4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. And as we

5
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 2: are starting this recording, the President is arriving in Switzerland.

6
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: Big speech expected there in the coming hours, but he's

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: arriving a little late.

8
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 3: Not his fault, Nope, had nothing to do with him.

9
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 2: Yes, we've all had these issues. He did have some

10
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 2: plain issues. We will get into and explain that. But

11
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 2: as we are talking right now, we're looking at live

12
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: picture of the President just touching down in Switzerland. Big

13
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: speech there that we'll be talking about this morning. As always,

00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,360

20
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: of updates from the President to Greenland, to the very

21
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 2: high profile trials.

22
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, we have had court trials on

23
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: multiple ones, competing trials as we've been watching throughout the day.

Speaker 2: they'll be coming to you. But on the morning run

29
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: this morning, it'll take us to the Twin Cities to Davos.

30
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: Of course, this run will also take us to court

31
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 2: rooms in Fairfax County, Virginia, as well as Albuquerque, New Mexico.

32
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: And we'll make a stop to the campus of Duke

33
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 2: University in Durham, North Carolina today. But yes, we have

34
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 2: to begin Rose, not on this leg of the run

35
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 2: on the road, but in the skies above Washington, d C.

36
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 2: Where there was absolutely initially a scary development.

37
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely, President Trump, as we mentioned, running behind schedule this morning. Yes,

38
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: he has made his way to the World Economic Forum

39
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: in Davos, Switzerland. He had a minor they call it

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: a minor electrical issue thirty forty five minutes into the flight,

41
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: so he had taken.

42
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: Off, was on route.

43
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: I think they took off just after nine thirty last evening,

44
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: but they had to turn all the way around, and

45
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: by the time they returned to Maryland it was already

46
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: eleven oh seven pm. They had to switch planes, get

47
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: the press core off the planes, get into a smaller plane.

48
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: That put him three hours behind schedule. That's significant, kind.

49
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 2: Of on Clinton time. Now, I'm kidding. We love for

50
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,679
Speaker 2: and Clinton, but he was famously known as being late

51
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 2: to a lot of things. But that was on him.

52
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 2: It was a mechanical issue. But the president is late

53
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: for what is anticipated a highly anticipated speech in which

54
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: he is going to speak. Of course, we expecting to

55
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 2: hear something about Greenland, but he's going to be making

56
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: this speech in a room full of people that he

57
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: has already challenged on the world stage when it comes

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: to Greenland. As we are watching this right now, folks,

59
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: literally we are seeing Michael Rubio, Carolyn Levitt, the White

60
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 2: House Chief of Staff. They're just exiting Air Force one

61
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 2: again a little delayed. We don't know if he'll still

62
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: make his scheduled eight thirty am Eastern time speech, but

63
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 2: he has made it. So keeping an eye on that today.

64
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: Also keeping an eye robes on the stock market. The

65
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 2: stock market took a hit yesterday and there is the President.

66
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,399
Speaker 2: As we speak, this seems weird. We're doing our old

67
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: TV thing right now, right, but we can't show you

68
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: the pictures.

69
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 3: We're just we're letting you know that we're on top

70
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 3: of things. We are watching.

71
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: Yes, the President make his way very carefully down the

72
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: steps of Air Force one. He's pointed out, of course,

73
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's missteps, so he is, I'm sure extra careful

74
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: when he makes these grand entrances and exits off the plane.

75
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 2: I'm surprised we don't see more presidents fall down those steps.

76
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: As much as they have to do it, they have

77
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 2: to do it with cameras rolling. He's making some comments.

78
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: He's again this is in Zurich, but he has to

79
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 2: make his way to Dabbos, where the meeting has happened.

80
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 2: He hopped out. It looks clearly cold as all get

81
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 2: out there, but do helica. He is moving really slowly.

82
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: He is wearing a long black trench coke, got a

83
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 2: scarf around his neck. But he is making his way

84
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: out to make that speech.

85
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: Yes, all right, so we will continue to follow that,

86
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,839
Speaker 1: bring you any new developments from Davos, Switzerland. But next

87
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: up on the run, we returned home and we mentioned

88
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: how cold it looks there in Switzerland. It feels like

89
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: Switzerland for a lot of the country. This arctic air

90
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: has moved in and it ain't going anywhere. As TJ wrote,

91
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: it's going to make it self comfortable through the weekend,

92
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: and we're all going to be uncomfortable because of it.

93
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: Most of the country is being impacted by this. I

94
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: hate this phrase, polar hortile. I hate it because I

95
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 1: know what it means. It means we don't leave the

96
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: apartment and I'm all getting cap and fever.

97
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: I thought you liked saying polar vortex.

98
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 3: It does have a nice ring to it, but I

99
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 3: don't like the impact of it.

100
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 2: I'm an atmospheric river guy again, devastating. I'm just saying

101
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: it's a fascinating meteorological phenomenon.

102
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly.

103
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: So anyway, if you're wondering what a polar vortex is,

104
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: feel self explanatory. But it's a huge mass of revolving

105
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: Arctic air that makes its way down from Canada and

106
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: nips into our country.

107
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 2: So, folks, everybody, it feels like, is being impacted by

108
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: this thing. But you go from the middle of the

109
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 2: country all the way east and that's everybody being impacted.

110
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: You're talking about hundreds of millions of Americans. But the Midwest,

111
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 2: mid Atlantic, the South, Upper Midwest, the plains all getting

112
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,559
Speaker 2: hit with below freezing temperatures. The wind chills are down

113
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 2: below zero in some places up to we're talking thirty

114
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: below now, as far as the East Coast goes, most

115
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 2: cities are not going to make it out of the

116
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 2: twenties in the coming days.

117
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: Yes, and we keep hearing all of these warnings from

118
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: our local meteorologist about a blizzard or an impactful storm

119
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 1: this weekend. But we are knowing that we all know

120
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: that there is lake effects now on its way to

121
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: the upper Midwest. They're saying up to another foot or two.

122
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 1: They're not measuring it in inches, they're measuring it in feet,

123
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: and they say that's coming in the next couple of days.

124
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: And I believe that maybe our way as well. Dallas, Atlanta,

125
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 1: parts of Alabama, parts of Mississippi all below freezing. This

126
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: is unheard of. This could affect a lot of crops,

127
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: a lot of I mean, and they don't these cities don't.

128
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 2: Have don't do this.

129
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 3: They don't have salt trucks.

130
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: They don't have ways to deal with any sort of

131
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: freezing temperatures, ice, any potential freezing precipitation. We know, we

132
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: lived in the South. We know it's it's an event

133
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: when it gets this cold.

134
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 3: People don't know what to do.

135
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 2: What year was it Atlanta got an inch and a

136
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 2: half of snow in the city shut down. Do you

137
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: remember that?

138
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 3: Yes, this is recent, but when we moved.

139
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 1: I moved my family moved from Saint Louis, Missouri, to

140
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: Atlanta in eighty five, eighty six, and I remember we

141
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: were laughing because we used to get blizzards obviously in

142
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: the Midwest, and when we moved to Atlanta, I.

143
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 3: Think it was eighty five. It was snow jam. Eighty five,

144
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 3: Snow's coming.

145
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: It was an inch. The entire city school was canceled.

146
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: We were all laughing.

147
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: I remember at the time Atlanta said they had I

148
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: think three snowplows or something. It seems crazy that a

149
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: major metropolitan area, but they had so few it was

150
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: pretty absurd. All right, we'll contink you here on this Wednesday,

151
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: right hump day run and we will head out to

152
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 2: New Mexico, and actor Timothy Bussville is going to get

153
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: to go home He's been held in Albuquerque since turning

154
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: himself in last week to face two counts of improper

155
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: contact with a minor.

156
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: Those allegations stemmed from twin boys who worked with him

157
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: on a show he directed the cleaning lady and they claimed, yes,

158
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: he tickled them, but then they say he touched him

159
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: in inappropriate areas. So he had a pre trial detention

160
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: hearing because the prosecutors wanted him to stay behind bars,

161
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: calling him dangerous and a threat to the community that

162
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: could not be contained with any any measures taking place

163
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: if he were to be released, but the judge disagreed.

164
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: There were so many supporters there for Timothy Busfield. His

165
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: wife Melissa Gilbert was there in the courtroom and was

166
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: very emotional, tears of joy and he when the judge

167
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: said that he was going to release him on his

168
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: own recognisance. But yes, the prosecutions the States asked to

169
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: have him stay behind bars, was denied by that judge.

170
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: He let him out some conditions. He can't be around

171
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 2: child unsupervised. He can travel, but he's being released on

172
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: his own recognisance. Did not require him to put up

173
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 2: any bails. Continuing on the run here now the prosecution

174
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: has rested. The defense begins its case today in the

175
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 2: so called O pair affair double murder trial.

176
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 3: Yes, this will be interesting.

177
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: We hope you know by now, if you've been listening

178
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: to our feeds, you know that Brendan Banfield is accused

179
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: of killing his wife and another man who he planned

180
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: to frame for her murder. The prosecution claims he planned

181
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: this with his O pair, who he was having an

182
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: affair with. The prosecution's case took about a week, and

183
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 1: the O pair, of course, notably went on the stand.

184
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: That is their key witness, that is truly the cornerstone

185
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: of their case. But the defense will call its first

186
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: witnesses today.

187
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, we anticipated witnesses. I haven't seen the witness list.

188
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: Always the question of if the defendant is going to testify,

189
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 2: Every defense attorney will tell you no, but you no, no, no,

190
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 2: So we'll keep an eye on.

191
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 3: It's so funny.

192
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: It almost never happens. And yet every time there's a trial,

193
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: will he or won't he? Or will she or won't she?

194
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 3: Testify?

195
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: And I feel like every single time it's a hard

196
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 1: now always, but we always love to wonder what if

197
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: would not be salacious? Sure, but it almost never happens

198
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: all right, but we will keep our eye on that trial.

199
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, the DOJ is following through

200
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: with its threats to go after a Minnesota officials the

201
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: administration has publicly suggested are part of a conspiracy to

202
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: obstruct ice operations in that state. So they have issued

203
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: subpoenas for at least five officials. We're talking about Minneapolis

204
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: Mayor Jacob Frye, We're talking about Governor Tim Waltz, A G.

205
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: Keith Ellison, and the Saint Paul Mayer as well. These

206
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: officials bring it on, we will not be intimidated. And

207
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: so that is a significant development to consider that these

208
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: folks who are running the state of Minnesota potentially are

209
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: facing criminal charge.

210
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: It's an escalation. It's going in the wrong direction. Continuing

211
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: here now more news out of Minneapolis. They're getting a

212
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 2: high profile visitor tomorrow. Vice President Jade Vance expected to

213
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 2: head to Minneapolis tomorrow, going to hold a round table

214
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 2: with members of that community. Notable somebody this high up

215
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 2: from the administration going, but also notable that he is

216
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 2: the one who came out very early on and some

217
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 2: interpret it as him blaming Renee Good for her own death.

218
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 2: But he did say it was a tragedy of her

219
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: own making. So interesting to see how he will be

220
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: received there in Minneapolis.

221
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean it seems like he clearly was blaming

222
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: the victim there, So that will be very interesting and

223
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: we will keep our eye on that. But next up

224
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: on the Run, we might be about to lose our

225
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: designation as a measles free country. We talked about this

226
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: on the Morning Run a month or so ago when

227
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: Canada law its status, and we certainly seem to be

228
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: headed in that direction. And yes, we were certified measles

229
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: free for twenty six straight years.

230
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 3: Vaccines are a huge part of this.

231
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I didn't think this was a thing we

232
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 2: were still dealing with or it would come back, But

233
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 2: it has come back and there are reasons for that.

234
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 2: So measles free designation, we've had it with twenty five

235
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: plus years. What does that mean. It means is there's

236
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 2: no single chain spread for twelve months. To make that

237
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 2: make sense, you remember we were here a year ago

238
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 2: talking about the outbreak in Texas.

239
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 1: YEP.

240
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 2: So now we have current outbreaks going on still in Utah, Arizona,

241
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 2: South Carolina. If they're able to find a way to

242
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: say that Texas outbreak is some way connected to the

243
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 2: other outtame strain. Basically that means boom. Then that's twelve

244
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 2: months and we are losing our designation.

245
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 3: Man, And you mentioned South Carolina.

246
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 1: They just announced that they have eighty eight new cases

247
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: as of yesterday. Five hundred and thirty eight folks are

248
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: in quarantine right now. Fifteen schools have kids in quarantine.

249
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 1: And yes, I mentioned it at the beginning of this,

250
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: but lower vaccine rates are to blame. They say, if

251
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: you dip below a certain percentage, and even if it's

252
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: I think it's ninety percent.

253
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 2: Hi, it's surprising.

254
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you'd think, oh, ninety percent vaccinated, we're good. No,

255
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: I think it has to be like ninety three or

256
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: ninety four percent. There's some actual statistic number where people

257
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: who study this. No, that's when we're safe when you

258
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: dip below that in some of these communities.

259
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 3: And we're seeing this more and more.

260
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: Of course, with rfk's RFK Junior's initiative about questioning vaccines

261
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: and their safety, this is unfortunately going in the wrong

262
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: direction for people who study diseases like this, and certainly

263
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: it's a big concern for a lot of folks.

264
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 2: All right, folks, will stay with us here on this

265
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: Wednesday morning run. When we come back, a kid wants

266
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: to leave college. He wants to leave Duke Duke is

267
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 2: suing to keep him in college. We'll explain. Also, we

268
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 2: got some more Jdvans news. Well it's really news about

269
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: Jdvans and his wife.

270
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: Stay here, Welcome back everybody to your Wednesday morning run.

271
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: And next up on the run, a college quarterback is

272
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: being sued by his own school. Yes, we're talking about

273
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: Duke University versus Darien Mensa. Mensa led them to the

274
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: conference title and they do not want to lose.

275
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: Him because they haven't won a conference title outright since

276
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 2: like the nineteen sixties. So they finally won one. And

277
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 2: what happens the quarterback. Yeah, I'm good, I've led this team.

278
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 2: I should go to a bigger football school than Duke.

279
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 2: This is a basketball school. Okay, fine, he made that calculation.

280
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 2: He wants to transfer, made the announcement already. The problem

281
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 2: is that he has signed a lucrative name image and

282
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 2: like this deal yes and nil deal with Duke that

283
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 2: runs through the end of next season. Duke is taking

284
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 2: a stand and saying, this kid is acting like he

285
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 2: has no oblome gation. The Duke University this is where

286
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 2: we are. We're going to see this more. We've seen

287
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 2: this a couple of times already in colleges. But he

288
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 2: signed a deal that's worth four million dollars a year.

289
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 3: Do you see my jaw drop? Look?

290
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: I know that this is all new college students, college

291
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: athletes being able to accept money, endorsements, et cetera.

292
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 3: But I didn't realize a college kid getting four million

293
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 3: dollars a year.

294
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 2: The stud quarterbacks, no doubt, are making that money, and

295
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: you are signing professional contracts. And now they are treating

296
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 2: him like a professional as they signed a deal here,

297
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 2: it is you need to stay here. He's made a calculation.

298
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 2: He could probably go make money at a bigger football school.

299
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: In particular Miami is where they say he's dyeing because

300
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 2: Carson Carson Beck, he just has a role in all

301
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 2: of that way.

302
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: So Carson Beck is going out with an interception pass

303
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: that lost in the National Championships.

304
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: The breaks, Oh.

305
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: I'm not upset about it at all, But the question

306
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: is what do you think about him?

307
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 3: This mensa trying to get out of a contract he signed.

308
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: But this is the thing, this is where we're gonna

309
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: this is where we land. You don't want to be amateurs,

310
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: you want to be professionals. Fine, I think they should

311
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: be compensated. I think a kid making four million dollars

312
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 2: a year as a junior in college is problematic. But okay,

313
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: if I'm going to accept that, Okay, you signed it exactly, so, yes,

314
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: this is a professional organization. Now you signed a contract. Yes,

315
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: they sued their own quarterback. That's remarkable.

316
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 3: But I'm curious.

317
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 1: So if they win, right and he has to stay,

318
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: how's that going to work on the field.

319
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 2: He's gonna have to concede, and somebody's gonna have to

320
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 2: get in his ear and say, yes, you need to

321
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: do this. And he is going to want to increase

322
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 2: his NFL stock so he'll go play. Be fine. There'll

323
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 2: be some hurt feelings, but they need to.

324
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that seems like the right thing to do,

325
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: which is to say no, you need to honor your contract,

326
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: because every kid is going to do that exactly. Every

327
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: kid gets recruited. Now it's not just okay, where can

328
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: I who's going to be your special teams coach?

329
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 2: No's how much money can I make?

330
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, show.

331
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: Me the money.

332
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: So this is yeah, I do too, because because that's

333
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: part of the reason why we love college sports. There

334
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: is a joy to the playing. It's not necessarily just

335
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: for money. It's for team, it's for school spirit. It's yeah,

336
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: it's that team mentality versus how much money can I get?

337
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: Oh well, these are the these are the days that

338
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: we're living in now, all right, but let's move on

339
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: to happier news. On the final leg of our run,

340
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: Jade Vans making history, or maybe more so his wife

341
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: is He and his wife Usha are having a baby.

342
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: This is very exciting news.

343
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 2: This is we just don't see this.

344
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 3: It's the first time ever a second lady has been pregnant.

345
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 2: Pregnant, yeah, because usually they're past the child.

346
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 3: I mean she is forty. I mean that is of note.

347
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 2: What do they say there was a word? I mean,

348
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,119
Speaker 2: doctors will tell you after thirty.

349
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: Thirty five it's a geriatric pregnancy and it's a high

350
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: risk pregnancy. After the age of thirty five, you are

351
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: instead to jerry atric pregnancy, which is a horrible term.

352
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 2: But yes, it is so cool to see. But they

353
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 2: have very young kids. Eight, five and four, two boys

354
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 2: and one girl right now, But I didn't see that

355
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 2: she happened.

356
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 3: It's a boy in July. Do in July.

357
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,479
Speaker 1: And this is so cool because I was fascinated by

358
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: the fact that she's the first second lady to ever

359
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: be pregnant or have a baby in the White House.

360
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: And you have to go back like this is crazy

361
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:33,239
Speaker 1: to the eighteen hundreds es Grover Cleveland is the his

362
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 1: wife was the only first lady to ever have a

363
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: baby in the White House. Yes, our politicians want to

364
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: get to that level, tend to be much older. And

365
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: you know, Jackie, Oh, that was the other thing. She

366
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: did have a baby, but sadly Patrick I believe was

367
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: the name of the baby. But the baby died a

368
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: few days later, I believe. So she was the only

369
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: other first lady to have had ad a baby.

370
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 2: I just think that's really cool to see that at

371
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 2: the White House. I'm always excited about birthing kids.

372
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 3: And yeah, Carolyn Levitt's pregnant.

373
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: This is just she's doing. May Usha's due in July.

374
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: There is a lot to celebrate. No matter what you

375
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 1: think politics acide. This is a beautiful, wonderful, happy, exciting

376
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: story all.

377
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 2: Well, before we let you go on this Wednesday, something

378
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 2: we would like for you to consider it is our

379
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 2: quote of the day. This is what I have for

380
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 2: you today, Ropes quote. If everyone around you is singing

381
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 2: your praises, you might be surrounded by enemies. You need

382
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 2: people who love you enough to tell you you're screwing up. Now,

383
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 2: there are a couple of ways to take that, but

384
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 2: it's a nice reminder sometimes. Always tell folks that if

385
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 2: you're the most successful one in your group, you need

386
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 2: a new friend group. If nobody's criticizing you, you are

387
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 2: surrounded by enemies who are just waiting. You gotta have

388
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 2: and you gotta give them the right and they have

389
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,239
Speaker 2: to know that they can tell you, hey, stop doing that,

390
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 2: you're screwing up, and you have to listen. That's love,

391
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 2: that's friendship, and that's how close you.

392
00:18:58,359 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 3: Need to be to somebody, you know.

393
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: People don't think about that very often, and people are

394
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 1: conflict of voids, I think a lot of times. But

395
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: if you think about the people who you're most honest with,

396
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: it's the people you love the most. Your partner, your spouse,

397
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: maybe your children for sure, but you love them enough

398
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: to try and guide them or at least let them

399
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: know when they're off path.

400
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 3: That does make a lot of sense.

401
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 2: So just a little reminder sometimes about who's around you

402
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 2: and what they're doing around you. But your quote of

403
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 2: the day, folks, if everyone around you is singing your praise,

404
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: as you might be surrounded by enemies, you need people

405
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 2: who love you enough to tell you you are screwing up.

406
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 3: Dare I ask where you got that?

407
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 2: I didn't. I'm not sure you know what I'll tell

408
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 2: you know, I'll be honest with you all online. I've

409
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: been doing the quotes here past couple of months now,

410
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 2: and I have just piles and piles of quotes I

411
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 2: just collect over the years. The last two weeks I've

412
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 2: rediscovered a file I had for a couple of commencement

413
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: speeches I gave years ago, and they are just chock

414
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 2: full of quotes. Yeah, so I've been playing. I've been

00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:04,280
