Speaker 1: Hey there, everybody. Welcome to this episode of Amy and
Speaker 1: TJ Jailed the bike. Now Robach right next to me
Speaker 1: on our own Mike, how you feeling today, dearest?
Speaker 2: I'm feeling good.
Speaker 1: Are you great?
Speaker 2: Actually? Yeah? We've got a busy fun week ahead.
Speaker 1: Busy fun week ahead. We have a busy fun kind
Speaker 1: of episode ahead. In this episode, you're gonna hear a
Speaker 1: royal photoshop controversy that I still don't understand. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get into when it's okay to date again after a
Speaker 1: divorce or after your spouse passes? Are you okay with
Speaker 1: your pilot taking a nap and the largest fine in
Speaker 1: the NBA this season. We'll get to all that, But first, Robes,
Speaker 1: you said the funniest thing in the world to me,
Speaker 1: oh before we left the house today to come here.
Speaker 1: Do you not even know what you said? That was
Speaker 1: beyond hilarious? I mean hilarious. I held it in because
Speaker 1: I didn't want to give it up before we came
Speaker 1: in and recorded the podcast.
Speaker 3: You saved it for the microphone, saved it. So the
Speaker 3: answer is no, I don't know. Oftentimes, when I am funny,
Speaker 3: you tell me after the fact and I don't realize
Speaker 3: how much fodder I provide.
Speaker 1: This was funny, the doozy, huh. I have not been
Speaker 1: feeling great for the past a couple of weeks. Really
Speaker 1: am trying to figure it out and losing more weight
Speaker 1: than I need to a lot of running, and I
Speaker 1: know the diet has changed a little bit, done some
Speaker 1: things weird, but I ain't feeling well, and you were
Speaker 1: concerned about that.
Speaker 2: I was concerned about that.
Speaker 3: I started googling it, which we're told oftentimes not to do,
Speaker 3: but I came up with my non medical opinion that
Speaker 3: you could possibly have some sort of vitamin deficiency because
Speaker 3: you don't eat meat, you very rarely do, and I
Speaker 3: know sometimes when you're vegan and vegetarian, you do have
Speaker 3: a bit of an extra effort you have to make
Speaker 3: to get some of those proteins that we would normally
Speaker 3: get from animal fats. So I was looking up that
Speaker 3: maybe you have a vitamin B twelve deficiency, or maybe
Speaker 3: you have a vitamin D deficiency. Now I know what
Speaker 3: you're laughing about, America.
Speaker 1: Who yeah, But I.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, so wait for it.
Speaker 3: I came to the conclusion that I really wanted you
Speaker 3: to go to the doctor to get a blood test.
Speaker 1: I'm okay. Is that what you want me to do, sweetie?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Are you having a difficult time getting me to go
Speaker 1: along and get this blood work that you think I
Speaker 1: so desperately need for my health?
Speaker 3: You said, you know, good and well, I'm not going
Speaker 3: to the doctor. And so then I started looking up
Speaker 3: at home kits you could order and you just have
Speaker 3: to prick your finger.
Speaker 1: And when you came in the room and suggested that,
Speaker 1: what did I do? What did I say?
Speaker 3: You laughed at me, But guess what, I have an
Speaker 3: announcement to make, because I was it's so funny. I
Speaker 3: didn't put two and two together that you were going
Speaker 3: to say this, and I didn't know what you were
Speaker 3: referring to.
Speaker 2: And you said, I was so funny.
Speaker 3: Because I was worried about you, and realizing how I
Speaker 3: felt worried about you, I went quietly. You were doing
Speaker 3: your thing, and I went onto the Nyu langone app
Speaker 3: and I made my appointment for my blood work.
Speaker 1: Everybody, everybody, I'm telling you that I did that period.
Speaker 1: It is there, it is.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what it is.
Speaker 1: You all, if you haven't been a following last episode,
Speaker 1: we had a renowned on cologist with us and a
Speaker 1: friend of ours, doctor Coleman, and we talked about the
Speaker 1: fact that Roeboch is a year and a half now,
Speaker 1: a year overdue, but you haven't had your blood work
Speaker 1: done for a year and a half and you're supposed
Speaker 1: to get it done every six months as a breast
Speaker 1: cancer survivor, you're way behind. And now with what with.
Speaker 3: My oncologist, that's what she suggested, every once different, So
Speaker 3: you can see right there. Tuesday, March twenty sixth, doctor Ratz,
Speaker 3: four pm.
Speaker 1: There And I did it because I.
Speaker 3: Realized what it felt like, literally in that moment, to
Speaker 3: be worried about you and hearing you saying, ain't in
Speaker 3: no way I'm going to an urgent care.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to a primary care doctor. I'm not
Speaker 2: doing it.
Speaker 3: I'll just try to figure it out, wait and see.
Speaker 3: And I felt frustrated, and then I thought in my mind,
Speaker 3: and it's funny.
Speaker 2: I didn't admit it to you, but inside I was like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, I'm doing the exact same thing. So
Speaker 2: then I went and made the appointment.
Speaker 1: Always say I love watching your process.
Speaker 2: To something funny, I did know idea what you were.
Speaker 1: For you that, because that is absolutely hilarious. Now, folks,
Speaker 1: please know last episode we did, which are not quite
Speaker 1: a week removed from recording it, but uh, with five
Speaker 1: or so days I hadn't made this. We were on
Speaker 1: that podcast, and you at your words were you know, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take it farther. I'm gonna tell you how
Speaker 1: far along I was willing to take this today. From
Speaker 1: our transcript of the last episode, Oh, TJ, what would
Speaker 1: your doctor say upon hearing you've gone a year past
Speaker 1: getting blood work done? As a press cancer survivor? Amy,
Speaker 1: she would tell me to make an appointment for my
Speaker 1: blood work? TJ? How soon? Amy? Probably should call when
Speaker 1: I'm done with this podcast.
Speaker 2: So it took me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, worried about you.
Speaker 2: Yes, make the appointment, But it worked.
Speaker 1: This is why it should be in a relationship, folks.
Speaker 1: They can save your life.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you surprised that I did that today.
Speaker 1: I am shocked. I didn't tell you. Yeah, But the
Speaker 1: only reason it came up is because you're looking at it.
Speaker 1: You worried about me get a.
Speaker 2: Blood test, And then I realized the pot.
Speaker 3: I was the pot calling the kettle black, and I
Speaker 3: needed to go ahead and do something.
Speaker 1: But this is great news. It is great to hear.
Speaker 3: So we going on.
Speaker 2: It's happening.
Speaker 1: I think so. But Emma was sitting here with us,
Speaker 1: our producer that you all hear us talk about reference
Speaker 1: to see it all take place in her face when
Speaker 1: you were coming around, like, I don't know what were
Speaker 1: you joking about? Now, I have no idea what I
Speaker 1: said that was funnier. Well then I said this, and
Speaker 1: then I said, yes, the light.
Speaker 2: Bulb, you could actually the light bulb go off in
Speaker 2: my head.
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, that's the health update. Yes, first we started
Speaker 1: the week. I guess is it busy that we started
Speaker 1: a week with? Was it an Oscars? Probably an Oscar party.
Speaker 3: It's like an Oscars gathering of your daughter.
Speaker 2: So it was a foursome.
Speaker 1: So we watched this show. I'm I'm not sure what
Speaker 1: I was excited about going into it. Actually, we were
Speaker 1: very excited about American fiction, which almost completely got shut out.
Speaker 1: I believe adaptist screenplay, but just a great film. Again,
Speaker 1: well you told somebody I think the other night run
Speaker 1: now don't walk, Yeah, and go see this movie. But
Speaker 1: what were you looking forward to the Oscars?
Speaker 3: Is?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 3: Usually I look forward to the Red Carpet and the dresses,
Speaker 3: and we.
Speaker 1: Did have our most fun with that.
Speaker 2: That's usually the most fun.
Speaker 3: I think one of my favorite moments was on the
Speaker 3: Red Carpet with Jodie Foster talking about being at a
Speaker 3: certain age where she just doesn't give an f what
Speaker 3: anybody thinks about her, and how this is the happiest
Speaker 3: she's ever been in her life. She was going if
Speaker 3: she's in her sixties, she looked fabulous, but whatever you
Speaker 3: could tell, she felt fabulous, And I love that idea
Speaker 3: as women, you know, I think a lot of us
Speaker 3: fear getting older and being irrelevant, and you know, all
Speaker 3: of the things that come with aging. To see someone
Speaker 3: that vibrant, that successful, that amazing and saying and you
Speaker 3: could tell with truth in her voice, this is the
Speaker 3: happy at she's ever been in her life because she
Speaker 3: doesn't give an f I think that is the one
Speaker 3: amazing thing that comes at a certain point when you've
Speaker 3: earned the right to feel that way, and we all.
Speaker 2: Should be able to feel like that. Are you there yet,
Speaker 2: I'm getting there. I'm not there yet. I'm getting there.
Speaker 3: I think after everything, when you start to We've joked
Speaker 3: about the fact that when people when you get to
Speaker 3: a place where you've been talked about her everything, the
Speaker 3: worst thing you could think it has been said about you.
Speaker 3: There is a freedom to that because you're kind of like, well,
Speaker 3: everyone's taking those shots, so I don't care anymore. I'm
Speaker 3: not in the I don't care anymore, but I'm getting
Speaker 3: there and I love seeing her own it.
Speaker 2: That was probably my favorite.
Speaker 1: Part of the whole night, was on the right corp
Speaker 1: even before the show. What about the actual show? What
Speaker 1: was your favorite?
Speaker 3: I mean, I know this sounds basic because I think
Speaker 3: this was everyone's favorite, but come on, it's Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 2: That was amazing.
Speaker 1: There's no question. It was so good that it was unreal.
Speaker 2: It was so good.
Speaker 3: And he was singing that that wasn't that wasn't him
Speaker 3: lip syncing. I mean, he really put on an amazing show.
Speaker 2: He went for it well.
Speaker 1: I love that it was. It's out of the norm
Speaker 1: for it show like that with the room full of
Speaker 1: those particular folks to see something that fun and I
Speaker 1: love though. That reminded me I don't think I've seen
Speaker 1: a performance of musical performance I enjoy that much. Since
Speaker 1: three six Mafia, to have these dudes from the streets
Speaker 1: of Memphis in front of that crowd talking about his
Speaker 1: heart out there for a pimp was just beautiful television.
Speaker 1: But it was fun. It was different and I I
Speaker 1: still haven't seen Barbie. Yeah, but that dude last night
Speaker 1: makes me want to watch Sunday.
Speaker 2: Night and with you. I loved Barbie.
Speaker 1: Okay, Now I don't want to watch it.
Speaker 3: One for the reasons you think, though there is an
Speaker 3: incredible social commentary and female empowerment.
Speaker 2: I loved. I loved the movie. Well, if you want
Speaker 2: to watch it, I'll try not to talk and tell
Speaker 2: you my favorite parts as we're watching it.
Speaker 1: That's fine. Oh you don't even look like you believe you.
Speaker 3: Oh, my goods, I just know. Yeah, we're to point now.
Speaker 3: We went to actually to the movies this weekend with
Speaker 3: your daughter. And see he's saying, look because he told
Speaker 3: me and to being that he would. He was refusing
Speaker 3: to sit in between us because we both talk at
Speaker 3: different times about different parts of the movie and he
Speaker 3: can't hear what's happening.
Speaker 2: But as it turns out, he sat in between us and.
Speaker 1: I didn't see much of the movie.
Speaker 2: Well, I did notice it for the first time. Chris laughing.
Speaker 3: Well, I would say something and then a few minutes
Speaker 3: later I look and she'd be telling you something.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, wow, we really do.
Speaker 1: I'm literally ping ponging between you two watching movies. But
Speaker 1: any way, what you go? I said at the top
Speaker 1: here this is the photoshop controversy. I don't fully on
Speaker 1: a royal photoshop controversy. I still really don't quite understand.
Speaker 3: Okay, so I'm kind of really into this story. Yes,
Speaker 3: I had fun going down a rabbit hole looking at
Speaker 3: it because there there was already conspiracy theories out there
Speaker 3: about Kate Middleton. She had abdominal surgery according to the
Speaker 3: Palace on January sixteenth. I believe it is odd she
Speaker 3: was in the in the.
Speaker 2: Hospital for almost two weeks.
Speaker 3: That is not something that you would typically consider to
Speaker 3: be a normal hospital stay for that kind of surgery.
Speaker 1: Abdominal.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they didn't go into any detail. They just
Speaker 3: said it wasn't cancer.
Speaker 1: Okay. Didn't you say something about you didn't have an
Speaker 1: abdominal or did you have an I've had.
Speaker 3: I've we know me and my medical history everything. I
Speaker 3: have had an apendectomy and I have had.
Speaker 2: This is the embarrassing one the terratoma.
Speaker 3: It's really rare and I'm not going to get into it,
Speaker 3: but I had to have that surgery too, so I've
Speaker 3: had two abdominal surgeries. Now, I mean, I don't know
Speaker 3: what hers is, and of course we don't need to know,
Speaker 3: but it just sparked a lot of conspiracy theories because
Speaker 3: it was an odd thing, and then you know, you're
Speaker 3: probably the two most surveilled people in all of UK
Speaker 3: in terms of the paparazzi.
Speaker 2: No one got pictures of.
Speaker 3: Them going to the hospital leaving the hospital. I think
Speaker 3: there was one photo of William visiting her, but that
Speaker 3: was it. So we haven't seen her. They said that
Speaker 3: we wouldn't see her until after Easter, but I think
Speaker 3: because they knew that there were so many rumors swirl
Speaker 3: about what may have really been going on or what's
Speaker 3: really happening, from she's dead to their getting divorced, to
Speaker 3: she's had plastic surgery.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just whatever you want.
Speaker 4: To call it.
Speaker 1: Wait, I didn't follow that. You said they already said
Speaker 1: we wouldn't be seeing her till later anyway, Okay.
Speaker 3: Correct, But I think just because they saw people speculating
Speaker 3: in that vacuum, that void of information.
Speaker 2: Yeah, William, they the palaces.
Speaker 3: William took the picture of Kate and her children and
Speaker 3: they released it on UK's Mother's Day.
Speaker 2: But when you look at the photo and to the point.
Speaker 3: Where the ap geddy Reuter's these major news organizations they
Speaker 3: initially republished it and then took it down and said,
Speaker 3: we aren't going to disseminate this photo because it was
Speaker 3: manipulated from the source. So anyone who's gone on to
Speaker 3: look at it, like her hair is kind of funny.
Speaker 1: I have been staring at this picture. I can't The.
Speaker 3: Hands are strange, like there's a pattern in the tile
Speaker 3: that doesn't match up.
Speaker 1: So there wasn't understand there was some strange thing.
Speaker 3: So it got then that reached such a fever pitch
Speaker 3: that and this is I believe.
Speaker 2: Almost unprecedented.
Speaker 3: Princess Kate actually put out an apology saying, hey, whoops, guys,
Speaker 3: I edited it and you know, obviously I'm not that
Speaker 3: great at it. I'm an amateur and left it at that.
Speaker 3: But that did not quiet all of the critics.
Speaker 1: I find it hard to believe. I don't think they
Speaker 1: say she's taken photos before, but you really are going
Speaker 1: to let I mean, knowing all the eyeballs are going
Speaker 1: to be on this picture. Let William take the picture,
Speaker 1: he gives it to his wife. She plays around with
Speaker 1: it on her laptop or her cell phone to photoshop
Speaker 1: it or do what she wants to do to it.
Speaker 1: And then what sends it to the press office? Say hey, guys,
Speaker 1: put that out for me.
Speaker 3: The controversy's going to continue and the conspiracy theories are
Speaker 3: going to probably escalate.
Speaker 1: I'm still amazed that she would be allowed to photo
Speaker 1: shop like I am going to work on this and
Speaker 1: give it back to you. Guys. Has to put out that.
Speaker 3: Just to your point, I don't think many people believe
Speaker 3: that she actually did it, although she is now on
Speaker 3: the record because she put it out on Twitter.
Speaker 2: Whoops, that was me, My bad.
Speaker 1: I'll take her at a word.
Speaker 2: You might be the only one.
Speaker 1: Wow, what what's the proper time? What is the answer
Speaker 1: to that question? If you're married, your spouse passes, how
Speaker 1: soon can you then start to date again and it
Speaker 1: not be.
Speaker 2: Distasteful?
Speaker 3: Yes, I don't personally think it's anyone else's business.
Speaker 1: There you go, so there is no time.
Speaker 3: I don't think you could ever say there is a
Speaker 3: correct time or a specific amount of warning. You don't
Speaker 3: know a what the status of that relationship actually was.
Speaker 3: B you don't know what it's like to be lonely,
Speaker 3: and sometimes, you know, when you're in those darkest hours,
Speaker 3: you reach out for comfort and then something happens, a
Speaker 3: relationship ensuites that you didn't even intend to happen. So
Speaker 3: it's not like you're going on dating apps and even
Speaker 3: if you are okay.
Speaker 1: And again, who are we to say about somebody else's situation,
Speaker 1: but we are talking about now somebody else's situation, and
Speaker 1: you just hit on almost exact thing. She said, this
Speaker 1: idea of loneliness. They were talking about Kelly Rizzo, who
Speaker 1: was married to Bob Sagett. She was married him for
Speaker 1: three years when he passed. That's been now well over
Speaker 1: two years ago. And yeah, she's come out here recently
Speaker 1: and proudly and showing that she is dating someone now
Speaker 1: did a red carpet official I guess is what they
Speaker 1: call it. But she started getting some feedback, some criticism
Speaker 1: that she felt the need to address.
Speaker 3: You actually did, and I remember you had such a
Speaker 3: beautiful interview with her right after Bob Saggett's death.
Speaker 2: Because it was unexpected.
Speaker 3: It was what did you lean from talking to her
Speaker 3: about their love and their relationship and what do you
Speaker 3: think about all of them?
Speaker 1: You know. The thing from that day the interview I
Speaker 1: remember most is when we were done. It was with
Speaker 1: her for a couple of hours. We were done, the
Speaker 1: crew was putting up and said bye to her. I
Speaker 1: thought she was gone because we were at the back
Speaker 1: of this house. Thought she was gone. I went back
Speaker 1: in and she came back in and was in tears,
Speaker 1: just in thanking me for the platform, thanking me for
Speaker 1: how we handled her delicately through the process. I remember
Speaker 1: that personal interaction, and that's when I saw, I guess
Speaker 1: more of a the pain of a woman who she
Speaker 1: was so composed, and she cried a little during the
Speaker 1: interview where she was so composed. But that's when she
Speaker 1: didn't feel like the wife of a star. She didn't
Speaker 1: feel like the actress or the podcaster, and she's a
Speaker 1: public figure in her own right. She didn't feel like that.
Speaker 1: She was a woman who just lost somebody she loved,
Speaker 1: and that stood out to me more than anything. So
Speaker 1: I was surprised you brought this to my attention, like
Speaker 1: she's being criticized to the point she had to come out,
Speaker 1: and she put out a couple of videos on TikTok
Speaker 1: in which she was actually trying to explain her not
Speaker 1: that's not the right word, that's the right word. She
Speaker 1: defend the right word.
Speaker 4: The fact that it's sad to me that she felt
Speaker 4: the need to defend herself. But I get it, I
Speaker 4: totally get it. But that is something that I feel
Speaker 4: like is just despicable. Then anyone wants to wait in
Speaker 4: on someone who's already suffered an extreme loss, that they
Speaker 4: don't get to be happy again, but they don't get
Speaker 4: to move on again.
Speaker 2: And from what I read, she even talked.
Speaker 4: To his daughter's correct, Yes she did if I started
Speaker 4: dating again.
Speaker 1: She even said she wasn't open to the possibility for
Speaker 1: a full year, like just take the next year off
Speaker 1: the table, But she didn't just to hear anybody questioning again,
Speaker 1: I didn't spend time around the two of them together,
Speaker 1: but the time I spend with her to hear anybody
Speaker 1: questioning her love of that man now that he's gone
Speaker 1: and she's has to move on with her life. And
Speaker 1: you talked about loneliness, I just can't imagine. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I've stayed in touch with her ever since. She's
Speaker 1: just some money I've always appreciated and adored. And Kelly,
Speaker 1: you're listening, do you think just to all the love
Speaker 1: out there to you. But that was a tough one.
Speaker 3: I'm sure you all saw, and so many of us
Speaker 3: travel and the idea of one or two or both
Speaker 3: of your pilots falling asleep at the same time is
Speaker 3: absolutely terrifying. But that's exactly what happened in Indonesia. We
Speaker 3: should say no one was harmed. I think there were
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty three passengers on board that plane,
Speaker 3: and it landed safely without incident. However, there was twenty
Speaker 3: eight minutes where air traffic control could not get a
Speaker 3: hold of either one of the pilots, and they actually
Speaker 3: veered off, of course, which is disturbing again because they
Speaker 3: both fell usen.
Speaker 1: But when they got back in touch, initially they said, yeah,
Speaker 1: we have some radio issues.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was the radio just malfunctioned.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know what to say, but okay, now
Speaker 1: here's a scary part. All right. There are some places
Speaker 1: that do allow for pilots to sleep, to take naps
Speaker 1: while they are in the cockpit in their chairs, and.
Speaker 2: It's not in the United States.
Speaker 3: Yes, at least a little bit, and it made me
Speaker 3: feel a little bit better. However, if you travel internationally,
Speaker 3: Canada it is among the countries that allow their pilots
Speaker 3: to sleep.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to scare people a little bit before
Speaker 1: I told them, don't worry about it. In the US,
Speaker 1: the FA does not allow for that at all, but
Speaker 1: there are arguments that, in fact it's called controlled rest
Speaker 1: that you should allow on a longer flight. Some of
Speaker 1: these guys maybe not getting all the rest they need
Speaker 1: or not as sharp. If there's a co pilot right there,
Speaker 1: we go on an autopilot, let them take a thirty
Speaker 1: minute nap sitting in the chair. Would you be comfortable
Speaker 1: with that?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think that's a tough one for me. I saw
Speaker 3: that if it's an eight hour flight or more, they
Speaker 3: actually have beds, have a room for the pilot to
Speaker 3: go and sleep for thirty minutes. Forty minutes I think
Speaker 3: is the most they can sleep, and.
Speaker 2: Then they have to have.
Speaker 3: At least thirty minutes after they wake up before they land,
Speaker 3: which I appreciate because anyone who's woken up from a
Speaker 3: nap knows you're not at your sharpest, So that is
Speaker 3: a little concerning to me. But sleeping while you're sitting
Speaker 3: at the control, that's creepy to me. And then who's
Speaker 3: to say the other one isn't going to fall asy,
Speaker 3: which is what happened in adnesia. So I just feel like,
Speaker 3: I don't know, I'm not comfortable with that. I do
Speaker 3: know that they say the power nap thing is good,
Speaker 3: you're sharper.
Speaker 2: And fatigue is more dangerous. But I think the most
Speaker 2: dangerous thing of all is having no one awake. I
Speaker 2: don't know. They call me crazy.
Speaker 3: I even asked you, in what other profession where people's
Speaker 3: lives are in your hands, are you allowed to sleep
Speaker 3: on the job.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's not an apt comparison. I don't think
Speaker 1: we can. I mean, firefighters aren't taking a nap on
Speaker 1: the way with the siren on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my surgeon doesn't need to take a power nap.
Speaker 3: He's got me over sharper.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just I understand we should give pilots and anyone
Speaker 3: in that sort of like life or death responsibility of
Speaker 3: a job.
Speaker 2: Kind of thing.
Speaker 3: We should give them enough of a break that they
Speaker 3: have to go get those eight hours of sleep each night.
Speaker 3: I mean, I know you can't police how much people sleep.
Speaker 1: What was this guy's a deal in Indonesia? What was it?
Speaker 3: So the pilot asked if he could take a nap,
Speaker 3: and the co pilot said, yes, I'm on it. But
Speaker 3: the problem was the co pilot is a new father
Speaker 3: and said he had not slept much as we all
Speaker 3: know what it's like when you have a newborn, and
Speaker 3: so he inadvertently fell asleep because he's a new father.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's all you know. The part that
Speaker 1: that got me more that the one pilot was thirty
Speaker 1: two the other was twenty eight. I don't think I
Speaker 1: want any twenty eight year old at my point. Do
Speaker 1: you remember what you were doing at twenty eight. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't want one hundred and fifty three lives in my hand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like a salt and pepper kind of a pilot.
Speaker 1: No good.
Speaker 3: When I see that, maybe that's when you know I'm
Speaker 3: the older, you are the safer I feel.
Speaker 2: I'll just feel like that's the case. Call me crazy,
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just I'm a believer that I just feel like
Speaker 3: we should be able to say, hey, this is that
Speaker 3: kind of a job. Your number one responsibility is to
Speaker 3: make sure you're rested before you get on that plane.
Speaker 1: Okay. Last thing that I will present to you on
Speaker 1: this argument is the movement towards and so many incidents
Speaker 1: don't have the number in front of me of incidents
Speaker 1: on planes I have to do with pilot fatigue. So
Speaker 1: would you does that make you want to have more
Speaker 1: of a conversation You still an absolute no? Or you know,
Speaker 1: maybe a thirty minute nap is good for all of
Speaker 1: us on board.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry the longer flights where they go and they
Speaker 3: go into the bed and the other person clearly knows
Speaker 3: that it's on them to be responsible. I don't feel
Speaker 3: comfortable with them now, Okay, Well they're out to controls.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: It's like going to the bathrooms like marijuana smoke coming
Speaker 1: out of the cockpit.
Speaker 2: You don't want to It's not going to be okay
Speaker 2: with that. Never, No, I'm not.
Speaker 3: I'm not.
Speaker 2: Oh, you're not going to be getting a lot of
Speaker 2: sleep here soon basketball per usual, you're gonna want to
Speaker 2: sleep than you usually get.
Speaker 3: But we're already getting a basketball headline before March Madness
Speaker 3: officially begins.
Speaker 1: See this is lovely. I'm not you made the parallel
Speaker 1: because the story we're talking about has to do with
Speaker 1: the NBA, which has nothing to do with the college
Speaker 1: game basketball that's taking place in March Madness.
Speaker 2: To me, they're people and they dribble the ball and
Speaker 2: they shoot it.
Speaker 1: Oh if y'all could only see the gesture she made,
Speaker 1: how do they dribble the ball again?
Speaker 3: Up?
Speaker 1: Yes, they do it. Oh my god, I mean it's the.
Speaker 2: Same sports, collegiate versus refeshion.
Speaker 1: I get no, no, no, I get it. I get. But yes,
Speaker 1: Marshmadness is starting. It's right around the corner that's coming up.
Speaker 1: So yes I will every single game. Thank you Turner
Speaker 1: for doing what you did all those years ago. They
Speaker 1: put every single game on TV on one of their
Speaker 1: cable networks. You can see it all. I know, every game.
Speaker 3: I know. I even said, wait, why was I watching
Speaker 3: basketball this weekend if it hasn't even officially began.
Speaker 1: It was Duke North Carolina. But okay, it was a
Speaker 1: good game. It was a great game.
Speaker 2: I'm getting into it.
Speaker 1: But this is what the basketball story. The basketball headline
Speaker 1: is that the biggest fine in the NBA has just
Speaker 1: been handed out for the season, the biggest fine of
Speaker 1: the year, and it goes to mister Rudy Gobert of
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has been fined one hundred thousand
Speaker 1: dollars and he didn't say a word.
Speaker 2: Oh, he just made a little gesture, made.
Speaker 1: A gesture just rubbing those fingers together. Money sign and
Speaker 1: it cost him a hundred K. Now, before I get
Speaker 1: into details about this, like, who the hell was Rudy Gobert,
Speaker 1: some might ask, and you didn't.
Speaker 2: Know the name, but absolutely asked that and I did.
Speaker 1: And as soon as I said he was, you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: that guy, that guy, Yes, he is a patient zero.
Speaker 1: I guess uh. In the NBA when the pandemic hit,
Speaker 1: he was the young fella who was playing out in
Speaker 1: Where was he at the time. He was in Utah
Speaker 1: at the time, but COVID was happening. He was in
Speaker 1: the news. The NBA had not shut down yet and
Speaker 1: after a shoot around he was doing his interviews with
Speaker 1: the press. He got up from the press table where
Speaker 1: all the mics were set up, and he touched them all.
Speaker 1: It was kind of a joke, like he's kind of
Speaker 1: making fun in my germs. Two days after that, that
Speaker 1: young fellow was diagnosed with COVID two days and the
Speaker 1: NBA shut down.
Speaker 2: He shut down the NBA.
Speaker 1: I disort it. It was gonna happen probably, but he
Speaker 1: but after all that, so that is the guy we
Speaker 1: are talking about now. But he he look gambling. It
Speaker 1: seems weird to separate now gambling and professional sports. It's
Speaker 1: still weird to me though.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll sit there and ask you as we're
Speaker 3: watching the commentators or even watching.
Speaker 2: The game, like what what's that the spread? I mean,
Speaker 2: just the fact that you can be gambling you're watching
Speaker 2: the whole thing. It's strange to me still. And yet
Speaker 2: it's a huge business and with that comes problems.
Speaker 1: But there's money, the relationships now that the leagues have
Speaker 1: with these sports company sports betting companies, and oh that's fine, okay,
Speaker 1: But Rudy Gobert didn't like the way the things were
Speaker 1: going and the calls were being made in the game.
Speaker 1: So he is gesturing to an official Scott Foster and
Speaker 1: suggests doing with the money signs directly to him, and
Speaker 1: of course he got a tech and later he was
Speaker 1: fined one hundred thousand dollars, which is the maximum fine
Speaker 1: allowable for a verbal act, if you will, for a
Speaker 1: technical file type of a thing.
Speaker 3: He was insinuating that the rep was making calls on
Speaker 3: the typically to change the game.
Speaker 1: On the take. Now that sounds like a really outrageous accusation,
Speaker 1: and now there's no accusation in being made here about
Speaker 1: that official Scott Foster. However, Scott Foster was investigated and
Speaker 1: he was He faced some criticism for his relationship with
Speaker 1: Tim donaghy, who is the NBA official who actually went
Speaker 1: to prison for his hand in a scandal of fixing
Speaker 1: and betting on NBA games. Scott Foster and Tim Donahue
Speaker 1: were close, so he had a part in that. So
Speaker 1: now Rudy Gobert is doing that towards that guy extra rup.
Speaker 2: She knew that that was a source subject.
Speaker 1: He probably did, and he knew not to do that,
Speaker 1: and he said afterwards, I know I'm going to take
Speaker 1: a hit here.
Speaker 2: Didn't it cost?
Speaker 3: Some people would argue that cost them the game because
Speaker 3: they went into overtime and.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh goodness, yes, yes, yes, oh absolute. Look
Speaker 1: at you read no better, look at that. You see
Speaker 1: the little shows a shaving there.
Speaker 2: I didn't know what the money sign was. I was like,
Speaker 2: what could that be? I was trying to figure it out.
Speaker 3: And then when you robe your fingers together, I was like, oh.
Speaker 1: Whats your money sign?
Speaker 3: Like this?
Speaker 2: I was like, what did he like make the dollar sign?
Speaker 2: To figure out what the money sign was? So full disclosure,
Speaker 2: I'm not totally there yet, but I'm working on it.
Speaker 1: Oh, we are working on a lot of things, and
Speaker 1: we are working on a lot of things this week.
Speaker 1: This is going to be a very exciting week. We
Speaker 1: should give this update. We have something exciting coming up
Speaker 1: here in town, here in New York. We are going
Speaker 1: to be putting on a little bit of a live,

Speaker 3: cleared to get.
Speaker 2: On a plane.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it didn't certainly wasn't going to be able to
Speaker 1: get on a plane. So life happens. Parents get older,
Speaker 1: and these are things that that do come up. The
Speaker 1: timing is bizarre that both of our parents are not
Speaker 1: literally cannot travel to come to New York.
Speaker 3: You know, our parents they would they would, you know,
Speaker 3: walk through fire to come see us.
