible, but he was able to say a few

42
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: words and even thank to women in the crowd who

43
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 2: had come to visit the hospital each day with yellow roses.

44
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: This was the first time the Pope had been seen

45
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: in real life since he was admitted to the hospital

46
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: on February fourteenth. The Vatican, you may remember, release that

47
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: photo from behind last week, trying to quell rumors that

48
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 1: some had said he had already passed. That photo did

49
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 1: very little to stop the conspiracy theories. But turns out

50
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: the Pope was still alive, in fact to doing much better.

51
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: As we were hearing from the Vatican, the Pope went

52
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: from the hospital to take flowers to the Basilica of

53
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: Saint Mary Major. That's a church the Pope had visited

54
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: frequently before he headed back to his residence.

55
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: Doctor say the Pope will need two months of rest,

56
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: that the Vatican should avoid stressful meetings with large groups.

57
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: They say all should should avoid groups with small children,

58
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: trying to minimize the potential for further infections.

59
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: All right, Next up on the run, we're going to

60
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: turn to the Middle East, where doctors say the Israel

61
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: Hamas war has reached a devastating milestone. Fifty thousand Palestinians

62
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: have been killed since the conflict began nearly a year

63
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: and a half ago.

64
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Israel has kept up its promise new assault on

65
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 2: Hamas since breaking the ceasefire a week ago. Sunday, there

66
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 2: were multiple casualties reported after an Israeli airstrike hit the

67
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 2: largest hospital operating in Gaza. Israel claims a Hamas military

68
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: leader was there using the hospital. He was reportedly there

69
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 2: getting treatment for injury suffered in a previous airstrike.

70
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, former Congresswoman Mia Love has

71
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: passed away at the age of forty nine after a

72
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: fight with brain cancer. Love notably was the first Black

73
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: Republican woman ever elected to Congress.

74
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: She had spoken publicly about undergoing treatment for brain cancer,

75
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 2: and earlier this month wrote in an op ed that

76
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: she was no longer responding to that treatment, saying, quote,

77
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: my battle with brain cancer is coming to an end.

78
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: My family and I have shifted our focus from treatments

79
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: to enjoying every moment and making memories with the time

80
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: we have. Her family says she died peacefully at her

81
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 2: home and sarah Toga Springs, Utah. That's the same town

82
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: where she launched her political career.

83
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. Love was first a member of the city council

84
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: before becoming mayor, and then she won a seat in

85
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: Congress in twenty fourteen, and we want to share with

86
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: you a couple of lines from the op ed that

87
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: she penned earlier this month before her death.

88
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 2: And this struck us because literally this morning getting up

89
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: and reading the words of not just of a woman

90
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 2: who has died, but also she wrote them knowing she

91
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 2: was a dying woman. So some of the words just

92
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 2: kind of jump out at you. There's one thing, she said,

93
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: quote couching this column as a dying wish felt a

94
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 2: little dramatic, even for a drama person like me. I

95
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: write all this as my living wish and hopefully enduring

96
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 2: wish for you. She went on to talk about what

97
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 2: the country had meant for her. Her parents were immigrants.

98
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 2: She said, quote, some have forgotten the math America. Whenever

99
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 2: you divide, you diminish. What I know is that goodness

100
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 2: and compassion of the American people is a multiplier that

101
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 2: simply cannot be measured. Again, Robes, I didn't expect this

102
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: morning for this one the jump out at me. But

103
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 2: it's I'm going to encourage people to go look it

104
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: up and go read it. But she wrote it, I

105
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: believed just two to three weeks ago, and it was

106
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: published online. It's just great and encouraging words from a

107
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 2: woman who knew it was the end for us.

108
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. I get choked out thinking about it. When you

109
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: read her words, it really is inspiring on this Monday

110
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 1: that she was able to write about love and compassion,

111
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 1: all the things that suddenly matter. I mean, they all

112
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: matter to us, but when you know that your life

113
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 1: is coming to an end, and not a lot of

114
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: people have that knowledge, but when you do, you live differently.

115
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: And her words of wisdom are so meaningful and so powerful,

116
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: because yes, all the noise, all the things we fight

117
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 1: about and worry about and talk about and waste our

118
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 1: time about, really all don't matter in the end. When

119
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: you're dying, you know that. So yes, what she wrote

120
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: is powerful, and we encourage everyone to read it. It

121
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: says the title of the op ed is mea love,

122
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: my living wish for the America I know all right.

123
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: Next up on the Run, a United Airlines plane flying

124
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: from Los Angeles to Shanghai had to make a mid

125
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: air diversion over the weekend. Not because of a mechanical issue,

126
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: not because of a weather issue, not even because of

127
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: an unruly passenger.

128
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: It was because of an absent minded pilot. The pilot

129
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: mid flight two hours into this thing, it says, he

130
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 2: suddenly realized he had forgotten his passport, which apparently is

131
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 2: important if you're flying to Shanghai. United flight one ninety eight.

132
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,559
Speaker 2: It had been up in the air a couple hours.

133
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 2: Pilot had to make a U turn fly to San

134
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 2: Francisco to land the plane. The airline had to find

135
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 2: a new pilot. The passengers got this message, your flight

136
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: diverted to San Francisco due to an unexpected crew related issue,

137
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 2: requiring a new crew. Once they arrived, we'll get once

138
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 2: they arrived, we'll get you back on your way to

139
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 2: Shanghai as soon as possible. We sincerely apologize for this

140
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,799
Speaker 2: disruption and appreciate your patience.

141
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 1: So what did the passengers get for this pretty major diversion, Well,

142
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: they were given a fifteen dollars meal voucher. Some of

143
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: the passengers definitely took social media very upset about this.

144
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: When they found out that it in fact was due

145
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: to not just a crew issue, but because the pilot

146
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: forgot his passport. They are demanding some bigger compensation. We'll

147
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: fight out if that actually takes place, but eventually we

148
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: should point out United found another crew, passengers did make

149
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: it to Shanghai, and despite this major snafu, it's kind

150
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: of remarkable they landed just six hours behind schedule. That

151
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: is a big deal. So I'm not trying to minimize

152
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: the fact that a six hour delay causes a lot

153
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: of disruptions for a lot of folks, but given what

154
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: they were dealing with. In fact, after making the U turn,

155
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: I believe the flight was in the air for almost

156
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: three full hours before it landed and then had to

157
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: start over again in San Francisco. But a little frustrating

158
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: knowing that this is the second time in one week

159
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: this happened to you, United pilot. Apparently this was the

160
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: exact same situation a few days earlier. The good news

161
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: is the pilot realized it before he got on the plane,

162
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: so they were able to make the delay much less.

163
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 2: Don't give them anything. It's offensive to give them the

164
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,679
Speaker 2: fifteen dollars. Just don't give him anything. That's a middle

165
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: finger to the passengers. Correct, just don't give anything, and

166
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 2: that's you can be upset about that, but don't offend

167
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: them by giving them a fifteen dollars voucher. Come on,

168
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 2: that's Cava learned. You gotta do better. You know, this

169
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 2: is going to get out, and so that's off. That's

170
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: it is. That's okay. And the pilot, for God's sake,

171
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 2: that's the last thing you wanted an absent minded pilot gigs.

172
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, if he forgot his his passport, what else did

173
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: he forget? I mean, that's a little concerning. Also, there

174
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: has been a lot of talk about why they don't

175
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 1: have the same exact protocol for the crew that they

176
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: do for passengers. You should have to scan your passport

177
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: before you go onto the plane. That would eliminate No,

178
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: apparently that's not I mean that's not the case, because

179
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: it's happened twice in one week now.

180
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 2: Everybody's bordered a plane. The cockpit doors open. Now we

181
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 2: all got to dip our head, and everybody got the

182
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 2: passport before we take off. We'll continue here on our

183
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 2: run this morning with Dolly Parton, and it's a sentimental

184
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 2: first for the legend on her of course, long storied

185
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 2: and record setting career. She's actually never made it to

186
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: number one on a particular country chart until now.

187
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: That's right, Dolly's song if you hadn't been there has

188
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: hit number one on Billboard's Country Digital Chart that is

189
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: a measure of the best selling country songs each week

190
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: based purely on online purchases. Dolly, of course, has had

191
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: plenty of hits over the years. She's even had songs

192
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: on this particular chart before, but never number one.

193
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 2: But here's a little bit of the twist here. Why

194
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 2: this is happening this particular chart, it's only been around

195
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: the past twenty years or so. That is after her

196
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 2: most legendary hits had already had their run. They've run

197
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 2: their course, so Jelen, all those we had already had

198
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 2: their time. So this song, now, if you hadn't been

199
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 2: there is a dedication to her husband, Carl Thomas Dean,

200
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: who died at the age of eighty two earlier this month.

201
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 2: They had been married some fifty years. And it's I mean,

202
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: it's sweet, bittersweet, but to see her at number one

203
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 2: is just cool. And to think it was her husband

204
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 2: in that song that.

205
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: Oh no cool, It gives me Chillsen. I haven't heard

206
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: it yet, And as soon as we're done with this podcast,

207
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: I am going to listen to that song. I can't wait.

208
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: All right, we'll stay with us folks here on this

209
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 2: Monday morning run. When we come back, Tiger's got a girlfriend. Also,

210
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 2: snow White has got a problem, and we have got

211
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 2: a buzzer beer.

212
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back to your Monday morning run and next up

213
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 1: on the run. You know, we don't do a lot

214
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 1: of celebrity dating news here, but you know what, this

215
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 1: one was a doozy. The most famous golfer in the

216
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: world is officially dating the former daughter in law of

217
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: the current president of the United States.

218
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 2: Give you a second to put all that together. But

219
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 2: if you didn't catch it, what we're saying is Tiger

220
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 2: was is dating Butanessa Trump. Yes, it was Tiger, famously

221
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 2: private Tiger who actually made this official on social media.

222
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 2: He posted two photos of them, one of them standing

223
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 2: and posing just next to each other, and then the

224
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,719
Speaker 2: other they're actually laying in a hammock together smiling. I

225
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 2: think she's kind of more so laying on top of him,

226
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: but the very chill, relaxed Tiger woods.

227
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that was great. I couldn't wait to

228
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 1: look at the pictures when I saw all of that.

229
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 1: Tiger wrote this in the caption love is in the Air. Wow.

230
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 1: Quite the romantic and life is better with you by

231
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: my side. We look forward to our journey through life together. Wow,

232
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: that sounds like it's a permanent thing. I love that

233
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: he added at this time, we'd like privacy for all

234
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 1: those close to our hearts. Good luck with that Tiger, Well.

235
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's making a nod. So yes, we're here,

236
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 2: we're out here, but please don't mess with our kids.

237
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 2: And it's a lot of kids in this group. Vanessa

238
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 2: was previously married to Donald Trump Junior and they have

239
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 2: five kids together now, Vanessa's kids and Tiger's kids. Some

240
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 2: of them go through the same school together. Vanessa and

241
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: Tiger have been seen in recent weeks, so not necessarily

242
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 2: that this came out of nowhere, but it's cool to

243
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 2: see him happy. He's famously a private guy, but he

244
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 2: put this out there, and he looks happy. We've seen

245
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 2: him in some of his golf tournament, the virtual tournament

246
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 2: that's been on ESPN having a blast.

247
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 1: Dude looks happy, Yeah, he does, and in the hammock

248
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: he has the sweetest little smile on his face. I

249
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: was thinking about this because we've seen a lot of

250
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,839
Speaker 1: Trump's granddaughter Kai. You know, she's just this gorgeous girl.

251
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: She is a big golfer, and I just wonder if

252
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: that is a nice little tie between them. She's doing

253
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: well on the greens as well, so it's probably pretty

254
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: cool to have her mom dating Tiger. Probably doesn't hurt,

255
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: all right. Next up on our run, much maligned, much

256
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 1: talked about, much anticipated Snow White finally arrived in theaters

257
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 1: this weekend. How to do with the box office after

258
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: all those controversies. Well, it didn't totally bomb.

259
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 2: It's probably not what they wanted to wake up to

260
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: this morning. That line, it didn't totally bomb. The Disney

261
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 2: live action reimagining of the beloved classic made and estimated

262
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 2: forty three million dollars at the US box office, making

263
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 2: it the number one movie of the weekend. That number

264
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: was also good enough to make it the second biggest

265
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: movie opening of the year. All that sounds great, It's problem.

266
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: Movie costs are reported two hundred and fifty plus million

267
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: to make, and that's before promotional costs, which on a

268
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 2: movie like this can reach up into the eight plus figures.

269
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 1: Wow, all right, Well, okay, so forty three million dollars

270
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: is not a great start. You could also argue that

271
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: it's quite concerning the movies Rotten Tomatoes score, and you know,

272
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: so many people check this, at least, you know, I

273
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: always do. Is it forty four percent? That is no good?

274
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 1: But we did notice the audience score is seventy four percent,

275
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,599
Speaker 1: So you'll see the two side by side. And I

276
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: always kind of gauge that too, because if the people

277
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: who went to go see it liked it, I almost

278
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: take that as a bigger barometer of what my movie

279
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: experience will be like versus the critics, because sometimes they're

280
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: looking for artistic things or just I don't know parts

281
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: of the movie that I'm not necessarily that concerned with.

282
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: So you know, that's a good thing. That's maybe some

283
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: silver lining there. The movie, though very much, seemed like

284
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: it was cursed from the beginning.

285
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and from the very beginning. You'll remember, there was

286
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: a backlash when it was announced that a non white

287
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 2: actress would be taking the lead role. There were several

288
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 2: delays and reshoots because of COVID. All that added up,

289
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 2: and then there were the controversies scal Goadotes' comments about

290
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 2: the war between Israel and Hamas, star Rachel Zegler's comments

291
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 2: about Trump and his supporters, and her comments about Disney's

292
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 2: original snow White. Also, Disney chose to go with cgi

293
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 2: of the Seven Doors. They decided to see gi them

294
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 2: instead of using actual real actors. So all that adds

295
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: up to just it hasn't been anything positive for a

296
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 2: long time for this movie. It just seemed doomed yea

297
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: from the very beginning. And it's just such a beloved

298
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 2: I know snow White has its issues, the original from

299
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 2: nineteen thirty seven, a lot of issues back then, fine,

300
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: but it's still just this classic that I guess we

301
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 2: all grew up with. We should have a sweet place

302
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 2: in our heart when we think about it instead of

303
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: this has tainted the whole damn snow White legacy for me.

304
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: Now, it's remarkable that they managed to piss off so

305
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: many different people who would have otherwise probably gone to

306
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: see this movie happily, and to well potentially piss off

307
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: half the country with the Trump comments. And then you've

308
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: got so many divisions between Israel and Palestine. I mean

309
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: it just, yeah, that's tough.

310
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 2: Well know, later, we actually do have tickets and have

311
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: plans to go see the movie today and going to

312
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 2: give an actual review, not just talk about controvert, but

313
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 2: actually talk about the movie, So hopefully we'll make it.

314
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: Excited about this because we've been watching in the background

315
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: and at nauseum the original Snow Idea. It's been playing

316
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: in our home all weekend long, so this will be

317
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm really looking forward to the movie and really looking

318
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: forward to doing the podcast. Now, speaking of looking forward

319
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: to something, TJ had quite the weekend. For the final

320
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: leg of the run, we're gonna talk March Madness. We'll

321
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: begin with the latest. We got our first legit buzzer

322
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: beater of the NCAA Tournament last night and it was

323
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: a freshman that delivered.

324
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 2: This was a cool scene with twelve seed Colorado State

325
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 2: up against four seed Maryland. Colorado State hits a three

326
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: pointer with three point seven seconds to go, put them

327
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 2: up by one point. You think that's the game winner

328
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 2: because it's only seconds left. A big upset was brewing

329
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: with the twelve seed Colorado State over four seed Maryland. However,

330
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 2: Maryland calls time out. The coach later told the media

331
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 2: that in that time out, in the huddle, he asked

332
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 2: his players who wants to take the last shot, and

333
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: freshman Derek Queen responded immediately, quote, give me the mother

334
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 2: effen ball.

335
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: Gotta love that confidence. Maryland inbounded to the six to

336
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: ten center who took the ball on the left side

337
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 1: of the basket and shot a running fadeaway that banked

338
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: off the backboard and went in as the buzzer sounded.

339
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: I wrote all of that. This game winner put Maryland

340
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: into the Sweet sixteen. Seven out of the sixteen teams

341
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: are from the same conference, the SEC.

342
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that is a record for one conference. They

343
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 2: got seven teams left out of the sixteen. That's a

344
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 2: big deal, but it's actually not maybe that big of

345
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 2: a surprise. The SEC had a dominant year and got

346
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 2: fourteen teams into the tournament. That was also a record.

347
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 2: So moving forward, you have all four number one seeds

348
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 2: have made it to the next round. All four number

349
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 2: two seeds made it except one that two seed with

350
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 2: Saint John's that went down losing to the up and

351
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 2: coming lowly Arkansas Razorbacks. And there has been of a

352
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 2: coach that John Calipari. If you don't know, I am

353
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 2: being absolutely sarcastic. These are This was the highlight of

354
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: my weekend to see coach cal and my Alma mon

355
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 2: Or do its thing. So it was really really fun.

356
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: It was the highlight of my weekend watching you just celebrate.

357
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 1: You know, this has been fun because especially when you

358
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: have been obviously a tried and true hog span through

359
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: thick and thin, so when you've gone and supported them

360
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: through all the defeats, when you get that victory and

361
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: an upset like it was, it's just that much sweeter.

362
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: So that was so fun to watch your hogs get

363
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: into the sweet sixteen. And I also was kidding when

364
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: I said I wrote that. Obviously that would never have

365
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 1: come from my brain onto paper.

366
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 2: Nobody listening thought for a second you were serious. We'll

367
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 2: update you though, I'll allow you fill out your brackets.

368
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 2: ESPN Tournament Challenge. We gave an update I think last

369
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 2: week a couple of times about how many perfect brackets

370
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 2: were left. So twenty four million, three hundred eighty eight thousand,

371
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 2: five hundred and forty four brackets were submitted at one

372
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 2: point last week after the first day, I think it

373
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 2: was down only twenty thousand or so.

374
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: That was still perfect less than one percent.

375
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 2: Yes, so how many still perfect after the first weekend?

376
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 2: Out of that twenty four million, zero there's not a

377
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 2: single perfect bracket left this always happened. I swear usually

378
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 2: one or two. There's usually a weekend a couple.

379
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: But was it after Arkansas's win that they were all

380
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: zeroed out?

381
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 2: There was Clemson that did. Louisville was a big pick

382
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 2: and Clemson lost the five seeds loss right, they crushed

383
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 2: a lot of people. But yes, there is not a

384
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 2: single perfect bracket. Let's just let you know you cannot

385
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 2: predict this thing. It's the only thing that delivers every

386
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 2: single year.

387
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 1: And it's worth all those sleepless nights, ain't it, TJ.

388
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 2: Damn right? It is so, folks. Before we let you

389
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,919
Speaker 2: go about your day on this Monday, something we'd like

390
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 2: for you to consider. It is our quote of the day.

391
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: TJ. One of our discussions over the weekend inspired me

392
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 1: to find this quote from a book I love. Here

393
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: we go, b impecc with your word. Speak with integrity,

394
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to

395
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the

396
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

397
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: That is from Don Miguel Ruiz Ruiz, author of The

398
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: Four Agreements. It's a book I read a long long

399
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: time ago, and when I saw this quote. It reminded

400
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 1: me that I would like to re listen to this

401
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: book on an audiobook. But it's a great quote.

402
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 2: Folks. We will do another episode of our regular Amyen

403
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 2: DJ podcast to explain why that quote jumped out at

404
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 2: her and she was looking for based on a discussion

405
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 2: we were having this weekend. No, it wasn't an argument, right, No, it.

406
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: Could a common argument, but we've gotten to a place

407
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: in our relationship where we can just accept each other's

408
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: comments and not be personally offended by them. All right,

409
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: So one more time for everybody, because this is actually

410
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: it's a great way to start your week and a

Speaker 1: with your word. Speak with integrity, say only what you mean,

414
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 1: Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to

415
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: gossip about others. Use the power of your word in

416
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: the direction of truth and love. And with that, thank
