It was a 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 2: tear field afternoon, yes, watching the Olympics. 12 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: Girl power all around, and you know what, Yes, Alyssa 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: Lou was remarkable to watch. We actually recorded an entire 14 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: episode about our excitement and enthusiasm and lessons that we 15 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: learned watching this young woman's skate. And then yes, the 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: women's hockey team killing it like they've been doing it 17 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: for We're actually getting kind of expectations now when it 18 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: comes to these women, because they have been delivering Winter 19 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: Olympic after Winter Olympic. 20 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 2: But we have an expectation of Canada VERSUS USA when 21 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,639 Speaker 2: they play women's hockey and they delivered. What a match. 22 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 2: If you were this was incredible. They were out of 23 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 2: it for the most part, two minutes left, a score goal, 24 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 2: tied up, get into overtime and win the sucker and 25 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: sudden down. It is the best you can get with 26 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: the stakes that were there. That was maybe one of 27 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: the I can't remember a better hockey game I've ever 28 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: seen in my life. That was great. 29 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: The only other one that I've seen that was better 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: was the United States versus Canada in pyeong Chang when 31 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: they won in double overtime. That was But yes, they 32 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 1: deliver every time. They are exciting and fun to watch. 33 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: And I also just want to give a nod to 34 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: Amber Glenn because that young lady, after what she went 35 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: through with her earlier skate, falling twice knocking herself out 36 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: of gold contention or metal contention, gave one of the 37 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: best skates of her life. I was bawling watching her 38 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: come back and do her own personal best and actually 39 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: make it to number five, which was higher than anyone 40 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: thought she could do. 41 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 2: And so we sit now the United States, I should say, 42 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: at number two. The official medal count. Norway remains at 43 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: the top with sixteen gold medals, thirty four overall. The US, 44 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 2: now in second place, has jumped over Italy now for 45 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: second with nine gold medals and twenty seven overall. Italy 46 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 2: has nine gold medals but twenty six overall, and then 47 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: France and Netherlands moved up into the top five. That continues, 48 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 2: and of course a big night tonight robes US Slovakia 49 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: men's hockey. This is a semi final. I hope they 50 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 2: get some inspiration. 51 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, like be like the ladies, Be like the ladies. Yes, 52 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: but it's always fun to watch love these matchups, and 53 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: we will be watching today. 54 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: Worth noting as well, the US women are in the 55 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 2: semis of curling. They're playing the Swiss. But curling has 56 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: for whatever reason, become a profanity laden hot sport during 57 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 2: this Olympic. It is interesting to keep an eye on 58 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 2: them today as well. But we will continue on this morning. 59 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: Ron We're going to be making stops in the UK 60 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: and Hollywood and DC in Vegas and at Area fifty one, 61 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 2: but we'll begin with the royal formerly known as Prince Andrew. 62 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 2: He's now been released from police custody. Happened last night 63 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: after his arrest yesterday, and I guess you robes have 64 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: seen it, but it will be everywhere today. The image 65 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: of him leaving in the backseat of that car ducking 66 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 2: is that's a bad look. 67 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was trying to duck, but it just made 68 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: him look even guiltier, do you know what I mean? 69 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: Like the look on his face and the way he 70 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: was trying to avoid the cameras. Not a good look. 71 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: Not a good look. But yees see, as people know, 72 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 2: was arrested yesterday, not arrested necessarily for some of the 73 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: things we've seen him so much accused for in terms 74 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 2: of his relationship and the accusations of being involved with 75 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: underage girls. Rather, he was arrested on suspicion of misconduct 76 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: in public office, essentially sharing possible state secret with Epstein 77 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: when he was acting as an agent of the British government. 78 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: And you say he was arrested on suspicion of misconducts 79 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: so there are no official charges yet. We are waiting 80 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: for that, and that is why he was released. But 81 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: he was released, and they made a point to say, 82 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: but remains under investigation. His homes have been searched. We 83 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: saw that happening all day yesterday. I believe he returned 84 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: back to Sandringham, which is actually the King's property because 85 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: he was kicked out of the royal residences earlier, just 86 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: after he was stripped of his royal titles. So there 87 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: is much more to come on that part of the story. 88 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: But next up on the run, the estate of Jeffrey 89 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: Epstein has agreed to pay as much as thirty five 90 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,799 Speaker 1: million dollars to settle another class action lawsuit. This lawsuit 91 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: accused actually two of Epstein's advisors, his former personal lawyer 92 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: and his accountant, of aiding and a betting Epstein's sex 93 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: trafficking of young women. 94 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: Neither adviser made a mission or concession of mi conduct 95 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 2: as part of the deal, which still must be approved 96 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: by a judge to be finalized. The Epstein estate has 97 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 2: already paid out more than one hundred and fifty million 98 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: dollars to victims. Continuing on the run, here now the 99 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 2: news we got late yesterday. Actor Eric Dane has passed 100 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: away at the age of fifty three. The actor known 101 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: as Mixed Steamy, and he passed away just a year 102 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: rope after revealing he had been diagnosed with als. 103 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: That's right. He played doctor Mark Sloane on Gray's Academy 104 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: and Yes aka Mixed Steamy Anatomy. 105 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: Yes, Anatomy Academy. 106 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: Did I say Gray's Academy? Wow, it's Friday, everyone, please, 107 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: I am so sorry. 108 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: There's a different show on Disney. 109 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: Gray's Anatomy And Yes. He began as just a guest 110 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: appearance on February nineteenth, two thousand and six, and ended 111 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: up being such a hit that he went on to 112 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: play Doctor Sloan, that sassy, steamy, kind of jerky at 113 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: times plastic surgeon there at Gray's Anatomy. 114 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: But he. 115 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: Was finally left around season eight. I believe Soon's five 116 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: solid seasons there. He became an ALS advocate in this 117 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: past year of his life. And you know what's so cool. 118 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: We never watched Euphoria, but certainly it's a huge show 119 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: with some of the younger generations. And he played Jacob 120 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: Alordi's bisexual father, I guess in that show. But he 121 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: has continued his acting through his ALS diagnosis, and he'll 122 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: be on the upcoming season, so we'll be more to 123 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: see of Eric Dame. But again, he passed away at 124 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: the age of fifty three yesterday. 125 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 2: All right, we continue on this Friday now on this run, 126 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 2: we do want to give you the latest on the 127 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: Guthrie investigation, and quite frankly, folks, that's not a whole 128 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 2: lot of new things to report from law enforcement. We 129 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 2: are now, folks, this is Friday. Tomorrow will be three 130 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: weeks since anyone has the last known to have seen 131 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 2: Nancy Guthrie, the eighty four year old mother of today's 132 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 2: show host Savannah Guthrie. Police still saying no suspects, no 133 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 2: persons of interest. Their work continues. They did get DNA 134 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: that they analyzed, but it did not match any criminal 135 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: in the database. So they got DNA that they don't 136 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 2: know who it belongs to. And now they're going through 137 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: with genealogy consumer genealogy sites and companies to try to 138 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: possibly track down who this DNA belongs to. 139 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: All right, Meanwhile, President Trump was asked specifically about the 140 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: Guthrie case while he was a bard Air Force one 141 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: and the question was, what do you think happened to 142 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: Savannah Guthrie's mom. Trump's response was, it's so crazy, it's 143 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: so bad, and then he said, we have to start 144 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: reporting on other subjects and see what happens. It's a 145 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: very sad situation. But he did take a moment to 146 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: criticize the reporting on police tactics, specifically that police were 147 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: using what they called a signals sniffer to try and 148 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: see if they could find any sort of signal from 149 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie's pacemaker. He criticized that, saying, why are police 150 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: revealing their tactics now? The person who has her could 151 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: just move her or do something bad to her to 152 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: make the pacemaker her stop emitting a signal. So he 153 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: was critical of that. 154 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: When he said it, I was like, wow, that's kind 155 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 2: of a good point. 156 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about it either. I know, I was like, yikes. 157 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: Ye, I don't know if if police actually they did 158 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 2: reveal that. They did reveal that, But again, he took 159 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: that opportunity. But it'll be a lot of headlines out there, 160 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: and you should look at it for yourself and in context. 161 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 2: I didn't be honest with the ropes thinking's that it 162 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: was that awful what he was saying. But a lot 163 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: of the headlines are saying Trump says we should move 164 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 2: on from Nancy Guthrie. I get why, but a little 165 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 2: more context and you should listen to it for yourself 166 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 2: and not just take those headlines, not in defensive correct, 167 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 2: but just in defense of the contact curate headlines. Yes, 168 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: all right, continue here on the next leg of our run. 169 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: Continue with President Trump. He is ordering his administration to 170 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: release government files related to ET. Now, this seemed to 171 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 2: have come out of nowhere, rogue, but the president does 172 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 2: want files, government files released about UFOs and alien abductions 173 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 2: and whatever. You put this out on truth social and 174 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 2: it seemingly came from nowhere, but it came from somewhere. 175 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: Well, he knows what the people want. I want to 176 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: know about extraterrestrials, do you. I want to know what 177 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 1: the government knows or information it may have on aliens. 178 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: See, here's a problem. We don't have a we don't 179 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 2: have a story in here about the economy in our 180 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: morning run. We'll take that hit. This is the point 181 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 2: we want to know. Yeah, give them what they want. 182 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: Give the people what they want, and they might not 183 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 2: pay attention to this other thing over here because they're 184 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: not getting what they neat. So people call the where 185 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 2: does this alien abductions in alien UFOs? You're curious? Sure, 186 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: high priority, eh. 187 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: But I'll listen to that. You start talking about the economy, 188 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: and I hear Charlie Brown's teacher, won't want, won't won't 189 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 1: wan't want. That's just the truth. 190 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: Give it the people. 191 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,079 Speaker 1: That's just the truth. Here was his truth social post. 192 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing 193 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: the Secretary of War and other relevant departments and agencies 194 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: to begin the process of identifying and releasing government files 195 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 1: related to alien and extra terrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena, 196 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: and unidentified flying objects UFOs, and any and all other 197 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and 198 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: important matters. God bless America. 199 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 2: So this is coming from you might have seen and 200 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: we kind of all smiled about it. But President Obama 201 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 2: was on a podcast recently and he was asked in 202 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: some rapid fire round about extraterrestrials, and he said that 203 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: they are real, but I have not seen them. It 204 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: was kind of a tongue in cheek. It was a 205 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: quick little thing they were doing that got headlines and 206 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: we smiled. President Trump said that President Obama is now 207 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,599 Speaker 2: giving out state secrets, that he has actually violated his 208 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 2: oath or his responsibility to hold on to top secret information. Huh. 209 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: So he's confirming that Obama saying that aliens are real. 210 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: He can say that because he knows, because he had 211 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: access to information only presidents have access to. 212 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 2: Trump has a way of taking story. This is now 213 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: enormous to me. 214 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: Now I'm even more interested, he. 215 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: Said, quote, I don't know if they're real or not. 216 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 2: This is Trump. I can tell you he Obama gave 217 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: classified information. He's not supposed to be doing that. He 218 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 2: made a big mistake. He took it out of classified information, 219 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 2: confirming aliens exists. This is what we got. 220 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: We buried the lead on I was going to say, 221 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: why didn't we start with the story. 222 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: We buried the lead. 223 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: That's on me, all right? Next up on the run. 224 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,479 Speaker 1: As if Trump's name and face and influence weren't ubiquitous 225 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: enough already, he is now gone and literally unfurled. You 226 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: have to look at this for yourself. A huge banner 227 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: with his face on it at the Department of Justice. 228 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: It says, make America safe again. 229 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 2: We shouldn't be surprised, necessariah. The president is big into branding, 230 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 2: putting his names on things and places and buildings and 231 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 2: maybe even airport and planes and whatever else. But this 232 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 2: has for a lot of people been disturbing. He's been 233 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 2: doing this for months now, but these big banners have 234 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 2: been put on a number of government buildings in DC. 235 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: This gets attention, of course, rolled just the Department of Justice, 236 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 2: and of course he appoints people there. But there was 237 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 2: always seen some kind of a separate reparation, some semblance 238 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 2: of independence and working independent from the White House. But 239 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: this is just for a lot of people, a bad look. 240 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 2: But we shouldn't be surprised. They want to put his 241 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: face on a bill, right currency, they want to put 242 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 2: on Mount Rushmore has been talked about. They're talking about 243 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 2: renaming an airport down in Florida after him, this stuff, 244 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: So we shouldn't be surpris Oh yeah, and the Trump can. 245 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: But it does like when you see this banner, it 246 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: looks like something you would see Kim Jong UN's face on, 247 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: or an Ayatola somewhere. I mean, that is what it 248 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: looks like. And to have it on the Justice Department. 249 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: Remember the separation of powers executive brands, judicial branch, and wait, legislate. 250 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: I was like, it's not congressional. I was trying to 251 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: think of what it was called the legislative branch. 252 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 2: Yes, we're going to be schoolhouse rocking it this weekend. 253 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: Prayer God, I'm just a bill, all right. Next up 254 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: on the run, Trump's ballroom design plan has been approved. 255 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: The Commission of Fine Arts voted to approve it without 256 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: further consideration of the thousands of negative public comments that 257 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: have apparently flooded the commission. Instead, the panel, which is 258 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: made up of all new members appointed by President Trump himself, 259 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: fast tracked that final vote, which was wasn't set to 260 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: happen until their next meeting on March nineteenth. The panel 261 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: secretary only presented the panel two public comments, one four 262 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: and one against. The secretary later said we literally have 263 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: gotten just in the past week or so, more than 264 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 1: two thousand various messages. Way too much to go through individually, 265 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: he said, though the messages were overwhelmingly in opposition over 266 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: ninety nine percent to this project. We then had the 267 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 1: President the Commission on Social Media saying great accolades were 268 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: paid to the building's beauty and scale. It's gonna be 269 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: ninety thousand square feet, costs four hundred million bucks, but 270 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna be paid for by private donors. 271 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 2: It's the same height almost as the White House. Is 272 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 2: that what I'm saying that it looks not that it 273 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 2: towers above it or anything, but it's a much larger, 274 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 2: correct thing sitting on the ground. 275 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: Than what the east wing was once. 276 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 2: Yes, it's gonna be gorgeous. Maybe we'll get invited one day. 277 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: All right, continuing here on this Friday morning run, stay 278 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 2: here when we come back quick. Who is the world's 279 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: largest retailer? You're wrong? Walmart was only the right answer 280 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 2: for the past thirteen years. There is a new company 281 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: on top. We'll explain. Also, you want yourself a new dog, 282 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 2: there is one at Vegas. You're gonna have to fight 283 00:14:51,360 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: everybody to get a stare. All right, folks, let's continue 284 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: on this Friday morning run now. And it's just been understood, 285 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: is it not Robes The largest retailer in the world Walmart? 286 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: Yes, duh. 287 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 2: Everybody knows that. 288 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: Everyone knows that Walmart is, Yes, the juggernaut of all 289 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: retail stores. They are the powerhouse. They that's America Walmart. Right, 290 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't get more American than that. 291 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: Oh, but Walmart has been bumped down to number two 292 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 2: on the list of largest retailers in the world. And 293 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 2: they've been bumped down by a company Robes that does 294 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 2: not have brick and mortar stores in your neighborhood. Amazon, 295 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: isn't that remarkable? We shouldn't be surprised the. 296 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: Power of the internet now, it is true. I think 297 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: about how often now where I normally would go out 298 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: to get something, go pick something up, it's just so easy. 299 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: Just flip up the computer and Waila, tomorrow it's at 300 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: your doorstep. 301 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, they've been making yes, in that retail space, but 302 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: a lot of technology in AI space. But they took 303 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 2: so how much are they ahead of Walmart now? Well, 304 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventeen billion dollars in sales for Amazon, 305 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: seven hundred and thirteen billion in sales for Walmart. What's 306 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: a few billion here or there. Well, it's a big deal. 307 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: They're number one now, yes, and. 308 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: Going in that direction. So we'll see what the future holds. 309 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: But Amazon, certainly, and they say Walmart is getting into 310 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: AI as well with their shoppers. Everyone's trying to now 311 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: get more savvy online to make it easier for folks 312 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: to shop and to receive their products. 313 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 2: All right. 314 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: For the final leg of the run, a two year 315 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: old golden doodle is in need of a new home 316 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: after its owner abandoned it at the Vegas airport. Now 317 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: this is insane because also if you see the picture 318 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: of this dog, they're so cute and so well taken 319 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: care of and groomed. It looked like this dog was loved. 320 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: But now the owner of that dog has been charged 321 00:16:54,920 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: with abandonment and resisting arrest. This all happened on February second, 322 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: and the police just released the video and it has 323 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: caused quite the star Well. 324 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 2: It's well roads. The woman goes to the airport, according 325 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 2: to police, wants to board her flight, but she hasn't 326 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: done all the paperwork necessary to have a service animal 327 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 2: travel with. 328 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: Her, meaning she wants to bring him on the plane 329 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: for free. 330 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 2: Yes, there it is. So she didn't do the paperwork. 331 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 2: They said, no, we can't give you a boarding pass 332 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,959 Speaker 2: for the dog, So you can't take the dog. So 333 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:28,959 Speaker 2: what would most people, I guess, do you have to 334 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 2: find somewhere for your dog to go, or you have 335 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 2: to do the paperwork, or you have to take a 336 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 2: layer flight. She didn't want any of those options. She 337 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 2: went and boarded her flight left the damn dog just 338 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 2: left it behind. 339 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: It's horrific. 340 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 2: She abandoned the dog. Now, according to police, or This 341 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 2: is confusing to me as well. Her mindset. Ah dog 342 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 2: has a chip, somebody'd probably returned it to me eventually. 343 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,719 Speaker 1: That was just her excuse. She just she wanted what 344 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: she wanted. She wanted to get on that flight. She 345 00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: wanted to bring her dog with her. She probably didn't 346 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: have any want to take care of him. But look, 347 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: in order to get the service animal status, yes, you 348 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: have to go through a physician, have an actual like 349 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: she didn't have what she needed to prove that he 350 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: was a service dog and to prove the only reason 351 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: why she wanted to prove that is because she didn't 352 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: want to pay for him. You can pay I don't 353 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: know what it is, one hundred and fifty bucks. You 354 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: can have the dog that size go with you. Underneath 355 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: the abandonment, Why are you just gonna leave the dog? 356 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: I mean I need to I do this all the time. 357 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 2: Right. Let me save some space here for she had 358 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 2: something so urgent she had to get to that she 359 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 2: couldn't miss that fly. 360 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: Can I also put a little poke a hole in 361 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,360 Speaker 1: your theory. So when she's arrested, and of course they 362 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: take the dog and they have social the whoever the 363 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: local SBCA is they take the dog, and they gave 364 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: her up to ten days to come back and get 365 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: her dog. She didn't. She left the dog at the pound. 366 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 2: Because she was probably at whatever emergency she had to 367 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 2: fly to. 368 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure that's what it was. She didn't fly anywhere. 369 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: She was arrested, and she resisted arrest, and she actually 370 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: just got a one way ticket to jail. 371 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 2: She's not gonna get locked up for them. I'm saying, 372 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 2: what do you think about a child? Do you think 373 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: this is a family member? What if your child was 374 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 2: three and you thought you could fly free on your 375 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 2: lap and they say, nope, kid can't go. You will 376 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: leave the baby at the count? Of course not okay, 377 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 2: This is the same mindset with a dog. 378 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: To me correct and anyone who is a dog owner 379 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: who loves their pet, they are members of the family. 380 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: So to do this is unthinkable, which is why this 381 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: story is making the rounds, because people cannot imagine being 382 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: someone who is a loving dog owner and acting the 383 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: way this woman acted, just leaving the dog. The good 384 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: news is the dog has a lot of attention right now, 385 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: and there are a lot of folks who are lining 386 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: up now to adopt this dog. 387 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 2: And it will get adopted. And they are also making 388 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 2: a point there at the animal shelter filter out there 389 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 2: that this isn't the only dog available, right, it's a 390 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 2: lot of interest in that one. But they're using this. 391 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 2: And the dog's name now has been changed to the 392 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 2: airline that it was flying on. Jet Blue is the 393 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 2: dog's name. You have the option to change it if 394 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 2: you adopted, maybe to Delta. But it's gonna get adopted. 395 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 2: But a cute dog, check out the picture, but interesting story. 396 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 2: I've never heard of anything quite like. 397 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: This, neither have I. But thank god Jet Blue is 398 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: going to have a happy and loving home very very soon. 399 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: All Right, we're going to leave you on this Friday 400 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 1: with our quote of the day, keeping it Olympic themed 401 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: and seeing how you know what, so many of those 402 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,719 Speaker 1: athletes were looking for gold and going for gold, and 403 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: it didn't work out for everyone. So that's why I 404 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: loved this quote from Bonnie Blair, an American speed skater 405 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: and a five time gold medalist. Here is what Bonnie 406 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: Blair had to say that I think we all can 407 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: take with us on this Friday. Winning doesn't always mean 408 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've ever 409 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: done before. We talked about this when we saw some 410 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: of these scores where you would have seasons best or 411 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: personal best, and you'd see the joy on that athlete's face. 412 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: It didn't matter if he or she meddled. That is 413 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: what it's all about, coming to the stage and doing 414 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: your best. That's winning. 415 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 2: Man gold medals. Nice though, I'm with you one hundred percent. 416 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to win to poopool on that quote. Ah, 417 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 2: but that's that's a good quote from somebody's got how 418 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 2: many gold medals? 419 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 1: You know what I hear? Your point? Five time gold 420 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: medal is easy to say when you've been on top 421 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: five times. But I'm sure she had plenty of experiences 422 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: where she did not win. 423 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 2: She had five where she did. 424 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: Yes, and with that perspective, she can say that that 425 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: gold medal wasn't the time she maybe even won the most. 426 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 2: Okay, she has never been introduced in her life without 427 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 2: it first saying five time gold medalists? Has she? 428 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: But there was a period of her life before where 429 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: she wouldn't have been able to say. 430 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: That thirty years ago, forty She's lost all perspective. I'm kidding, 431 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 2: I'm kidding. 432 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: All right, one more time for everybody on this Friday. 433 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 1: Winning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing 434 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: better than you've ever done before. And with that everyone, 435 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 1: thank you for listening to us. I'm Amy Robots. 436 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 2: And on TJ. Holmes.
