Speaker 1: least seven lives plus. Prince Harry finally addresses those accusations

Speaker 1: from the chairwoman of his former charity sent to ballet

22
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: after the UK has announced an investigation into the charity.

23
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: Also, President Trump is sending a strong message to schools

24
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 2: across the country drop all DEI or lose all federal funding. Also,

25
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: another controversial Trump nominee is confirmed. Doctor Memet Oz will

26
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,720

00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: President Trump, who by the way, called him a coward

31
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: and is snow White's less than anticipated success at the

32
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,960

Speaker 1: planned live action remake for my favorite Rapunzels Tangled.

34
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: Also this morning, a sweet moment to tell you about.

35
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: In Vegas, of all places, Tom Cruise took up pause

36
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 2: from promoting to honor his friend Val Kilmer. Will tell

37
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 2: you exactly what he said. I think we like a

38
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 2: lot of people. Yesterday spent a lot of time with

39
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: the TV on to a vow Kilmer movie. I think

40
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: Tombstone was the one we had going. We went with

41
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: Batman Forever later, but uh, you couldn't help it. Just

42
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: wanted to go check him out.

43
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, you had a steady stream of Kilmer movies on

44
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: in honor of him. All right, we're gonna begin the

45
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: big story today on this Friday morning run with the

46
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: stock markets. The headlines are unanimous and punishing. Global stock

47
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: markets buckled, cratered, plummeted, you picked the word, but they

48
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: were all negative. And this was all following President Trump's

49
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 1: big tariff announcement this week.

50
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, folks, we're seeing the times of declines we haven't

51
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 2: seen in years. Two point seven trillion dollars in market

52
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 2: value was lost on Thursday, one day. Two point seven

53
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: trillion dollars gone, biggest decline we have seen since the

54
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: pandemic that was in March of twenty twenty s and

55
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: P five hundred was down four percent. Now Jones down

56
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: three and a half percent, down nearly six percent.

57
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 1: The markets all responding to Trump's announcement of that minimum

58
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: ten percent tariff on all US imports. But of course

59
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: that was just the starting point. Most countries are going

60
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: to see a lot bigger percentage points than that. Trump

61
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: announcing we will charge every country half the rate they

62
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 1: charge us. So that has caused countries around the world

63
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: to threaten hire retaliatory tariffs, which means we are in

64
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: the midst of a full blown international trade war.

65
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: So President Trump was asked about this yesterday, and this

66
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 2: is what he told reporters. Quote, I think it's going

67
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 2: well end Quote. Yes, there was more. He damn sure,

68
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 2: better be more than that. He went on to say this,

69
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: the markets are going to boom, the stock is going

70
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: to boom, the country is going to boom, and the

71
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 2: rest of the world wants to see if there is

72
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: any way they can make a deal.

73
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: Wait, did you hear that last part, if they can

74
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: make a deal. Yeah, that's right. The President said he

75
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: is willing to make a deal, saying the tariffs give

76
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: the US great power to negotiate. Why is that such

77
00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: a big deal that he just said that. Well, it's

78
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: the exact opposite of what White House officials were repeatedly

79
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: saying earlier in the day, insisting that Trump would not

80
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: negotiate or back off from the tariffs he announced this week.

81
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: Looks like anything and everything is up for grabs.

82
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: Now, well, yeah, it's unclear. So if it's unclear, that's

83
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 2: what investors, that's what the markets hate. Give us some

84
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: kind of certainty give us something to go with. So

85
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: the back and forth. Look, folks, he said this is

86
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: going to be painful for a little while. This is

87
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: absolutely painful for a lot of They are losing real

88
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 2: money as we speak. But he's claiming his plan is

89
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 2: going to pay off later. It might take us years

90
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: to see the results. However, we'll continue here on this

91
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 2: Friday morning. We turn now to this deadly and destructive

92
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: weather system. It continues to impact millions of Americans. It's

93
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: called a once in a generation storm. It's living up

94
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 2: to the name. Seven people have been confirmed killed from

95
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: the system that is sweeping across the country. It's going

96
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: to continue to recavoc into the weekend.

97
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: That's right, Five people died in Tennessee, one in Indiana

98
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: and another in Missouri. Thirteen others have been injured, but

99
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: local officials say, especially the ones in Tennessee say, those numbers, unfortunately,

100
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: are likely to climb even higher.

101
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 2: And so far we got to count of at least

102
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: thirty tornadoes in the South and Midwest. Rescuers have been

103
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 2: searching through rubble after several strong tornadoes demolished homes and buildings. Really,

104
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 2: this is one of those cases where we see neighborhoods

105
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 2: just wiped out.

106
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, the tornado threat unfortunately continues now today into the

107
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: weekend as the storm is moving eastward. But behind the

108
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: tornado threat is another danger heavy rain and the potential

109
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: for catastrophic flooding. Forecasters say another ten to fifteen inches

110
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: of rain could fall through Saturday night on areas that

111
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: have already been impacted, and that flooding risk will then

112
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: continue into next week. We said this yesterday on the podcast,

113
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: but I've just seen the same type of dire warnings

114
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: out there by meteorologists and weather forecasters saying people, please

115
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 1: pay attention to your local radar, to your local weather

116
00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: reports because this is potentially deadly and detructive and just

117
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: everyone needs to be on alert.

118
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 2: We have really appreciated our local weather folks here. We

119
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 2: have watched more local news specifically because weather in the

120
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: past several days. That's true, because of this system. We

121
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,359
Speaker 2: continue here on this Friday morning run and Prince Harry

122
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 2: has finally spoken days after being accused of bullying, harassment

123
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 2: and sexism by the chairwoman of Senta Bale, the charity

124
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 2: that Prince Harry co founded in honor of his late mother.

125
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 2: Princess Diana.

126
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: So after news at Senta Balia is now being investigated

127
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: by Britain's Charity Commission. That's a watchdog group that regulates

128
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: charities in England and Wales. Well, Prince Harry said he

129
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: was relieved. He wrote this on behalf of the former

130
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: trustees and patrons. We share in the relief that the

131
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: Charity Commission confirmed they will be conducting a robust inquiry.

132
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: We fully expect it will unveil the truth that collectively

133
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: forced us to resign.

134
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, forced two. He stepped down from the organization along

135
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: with its co founder and five other trustees after an

136
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 2: internal conflict with the chairwoman, Sophie Shandoka. Now she has

137
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: spent the last several days making multiple allegations against the

138
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 2: trustees and Prince Harry, including that she was the target

139
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: of the publicity machine of Megan Markel and Prince Hareic Woof.

140
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: And so Prince Harry and other members of the trustees

141
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: released a statement saying what has transpired over the last

142
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: week has been heartbreaking to witness, especially when such blatant

143
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: lies hurt those who have invested decades in this shared goal.

144
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 2: What is that goal?

145
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: The mission of this charity actually began in two thousand

146
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: and six to honor Princess Diana to raise money to

147
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: help victims of the HIV pandemic in Lesotho. It's expanded

148
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: to Botswana. It includes aid to people affected by substance

149
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: abuse and gender based violence. This is a charity that's

150
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: doing very important work.

151
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 2: Well, it's been around, like, yeah, twenty years. The honor

152
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 2: did this was an honor of his mother. I just

153
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: hate to see it going down like this right now.

154
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 2: But the investigation is going to look into whether the

155
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 2: charity's current and former trustees, including its chair have fulfilled

156
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 2: their duties and responsibilities under charity law. Now. The chairwoman

157
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 2: says she also welcomes the inquiry, saying she hoped it

158
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 2: would bring comfort to the people they serve that the

159
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 2: new board of trustees are acting appropriately.

160
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: There is certainly more to come on that story, all right.

161
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: Next up on our run, the Trump administration is putting

162
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,239
Speaker 1: schools across the country on notice ditch DEI or lose

163
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: your federal funding, and a letter sent to states, the

164
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: White House threatens to withhold the billions in federal state

165
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: education grantsate controls unless states promise they are adhering to

166
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: Trump's directives, the diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

167
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 2: Yes, that they need to be going away.

168
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

169
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 2: The letter he said to all the states has right

170
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: at the top. It says, this reminder of legal obligations

171
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 2: undertaken in exchange for receiving federal financial assistance. That's the

172
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 2: nice way of saying you have been warned that. The

173
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: letters to the states include a form to be filled

174
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 2: out that certifies that they are not using any DEI policies.

175
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: And there is a timeline attached to this. States have

176
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: just ten days to respond. You may remember Trump signed

177
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: that executive order not long after taking office eliminating DEI

178
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: programs from the federal government.

179
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: And as a reminder here, the federal government hands out

180
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 2: some eighteen billion dollars in the federal grants tied to

181
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 2: Title one money. We hear that all the time, but

182
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 2: this money is mainly set aside for lower income schools. Also,

183
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 2: this get hurt. I don't know how you prove they're

184
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: essentially signing an Affidavid saying I promise I'm not doing

185
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 2: any DEI. How do you investigate everybody? But the threat

186
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 2: of losing that kind of money is catastrophic. It could

187
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: be for a lot of places. We'll continue here on

188
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 2: this Friday morning run doctor Oz now officially the head

189
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 2: of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Senace It

190
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: the Senate excuse Me confirmed memet Oz along party lines

191
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 2: fifty three to forty five, despite some intense questioning by

192
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 2: Democrats in the Senate Finance condec.

193
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: Most notably, doctor Oz would not say whether he supported

194
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: the proposed GOP to Medicaid that has been making many headlines,

195
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: but instead he said this to senators, Let's be aggressive

196
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: in modernizing our tools to reduce fraud, waste, and abuse.

197
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: This will stop unscrupleous people from stealing vulnerable Americans and

198
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: extend the life of the Medicare Trust Fund. So the

199
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: agency doctor Oz now runs provides coverage for seventy nine

200
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: million people on Medicaid sixty eight million people on Medicare.

201
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: It remains to be seen what he will do with

202
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 1: those cuts.

203
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: All right, folk, stay with us here on this Friday morning.

204
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 2: Ron When we come back, we're gonna wrap it up

205
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 2: with our last few legs of running for the week,

206
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: including this story. The President called him a coward. The

207
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 2: Kennedys call him courageous. Also, what is with the beef

208
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:52,559
Speaker 2: between two Disney princesses. Yes, Rapunzel is mad at snow White.

209
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 2: Also Tom Cruise with some sweet words were his former

210
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 2: on screen adversary Falclm. All right, we will continue here

211
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 2: on our Friday morning run with this. The crowd wanted

212
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: to hang him. The President called him a coward. Mike

213
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 2: Pence is now being called courageous and being honored for

214
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 2: what he did on that infamous January sixth day. Pence

215
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: will receive the John F. Kennedy Profile Encourage Awards specifically

216
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 2: for his refusal to do what Trump wanted him to do,

217
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 2: not certify the twenty twenty election results, something of course,

218
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 2: he was constitutionally obligated to do so.

219
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: The JFK Library Foundation, in making the announcement, said, Pence

220
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: put his life and career on the line to ensure

221
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: the constitutional transfer of presidential power on January sixth, twenty

222
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: twenty one. You'll remember, yes, Trump pressured Pence to hold

223
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: up certification, claiming there was voting fraud in some states.

224
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 2: So while the mob was assaulting the Capitol, Pence was

225
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 2: literally on the run and in hiding inside that building,

226
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 2: refused even the Secret Service recommendation that he leave the building.

227
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 2: So now he's getting this award. It's going to happen

228
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 2: in a ceremony that's going to be May fourth. That's

229
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: a Sunday in Boston. I don't know why I added that.

230
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 2: I just happened to know.

231
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: That's a it's a Sunday, all right, May the fourth

232
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: be with you. The Kennedy Foundation wrote that Pence's decision

233
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: is an example of President Kennedy's belief that an act

234
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: of political courage can change the course of history. And

235
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: this is a ward that's been given out since nineteen

236
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: eighty nine, recognized many public officials, including President Obama, first

237
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: President Bush, Gabby Gifford's, Mitt Romney, Nancy Pelosi. So Mike

238
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: Pence will be added to a very esteemed list of

239
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: public services.

240
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 2: Looking forward to his speech, wonder what he's going to

241
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: say in the midst of that. You got Trump back

242
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 2: in the White House, and now he is being honored

243
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 2: for doing his duty, which is something. Doing his duty

244
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 2: is what Trump called him a coward for. So I'm

245
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 2: interesting to hear. We're kind of speeches.

246
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: You can't wait to hear that speach?

247
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 2: All right? Well, next up here on the wrong O,

248
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 2: why might be messing things up for Rapunzel. Disney is

249
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: reportedly having second thoughts about doing a live action version

250
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 2: of its twenty ten animated hit and Robot's Favorite Tangled.

251
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: Absolute favorite Disney movie ever. Love the movie, love the

252
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: music now.

253
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:18,719
Speaker 2: According to Ward to this.

254
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 1: I was yes. According to multiple media reports, Disney has

255
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: now paused development of the movie, which already had a

256
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: director and a writer attached to the project. And the

257
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: news comes yes after a less than stellar critical and

258
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: commercial reception for snow White. That's a very kind way

259
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: to put it.

260
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't know for sure these two things are connected,

261
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 2: but yes, the live action version of snow White was

262
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 2: released two weeks ago. You've been hearing plenty about it,

263
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 2: all the controversy I has been plagued, and that it

264
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 2: opened to a disappointing forty five million dollars in the US,

265
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: made a total of almost one hundred and fifty million

266
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 2: dollars worldwide. That ain't good against an estimated budget of

267
00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty plus million dollars before all the

268
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: the advertising and promotional cost. So this is you got

269
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 2: numbers out there in estimates, this is going to be

270
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 2: a nine a pretty significant nine figure loss. It is.

271
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: They're in the red significantly. So it's unclear, yes, if

272
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: Disney is simply rethinking the direction of a live action

273
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: Tangled or if it's ditching the project altogether. Disney does

274
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: have a live action Lee, Lo and Stitch coming out

275
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: next month. A live action Moana is scheduled for a

276
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six release. And by the way, just Isn't

277
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: just Me Who Love Tangled? The animated Tangled film made

278
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: six hundred million dollars at the box office and gave

279
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: us the Oscar nominated song it should have won. I

280
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: See the Light, which I play at nauseum that the

281
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: and at last I See the Light. No that you're

282
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: thinking of Hercules, Go the Distance.

283
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 2: Go the Distance, Yes, but Bolton does a version of

284
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 2: that one.

285
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: I love that one. But I See the Light.

286
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 2: Yes.

287
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: Zachary Levi, we just talked to him on the podcast.

288
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: He is there with Mandy Moore. They sing I See

289
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: the Light and it's a good one.

290
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: So been blaring some of these songs, and look, we

291
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: encourage you all to do. So whatever's going on in

292
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 2: your life, take a beat. Listen to a couple of

293
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 2: Disney song. I cannot believe you promoting this, but listen

294
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: to a couple of Disney songs. They really got us going.

295
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: This one.

296
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: It's moodlifting.

297
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 2: It absolutely is that a final legt of our Friday

298
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: run now, and Tom Cruise had some sweet words for

299
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 2: his friend and Top Gun co star Val Kilmer. Cruz

300
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 2: was in Vegas yesterday for a previously scheduled appearance at

301
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 2: CinemaCon As, an annual convention of movie theater owners.

302
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: He was there to promote the upcoming installment of Mission Impossible,

303
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: but before he got into his remarks about the movie,

304
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: he asked for a moment of silence for Kilmer, who

305
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: died Tuesday at the age of sixty five.

306
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 2: And then Tom Cruise said this quote, I'd like to

307
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 2: honor a dear friend of mine, Val Kilmer. I can't

308
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 2: tell you how much I admire his work, how grateful

309
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 2: and honored I was when he joined Top Gun and

310
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 2: came back later for Top Gun Maverick. He loved movies

311
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 2: and he gave a lot to all of us. Just

312
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 2: kind of think about all the wonderful times that we

313
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 2: had with him, And then He closed by saying, I

314
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,880
