Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast.
Speaker 2: Good morning everyone. It is Tuesday, February twenty fourth. I'm
Speaker 2: Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. And what a difference
Speaker 2: of day makes.
Speaker 1: Blizzard yesterday couldn't even see New Jersey look out the window,
Speaker 1: sun shine and glisten, And what a difference a day makes.
Speaker 1: We survived a blizzard. I guess you know what, New
Speaker 1: York for the most part.
Speaker 3: We absolutely survived a blizzard.
Speaker 2: And I do think that it's I always look to
Speaker 2: weather as just such a mirror into our lives.
Speaker 3: Right when you're in the middle of the storm, it
Speaker 3: all feels just like, you know, all hell is breaking loose.
Speaker 3: You don't know what's going to happen.
Speaker 2: There's fear, and then the next day you wake up
Speaker 2: and the sun is shining and everything is a new
Speaker 2: I do like to remember those moments that Mother Nature
Speaker 2: teaches us all the time, this too shall pass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but another one's coming tomorrow, telling us we will
Speaker 1: have another storm, not the same type of intensity, of course,
Speaker 1: I say it'll be quick, but more is coming. And
Speaker 1: some places, including Providence robes don't need more. Did you
Speaker 1: see anywhere that got more snow than Providence, Rhode Island.
Speaker 2: Rhode Island was the bullseye from what I saw. And
Speaker 2: you have your thirty eight inches in Providence.
Speaker 1: Don't even know what to do with that. It's taller
Speaker 1: than most preschoolers. Three feet of snow.
Speaker 3: That's you know what. That reminds me of Lake effect
Speaker 3: snow growing up.
Speaker 2: My parents both grew up on Lake Michigan, and there
Speaker 2: was one time where we had to climb out of
Speaker 2: a window to dig out the front door to leave.
Speaker 3: That's the kind of snow Rhode Island saw yesterday.
Speaker 1: I only heard about lake effects snow. I think maybe
Speaker 1: twelve so years ago. I grew up differently, But yes,
Speaker 1: Providence got a lot of places, got a lot. We
Speaker 1: can tell you that schools are back open in a
Speaker 1: lot of places. Traffic is being allowed in a bunch
Speaker 1: of places again. And some places New York included had
Speaker 1: travel bands. But then also robes the airlines, the airports.
Speaker 1: It's not great. I checked. I'm sure you did. This morning.
Speaker 1: We saw eighty ninety percent cancelations. It's still about fifty
Speaker 1: percent in some places up here. I think Boston as well.
Speaker 1: But it's better than yesterday.
Speaker 3: It's better than yesterday.
Speaker 2: See, that's where we are right now, and hopefully by
Speaker 2: tomorrow they'll get things straightened out.
Speaker 3: But there were thousand, what it was, ended up being close.
Speaker 2: To six thousand flight cancelations yesterday, and I think we're
Speaker 2: still in the thousands today as well.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so I hopefully won't be as bad. More
Speaker 1: delays instead of cancelations. I know, delays suck, but that's
Speaker 1: better than the cancelation. But things are getting back on track.
Speaker 1: It was fun, you know that I haven't seen. We
Speaker 1: should let you all know. At least in New York
Speaker 1: they're not reporting any deaths associated with this storm. Now.
Speaker 1: In other places we've been looking around, the reports aren't
Speaker 1: out there yet, but if they are, they're limited, and
Speaker 1: that's a good thing.
Speaker 2: Ro It's a good thing that folks heated the warnings
Speaker 2: stayed off the throat. That's why travel bands are so important.
Speaker 2: The inconvenience of not being able to order door dash
Speaker 2: or jumping an uber to visit a friend far out
Speaker 2: weigh the fact that, as far as we see right now,
Speaker 2: there were no jests. That is remarkable given the breadth
Speaker 2: and the width of this storm.
Speaker 1: You know, they say it a lot, they mention it,
Speaker 1: but it seemed like there was extra emphasis this time
Speaker 1: around on don't go out there shoveling. Yes, and that's
Speaker 1: how so many people die. But I noticed it more
Speaker 1: so this time around, so I too. Maybe there was
Speaker 1: a big push, but whatever, something might have worked. So
Speaker 1: wherever you are, I hope you are safe and made
Speaker 1: it through okay, And a lot of people are still
Speaker 1: digging out. But this morning on the Morning Run, we
Speaker 1: will be making stops in La DC, the UK, Ukraine,
Speaker 1: to Texas, to Park City, Utah, to London, to Mexico
Speaker 1: and to Vegas. We have to start with this story.
Speaker 1: Though my heart sank ropes as you know this. This
Speaker 1: was a part of my childhood. Actor Robert Carodine has
Speaker 1: died at the age of seventy one. Now Robert Carodine
Speaker 1: is a part of the Carrodine acting family, but he's
Speaker 1: the guy best known for his role in the screwball
Speaker 1: comedies in the eighties Revenge of the Nerds. I loved
Speaker 1: these movies as a kid. I think they made four
Speaker 1: or five of these, but he was the lead, the
Speaker 1: head of it. But dead at the age seventy one.
Speaker 1: Robes that is flat out young these days.
Speaker 2: It is incredibly heartbreaking too when the details of his death,
Speaker 2: which we'll get into, were revealed. But yeah, I had
Speaker 2: to admit I've seen the like the posters for Revenge
Speaker 2: of the Nerds, but for whatever reason, maybe I wasn't
Speaker 2: allowed to see it.
Speaker 3: Was it raunchy because.
Speaker 1: Their parents were very strict.
Speaker 3: Okay, that now it all makes sense.
Speaker 2: I was not allowed to watch a lot of these
Speaker 2: movies that people will attribute to their childhood because my
Speaker 2: parents said if there was cursing, if there was anything raunchy,
Speaker 2: I was not allowed to watch it.
Speaker 1: A lot of cursing, lot of potty humor. Well, I've
Speaker 1: never seen a ledge humor. Even one of his best
Speaker 1: boys name was Booga like and he was just gross.
Speaker 1: And it was just a lot of that stuff on
Speaker 1: in college campus.
Speaker 2: Yes, makes sense, So I would like to watch it
Speaker 2: now that I'm an adult with you. In homage to Grotine,
Speaker 2: because yeah, I have never seen a film for people
Speaker 2: who are a little bit younger. You may know him
Speaker 2: from the dad on the Disney original series Lizzie McGuire,
Speaker 2: which starred Hillary Duff. According to Deadline, Robert Carrodine took
Speaker 2: his own life, and his family wanted to acknowledge his
Speaker 2: struggles in their public statement announcing his passing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the statement says, quote, we want to acknowledge Bobby's
Speaker 1: valiant struggle against his nearly two decade battle with bipolar disorder.
Speaker 1: We hope his journey can shine a light and encourage
Speaker 1: addressing the stigma that's attached to mental illness. We want
Speaker 1: people to know it and there is no shame in it.
Speaker 1: It is an illness that got the best of him,
Speaker 1: and I want to celebrate him for his struggle with
Speaker 1: it and celebrate his beautiful soul. There is no shame
Speaker 1: in it. That it was important for them to mention
Speaker 1: that with seventy one. My goodness, I didn't realize and
Speaker 1: I had no idea that he was dealing with pie
Speaker 1: bipolar disorder. Don't know if he was public about.
Speaker 2: That, But by honoring his legacy with that, I think
Speaker 2: it's a pretty cool way to honor his passing in
Speaker 2: the hopes of helping others by creating that thing that
Speaker 2: we've heard so much about that there is no shame
Speaker 2: in mental illness. So I applaud his family for their statement.
Speaker 2: All right, Next up on the Run, The State of
Speaker 2: the Union is happening tonight at nine o'clock Eastern, and
Speaker 2: hope y'all got your sleep. Because Trump is known for
Speaker 2: his long as in really long speeches.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, he's known for the long speeches, but robes
Speaker 1: he's not. I'm not used to him foreshadowing how long
Speaker 1: the speech is going to be. The President himself even
Speaker 1: said this is going to be a long speech. You
Speaker 1: need to get settled because quote is going to be
Speaker 1: a long speech because I have a lot to talk about.
Speaker 1: See you tonight.
Speaker 3: I know you're ready. I got the popcorn pot.
Speaker 1: But that the other part of this is now is
Speaker 1: become theater. You're waiting to see what member of Carrie's
Speaker 1: going to jump up and yell something at the president.
Speaker 1: What is going to be happening behind him, the people
Speaker 1: sitting around, Well, no, he has Republicans behind him.
Speaker 3: But it is fun to watch them.
Speaker 1: It's always funny.
Speaker 2: They're constantly scrutinized the entire time, especially if it's a
Speaker 2: long speech.
Speaker 3: We'll be looking to see if anyone snoozes.
Speaker 2: All right, next up on the run, you know who
Speaker 2: won't be in attendance.
Speaker 3: The US Women's Gold medal winning hockey team.
Speaker 2: They were invited to attend the President's State of the
Speaker 2: Union addressed tonight, but turns out they'd rather Netflix and chill.
Speaker 3: We're kidding.
Speaker 2: They didn't say that. They did turn down the invitation. However,
Speaker 2: they did it in the politest of ways. This should
Speaker 2: be studied this response.
Speaker 1: I would love the backstory on who was sitting around
Speaker 1: at table and had to approve every single word of this,
Speaker 1: But they put it this way. We are sincerely grateful
Speaker 1: for the invitation extended to our goal medal winning US
Speaker 1: women's hockey team and deeply appreciate the recognition of their
Speaker 1: extraordinary achievement. Due to the timing and previously scheduled academic
Speaker 1: and professional commitments following the games, the athletes are unable
Speaker 1: to participate. They were honored to be included and are
Speaker 1: grateful for the acknowledgment. In other words, we busy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And there's a little bit of a backstory to
Speaker 2: this too, because President Trump called and invited the men's
Speaker 2: gold winning team as well, and notably, I think he
Speaker 2: was on Air Force one. He said to them, you know,
Speaker 2: this means we're going to have to invite the women too,
Speaker 2: So it was taken as a slight Some people feel
Speaker 2: like perhaps the thought and the refusal to accept the
Speaker 2: invitation might have been in response to that. They felt
Speaker 2: like it was a fairly demeaning boys club kind of response.
Speaker 2: But we don't know if we don't know if the
Speaker 2: men's team is going to be in attend that we're.
Speaker 1: Invited as well. That not an official word on that
Speaker 1: as of this recording. But what do you do? I
Speaker 1: take him out their word. They are all over the
Speaker 1: place now that they have just one there and again, yeah,
Speaker 1: some are students, some are this, some of that. But man,
Speaker 1: it seems weird if Obama.
Speaker 2: Would have called yeah, I mean I believe they got
Speaker 2: another game Thursday or something that they were pointing to.
Speaker 1: So the President invites you, you show up, don't you
Speaker 1: most of the time? All right, Well, continuing here on Baberon,
Speaker 1: now we head over to the UK actually where there
Speaker 1: are more developments and having to do with Jeffrey Epstein
Speaker 1: has been dead for how long I keep asking? Twenty nineteen, okay,
Speaker 1: and he is still having an incredible impact on business
Speaker 1: and world politics. This time the former British ambassador to
Speaker 1: the US. Well, he's out of jail this morning because
Speaker 1: he was in jail for a while yesterday after his arrest.
Speaker 1: This is Peter Mandelsson. He was rested on suspicion of
Speaker 1: misconduct in public office. Recent Epstein file revelations suggests he
Speaker 1: might have shared sensitive information with Epstein.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of did a deep dive reading these
Speaker 2: emails he was sending. It definitely appears like he was
Speaker 2: sharing sensitive financial information with Jeffrey Epstein. And this all
Speaker 2: comes you may remember just a week after former Prince
Speaker 2: Andrew was arrested for the exact same accusation, which was
Speaker 2: of course sharing that sensitive information misconduct in public office.
Speaker 2: Obviously we know that Prince Andrew or he's sorry, Former
Speaker 2: Prince Andrew just rolls off the tongue sometimes was released,
Speaker 2: but he is still considered under investigation.
Speaker 3: Next up on the Run.
Speaker 2: Continuing the fallout from Jeffrey Epstein, Peter Attia has now
Speaker 2: resigned from his new position as medical contributor to CBS News.
Speaker 2: He also faced criticism for his relationship with Epstein, which
Speaker 2: came to further light in that recent Epstein file dump.
Speaker 2: A lot of people went out with that last time.
Speaker 1: And it's not over probably, but the Spokesporson for Atia
Speaker 1: said the decision was made to ensure his involvement didn't
Speaker 1: become a distraction. He was one of this new crop
Speaker 1: that Barry Weis's a new head of CBS News over there,
Speaker 1: trying to bring in influencers, bring in folks who have
Speaker 1: big social media followings, and he was a social media
Speaker 1: influencer and medical star brought him in. He's gone already
Speaker 1: before even got started.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 2: Next up on the Run, the President of Mexico swears
Speaker 2: things are calming down, getting back to normal after that
Speaker 2: wave of violence following the killing of cartel boss Elmentcho
Speaker 2: on Sunday. Authority say gang members paralyzed part of the country,
Speaker 2: including Port of Arta, with attacks and block streaks with
Speaker 2: burned out vehicles.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dozens have been killed since that military operation on Sunday.
Speaker 1: It prompted the US government to till Americans there to
Speaker 1: shelter in place again. The state where this was happening, Jalisco,
Speaker 1: a large one that includes Port of Ararta, a very
Speaker 1: popular vacation spot, and it's so popular it just so
Speaker 1: happens that even in this house Ropes is kind of remarkable.
Speaker 1: We have people there right now. We're getting calls about
Speaker 1: including your daughter and your cousins. Friends.
Speaker 2: We have friends who were all there at Port of
Speaker 2: Iyarda and we were just there a week earlier. I mean,
Speaker 2: we missed this violence by days. And look, it was
Speaker 2: just unthinkable. Yes we know it's Mexico, Yes we know
Speaker 2: some of the unrest there, but still I have never
Speaker 2: felt unsafe there, and it's just it was. It was
Speaker 2: very surreal to see the smoke and hearing reports from
Speaker 2: friends of friends saying that they were stuck in their
Speaker 2: hotel rooms.
Speaker 3: They didn't know what.
Speaker 2: To do, they couldn't get out, they were afraid to
Speaker 2: leave their room, they couldn't get to the airport because
Speaker 2: of blockades. A lot of folks impacted by this, but
Speaker 2: apparently yes, it is improving all right. Next up on
Speaker 2: the run Ukrainians. Today marked the four year anniversary of
Speaker 2: the Russian invasion. It was on this day four years
Speaker 2: ago that Russia launched that full scaled attack. Five hundred
Speaker 2: thousand people have been killed and it looks like, yes,
Speaker 2: we are heading into the fifth year.
Speaker 1: We are now. It's incredible this has been going on.
Speaker 1: We are now officially today in the fifth year of
Speaker 1: this war I cannot believe. And there I don't know
Speaker 1: the latest we've seen. It's always a back and forth.
Speaker 1: They seem to be close and not close at all.
Speaker 1: And Trump is on this side a little more than this.
Speaker 1: Where are up in the air, my goodness? Continuing on
Speaker 1: the run here. Now, let's head back stateside and head
Speaker 1: to LA where thirty two year old Nick Reiner was
Speaker 1: arraigned yesterday and pled not guilty with the stabbing deaths
Speaker 1: of his parents, Rob and Michelle Reiner. That took place
Speaker 1: back on December fourteenth.
Speaker 2: Yes, and Monday's arraiement came after it was postponed back
Speaker 2: in January. You might remember his then prominent LA lawyer
Speaker 2: stepped down from the case. So Rhiner was repped by
Speaker 2: a public defender yesterday wearing a brown jumpsuit, and he
Speaker 2: only said one word yes when he was asked if
Speaker 2: he understood the proceedings.
Speaker 1: Now, the DA that I spoke to reporters after the
Speaker 1: hearing acknowledging his office is still considering pursuing the death penalty,
Speaker 1: said the case is death penalty eligible. Instead, along those lines,
Speaker 1: we take the process in which we determine whether or
Speaker 1: not to death penalty should be sought extremely seriously, go
Speaker 1: through a rigorous process. Are they still looking or they
Speaker 1: were considering the family?
Speaker 2: Yes, they have said that they are considering what the
Speaker 2: family's wishes are. But they said they're going to be
Speaker 2: looking also at all the aggravating and mitigating circumstances. They
Speaker 2: say the defense will be able to present to them
Speaker 2: either in a meeting orally or in writing about what
Speaker 2: they would like prosecutors to consider. So yeah, it's all
Speaker 2: up in the air, but everything is on the table.
Speaker 2: Reiner's next appearance in court is set for April twenty ninth.
Speaker 1: Continue on the run here now we head to Texas,
Speaker 1: where Congressman Tony Gonzalez is facing fresh criticism and calls
Speaker 1: for his resignation. Republican has been denying reports for months
Speaker 1: now that he had an affair with a married staffer
Speaker 1: who later died by suicide. This young lady set herself on.
Speaker 2: Fire, and that claim was bolstered last week when a
Speaker 2: text message was released from Regina Santos Avalas.
Speaker 3: She sent this text to.
Speaker 2: A coworker and it said I had an affair with
Speaker 2: our boss. Well, now new texts have come to light,
Speaker 2: and these are from the congressman to the staffer, in
Speaker 2: which he is asking her for sexy picks and even
Speaker 2: asked about sexual positions.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is coming to us from a report from
Speaker 1: NBC News, which says they have reviewed these text messages
Speaker 1: and find them to be authentic. But her responses to him,
Speaker 1: and some of these included please tell me you didn't
Speaker 1: just hire me because I was hot. Another one says
Speaker 1: this is too far. Tony doesn't look good as rose.
Speaker 1: As far as his social media, it's business as usually
Speaker 1: talking about going to the State of the Union and not.
Speaker 1: But he says he's there was no how what was
Speaker 1: this thing? The rumors are? Uh, that was a way
Speaker 1: he said it. He didn't just say I did not
Speaker 1: This did not happen. But he said the rumors are
Speaker 1: false or something. Yeah, something, yes, unsubstantiated.
Speaker 3: Who knows.
Speaker 2: All right, we'll continue to follow that story. But next
Speaker 2: on the run, we had to Utah, where testimony is
Speaker 2: underway after opening statements in the trial of thirty five
Speaker 2: year old Corey Richins. She's the mam of three who
Speaker 2: stands accused of killing her husband, arrested within weeks of
Speaker 2: published a book on helping kids through the grief of
Speaker 2: losing a parent.
Speaker 1: She was for Traye in court yesterday as a desperate
Speaker 1: woman who was millions of dollars in debt and wanted
Speaker 1: to be with another guide. They say she killed Eric Richards,
Speaker 1: her husband, by slipping him five times the lethal dose
Speaker 1: of fentanyl in a Moscow mule after telling him or
Speaker 1: excuse me, after trying to poison him a month earlier
Speaker 1: with a fentanyl laced sandwich that forced him to use
Speaker 1: an EpiPen and take benadryl. So she used, charged with
Speaker 1: his murder and attempted murder, all in the same guy set.
Speaker 3: I've not seen that before. Right.
Speaker 2: More than one time, the defense asked yours not to
Speaker 2: rush to judgment, though before hearing Corey's side of the story.
Speaker 2: Through cross it does appear though they are setting up
Speaker 2: a defense that's blaming the victim. They're suggesting either her
Speaker 2: husband either accidentally ingested the fentanyl, that he perhaps even
Speaker 2: deliberately took the drug, that he was addicted to painkillers
Speaker 2: from chronic pain. Richins is facing, by the way, nearly
Speaker 2: three dozen charges, including aggravated murder, yes attempted murder, forgery,
Speaker 2: mortgage and insurance fraud.
Speaker 3: The accounts go on and on.
Speaker 1: Next up on the run here now. BAFTA is apologizing,
Speaker 1: the BBC is apologizing, but the guy who uttered the
Speaker 1: inward while Michael B Jordan and del Roy Lindo were
Speaker 1: on stage did not apologize. This story is being talked
Speaker 1: about everywhere this week after what happened on Sunday at
Speaker 1: the BAFTA Awards ceremony. Well, del Roy Lindo and Michael
Speaker 1: B Jordan were presenting the first award of the night.
Speaker 1: You could hear the slur shouted out in this quiet theater.
Speaker 2: That's right, and the man doing the shouting was John
Speaker 2: Davidson from the nominated film I Swear. That movie is
Speaker 2: about his struggle with Tourette syndrome, and during the show
Speaker 2: he had several outbursts attributed to tics, including yes, shouting
Speaker 2: the N word. BAFTA and the BBC initially apologized, including
Speaker 2: for the outbursts not being edited out of their initial
Speaker 2: broadcast because they did have.
Speaker 1: That option, but Davidson released a statement as well. This
Speaker 1: is who I think a lot of people were waiting
Speaker 1: to hear for waiting to hear from, and it stood
Speaker 1: out that there was no mention of Michael B. Jordan
Speaker 1: or del Roy Lindo, and there was no apology of
Speaker 1: any kind. He said quote. I wanted to thank Baft
Speaker 1: and everyone involved in the awards last night for their
Speaker 1: support and understanding and inviting me to attend the broadcast.
Speaker 1: I felt welcomed and understood in an environment that would
Speaker 1: normally be impossible for me. I am and always have been,
Speaker 1: deeply mortified if anyone considers my involuntary ticks to be
Speaker 1: intentional or to carry any meaning. I have spent my
Speaker 1: life trying to support, empower the Turet's community and to
Speaker 1: teach empathy, kindness and understanding from others, and I will
Speaker 1: continue to do so. I choose to leave the auditory.
Speaker 1: I chose to leave the auditorium early into the ceremony
Speaker 1: as I was aware of the distress my tics were causing.
Speaker 1: But no apology for the distress, empathy, kindness, and understanding.
Speaker 3: Damn he wants that for himself again.
Speaker 1: I'm trying. I'm trying, robes. But the two black men
Speaker 1: who are our elites stood up on a stage and
Speaker 1: the world and got the inward hurled at them, and
Speaker 1: the guy who did it didn't even mention their name
Speaker 1: of the discomfort or the anger, or the trauma or anything.
Speaker 1: People can forgive, Robes, we can forgive.
Speaker 2: We absolutely can have to acknowledge and apologize asking for it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is not even acknowledging.
Speaker 1: Asking for it. This is a tough one. We tried
Speaker 1: what robes with understanding of Turet's and that's meaningful, and
Speaker 1: that was a worthy conversation. But now he has sparked
Speaker 1: a new one and a different one that changes the story.
Speaker 1: Maybe this was a mistake. Maybe did you see anything
Speaker 1: else I looked?
Speaker 3: I didn't. That statement was his statement.
Speaker 1: Overlook something all right, folks will stay with us on
Speaker 1: this Tuesday Morning run when we come back. A very
Speaker 1: big company wants a very big refund from the federal
Speaker 1: government over those tariffs. Will they get it? Also, an
Speaker 1: update from Lindsay Vaughn that as horrible as that crash looked,
Speaker 1: it sounds like it was even much worse than we thought.
Speaker 1: We got an update from her, and there is a
Speaker 1: new Fight of the Century in the works. It's actually
Speaker 1: a replay of the last fight of the century we
Speaker 1: had with two supposed to be retired boxers. Stay here.
Speaker 2: Continuing our Tuesday Morning run everyone FedEx wants its money back.
Speaker 2: The company has filed a lawsuit demanding a tariff refund
Speaker 2: from the Trump administration now that the Supreme Court has
Speaker 2: ruled the bulk of the President's tariffs are and were illegal.
Speaker 1: Now, so how much do they want back? Don't know,
Speaker 1: don't have the exact number. They didn't mention that necessarily
Speaker 1: in the lawsuit. But this appears to be the first
Speaker 1: major lawsuits since the Supreme Court's Friday decision knocking down
Speaker 1: those tariffs. Tons of other companies, I think they say
Speaker 1: the numbers in the hurrent hundreds have been suing the administration,
Speaker 1: but this is the first one since the actual Supreme
Speaker 1: Court decision that says the tariffs are illegals. So now
Speaker 1: you got pretty good justification and lawsuit.
Speaker 2: I wonder how many lawsuits the Trump administration has either
Speaker 2: actually initiated or fielded in just one year. I bet
Speaker 2: it rivals like ten years of other administrations. Like this
Speaker 2: is significant. I've never talked or reported about so many
Speaker 2: just legal back and forth in my life.
Speaker 1: Is it a five digit number or six digit? Is
Speaker 1: the number of lawsuits have to be in the tens
Speaker 1: of thousands.
Speaker 3: Yes, but I was a six digit Did it make
Speaker 3: one hundred thousand?
Speaker 1: They have one hundred thousand lawsuits been flying around since.
Speaker 3: We should investigate, Okay, we should investigate.
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 3: In the meantime though, yeah, no, I do not. Next
Speaker 3: to It's overwhelming.
Speaker 2: Next up on the run, Lindsay Vaughn says she almost
Speaker 2: lost her leg. We all, of course remember that horrific
Speaker 2: crash she had thirteen seconds into her run at the
Speaker 2: beginning of her downhill at the Olympics.
Speaker 1: So the official word we got was that it was
Speaker 1: a complex tibia fracture, But in an Instagram post yesterday,
Speaker 1: she explained that she developed something called compartment syndrome. I
Speaker 1: wasn't familiar with this, but it's a build up of
Speaker 1: pressure inside your muscle that can be caused by swelling
Speaker 1: or caused by fluid. This is nasty stuff. And she
Speaker 1: gave much love to her doctor for saving her leg.
Speaker 2: Wow, doctor Tom Hackett, she said, saved my leg. He
Speaker 2: saved my leg from being amputated. He did what's called
Speaker 2: a faciotomy where he cut open both sides of my
Speaker 2: leg and kind of filate it open, let it breathe,
Speaker 2: and he saved me.
Speaker 1: That's wild.
Speaker 3: So my mom actually had the surgery.
Speaker 2: Why, I know that's crazy, but from all her running,
Speaker 2: it probably wasn't as severe, but she They had to
Speaker 2: cut open her leg and then reattach it.
Speaker 3: But it is incredibly painful. She's going to be in
Speaker 3: the wheel in a.
Speaker 2: Wheelchair for the next couple of months because she also
Speaker 2: broke her ankle.
Speaker 3: This, I mean, look, I get it.
Speaker 2: This is but it shows you what these athletes put
Speaker 2: themselves through and the risks they take to do what
Speaker 2: they do at the level they're doing it. This is remarkable.
Speaker 2: Thank god she's okay. Thank God she'll be able to
Speaker 2: walk again. But she she was in her posts. She
Speaker 2: made it very she almost had an amputation.
Speaker 1: Oh god, that as bad as it looked, now I
Speaker 1: feel even worse about it. But man, it's to your point, Robes,
Speaker 1: that what they're willing to do. She voluntarily put herself
Speaker 1: out there. No, obviously she didn't think anything was going
Speaker 1: to be this bad. But man, much love, Lindsey Vaughan.
Speaker 1: The final leg of our run here now Mayweather Pakiao
Speaker 1: is on again. A decade after their first fight of
Speaker 1: the century, these two boxing icons have agreed to a
Speaker 1: real fight later this year. This isn't some of this
Speaker 1: BS we've been seeing these exhibitions with folks coming out
Speaker 1: of retirement. These dudes are going to fight through.
Speaker 3: I don't know what that means.
Speaker 1: It means that these two guys who retired essentially a
Speaker 1: long time ago are going to retrain, get back in
Speaker 1: a ring, and make a shit ton of money because
Speaker 1: this is going to happen. Ropes at the Sphere in
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. I haven't been there yet for a concert,
Speaker 1: but there's gorgeous thing saying it is a sphere period
Speaker 1: but it looks gorgeous. But some concerts have been taking
Speaker 1: place in there, but this will be the first boxing
Speaker 1: match to take place there. It's going to be on
Speaker 1: Netflix September nineteenth. Netflix. That's killing it there. Yeah, spark
Speaker 1: with these big events. These two first fought roads. You
Speaker 1: remember twenty fifteen Vegas. You were probably on the set
Speaker 1: when I was in that arena wo previewing it, and
Speaker 1: I called it it's the most exclusive room in the
Speaker 1: world because everybody wanted to be in there for that fight.
Speaker 1: It was a tough ticket.
Speaker 2: To get Woo and Mayweather won that one unanimous decision,
Speaker 2: and at the time they were viewed as the two
Speaker 2: best boxers on the planet.
Speaker 1: They made all that, they said, almost every record, and
Speaker 1: I think it still stands at seventy plus million at
Speaker 1: the gate, just at the gate. They're not talking about
Speaker 1: pay per view numbers, just tickets going into that thing.
Speaker 3: It's a world I don't understand.
Speaker 1: Seventy million dollars. Mayweather hasn't fought professionally since twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: Pacquiao has stayed kind of active. But no matter what,
Speaker 1: they're past their prime. I want to say, they're watched up.
Speaker 1: But we'll watch it. We have to.
Speaker 2: Of course we're gonna watch it. You're putting that on
Speaker 2: the calendar right now, September nineteenth. In fact, maybe you're
Speaker 2: even looking at Vegas.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm trying to make sure we don't book other stuff.
Speaker 1: That's why that calendar is so important.
Speaker 3: Baby, got it, got it, got it all right.
Speaker 2: On this Tuesday, we will leave you with our quote
Speaker 2: of the day. This one spoke to me. I loved it.
Speaker 2: It's from Johann Wolfgang von Guette, who is that like
Speaker 2: an ancient philosopher, I shouldn't say ancient, but a much older,
Speaker 2: centuries old philosopher. Treat people as if they were what
Speaker 2: they ought to be, and you help them become what
Speaker 2: they are capable of being.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to apply that to this Tourette's guy.
Speaker 1: Say it again for me, And I.
Speaker 3: Didn't even think about that.
Speaker 2: This is I'll treat people as if they were what
Speaker 2: they ought to be they ought to be, and you
Speaker 2: help them become what they're capable of being. And look,
Speaker 2: I actually think you do this a lot. Instead of
Speaker 2: only someone out, you treat them as if they know better.
Speaker 2: And so it's almost if someone hurled an insult at
Speaker 2: you or said something they shouldn't, He's like, I know
Speaker 2: you know better than that. Isn't that so much more
Speaker 2: effective than coming back with some sort of reaction or
Speaker 2: defense or anger. And it elevates everything and it gives
Speaker 2: people an opportunity to grow. And if that's what the
Speaker 2: goal is, which I would hope it would be, that
Speaker 2: actually makes so much sense. I just I loved this quote.
Speaker 3: It's great.
Speaker 1: I didn't. Yes, I do think it's great. I don't
Speaker 1: think about doing it, but you do.
Speaker 3: When I read this, I thought, you know, TJ does
Speaker 3: this a lot.
Speaker 1: I'm struggling with it with mister Davidson, I understand, get
Speaker 1: into it later.
Speaker 2: Yes, we will, all right, And with that everyone, thank
Speaker 2: you for running with us. I'm made me Robot, and
Speaker 2: I'm TJ. Holmes talks him
