Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good

Speaker 1: morning everyone, It's Tuesday, October twenty eighth. I'm Amy Robot

Speaker 1: and I'm TJ.

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 2: Holmes, and we begin on this Tuesday morning.

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: Yes, is it with.

6
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 2: Full disclosure, slept on the couch last night, folks. It

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 2: happened sometimes with couples, somebody ends up on the couch.

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 2: This was not a doghouse situation. I bet some people

9
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: listening Robes maybe their husbands slept on the couch last night.

10
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: It was necessary.

11
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 3: Come on, World Series.

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,480
Speaker 2: We had a history making game last night that Robes

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: was essentially two games were played.

14
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: It went eighteen so that sounds like a snoozefest to me.

15
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 2: Snooze got more exciting as the up. Yes, because you

16
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: realized you were watching something special. Yes, folks, if you

17
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: missed it, the World Series game last night was one

18
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: of the longest in history. We'll tell you exactly how

19
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 2: long it went on. We'll tell you exactly how long

20
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: I was on the couch, and we'll tell you what's

21
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: coming up tonight, although we want to make sure we

22
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 2: tell you right now as we get going on this

Speaker 1: Grammar is a new dad at seventy. Diddy has an

30
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: official release date. New pressure now to end the shutdown

31
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: today on arrest for putting a bounty on Bondy and

32
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: a sixty year old beauty actually a seventy five year

33
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: old beauty being chopped down. Oh yes, no, yes, seventy

34
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: five years good cause, they say, though right, yes, ultimately

35
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: it will it will serve others in multiple fashions.

36
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: We will explain what's going on there, but we do

37
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 2: need to begin this run morning with Melissa. A lot

38
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: of concern about this major storm. Hurricane Melissa is stronger

39
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 2: than Hurricane Katrina, Robes. I know a lot of time,

40
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 2: Category two, what does that mean? Category four? What does

41
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 2: that mean? Ah, some of that and the winds and

42
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: all this stuff. But when you say there is a

43
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: storm stronger than Katrina, we immediately understand what that means,

44
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 2: and that what Melissa is right now It is a

45
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 2: Category five, so it has sustained winds of about one

46
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy plus miles an hour. But it has

47
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 2: sustained this category five status for about twenty four plus hours.

48
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: Now robes and they say this sucker might still be

49
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 2: picking up a little steam.

50
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: It's a monster of a storm and it's expected to

51
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 1: officially make landfall in Jamaica at some point this morning.

52
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: As that category five that means its winds are above

53
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy five miles an hour, it is

54
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: the strongest storm seen anywhere in the world this year,

55
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 1: and as a category five, it would be the strongest

56
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: storm to ever hit Jamaica. I think Category four was

57
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: the next most destructive, and that was back in the eighties.

58
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: So rain, not wind, is anticipated to be the biggest

59
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: issue though, because the storm is crawling along, it's only

60
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: going about two miles an hour. Just imagine most people

61
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: walk at the pace of three miles per hour. So

62
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: that gives you an idea, y that's crazy, and that's

63
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: a really cool way to look at it in terms

64
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: of just giving you at forty inches of rain predicted

65
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: in some areas, this is going to be catastrophic.

66
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: It is the and again you know how I get

67
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: on some of these deep dies on science. But they

68
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: measure these things based on their pressure, and this one

69
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 2: has a pressure that's lower than Katrina ever was, which

70
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 2: means it's stronger. Even though it will both category five

71
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: wind speeds about the same, it has a lower pressure

72
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 2: they can measure this is more powerful than Katrina.

73
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: And it's going to last longer, it sounds like with

74
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: how slow moving it is, and that's what's so devastating.

75
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 2: Anything about that. Think of how fast you just walk

76
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 2: to the grocery store right now. The storm is moving

77
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 2: slower than you are and dropping all that water. We'll

78
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 2: keep an eye on that this morning. But again as

79
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 2: of this recording, and it not officially made landfall, but

80
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 2: expected to do so at some point this morning. Continuing

81
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: on the run. Now it's a day twenty eight of

82
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 2: the government shut down, and the largest union representing federal

83
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 2: employees is urging Congress to immediately end it. They say

84
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 2: we should not robes get to a day twenty nine

85
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: of this name that's right.

86
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: Specifically, it's calling on lawmakers to adopt the short term

87
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: funding bill that would immediately reopen the government. That House

88
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: pass bill has been voted on and voted down twelve

89
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: times already in the Senate. So, the American Federation of

90
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: Government Employees said, in addition to immediately ending the shutdown,

91
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: it wants lawmakers to ensure that workers will get that

92
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: back pay. Yes.

93
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: And in a statement, the union put it this way,

94
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 2: none of these steps that they're suggesting favors one political

95
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 2: side over another. They favor the American people who expect

96
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 2: stability from their government and responsibility from their leaders. That's

97
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: pretty It's.

98
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: Kind of the basic things we expect from our government.

99
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 2: You know, you basic. You know, I wrote this down.

100
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: I want to give this lady credit because it brought

101
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 2: the thing home from e robes in a new way

102
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: that you know, I give a credit. CBS interviewed a

103
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: woman talking about, you know, the SNAP program, food drying up.

104
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: She said this, it should not be a human privilege

105
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: to be fed. That should be the end of the shutdown.

106
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 2: She did, end today, get into a room, we'll figure

107
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: it out. Yeah, political leverage winning points, and you cannot

108
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: justify to somebody struggling to put food on the table

109
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: that this is worth it for them. This is so unnecessary.

110
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 2: But when she put that it should be a human

111
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 2: privilege to eat.

112
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: And especially considering that the lawmakers who are creating this

113
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: game of chicken are getting paid, are going home to

114
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: see their families, are taking breaks like that all needs

115
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: to be recognized.

116
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,799
Speaker 2: Most of them are home right now. But yeah, anyway,

117
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: I just I wrote it down because she said it,

118
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 2: and it brought things home in an a different way.

119
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: That is immediate perspective, all right. Next up on the run,

120
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: Police have arrested a twenty nine year old Minnesota man

121
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: for going on TikTok and saying he wanted Attorney General

122
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 1: Pam Bondi dead or alive, but preferably dead. Tyler Avalos

123
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: offered forty five thousand dollars to anyone who could make

124
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: that happen for him, and included a picture of Bondi

125
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,679
Speaker 1: with a sniper scope red dot on her forehead.

126
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: This is what we do now. FBI agents became aware

127
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: of the TikTok post from an anonymous tipster who submitted

128
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 2: a report to the FBI National Threat Operations Center. That's

129
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 2: good to know it's there and it's working. Authority, say TikTok, Google,

130
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 2: Comcast help the FBI find and trace Avolo's identity. He's

131
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: been charged with creating an online post containing a threat

132
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: to injure and was released on bail, and he was

133
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: wearing a GPS monitor.

134
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: Makes sense they would want to keep tabs on him

135
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: after that. Next up on the Run, Sean Ditty Combs

136
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 1: already has a release date May eighth, of twenty twenty eight.

137
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: The Federal Bureau of Prisons has posted that date to

138
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: in its inmate database as the official date when Diddy

139
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: will be eligible for release from prison.

140
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,839
Speaker 2: He was sentenced, as you know, earlier this month, to

141
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: fifty months in prison following his convictions on two counts

142
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: of transportation to engage in prostitution. The official release date

143
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 2: factors in time served. So he's been held since his

144
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 2: arrest in September of last year. So robes with all

145
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 2: the calculations that he's now done, they've come up with

146
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 2: an official date. So May eighth, he can circle that

147
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 2: on the calendars.

148
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: What is that? Three three years and some change three

149
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: and a half years. But I'm curious, does can that

150
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: change based on good behavior? Do they do that sort

151
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: of thing?

152
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 2: I think there are several factors, because it can Yeah,

153
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: that's when he's eligible. So when they say eligible, what

154
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 2: is that factory?

155
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: I don't know.

156
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 2: It's not the hard to date necessary and.

157
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: Every state's different, like how much time you have to

158
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: serve versus how much time you can get off for

159
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: good behavior, YadA, YadA, YadA. But that's a ballpark, all right.

160
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: Next up on the run. You ever heard of General

161
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: Albert Pike?

162
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: Didn't know this guy?

163
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, we had not heard of this person.

164
00:07:58,600 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: He's a big deal though.

165
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: Apparently he is a former Confederate general and he's making

166
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: a comeback and that's causing quite the stir in DC. Yeah.

167
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: Do you know this park? I wasn't familiar with it.

168
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: Was it called Liberty No? No, No, Judiciary Park is what

169
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: it's called. I didn't know.

170
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: There are a lot of parks, and Jesus, I have

171
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: no idea. I know you from the area or spit

172
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: some time I lived there in the area. But this

173
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: statue of General Albert Pike, it was actually torn down

174
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty during George Floyd demonstrations there. It's been

175
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: restored and returned to its original spot in Judiciary Square.

176
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: Apparently a park there. It has a bunch of government buildings.

177
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: But that sounds like every block in DC exact. Okay.

178
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 2: So it came down on live TV when demonstrators put

179
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 2: ropes and chains around it, pulled the thing down.

180
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: So the National Park Service announced earlier this year that

181
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: it was being fixed and going to be put back

182
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: in place. This is what they had to say. The

183
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: restoration aligns with federal responsibilities under historic preservation law and

184
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: recent executive orders to beautify the nation's capital and restore

185
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: pre existing statues.

186
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 2: Okay. So the statue had been there since nineteen oh two,

187
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: but city officials have been trying to get it removed

188
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 2: for decades now. The DC representative, I think a lot

189
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 2: of people familiar with her. She's been there for.

190
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: Ever since when I lived there, which is thirty years ago.

191
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: Eleanor Holmes Norton.

192
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 2: Yes, everybody knows that. You could anybody right now, here's

193
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: the name. You could see her right now with short

194
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 2: haired glasses.

195
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: Okay.

196
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: So she has introduced several bills over the years to

197
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 2: remove this statue, and she called Pike and some of

198
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 2: this legislation a chief founder of the post Civil War

199
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 2: Ku Klux clan, now Norton said about it going back

200
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 2: up says it's indefensible and morally objectionable to put the

201
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 2: statue back up, said, it's a statue honoring a racist.

202
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 2: There is ongoing, not definitive information about his connection, possibly

203
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: to the Ku Klux Klan.

204
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: Well, I was just going to ask that follow up,

205
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: is that documented?

206
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: It's it's I don't they say the evidence isn't definitive.

207
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: Got about it, but there are suggestions. But he was

208
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 2: a Confederate general, and just so his background has been debated.

209
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 2: But this is part of the ongoing debate. A lot

210
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: of Confederate generals and things honoring the Confederacy have been

211
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: coming down over the years. Other people say, what is it?

212
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: It's heritage, nasty heritage, not Hayes. Yes, we've seen that

213
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: on a few trucks. All right, Next up on New York,

214
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: Next up on the Run. CBS Evening News anchor John

215
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: Dickerson is leaving the network and no real explanation has

216
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: been given.

217
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 2: And it almost makes sense that there's no explanation. That

218
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 2: is the explanation, right. Dickerson has been co anchoring the

219
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 2: evening broadcast only since January. This was after the exit

220
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 2: of Nora O'Donnell. Now He's been with a network in

221
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 2: varying capacities over the years, but was tapped to co

222
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: anchor the evening News with Maurice Dubois, who's been a

223
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: local CBS evening news anchor here for a long time.

224
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 2: And this was something brand new we hadn't seen. You

225
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 2: got two dudes up there. They were doing kind of

226
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 2: longer form storytelling that you would see in sixty minutes.

227
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: It was a little jarring, actually, I know they were

228
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: trying something new, and yes, actually the former head of

229
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 1: sixty Minutes was in charge of creating this new format,

230
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: which again was very different than anything we've seen, but

231
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: the ratings have not been what they had hoped. Dickerson

232
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 1: made the announcement on Instagram yesterday, saying this, at the

233
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: end of this year, I will leave CBS, sixteen years

234
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: after I sat in as Face the Nation anchor for

235
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: the first time. I am extremely grateful for all that

236
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: CBS gave me, the work, the audience's attention, and the

237
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: honor of being a part of the network's history. And

238
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: I am grateful for my dear colleagues who've made me

239
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: a better journalist and a better human. I will miss you.

240
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: Nice note simple as that. But the network put things

241
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: out very much honoring him in his time and his journalism.

242
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 2: But no one is necessarily saying why and why.

243
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: It's just fifty seven, so he had potentially quite a

244
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: few years luck in a very long and respectable, more

245
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: than respectable significant career that he's had.

246
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 2: Hey, life ashore. Maybe he just wants to hang it

247
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 2: up in George time, go fishing. Maybe that's it. Maybe

248
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 2: has nothing to do with the changes at the head

249
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 2: of that network.

250
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's just coincidental.

251
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 2: All right, we'll stay with us, folks, if you like

252
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 2: to hear more sarcasm after this break. When we come back,

253
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 2: a further evidence that I have been right all along.

254
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: Robes and why you cannot go to bed on a

255
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 2: live sporting event. Also seventy years old and a new

256
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 2: dad Kelsey Grammer, congratulations, will explain the new baby. And

257
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 2: there's a new tree coming to New York, but they

258
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 2: had to chop it down first. Stay here, all right, folks,

259
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 2: we continue on this Tuesday morning ron with further proof

260
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 2: of my theory. You cannot go to sleep on sporting events,

261
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 2: because if you do, you might miss history.

262
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: You know what you can do the next morning, after

263
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: you've had a full night. I say it. Don't watch

264
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: the undelievably phenomenally concise.

265
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 2: Yes you cannot.

266
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: They're so good.

267
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 2: It's a live sporting event. You do not watch it live.

268
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 2: Haven't you heard? It's the only thing worth it. They

269
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 2: tell you the weather before it happens, they tell you

270
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 2: the news after it happens. Sports is the only thing

271
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 2: worth watching a lot.

272
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: What's your sleep score, baby, I.

273
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 2: Don't need a sleep score because I woke up bouncing

274
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 2: off the walls because I know the score of the

275
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 2: game last night. Last night, Game three of the World

276
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 2: Series delivered in a major way for US sports fans,

277
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 2: and it tied the record for the longest World Series

278
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 2: game in history.

279
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: The La Dodgers and the Toronto Blues Well, because I

280
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: was just like that sounds like hell. The La Dodgers

281
00:13:56,040 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: and the Toronto Blue Jays played an instant classic ording

282
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 1: to sell them last night. That went eighteen innings. That's

283
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: two full nine inning games. Wow. Double The torture teams

284
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: were tied five to five after the seventh inning.

285
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 2: Oh my god. You know what people do complain that

286
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: baseball is too long.

287
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying like if it was a basketball game,

288
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: it'd be different, Like that's fast paced and you're excited

289
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: and you're back and forth. A baseball game, there's a

290
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: reason why you have to have a seventh inning stretch.

291
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 3: No, but the baseball game, the pitching, the strategy, which

292
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 3: guy you put in to match up with that guy,

293
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 3: You're going through your bullpen, you're running out of pitchers,

294
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: all this stuff, what's going on.

295
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 2: But yes, the game was tied five to five after

296
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 2: seven innings and they went ropes another eleven innings with

297
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 2: nobody's scoring.

298
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 1: Okay, you just proved my point. But it was thrilling.

299
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 2: It was thrill.

300
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: It can be thrilling, thrilling to watch nobody score for

301
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: seventh innings.

302
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: Strategy and skill and talent and pitching in sports.

303
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: You will never convince that was thrilling.

304
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 2: Okay, But again, finally, bottom of the eighteen Dodger first basement,

305
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman crushed a walk off homer ended this game

306
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: after six hours and thirty nine glorious minutes of baseball.

307
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 2: And yes, tis the longest World Series game ever with

308
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 2: eighteen innings, But the other one that went eighteen innings

309
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 2: was actually seven hours and twenty minutes, so that key

310
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 2: them that one was longer. But that one also, Rhodes,

311
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: was just not that long ago. And it was a

312
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: Dodgers game in the World Series twenty eighteen that went longer.

313
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 2: So the Dodgers I.

314
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: Missed that one too, all right. Next up on the Run,

315

Speaker 2: So about November eighth is when they expect.

344
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: November eighth, we should steer very clear of Rockefeller Center

345
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: because all eyes will be on all the folks. I know,

346
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: I didn't need to tell you that with like.

347
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 2: November first through like February third, you should stay Rockefeller Center.

348
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: This year, the Rockefeller Christmas Tree will be decorated with

349
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 1: fifty thousand multi colored led lights. I didn't realize this.

350
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 1: This is the same star they've had up for a

351
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: couple of years. Do you did you know what weighs

352
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 1: nine hundred pounds?

353
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,640
Speaker 2: I did know. They used the same one every.

354
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 1: Yep, the last several years, it's been a nine hundred

355
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 1: pounds Swarovski star. I had to look that up to

356
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: make sure I had that right. That seems impossible.

357
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 2: Are they doing Are they the same ones to do

358
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 2: the ball?

359
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: I believe it's the Swarovski crystals on that as well.

360
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: So this is the annual tree lighting ceremony is schedule

361
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: for December third. So yes, it will be a very

362
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: busy place to be in New York City for the

363
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: next several months. And we mentioned it is all for

364
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 1: a good cause. The tree owner donated this, of course,

365
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 1: the Rockefeller Center, and then they will donate the tree

366
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 1: to habitat for humanity. It'll be milled into lumber to

367
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: create homes for folks who need homes. So I love

368
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: the idea that this actually is a giving tree in

369
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: a lot of ways.

370
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: Okay, that's cool.

371
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: Yes, And so for our quote of the day on

372
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 1: this Tuesday, as you head out this from it's a

373
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: Buddhist proverb. I loved it. Learning to unlearn is the

374
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: highest form of learning and.

375
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 2: The most difficult learning isn't it man the old dog

376
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 2: new tricks thing, and some people set in their ways.

377
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 2: It is man to unlearn some of those habits, yep.

378
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: And in some of it you know you were, you

379
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: inherited from your family unknowingly, and then you have to

380
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: recognize the behavior sometimes and other people, to then see

381
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: it in yourself and say, you know what, I want

382
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 1: it to change. And I don't think it's ever too

383
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 1: late to do so. But that's a that's a phrase

384
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard before. That is so true. Learning to

385
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: unlearn is the highest form of learning. And with that, everyone,
