1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ an iHeartRadio podcast. Good

2
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: morning everyone, and welcome to Morning Run. It's Friday, December twentieth.

3
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 2: I'm a ne robot and I'm TJ. Holmes and on

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 2: the run this morning. Our government is going to shut

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 2: down tonight. Unless Congress does its job.

6
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 3: We will not hold our breath.

7
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: Plus, it was an eventful day for suspected healthcare CEO

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: killer Luigi Mangioni. He started the day in a courtroom

9
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia and ended up in a New York prison

10
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 1: with Diddy.

11
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 2: Also this morning, case closed. The prosecutor going after Trump

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 2: in Georgia has been kicked off the case.

13
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: Now what And the government has now banned drones in

14
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: certain places and warned they will intercept or use deadly force.

15
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: And in the next breath says this, there's nothing to

16
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: worry about in the ongoing mystery in disguise.

17
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 4: Over New Jersey.

18
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: Also the lines of your local Starbucks Today, a picket

19
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 2: lines thousands of Barisa's start a strike that's expected to

20
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: go coast to coast.

21
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: And Lebron James sets another impressive all time NBA record.

22
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: His teammates say it just means he's old.

23
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: And this morning, all I want for Christmas is the

24
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: winning Mega Millions ticket, eight hundred and twenty five million

25
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: dollars up for grabs tonight. Somebody is about to have

26
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: the merriest fricking Christmas.

27
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 3: Ever.

28
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: It's of good luck to you all out there. We'll

29
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: get into that. It's good to have a little hope around.

30
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: The holidays, isn't it, though, Yes, I plan to pick

31
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: up a couple tickets of hope today.

32
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 4: All Right, we begin our run though in Washington.

33
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 1: Where hope might be lost, And this phrase comes to mind,

34
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: Not so fast. President elect Trump went on social media

35
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: to declare success on a new plan to fund the

36
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: government and lift the dead ceiling, but it turned out

37
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: to be a colossal failure.

38
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, because just because Trump liked the bill doesn't mean

39
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: everybody else he did. Congress didn't like it resoundingly rejected

40
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: his latest attempt by Republican leaders to temporarily keep the

41
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: government running. The vote this was not a nail bier.

42
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: It fell far short of the two thirds it.

43
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 3: Needed to pass.

44
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: The latest vote came after Republican leaders renigged on an

45
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: earlier bipartisan version. Once Trump and Elon Musk urged members

46
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: to vote against it. Despite the President's endorsement of this

47
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: latest bill, Democratic leaders had not signed off on it

48
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: before its release. So in the end, thirty eight Republicans

49
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: voted against it and only two Democrats voted for it.

50
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: And maybe this was a sign that things weren't going

51
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 2: to go well. But in a closed door meeting of

52
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 2: House Democrats before the vote, lawmakers reportedly could be heard chanting.

53
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: Hell no, hell no again.

54
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 4: Not subtle.

55
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 3: Not a good sign.

56
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: So no clear plan for Congress now to avoid a

57
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 2: government shut down Again, folks, as this is being recorded,

58
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: as we're speaking to you here midnight tonight, we are

59
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: a matter of hours away from the government shutting down.

60
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 2: House Speaker Mike Johnson. If you don't know who he is,

61
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 2: just turn on the TV and he's the guy that

62
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 2: looks defeated in all the news coverage. Way he was

63
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 2: leaving late last night, was asked whether there would be

64
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: another funding bill proposed today.

65
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 3: His answer, he just kind of slumped and just said,

66
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 3: we'll see.

67
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,399
Speaker 1: He just looks beat down as just as we said,

68
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: hope is. It seems like it's lost right now. Now.

69
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: This latest plan that got shot down would have kept

70
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: the government running for three more months.

71
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 4: It provided disaster relief for Hurricane had States.

72
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: It was certainly a slim down version from the one

73
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: that was the bipartisan deal, but it would allow more

74
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: borrowing through January thirtieth of twenty twenty seven. That borrowing

75
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: effectively would have raised the dead limit, and earlier in

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: the day yesterday, we heard Trump calling for the abolishment

77
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: of it altogether.

78
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: He said it would be, in his words, the smartest

79
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 2: thing Congress could do, saying he would support that entirely,

80
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: calling the dead limit a meaningless concept for all of

81
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: us dealing with it. You hear dead limit limit limit?

82
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:01,839
Speaker 3: What this does?

83
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 2: It just gives the country the ability to continue to

84
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 2: borrow money and pay its bills. Imagine your own credit

85
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 2: card bill right your limit is ten thousand. If they

86
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: raise your limit to fifteen thousand, you're probably going to

87
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: spend that extra five thousand. That's what some in Congress

88
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 2: don't want us to do. We use it like a

89
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: credit card, So if you raise the limit, you're just

90
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 2: going to keep meeting the limit and spending money we

91
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: don't have.

92
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 3: That's what they're fighting on.

93
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: Yes, So good luck guys and gals in the halls

94
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: of Congress today. We'll see what happens, all right. Our

95
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: run continues here in New York City, where alleged United

96
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: Healthcare CEO killer Luigi Mangioni is waking up in the

97
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: Big Apple after waiving extradition and flying from Pennsylvania to

98
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: New York to face charges, including new federal charges.

99
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Fed.

100
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 2: They're charging him with two counts of stalking, murder through

101
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: use of a firearm, and a firearms offence. This is

102
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: now in addition to the eleven count indictment handed up

103
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: by a New York grand jury earlier this week in

104
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 2: connection with the shooting of Brian Thompson in front of

105
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 2: a midtown Manhattan hotel earlier this month that includes now

106
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: as well a first degree murder charge.

107
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: Mangioni's attorney had this to say about the new federal

108
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: charges against her client. She said, the federal government's reported

109
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: decision to pile on top of an already overcharged first

110
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: degree murder and state terror case is highly unusual and

111
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: raises serious constitutional and statutory double jeopardy concerns. Now, when

112
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: yesterday's hearing, federal prosecutors asked that Mangioni remain detained. The

113
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: judge agreed, setting Mangioni's next court date for January eighteenth.

114
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: Then you pointed out you wrote this and I didn't

115
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: even realize that, Yes, Mangioni and Sean ditty Combs are

116
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: now housed in the same facility together.

117
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 2: We talk about that, or much as talked about in

118
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 2: the Ditty case of how this is a notorious prison.

119
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: It's the only federal prison in New York, so they

120
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 2: have to send these folks there.

121
00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 3: So some of the big name.

122
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: Folks have all ended up up there, and it's wild

123
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 2: to think these two high profile cases, those guys are

124
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 2: being housed in the same spot.

125
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: And with those new federal charges, we should mention. Details

126
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: were released. More details from Mangioni's alleged manifesto, his writings

127
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: that they found on him when they arrested him, and

128
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: he specifically wrote that he was targeting the healthcare industry

129
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: because it quote checked every box.

130
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 4: He also in terms of premeditation.

131
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: Some of his writings from August were talking about his

132
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: details finally coming together, that he's glad that he procrastinated

133
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: because it allowed him to learn more about the company.

134
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: And then he also said that at the end he

135
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: describes his intent to quote whack end quote the CEO

136
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: of one of the insurance companies at its investor conference.

137
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: So these are very damning statements, reportedly written in his

138
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: own by his own hands.

139
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 4: So this will be a case.

140
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: And we still hear from his attorney saying he plans

141
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: to plead not guilty to all of the charges he

142
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: is now facing.

143
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: All right, we will continue this Friday morning run now

144
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 2: and head down to Georgia where Donald Trump is still

145
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: facing state criminal charges for trying to overturn the results

146
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 2: of the twenty twenty election there in Georgia. But that

147
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 2: stalled case is now in further peril because the prosecutor

148
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 2: has been disqualified kicked off the case.

149
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: Yes, Fanny Willis has been under scrutiny, and Trump has

150
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: asked a judge to remove her. He had asked them

151
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: to remove her from the case after it was revealed

152
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: she had a romantic relationship with a special prosecutor that

153
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: she brought on to help prosecute Trump. While an appellate

154
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: court ruled there was a significant appearance of impropriety and

155
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: in its words said this this is the rare case

156
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: in which disqualification is mandated, and no other remedy will

157
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: suffice to restore public confidence in the integrity of these

158
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: proceedings out.

159
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, will there be any more proceedings is the question now,

160
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 2: because Willis is expected to appeal this court's decision to

161
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 2: kick her off and try to stay on the case.

162
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 2: If she doesn't stay on the case, then a new

163
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: special prosecutor will have to be named. That's a process

164
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 2: that takes a while. And then once they get named,

165
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 2: this is a huge complicated case they're going to have

166
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: to get caught up on.

167
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 3: So we don't know if it'll get that for it all.

168
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it might not get that far because Trump has

169
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: other challenges to the Georgia case, which are based on

170
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: his immunity as president and based on the fact that

171
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: he just won re election. So in response to Willis

172
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: being disqualified, the President's team put out statements saying this

173
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: puts an end to a politically motivated persecution of Trump.

174
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: So to be continued on the Georgia case.

175
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: All right, we will continue again on this Friday morning run.

176
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: Drones are now banned can't fly him at dozens of

177
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: sites in New Jersey and New York. This all now

178
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: an attempt by the FAA to reassure the public and

179
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: calm the frenzy over those unexplained drone sightings that have

180
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 2: been happening for weeks.

181
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: The FAA issued what they call TFRs, which are temporary

182
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: flight restrictions over critical infrastructure and utility sites, which means

183
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: unmanned aircraft are not allowed to fly in those areas.

184
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: The government notices say violators could be intercepted, interviewed, and

185
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: detained by authorities, and also warned that deadly force could

186
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: be used if the drones are deemed a security risk.

187
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: The FAA says this is being done out of an

188
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: abundance of caution and not because of any threat.

189
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 2: Okay, the flight restrictions are in placed until mid January.

190
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: There have been thousands of reported sightings in recent weeks

191
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 2: with no real explanation for them, at least no explanation

192
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 2: that flies for the general public and certainly not for

193
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 2: conspiracy theorists out there who have been filling in a

194
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: lot of the blanks and roads. We've been talking about

195
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 2: this story here for a couple of weeks now keep

196
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: saying there's no real explanation or the FBI in the

197
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 2: conjunction with the FAA have come together. They put out

198
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 2: a statement. And see if that statement, if you can

199
00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: read that, I have there.

200
00:09:59,440 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 3: Why is it?

201
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: That statement not a good enough answer? This is officially

202
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 2: from the FBI.

203
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 4: Should we read it?

204
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: All right?

205
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 4: We'll let everyone weigh in on this.

206
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: Having closely examined the technical data and tips from concerned citizens,

207
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: we assess that the sightings to date include a combination

208
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: of lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones, and law enforcement drones,

209
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: as well as manned fixed wing aircraft, helicopters and stars

210
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: mistakenly reported as drones. We have not identified anything anomalous

211
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: and do not assess the activity to date to present

212
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: a national security or public safety risk over the civilian

213
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: airspace in New Jersey or other states in the northeast.

214
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: End quote. Here's the problem with this. If that's all true,

215
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 1: why restrict air space? Why actually put up violators? If

216
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: you call it may we may use deadly force.

217
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 4: Why do that?

218
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: Then? If that statement is true, why then the action

219
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: of restricting airspace that to me makes no sense.

220
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: Well, just as a precaution and maybe to calm and

221
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 2: maybe to okay, maybe not calm.

222
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 3: Make you feel better about your safety.

223
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: It actually makes me feel worse because if that statement

224
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: were true, there would be no need to do that

225
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: just to calm everybody.

226
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 2: Hey, we know you worked up there acknowledging that people

227
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: are worked up about it. We want to make you

228
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 2: feel better by at least presenting this that we're taking

229
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: some kind of action.

230
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: No, because it could because it completely flies in the

231
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: face of their statement.

232
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 4: So sorry, this action speak louder than worse.

233
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 2: This is why people, this is why we should be

234
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: on TV, because people needed to read your face. I

235
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: was trying to make that argument. All right, folks, stay

236
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 2: with us here on the Friday Morning run. When we

237
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 2: come back, your barista is on strike, Lebron is old,

238
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: and somebody is going to have a really merry Christmas

239
00:11:48,640 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 2: with that mega million ticket. All right, Well back, folks,

240
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 2: we will continue our Friday morning run now, and a

241
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 2: lot of y'all have coffee in hand, or you'll soon

242
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: have it in hand, or maybe you got the second

243
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: or third cup in hand this morning as you're listening

244
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 2: to us. Starbucks is a big deal, and it's annoying

245
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 2: when people send you to Starbucks to get something for them.

246
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 2: Because everybody has a complicated Starbucks order.

247
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 3: What is yours?

248
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: Well, my complicated one is a grande brevet cappuccino, which

249
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 1: isn't too complicated.

250
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 4: I also just take a black coffee.

251
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 2: I also feel ridiculous walking in there trying to order stuff. Hey,

252
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: what's your small again?

253
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 4: That's a tall? I get a grande? Is you got upset?

254
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: I think one time when I asked you to get

255
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: me a grande ice to breve cappuccino, You're.

256
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 4: Like, are you kidding me?

257
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: Right now?

258
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 4: I am not saying that.

259
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I might not have to go into a Starbucks.

260
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: It might not be able to go into a Starbucks

261
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 2: in certain places to place that order for you coming up.

262
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 4: That's right.

263
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: This might be a good time to try Dunkin Donuts.

264
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 1: I hear people love their coffee. Or you could check

265
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: out PiZZ or Tim Horton's, or maybe even start brewing

266
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: and saving some at home. Because some of your Starbucks orders,

267
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,239
Speaker 1: they're going to be on hold until further notice.

268
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 2: Because your barista is on strike. Thousands of Starbucks workers

269
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: are scheduled to start walking off the job today in

270
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 2: a dispute with the company over of course pay and

271
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 2: also work conditions. Now this is happening this morning in

272
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 2: critical coffee markets Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle. Seattle is

273
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: important because that is where the company is headquartered.

274
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: The union says this will be a five day escalating

275
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: strike that will spread to hundreds of stores right up

276
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: until Christmas Eve. This is of course, one of the

277
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: busiest stretches for Starbucks. Starbucks says it's ready to continue

278
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: negotiations with the union, but needs the union.

279
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 4: To return to the table.

280
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: And yes, they're fighting over how much money they're making,

281
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: their benefits. There's work schedules, all of these things, and

282
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: so unfortunately you should be prepared, especially if you live

283
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: in one of those cities, that you might be waiting

284
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: in a much longer line than usual.

285
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: What they say it is going to go coast to coast,

286
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: and that they will actually it's going to expand it's

287
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 2: going to be wider and wider as the days go by. Amazon,

288
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 2: the drivers are on strike, and now you have Starbucks.

289
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 2: Those a huge brands that depend on the holidays, and

290
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 2: now it's putting some pressure, I guess on the companies

291
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 2: to say, hey, this is Christmas and your customers are

292
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 2: upset with you or annoyed with you. I'm sure that's

293
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: by design.

294
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 4: Yes, Oh, of course it is.

295
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: And we'll see if that pressure works in terms of

296
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: returning to that negotiating table.

297
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 2: All right, next up on the run here now, anytime

298
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 2: a player passes Kareem Abdul Jabar in any measure, it's

299
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 2: worth a mention. So we're going to give Lebron his

300
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: love right now. Last night he broke Kareem's record for

301
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 2: total minutes played in the NBA fifty seven thousand, four

302
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy one actual minutes Lebron has been on

303
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 2: the court playing basketball.

304
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: So bottom line, Lebron has spent more time on the

305
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: court than any player ever. This is certainly a testament

306
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: to his longevity, his work ethic, his health.

307
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 4: His nutrition, on and on and on.

308
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: He's already passed Kareem for the most points scored in

309
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: NBA history, and at thirty nine, he is the oldest

310
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: player in the NBA right now and has been in

311
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: the league for an astonishing twenty two years.

312
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: And as his coaches and others were giving him love

313
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 2: around the league, he said his teammates did what teammates do,

314
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 2: and they would give him a hard time. He just

315
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 2: said he's a old man. I mean, this just means

316
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 2: you're old. He's the old guy thirty nine. But he's

317
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 2: still playing really, really well. It's not just a matter

318
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: of him in the league. He's playing well as a

319
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 2: top player. This is it's cool to watch it.

320
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love to come to old man. Hey, yeah,

321
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 4: you go for you say it. It's funny, you know.

322
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 2: He was asked about it and asked about the next

323
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 2: games coming up, and this was his exact quote. I

324
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 2: just set the all time leading mark in minutes. I

325
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 2: am not thinking about the next game yet. I'm about

326
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: to go to this hotel room, drink some wine, play

327
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 2: some Madden, and.

328
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 3: Chill the f out.

329
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 4: Let's play some Madden.

330
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 3: Oh he's a PlayStation oh NFL.

331
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't know what that was.

332
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 3: Well, it was better that I read that one.

333
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: That's how he unwines all right, Next up on the run, Well, actually,

334
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: this is the final luck of our run, is it not.

335
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: We are going to end with a big bang, eight

336
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five million dollars up for grabs in

337
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: tonight's Mega Millions drawing, and all you gotta.

338
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 4: Do is guess six numbers correctly. How hard can that be.

339
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: This is the seventh largest jackpot in the game's history.

340
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 2: So let me give you your options if you win.

341
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 2: It's always funny when we do this, like anybody listening is.

342
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 3: Actually going to be one of the winners.

343
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 4: Fun to think about what you would do.

344
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: It's fun to think about. So here are your options.

345
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 2: Eight hundred and twenty five million. You can choose that

346
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: that total, but it's going to be paid out as

347
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: an annuity over the next thirty years. Some financial advisors

348
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 2: would tell you that's the way to go, but ain't

349
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 2: know why. It got time for that. So you can

350
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 2: take the upfront cash option, which means they'll give it

351
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 2: to you today. That would be three hundred and eighty

352
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 2: two million dollars in a lump sum.

353
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 3: But of course robes we know a lot is going

354
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 3: to get taken.

355
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 4: Out of that, about half of it, if not more,

356
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 4: depending on where you live.

357
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: Immediately twenty five percent is taken out by the government.

358
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 2: Then you have to pay the rest of that during

359
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: tax time, which is going to end up being thirty

360
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 2: seven percent total depending on your state.

361
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 3: Yes, that's the other problem. Yeah, but man, if you

362
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 3: live in.

363
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: Texas, Florida, Tennessee, Florida, Arizona. Wow, how do I know

364
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: all of the states that don't have state taxes?

365
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 3: We have all at some point may had this conversation.

366
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 4: The older you get, the more you think about it.

367
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 1: When you got to take out those four oh one

368
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,479
Speaker 1: case and all that stuff. Yep, that's why my grandpa

369
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 1: moved to Kentucky and then Florida. Both of those have

370
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: zero state taxes. He also got a teaching job there

371
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: at a university. So yes, but he did strategically pick

372
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: a state that was free of state taxes.

373
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:43,479
Speaker 3: Uh.

374
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: Yes, So we have to be in it to win it.

375
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 1: Though I knew I forgot to do something yesterday. Remember

376
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,919
Speaker 1: I kept saying I needed to make another stop. I

377
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: needed to You know, you have all the lists to

378
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: check off lists when you're getting close to Christmas, and

379
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: I forgot to get the lottery ticket.

380
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 4: But there's still time. I love it.

381
00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 3: It'll get done.

382
00:17:59,080 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 4: It'll get done.

383
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: You think, all right, the odds of winning one in

384
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: three hundred and two million, Okay, that's something.

385
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: They increase the odds several years back for this point

386
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 2: to make it harder for the jackpots to get hit.

387
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 2: So they become bigger numbers. This is the only time

388
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 2: they start making money is when people start seeing these

389
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 2: big numbers. So people like us who don't normally buy tickets.

390
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: Most people don't normally buy, but now you see it's

391
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 2: eight and twenty five million, I'll go get a ticket.

392
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 2: So this is by design and that's why we have

393
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 2: these bigger jackpoties.

394
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, drawing is at eleven Eastern time tonight, so everybody

395
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: stay up to see if you won. In the meantime, though,

396
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: we'd like you to consider this, this will be our

397
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: quote of the day on this Friday.

398
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 3: Words are like keys.

399
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 2: If you choose them right, they can open any heart

400
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 2: and shut any mouth.

401
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 3: I love it. Not sure where I got this? Was this? Another?

402
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 4: This is from your files? Yes, where I get this stuff?

403
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: You always tell me when you don't know who said it,

404
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: it must be from your pastor that would make sense.

405
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 2: But imagine that a key something that some words are

406
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 2: like ease. If you pick the right one, if you

407
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 2: say the right thing to somebody, it can open up

408
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 2: their heart and change everything. And if you say the

409
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 2: wrong thing, you've got the wrong key. It can be

410
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 2: a disaster. But also the right key can shut somebody down.

411
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 2: You say the right word, it'll make them shut up.

412
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 2: There's nothing better than that. Victory is that you say

413
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 2: something they don't know what to say back to you.

414
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 4: That's like your favorite pastime.

415
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 3: Oh my god, it's fine.

416
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 4: Wait, but you got the key to my heart.

417
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: Remember you've been saying it repeatedly when things start to

418
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: go a little a miss or a ry.

419
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 3: We're gonna make it through this, and I love it.

420
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 3: And your heart and shut your mouth.

421
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 4: It does both of those things.

422
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 2: That's nothing, all right, Belt, that is going to do

423
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: it for I saw this Friday morning.

424
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,119
