It's going to push another 103 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: blo cold air next week, and then another one the 104 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: week after that, So everyone is going to be in 105 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: the holiday spirits here in this neck of the woods. 106 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: But yes, a polar vortex, In case you were wondering, 107 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: it feels like it's self explanatory, but. 108 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: It wasn't to me. I couldn't really spout off what 109 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: a polar vortex is. 110 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 2: I just know that means it's going to be super cold, 111 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 2: and it's coming from the Arctic region, so a wide 112 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: expanse of cold, swirling air located over the poles that 113 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 2: forces frigid air southward. 114 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, they say it's displaced where it gets a little 115 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: unstable and stuff starts coming our way, And we got 116 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: three rounds of it over the next few weeks. Also today, 117 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: keeping an eye on a couple of courtrooms as we say, 118 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: A testimony scheduled to resume in the trial of Brian Walsh, 119 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: the Massachusetts man who is admitted to dismembering and disposing 120 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: of his wife's body but says he did not kill her. 121 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: Last week was the first full week of testimony. A 122 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: lot of it focused on a lot of the internet 123 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: searches he was doing in the immediate aftermath of her death, 124 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: trying to suggest that maybe did he kill her, did 125 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: he not? And they're trying to piece all that together 126 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: so that testimony will resume this morning. 127 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. The judge said on Friday when she let urers 128 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 2: go that there should be possibly another two weeks or 129 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: a little bit ahead of schedule, but two more full 130 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: weeks of testimony, so that should be interesting. They may 131 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 2: be getting this decision in their hands the week of Christmas, 132 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 2: so we'll see how that all times out. Also today, 133 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,559 Speaker 2: Luigi Manngioni, the accused United Healthcare CEO shooter, is back 134 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 2: in court today to continue pre trial hearings. He was 135 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: actually supposed to do that on Friday, but he got sick, 136 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 2: so they had to postpone it and push it to today. 137 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 2: But his attorneys right now trying to get some evidence 138 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: thrown out, including very important evidence to the prosecution's case, 139 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 2: contents of that backpack, which included that three D printed 140 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 2: gun he was carrying when he was arrested at that 141 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: McDonald's in Pennsylvania. 142 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: I can't imagine what do you do there if that 143 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: evidence gets thrown out. 144 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 2: It was his manifesto. It was a lot of what 145 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: went into and what was a part of this year. 146 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: So that will be key and will be very interesting 147 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: to see what the judge decides. 148 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: All right, Next up on the Run here, how do 149 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: you get fired from Cinnabon? I don't know why the 150 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: classic Friday line from Chris Tucker, like how you get 151 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: fired on your day off? This is kind of one 152 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: of those things. It's cinnabon, right, It's not like. 153 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 2: You're wat's supposed to be sweet. 154 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's not like you're an airline pilot and 155 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: you just show up with the smell of alcohol in 156 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: your breath and maybe you get reprimanded. This is Cinnabon. 157 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: I assume there's a lower standard for getting fired. But 158 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: this woman has now been fired immediately, and it's all 159 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: because of a video that's now gone viral.

But 161 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: she's working at a Cinabon and there's a couple that 162 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: we don't see, but we hear this woman, this white woman, 163 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: certainly appears to be a white woman, say some pretty 164 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: nasty stuff to this couple. 165 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, she admits full out right away, I'm a racist. 166 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 2: This was a Somali couple. What we don't see is 167 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: what happened before the couple decided to start recording on it, 168 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: and you hear him taunting her at one point and saying, 169 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 2: you're going to get effing fired for this, But she 170 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 2: was not backing down and doubled down and started calling 171 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: them the N word and flicked them off. All sorts 172 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: of vile, vulgar, completely inappropriate behavior by this woman who 173 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: was working at Sinnabon. So yes, Cinnabon fired her and 174 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,119 Speaker 2: put out this statement. The individual scene in the video 175 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: was immediately terminated by the franchise owner. Their actions and 176 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: statements are completely unacceptable and in no way reflects the 177 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: value of Cinnabon, our French franchise, franchisees, or the welcoming 178 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 2: environment we expect for every guest and team member. So 179 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 2: there's that, but then turn to give send to go. 180 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: It's a Christian crowdfunding page that we have seen something 181 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: similar actually, but yes, there has been a rally of 182 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: support behind her to the tune of ninety thousand dollars 183 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: in counting. 184 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, someone who here, well at least they say this 185 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: money is going to benefit this woman and does say 186 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: her name there as well that they say this money 187 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 1: is going to benefit her. Now the write up is. 188 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 2: Something I have it in front of me. It says, 189 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 2: meet Crystal, hardworking white mom doing her job at cinnabon. 190 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 2: Two Somali customers decide to make her shift hell with intimidation. 191 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: Instead of banning the offenders and backing their employees, Sinnabon 192 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 2: fires Crystal to keep the nons happy. We're not letting 193 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 2: this slide funds go to making sure Crystal lands on 194 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 2: her feet after this betrayal. No white person should lose 195 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 2: their job for refusing to be harassed by some mollies. 196 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 2: And then it shows her smiling with her cinnabon, looking sweet, 197 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 2: with her blonde hair tied up in a bun. She 198 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 2: looks like a very sweet mom, just working hard. 199 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: I am not going to, you know, interpret, give any 200 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: comment or any context for that, you know it. Sometimes 201 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: you just read it and. 202 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 2: Let anybody will decide what they want to take away 203 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: from that. 204 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: There you go, all right, continuing on the run here now. 205 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: President Trump was hosting the Kennedy Center Honors last night. 206 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 1: Of course, over the years, we usually see the president 207 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: sitting in the audience for these things, but last night 208 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: was the first time rose that a president has ever 209 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: served as host. And we saw what Fox News had 210 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: coverage of him on the red carpet, and he was 211 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: walking that carpet, held a full dawn press conference for 212 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: the most part as he walked, But he was in 213 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: his element. It just sometimes he has a good energy, 214 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: a good vibe. He's kind of upbeat, and he just 215 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: likes this celebrity thing and it's a TV show kind 216 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: of He was in his He was in his element. 217 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: Although I have to say that we weren't privy to 218 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 2: who was on the red carpet with him. But the 219 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: questions that were being asked were right, just they were 220 00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: perfect for him, right. 221 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: These weren't questions about peace deals. 222 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: Hey, they weren't asking about Gaza or about Ukraine. They're like, 223 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 2: what's your favorite music? What goes into making a good song? 224 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: I guess it was thematically appropriate given what he was 225 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: doing and where he was going. But Sylvester Stallone, Michael 226 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 2: Crawford of Phantom of the Opera Fame, George Strait, Gloria 227 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 2: Gaynor Kiss all were honored. And this is the first 228 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 2: time Trump even attended, right, He never attended this during 229 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 2: his first term, essentially boycott it until he was the host. 230 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 2: And you know what, it will be very fascinating. This 231 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: all airs on CBS on December twenty third, so we 232 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: will see the President take on hosting duties for the 233 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: Kennedy Center Awards in the coming. 234 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: I believe those ratings are going to be huge, the 235 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: biggest ever. 236 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,719 Speaker 2: We'll hear all about them, I'm sure the following day. 237 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: All Right, next up on the run here and also 238 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: got a President Trump related in. The National Park Service 239 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: is making another change to its entrance fees and policies. 240 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: Now remember this wasn't long ago. A couple of months back, 241 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: we were talking about how they were changing their policies 242 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: to where if you're not a US citizen. Yeah, international 243 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: travelers visiting our parks, we're going to be paying up 244 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: to one hundred dollars more for their tickets. So they 245 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: were changing some. 246 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 2: Things, correct, But now here's another update. Oh god, Emma, 247 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm laughing because this is really it's not funny, 248 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 2: but it's it's on brand. MLK Day and June teenth 249 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 2: will no longer be free days. Beforehand, those were the 250 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 2: days among several where visitors don't have to pay for admission. 251 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 2: So now on MLK Day and juneteenth you're going to 252 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: have to pay. 253 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: Yes, and several other holidays that they do acknowledge as 254 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: free days, and which is cool, but they took out 255 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: MLK Day and June teenth, and what has gone onto 256 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: the list now of free days is June fourteenth, which 257 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: happens to be President Trump's birthday, so it's. 258 00:12:55,400 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: Not June thirteenth. It's June fourteenth. 259 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: Yes, his birthday is now on the list of free days. 260 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: Look like you said, this is on brand with dumping 261 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: anything related to diversity DEI or whatever. And they actually 262 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: are no longer honoring those days, those holidays where people 263 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: go to these parks. Actually, people pointed out MLK Day 264 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 1: is not just a day off. It's been for years 265 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: promoted as a day on a day of service and 266 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: people actually use those days to go to parks to 267 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: clean up, and so those are no longer free days. 268 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: But you can get in on June fourteenth, the President's birthday, 269 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: which they also point out as well. 270 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: Is Flag Day just a coincidence. 271 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: I'm sure Flag Day, all right. Those changes take effects 272 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: on January one. Also on the run here, the college 273 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: football playoff is set, and per usual, somebody's pissed off 274 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: this year. It's Notre Dame's term. They are the first 275 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: team left out. Your top seeds are Indiana, Ohio State, Georgia, 276 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: and Texas Tech. They'll get first round byes. Now, this 277 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: is the second year of this expanded twelve team playoff ropes. 278 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: There were, you know, the smaller playoffs before fourteen six 279 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: teams and somebody was always upset. Whoever got left out 280 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: got upset. So he expanded to twelve. We thought we'd 281 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: solve some of these problems. 282 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's always going to be somebody to be 283 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 2: so upset. Yes, and Notre Dame had an impressive resume 284 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 2: ten and two. They were ranked eleventh. So they say 285 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 2: that they feel like they got punched in the stomach. 286 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 2: And they were offered a bowl game, the Pop Tarts 287 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 2: Bowl in Orlando, and they refused. 288 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, what do you do there? We were 289 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,479 Speaker 1: on the verge of possibly competing for a national championship, 290 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: and now you want me to go to Orlando and 291 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: get myself hyped up for the Pop Tarts Bowl. No 292 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: offense to that bowl or that city is just what 293 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: these kids had in their mind to present that to them. 294 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: They really really are disappointed with what happened. 295 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, what the athletic director said really sums it up. 296 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 2: He said there was no explanation that could possibly be 297 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 2: given to explain the outcome. One thing is for sure, 298 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 2: any rankings or show prior to this last one is 299 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 2: an absolute joke and a waste of time. Why put 300 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 2: these young students athletes through these false emotions? Just to 301 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: pull the rug out from underneath them, having not played 302 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: a game in two weeks, and then a group of 303 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 2: people in a room shatter their dreams without explanation. 304 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: Yes, they're always going to be a debate, but unfortunate 305 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: for them, but it's set. Congrats to Georgia who had 306 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: a good weekend. Also, people upset Alabama got in after 307 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: getting drawn by Georgia. They got three losses and they 308 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: made it in, So that's another part of the debate 309 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: as well. Next up on the run here, those Waymos 310 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: self driving taxis have not been obeying traffic laws because 311 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: they've been driving around school buses. The company is planning 312 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: a recall to address numerous reports of the cars ignoring 313 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: warnings and passing stopped school buses roads. We all know 314 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: that is a major, major no. 315 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 2: No scary and I don't know what these weimo. I'm 316 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: guessing that if something comes in front of them, they 317 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: automatically stop. But I'm guessing, like I wouldn't want my 318 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: child to test it out to see what happens. Is 319 00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 2: they're crossing the street and it's going around to school bus. 320 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 2: The buses had red lights flashing, the stop arm was 321 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 2: deployed and still it went around. There are nineteen incidents 322 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 2: reported in the Austin school district alone. But here's you 323 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 2: know everyone parents just feel at ease because, according to Waimo, 324 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: they think they've identified the fix. 325 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: They think they think by hope, I mean they need 326 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: to get this work out, Garrett, God forbid, can you 327 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: have met this company's gonna go away? 328 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 2: If absolutely yes? 329 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: And they know God for bid yes, and they know 330 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: that we'll stay with us, folks on this Monday morning 331 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: run when we come back.

And it'll only 336 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: cost you two bucks stick hear, continuing on the run here. 337 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: Now the box office hasn't had a stay year. Actually 338 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: the fast past couple of months have been really down. 339 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: But you know, had a good got some pick me 340 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: up with Wicket of course, had good thanksgivings Utopia, so 341 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: things are looking good.

I 347 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 2: have to say we watched the first one. We were excited. 348 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 2: It wasn't our cup of tea. But I get the 349 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: genre's fun. It's it's horror, fun, silly, campy. 350 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: The PG thirteen. I believe G thirteen. 351 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 2: So yes, I think it's been interesting to watch horror 352 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: movies that take on a PG thirteen genre. Like you 353 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: bring in these younger kids who want to get into 354 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 2: the horror film and this is setting and they get 355 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 2: in and have fun. 356 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: And this is another one's based on a video game. 357 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: This was a very popular video game. And there you go. 358 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: I'll saw this weekend's Utopia two cause it's tear almost 359 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: up to a billion dollars in its first two weeks, 360 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: up to nine hundred and eighteen million in Wicked for 361 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: Good keeps doing its thing and packing up. No, I 362 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: think we said Golden Goals isn't wouldn't Wicked be? Absolutely okay? 363 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: So it's in that mix, yes, okay, how all I 364 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: know Wicked and whatever? Timothy Shallamey is doing is probably 365 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: we'll have. 366 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 2: A list of movies that we are probably going to 367 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 2: have to add because we pretty much just go watch 368 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 2: horror movies. So when you start to see the Oscar Nods, 369 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 2: then we start watching we start branching out to other genres. 370 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 2: So we'll get a list of going so we can 371 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 2: watch some stuff during Christmas. Next up on the Run, 372 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 2: we got Katie Perry and Justin Trudeau. Did you hear 373 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: they are officially dating. We've been talking about this since 374 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 2: the summer, but no, they made it Instagram official. It 375 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 2: is a choice. And it was a very cute photo 376 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: that Katy Perry posted and then a little video of 377 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 2: them eating sushi. She's touring in Tokyo. He is along 378 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 2: there with her at least for this little bit of 379 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 2: her tour, and they look adorable together. 380 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: That's cool. They for whatever reason makes sense to me, 381 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, saw this one going. When was that picture 382 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: of the dinner? It was in June? 383 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: Or it was June or July, I mean it was 384 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 2: it's been a while, it has been, yeah, it was. 385 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 2: It was shortly after she left or her I guess 386 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 2: it's a relationship with Orlando Bloom was over or we 387 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 2: found out it was over because they were only engaged. 388 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 2: They never got married. And then yeah, pretty shortly thereafter 389 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 2: she started being seen with Justin on in the restaurant 390 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 2: on a yacht. 391 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: They were engaged how long and they didn't get made. 392 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 2: I don't know, years and years and years. They were 393 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 2: together for a long time, like I believed nine or 394 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 2: ten years. 395 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: It's not healthy, though, make her wait that long saying. 396 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 2: Right, there's a reason why, but probably made things a 397 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 2: lot easier in the end. 398 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: Okay, And I got right, folks. Finally here on the run. 399 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: We're also once again tiptoeing our way up to a 400 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: billion dollar jackpot power Ball up to eight hundred and 401 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: seventy five million.

It is barely above thirty two degrees here 406 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: in New York today, and we are by the water. 407 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: Are we really gonna walk over there and get tickets? 408 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 2: Are we going to brave the polar vortex? 409 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: Part on? 410 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 2: Possibly I might get a little store crazy staying in 411 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: the apartment all day. However, when I look outside, it 412 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 2: doesn't look too inviting. We can hear the wind in 413 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 2: our apartment, Like that's what it's like, all. 414 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: Right, folks. Well, before we let you go about your 415 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: day and we stop making wind noises, something we like 416 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: for you to take with you. It is our quote 417 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: of the day Robes. The quote is criticism is something 418 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: you can easily avoid by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being. 419 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 2: Nothing right, so you're always going to get criticized, will 420 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 2: repair thyself. 421 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: But we think we can play it safe. 422 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: That's sure. 423 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: I don't want anybody talking bad about me, so I 424 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: don't want to take on that challenge. I don't want 425 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: to speak up for so many reasons. We avoid things 426 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: because we don't want criticism or glowback. And that's fine 427 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: if you want to go about that way. 428 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, it reminds me of another quote. If you 429 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything or fall 430 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 2: for everything. But it's true. It's it's important to be 431 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: who you are and recognize that you're never gonna please everybody, 432 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: and that I think if you just go into it 433 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 2: with that thought knowing, hey, not everybody's gonna like me. 434 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 2: That does help. 435 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 1: Well, folk, take that with you today. Criticism something you 436 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 1: can easily avoid by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing. 437 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: And with that, folks, we always appreciate you going along 438 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: for a run with us.
