Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
Speaker 1: morning everyone, It's Tuesday, May twenty seventh, or back to
Speaker 1: work day for a lot of you out there.
Speaker 2: Welcome to Morning Run.
Speaker 3: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ. Holmes and on the
Speaker 3: Tuesday Morning Run. This morning, a mini van mows down
Speaker 3: a crowd of people who had gathered for a victory
Speaker 3: celebration injuring fifty.
Speaker 1: The French president is trying to explain that shove now
Speaker 1: seen around the world. Cameras catching his wife apparently hitting
Speaker 1: him in the face as the door to their plane
Speaker 1: opens in front of waiting members of the media.
Speaker 3: Also rip to a legendary lawmaker, longtime New York Congressman
Speaker 3: Charlie Rangel, has died at the age of ninety four.
Speaker 3: Also this morning, three more escaped inmates from that New
Speaker 3: Orleans jail break have been captured.
Speaker 1: Two to go, and the third week of the Sewan
Speaker 1: did Heycomb's trial resumes today after taking a break for
Speaker 1: the Memorial Day holiday. Plus, singer Billy Joel announces he's
Speaker 1: canceling the rest of his tour for the summer as
Speaker 1: he recovers from a brain condition.
Speaker 3: Also this morning, a man decides to go for a
Speaker 3: sixty mile swim in shark infested waters for Memorial Day,
Speaker 3: and not just any shark infested waters, the home of Jaws. Also,
Speaker 3: j Lo turns the American Music Awards into a kissing
Speaker 3: booth last night, and our opening performance wasn't the only
Speaker 3: shocker of the evening.
Speaker 1: Plus a big congratulations to singer Demi Levado who got
Speaker 1: married over the weekend. And the age old question coke
Speaker 1: or pepsi? Apparently it isn't even a question anymore? Is
Speaker 1: pepsi fizzling out?
Speaker 3: But I'm bomb? Okay? See, I thought it was solid.
Speaker 3: You didn't have to do the but dumb bomb. We
Speaker 3: embraced that. You were embracing the joke, the bad, bad joke.
Speaker 2: You just told me it was just punny, punny joke.
Speaker 3: I just told Buddy, embraced it. It's all good. But
Speaker 3: we will get into that in just a little bit.
Speaker 3: We have to start through this morning the run over
Speaker 3: in Liverpool, England, where a fifty three year old British
Speaker 3: man has been arrested for driving his vehicle into a
Speaker 3: crowd that was celebrating their football team's Premier League victory.
Speaker 3: He injured. Nearly fifty people, including four children. Twenty seven
Speaker 3: folks had to go to the hospital.
Speaker 1: According to officials, three adults and one child actually had
Speaker 1: to be pulled from underneath the suspect's vehicle. Police have
Speaker 1: not given a motive for the attack, but they did
Speaker 1: say it was not an act of terrorism. British Prime
Speaker 1: Minister Keir Starmer posted this on social media. The scenes
Speaker 1: in Liverpool are appalling. My thoughts are with all those
Speaker 1: injured or affected. And when you see the images and
Speaker 1: even the video of the aftermath of what happened, it's
Speaker 1: remarkable no one died, so that is at least for now.
Speaker 1: I believe four people who are considered seriously injured. But
Speaker 1: again no casualties, thankfully, but so many injuries.
Speaker 3: It wasn't a high rate of speed I suppose as
Speaker 3: he was going through We saw the scene of course
Speaker 3: New Years in New Orleans, where that person clearly had
Speaker 3: intent as they were mowing through the crowd. This one
Speaker 3: was going slower. They say no terrorism. That at least
Speaker 3: you breathe a sigh of relief. But what was going
Speaker 3: on was their medical emergency? What was the problem in
Speaker 3: the car?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they still have to figure it out. They say
Speaker 2: they are doing.
Speaker 1: You know, they're going to be interviewing this man and
Speaker 1: obviously going through the scene. But right now they have
Speaker 1: not given any indication as to how or why this happened.
Speaker 3: And you've been looking at this a little more than
Speaker 3: I have this morning, also not saying whether or not
Speaker 3: at all if it was an intentional act. Correct, right, correct,
Speaker 3: All right, we will continue our run here this morning.
Speaker 3: Next leg takes us to Vietnam, where there's been a
Speaker 3: geoplanetary catastrophe. That's how French President Emmanuel Macaron is sarcastically
Speaker 3: describing a private moment between him and his wife that
Speaker 3: the whole world saw and robe the whole world is
Speaker 3: talking and debating about this one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is tough. So here's what happened.
Speaker 1: Macrone had just landed in Vietnam and was about to
Speaker 1: do that customary presidential walk down the steps from his plane.
Speaker 2: Well, here's the problem.
Speaker 1: When the plane door opens, you see Macron standing inside
Speaker 1: the plane and talking to someone who's off to the side.
Speaker 1: A moment later, you then see his wife's hands come
Speaker 1: into frame and shove Macron in the face.
Speaker 3: Yes, Brigitte, his wife pushes him in the face. She
Speaker 3: uses both hands. It looks like at least one hand
Speaker 3: caught him clearly on the face and his head. Jerk's back. Now. Macrone,
Speaker 3: realizing that the door had opened and that he was
Speaker 3: probably on camera, quickly gave a quick smile after he
Speaker 3: was shoved and scuttled out of frame. It looked like
Speaker 3: a to be honest with you, looked like a little
Speaker 3: kid who had just got caught doing something.
Speaker 2: He had a shocked look on his face.
Speaker 3: Initially, yes he did. Now moments after that happened. Yes,
Speaker 3: the two did fully emerge in front of cameras and
Speaker 3: they walk down those steps together.
Speaker 1: Notably though they were not holding hands TJ people have
Speaker 1: pointed that out, so perhaps you know, she wasn't too.
Speaker 2: Happy with him, or vice versa. The quick video quickly
Speaker 2: went viral.
Speaker 1: In fact, it's been slow mode and paused and zoomed
Speaker 1: in on if you want to take a look at it.
Speaker 1: It was in all the papers back in France. That's
Speaker 1: all they could talk about. Did the French president just
Speaker 1: get smacked by his wife in the middle of a
Speaker 1: domestic dispute that was caught on camera. That is the question.
Speaker 1: But the answer, according to the French president is no.
Speaker 1: He came out later and said they were just playing around.
Speaker 1: Here's what he said, and we'll quote him here. We
Speaker 1: are bickering. I don't know how much that's playful, but
Speaker 1: we are bickering and joking with my wife, and a
Speaker 1: video becomes a sort of geoplanetary catastrophe.
Speaker 3: It wasn't just him that was on camera. He made
Speaker 3: some comments to reporters, but his office put an official
Speaker 3: statements saying, quote, it was a moment where the president
Speaker 3: and his wife were decompressing one last time before the
Speaker 3: start of the trip by horsing around. Would you let
Speaker 3: me get through this? In quote. They went on to
Speaker 3: call this a moment of complicity, meaning that conspiracy theorists
Speaker 3: now have some ammunition. Two issues and one raw. You're snickering.
Speaker 3: Bickering got me and de compressing got me as two
Speaker 3: words that make me scratch my head to go in.
Speaker 1: They don't go They don't pair well with joking and
Speaker 1: horsing around. There is a very different sentiment to bickering
Speaker 1: and to decompressing. That doesn't sound like a positive thing.
Speaker 2: Yet, when you're saying.
Speaker 1: You're joking and horsing around, that seems playful and fun.
Speaker 1: I don't think there was anything playful or.
Speaker 2: Fun about what we saw.
Speaker 3: I don't know if something got lost in translation with
Speaker 3: from French to English. Is bickering actually the right word?
Speaker 3: That would it mean? Maybe? I'm only saying maybe, But
Speaker 3: when you see the shove there is I'm sorry. This
Speaker 3: is not a matter of being subjective. He was shoved
Speaker 3: pretty significantly to his head and he jerked back. Whether
Speaker 3: they were playing around, couples do it, brothers and sisters
Speaker 3: do it? I mean, it happens, I don't know, But
Speaker 3: looking at it, it looked like a serious shove to
Speaker 3: the head.
Speaker 1: It looked like she was angry at him, and they were,
Speaker 1: in fact, yes, bickering, and she went she took it
Speaker 1: too far and it got caught on camera.
Speaker 3: If that's the case, and hey, what do you do
Speaker 3: with that? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, I just think this is one of those
Speaker 1: moments where, yes, being a little bit more transparent might
Speaker 1: go a long way. Know what, because we all know
Speaker 1: what we saw, So to tell us what we saw
Speaker 1: was something different than what we saw, that's the problem.
Speaker 3: Only reason we're still talking about, yeah, is because of that.
Speaker 3: You're right, all right.
Speaker 1: Next up on the run the passing of a Congressional
Speaker 1: legend to tell you about former US Congressman from Harlem,
Speaker 1: New York, Charles we know alm Ass. Charlie Wrangele has
Speaker 1: died at the age of ninety four.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Congressman wrangle was the founding member of the Congressional
Speaker 3: Black Caucus and a Korean War vet. Was awarded both
Speaker 3: the Purple Heart and Bronze Star for his service. He
Speaker 3: served in Congress for forty seven years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I didn't know that. I didn't know
Speaker 1: he had the Bronze Star and the Purple Heart.
Speaker 2: That was cool to hear.
Speaker 1: He began his congressional career back in nineteen seventy one
Speaker 1: and over the next four decades. Yeah, he made quite
Speaker 1: a name for himself. He was the dean of the
Speaker 1: newer Congressional Delegation and the first African American to chair
Speaker 1: the Powerful Ways and Means Committee. He ultimately stepped down
Speaker 1: from that committee back in twenty after he was censured
Speaker 1: by the House for ethics violations.
Speaker 3: He continued to serve in Congress over the next seven
Speaker 3: years until his retirement in twenty seventeen. His family confirmed
Speaker 3: his passing saying he died at a hospital here in
Speaker 3: New York. His death follows the death of the love
Speaker 3: of his life, Alma, who also passed away at the
Speaker 3: age of ninety four last October. They met at the
Speaker 3: legendary so War Ballroom in Harlem back in the nineteen fifties.
Speaker 3: And yes, he did have that stain on his resume
Speaker 3: with those ethics violations, but going back to his youth
Speaker 3: and in his military record, this man served. I was
Speaker 3: just decades and decades and decades.
Speaker 1: In this country exactly. He was of service. And I
Speaker 1: loved when I read that about his wife. I had
Speaker 1: to put that in because I think so often we
Speaker 1: focus on someone's career and their accomplishments. But that sounded
Speaker 1: to me like one of the most beautiful parts of
Speaker 1: his life was the love story he had with his wife.
Speaker 1: And they do leave behind two children. And it's funny,
Speaker 1: I said, several grandchildren.
Speaker 2: There must be too many to count. I don't know.
Speaker 2: That was my takeaway from that.
Speaker 3: They didn't want to leave anyone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, all right.
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, we're going to head to
Speaker 1: New Orleans, where police have recaptured three more escaped inmates.
Speaker 2: Bringing the total to eight.
Speaker 1: Count two still on the run, and two of the
Speaker 1: recaptured inmates were actually found more than three hundred miles
Speaker 1: away in Houston, Texas, after police say they were forwarded
Speaker 1: a collateral lead. The other inmate was found in Baton Rouge.
Speaker 3: So you know by now, ten inmates got out of
Speaker 3: the jail. This was eleven days ago now. They ripped
Speaker 3: a toilet off the wall, climbed through the hole behind it,
Speaker 3: and got out of there. At least nine people have
Speaker 3: been arrested and charged in connection with helping the inmates
Speaker 3: in one way, form or fashion, either during or after
Speaker 3: their escape, including the jail maintenance worker who police say
Speaker 3: turned off the water to the toilet, which allowed the
Speaker 3: inmates to rip that toilet off the wall and then
Speaker 3: get away in a hole. The inmate, of course, the
Speaker 3: maintenance worker, of course, Ropes was just doing his job.
Speaker 1: Oh of course he was just you know, there was
Speaker 1: an overflowing toilet in a nearby cell. It just was coincidence,
Speaker 1: a little bigkuinkidink, all right. Jail surveillance video shows the
Speaker 1: inmates escaping around one am on May sixteenth, but jail
Speaker 1: officials weren't aware they were missing until more than seven
Speaker 1: hours later. A US Marshall described the two men who
Speaker 1: were made on the loose as extremely dangerous. That's an
Speaker 1: upgrade from what we heard before, and added that they
Speaker 1: could be quote unquote anywhere.
Speaker 3: Previously, they kept saying that they seemed to be all
Speaker 3: in the New Orleans and area and staying in the area,
Speaker 3: maybe trying to get out, and guess some of them did.
Speaker 2: They got out and yeah, pretty far away.
Speaker 3: All right, we will continue our run now. The next
Speaker 3: leg brings us back here to Manhattan, where the Diddy
Speaker 3: trial will resume after taking a break for the long
Speaker 3: holiday weekend, and as much of the Salatia's back and
Speaker 3: forth in the headlines, anytime there is a moment of
Speaker 3: levity in court, like to bring it to you. But
Speaker 3: the judge was telling the jurors, of course they're not sequestered,
Speaker 3: but don't talk to anybody about the trial. He told them, instead,
Speaker 3: watch the Knicks avenge their loss. So he gave them
Speaker 3: those instructions.
Speaker 2: And sure enough they did, which was kind of amazing.
Speaker 1: Maybe the judge could make more requirements of the jury
Speaker 1: to do that, maybe even for this evening with the
Speaker 1: next play again, anyway. This is the third full week
Speaker 1: of the trial. Testimonies expected to continue this morning with
Speaker 1: Sean Combe's former assistant taking the stand.
Speaker 2: The prosecution has called.
Speaker 1: Sixteen witnesses so far and contends, hey, they're running right
Speaker 1: on time. They expect to wrap up their case by
Speaker 1: the fourth of July, but then, of course the defense
Speaker 1: will take on their side of things.
Speaker 3: All right, we will continue our run here with news
Speaker 3: about Billy Joel. He has canceled his tour for the
Speaker 3: rest of the summer after announcing he has a brain condition.
Speaker 3: The condition is called normal pressure hydrocephalis and is treatable,
Speaker 3: but Joel says he's suffering with hearing, vision and balance
Speaker 3: issues that are being made worse by the performing.
Speaker 1: So he says, yeah, his doctors have asked him to
Speaker 1: take it easy, to focus on his physical therapy so
Speaker 1: he can return to the stage one day soon. That's
Speaker 1: what we got in terms of timing. Joel posted to
Speaker 1: his fans on social media that he is sincerely sorry
Speaker 1: to disappoint our audience and thanks them for understanding. Both
Speaker 1: Joel's current wife and his ex wife, Christy Brinkley, all
Speaker 1: took to social media supporting the piano man and thanking
Speaker 1: fans for the outpouring of love and well wishes that
Speaker 1: they have been sending Joel's way.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't done a deep dive on this condition,
Speaker 3: but they speak as if he can recover from it
Speaker 3: and possibly perform.
Speaker 2: Yes, there was a surgery you have to have done.
Speaker 1: It's basically about pressure in the back of your brain
Speaker 1: that builds and really affects your ability to Yeah, if
Speaker 1: you can't see well, if you can't hear well, if
Speaker 1: you if you can't balance well, you should not be
Speaker 1: up on stage. So he finally had to pull back
Speaker 1: from that. But man, I was looking for tickets for
Speaker 1: Annalis because he is one of her favorites. And I
Speaker 1: actually saw he was coming to City Field. I got excited,
Speaker 1: and now they've canceled.
Speaker 2: All of it. So we'll wait for his return and
Speaker 2: hope for the best.
Speaker 3: We me do I Madison Square Garden, it seems like
Speaker 3: and he sells out like just ten shows.
Speaker 1: Yes, they and it speaks to his unbelievable draw that
Speaker 1: a nineteen year old girl is begging her mom to
Speaker 1: take her to the Billy Joel concert. And I would
Speaker 1: love to go because he was one of my favorites
Speaker 1: coming up. So yes, we hope he recovers fully and
Speaker 1: is back on stage soon.
Speaker 3: All right, we'll stay with us here on this Tuesday morning.
Speaker 3: Ron When we come back, a man decides to take
Speaker 3: a sixty mile swim in the waters where Jaws lives.
Speaker 3: Also coming up the American Music Awards last night, and
Speaker 3: at the top of the show, you'll get a kiss.
Speaker 3: You'll get a kiss. You'll get a kiss. That's from
Speaker 3: j Lo. Also coke or pepsi? Pepsi ain't even in
Speaker 3: this conversation anymore. The next leg of our run maybe
Speaker 3: is a swim. A swim around Martha's vineyard. Yes, that
Speaker 3: is where a fifty five year old man became the
Speaker 3: first person ever to swim around the Massachusetts Island. He's
Speaker 3: an endurance athlete by the name of Lewis Pugh. He
Speaker 3: finished the sixty plus mile swim took him twelve days,
Speaker 3: finished on Memorial Day, and he had actually Ropes a
Speaker 3: mission in mind.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he said he wanted to raise awareness about the
Speaker 1: plight of sharks all time with the movie Jaws fiftieth
Speaker 1: anniversary that happens next month. Can you believe it came
Speaker 1: out June twentieth nineteen seventy five. Well Pugh began his
Speaker 1: swim at the Edgartown Lighthouse, which is the town where
Speaker 1: the film was originated from. Edgerton was depicted as Amity Island.
Speaker 2: But get this.
Speaker 1: He had to have safety personnel in a boat next
Speaker 1: to him with a shark shield device.
Speaker 3: Okay, you're gonna have to help me with this. The
Speaker 3: device created a low intensity electric field in the water
Speaker 3: to keep sharks away from pew without harming the sharks.
Speaker 3: Before he jumped in, he said, Jaws was a film
Speaker 3: about sharks attacking humans, and for fifty years we have
Speaker 3: been attacking sharks. It's madness. We need to respect them.
Speaker 3: Now if he's raising an issue about the plight of sharks,
Speaker 3: and they're not our enemy and they're are friends. But
Speaker 3: I'm going to swim around with the device to make
Speaker 3: sure these sharks don't hurt me.
Speaker 1: He added, I'm not saying that it's safe to swim
Speaker 1: with sharks. I'm not saying that it's safe to do
Speaker 1: what I'm doing. He actually said that, so it's kind
Speaker 1: of interesting. But he wants people not to look at
Speaker 1: them as villains.
Speaker 3: So don't jump in the water with a device to
Speaker 3: protect you from.
Speaker 2: Them, exactly.
Speaker 1: I thought when I saw that detail was kind of
Speaker 1: buried in some of the stories, like, wait, this is
Speaker 1: actually fairly significant. He actually had to do what he
Speaker 1: did with the device to keep the sharks away from him,
Speaker 1: which to me kind of disproves the point he's trying
Speaker 1: to make.
Speaker 3: Okay, we're laughing about this a little. And obviously you
Speaker 3: should not be in the water with a great white shark.
Speaker 3: Obviously you should.
Speaker 1: And by the way, you know that just like, was
Speaker 1: it a week or two ago they had the first
Speaker 1: sighting of They always have great whites in this area,
Speaker 1: but this one was a mammoth.
Speaker 2: I showed you the picture. I said, look at the
Speaker 2: photo that they just took.
Speaker 3: Look, we respect what this guy just did and to
Speaker 3: be able to do in sixty miles and the whole point.
Speaker 3: And I wouldn't have the nerve to get in there
Speaker 3: even with that device. But it's it's kind of counter
Speaker 3: into it if and it's kind of yes, it's not hypocritical,
Speaker 3: but it's it's.
Speaker 2: A little ironic. Let's just go with ironic.
Speaker 3: Okay. Still, the water was around forty seven degrees for
Speaker 3: his swim. He only wore shorts and goggles. He was
Speaker 3: didn't have some big protective suit that is coal, So
Speaker 3: I give him credit for that. And that was a
Speaker 3: northeaster so several dates.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you remember that it was freezing cold outside of
Speaker 1: the water, all right, he said, this is pretty remarkable.
Speaker 2: This was the most difficult swim of his career.
Speaker 1: And this is a guy who became the first athlete
Speaker 1: to swim across the North Pole and has completed a
Speaker 1: long distance swim in every single one of the world's oceans. Pugh, yes,
Speaker 1: hopes his swim will change the perception that sharks urvilliance. However,
Speaker 1: we have just laughed our way through that. Sorry, no,
Speaker 1: but this is actually he points us out, and this
Speaker 1: is something for shark level, sorry, shark lovers and animal
Speaker 1: lovers around the world to recognize. According to the American
Speaker 1: Association for the Advancement of Science, two hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: four thousand sharks are killed in the world every day.
Speaker 1: I can't get my head around that. That means one
Speaker 1: hundred million sharks are killed every year.
Speaker 2: That is certainly sad.
Speaker 3: They have used that statistic of her that absolutely for
Speaker 3: years and years and years, and no sharks overwhelmingly aren't
Speaker 3: killing and eating people year and year out. The numbers
Speaker 3: you can see around the world are in the single
Speaker 3: digits and sometimes under five. Year after year. We get that.
Speaker 3: And yes, it's important to make the point he's making.
Speaker 3: And maybe that detail we highlight. It was supposed to.
Speaker 2: Be buried, right, but I'm sorry I had to bring
Speaker 2: it up.
Speaker 3: It's important note to make. We will continue our run now,
Speaker 3: we'll get out of the water and we will head
Speaker 3: to the desert. In particular, we're gonna head to Vegas
Speaker 3: where j Lo kissed a girl and a boy on
Speaker 3: stage of the American Music Awards last night. Yeah, that
Speaker 3: is how the show started. The fifty first annual AMAS
Speaker 3: took place at the Fountain Blue and Las Vegas, with
Speaker 3: Jennifer Lopez serving as hosts, and she.
Speaker 1: Opened the show with a signature high octane j low
Speaker 1: performance of a medley of nominated songs.
Speaker 2: But she set the.
Speaker 1: Place and the Internet on fire when during one portion
Speaker 1: of the performance she locked lips with one of her
Speaker 1: male backup dancers and then immediately turned to kiss a
Speaker 1: female dancer. After j Loo's lessons in liplocking, they handed
Speaker 1: out some awards.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we got some awards to get to and
Speaker 3: no question, Billy Eilish the biggest winner of the night.
Speaker 3: She swept all seven categories she was nominated in, including
Speaker 3: Artist of the Year and Album of the Year. Other
Speaker 3: big winners Dan and Shay Favorite Country Group. This is
Speaker 3: the fifth time they won this award, sizz A Favorite
Speaker 3: Female Artist, Favorite Song for Saturn, Gracie Abrams, Best New.
Speaker 1: Artists, Yes, and some of the biggest named snubs Schaffel, Roon, Shaboozie,
Speaker 1: Sabrina Carpenter, they were all shut Al Carverenter was nominated
Speaker 1: in six categories and you know who else was shut out.
Speaker 1: This is a big headline Taylor Swift. For the first
Speaker 1: time since two thousand and seven, Taylor Swift did not
Speaker 1: win a single American Music Award. She was nominated in
Speaker 1: six categories and she was beaten by Billie Eilish in
Speaker 1: five of them.
Speaker 3: I put that in this snub category. But to think
Speaker 3: that she has gone twenty straight years almost winning an
Speaker 3: American Music award of some kind, that's pretty impressive from
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift. You know who else walked way short handed,
Speaker 3: but not empty handed. Kendrick Lamar shorthanded, way short handed.
Speaker 3: He entered the night with the most nominations of nominations
Speaker 3: of being the artist ten, but he ended up just
Speaker 3: with one win for a favorite hip hop song. I
Speaker 3: don't have to tell you.
Speaker 1: What it is.
Speaker 2: No wonder which one that was.
Speaker 3: But favorite hip Hop Artist and Favorite hip Hop Album
Speaker 3: went to eminem Now this is interesting, even his collaboration
Speaker 3: of the Year nomination with Sizza for that song Luca God.
Speaker 3: I love that song this World. It did not win, however,
Speaker 3: you'll be happy to know who beat them. Your other
Speaker 3: favorite song.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, guy with a smile, die with a smile. Yes, okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 2: I love that song.
Speaker 1: I can play that on repeat all day, all right.
Speaker 1: Other highlights Jenna Jackson performed on TV for the first
Speaker 1: time in seven years. She received an Icon Award, and
Speaker 1: Rod Stewart received a Lifetime Achievement Awards. And this is
Speaker 1: a cool award ceremony because this is about the fans
Speaker 1: and they're voting for their favorite artists.
Speaker 3: Sometimes when you scratch your head and go, hey, wait
Speaker 3: a minute, I don't agree with that, or that wasn't
Speaker 3: the biggest hit of the year, fans are voting for
Speaker 3: their favorite things, and this is what makes this one cool.
Speaker 3: The Wicket soundtrack was nominated as well. Muana iiO was
Speaker 3: competing in the same category for favorite Soundtrack. You know
Speaker 3: what one? Neither one of those two Arcane League of
Speaker 3: Legends Season two soundtrack. Huh exactly. This is an animated
Speaker 3: show on Netflix, okay, and his second season soundtrack one.
Speaker 3: This is a fan thing.
Speaker 2: The fans have spoken.
Speaker 3: They jumped in there and voted in there. You go. Well,
Speaker 3: let's talk about some wedding bells next. On this Run
Speaker 3: with Dimmi Lovato, thirty two year old singer Tied the
Speaker 3: Knot with singer songwriter thirty four year old Jordan Jutes
Speaker 3: Loots on Sunday. The two met working on Levato's latest album,
Speaker 3: which was in twenty twenty two. Beningay since December of
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three.
Speaker 1: And I love what Jutes had to say before the wedding,
Speaker 1: telling People magazine this about their long engagement. I just
Speaker 1: had to include this. Indulge me here for a bit,
Speaker 1: he said. I feel like a lot of weddings can
Speaker 1: be stressful and very quick, and so we're on it,
Speaker 1: but we're also taking our time and we're also just
Speaker 1: enjoying being engaged. We're not trying to skip engagement to
Speaker 1: get right to the wedding. We're basking in it and
Speaker 1: soaking it up. Will be married forever. We just want
Speaker 1: to enjoy every step. I love that we see so
Speaker 1: many people rushing. They just want the immediacy of like,
Speaker 1: now we're married, and it's like about the wedding. I
Speaker 1: love what he said that it was about enjoying the
Speaker 1: ride and knowing that it's gonna last forever, so.
Speaker 2: There's no rush.
Speaker 3: It's kind of cool to be engaged. Yeah, take a moment,
Speaker 3: take a beat, and everybody's when you're together, They say,
Speaker 3: when you're gonna get engaged, when you engage, when is
Speaker 3: the wedding? Can we take a beat and let me
Speaker 3: enjoy what's taking place? So good for him. I don't
Speaker 3: know this, young fellow, but I like what he said.
Speaker 3: There last leg of our run here, let's get it
Speaker 3: on rode. Just the long running, ongoing, an intense debate
Speaker 3: over with soda reigns supreme. And when you ask that question,
Speaker 3: everybody knows immediately coke or pepsi. You do the taste tests,
Speaker 3: the challenge all that well, perhaps Pepsi doesn't even belong
Speaker 3: in this conversation anymore. According to annual rankings of the
Speaker 3: best selling sodas in the.
Speaker 1: US, it's no surprise the Coca Cola is number one
Speaker 1: on the list and has been the perennial top soda
Speaker 1: in the US for I don't even know how long,
Speaker 1: probably since the time they started doing this, right, But
Speaker 1: naturally you would assume that pepsi is number two on
Speaker 1: the list. But guess what, it's not number two. And
Speaker 1: now it's not even number three. Pepsi was passed last
Speaker 1: year for the number two spot by Wow. This was
Speaker 1: my childhood favorite, doctor Pepa, as you like to say,
Speaker 1: doctor Pepper.
Speaker 2: And now this year pepsi has dropped even further. It's
Speaker 2: been surpassed for the number three spot by.
Speaker 3: Sprite's pepsis number four.
Speaker 2: I would never have guessed that there is no.
Speaker 3: Coke versus pepsi.
Speaker 4: Wow, there's coke versus doctor Pepa. There coke versus doctor Pea.
Speaker 4: There's pepsi versus nobody. Pepsi now sits at number four
Speaker 4: on the list. Here's the list in order, Coke, doctor Pepper, Sprite, Pepsi,
Speaker 4: Diet Coke at number five. Then mountain do cox. I
Speaker 4: shouldn't have said it like that could not be.
Speaker 1: It's just with the extra caffeination and sugar that we
Speaker 1: all know is in that beautifully bright yellow drink.
Speaker 3: I apologize. I editorialized a little bit there on mountain dew,
Speaker 3: then coke zero, and then diet pepsi and Fanta, and
Speaker 3: then Canadian dry ginger Ale is number ten on the list.
Speaker 3: I get good stuff.
Speaker 2: Diet coke would be my number one, like without a doubt.
Speaker 3: And you know I don't drink popa, Yes, I drink
Speaker 3: the other stuff. The survey also show the most popular
Speaker 3: types of drinks, so sodas aren't even the number one drink.
Speaker 3: Our number one drink here in the US bottled water.
Speaker 3: I guess that makes sense.
Speaker 2: That's awesome number.
Speaker 3: One, then carbonated soda, and then after that number three,
Speaker 3: juices number four, Ready to drink tea, and then sports
Speaker 3: drinks five, and energy.
Speaker 1: Drinks are six, and then ready to drink coffee is
Speaker 1: only seven.
Speaker 2: I don't what is ready to drink coffee.
Speaker 3: That's stuff we have in the refrigerator right now, that stuff.
Speaker 2: Right, oh yeah, maybe yes, I have some ice coffee. Yes,
Speaker 2: that makes sense.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well, at least my nice takeaway is
Speaker 1: that more Americans are drinking bottle. That's good to know.
Speaker 1: All right, we'd like to leave you today with something
Speaker 1: to think about as you go about your day. Here
Speaker 1: is your quote of the day.
Speaker 3: Everybody in the morning, Instead of saying to yourself, I
Speaker 3: got to wake up, say I get to wake up?
Speaker 3: That quote, uh Robes, you tracked down today from miss Erica.
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm amazing singer and songwriter. But I just thought
Speaker 1: that was so cool. I was trying to everyone.
Speaker 2: Might need a little extra motivation today.
Speaker 1: It's, you know, the day after the long holiday weekend,
Speaker 1: and if you were lucky enough not to work, you
Speaker 1: might be.
Speaker 2: Going, oh my alarm.
Speaker 1: Oh And I just thought this was such a nice
Speaker 1: way to turn it around when you feel yourself saying
Speaker 1: something like.
Speaker 2: I gotta wake up, say I get to wake up.
Speaker 1: And with that, we hope that gets your Tuesday jump started. Everybody,
Speaker 1: thanks for running with us.
Speaker 3: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ.
Speaker 1: Holmes.
Speaker 3: We will see you back on the run tomorrow.
