This happened in Texas, which has been the 66 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: center of that growing outbreak. The Department of Health and 67 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: Human Services has confirmed that an unvaccinated eight year old 68 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 2: girl died after recently recently being diagnosed. 69 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: That's right.

The most 75 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: effective way to prevent the spread of measles is the 76 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: MMR vaccine. 77 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: Now, in addition to the deaths of two children, an 78 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: adult in neighboring New Mexico is also believed to have 79 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: died from measles this year. Are these are the first 80 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: deaths from measles in this country in over a decade. 81 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: The outbreak in Texas has infected nearly five hundred people 82 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: so far. 83 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was even a fourteen percent jump in cases 84 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: in just this past week, and that included six infants 85 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: and toddlers who all tested positive at a day care 86 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: center in Lubbock. So the situation there is not over 87 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: and unfortunately is worsening. 88 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: And the next leg of our run now takes us 89 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 2: to Washington, DC, and the White House is defending Trump's 90 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: tariffs on US trading partners. After his ten percent tariff 91 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 2: on all US imports went into effect over the weekend. 92 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: The Trump administration saying more than fifty countries have reached 93 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: out to the President to try and negotiate a deal 94 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: ahead of the next looming deadline. The larger individual tariffs 95 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: on countries goes into effect this Wednesday. 96 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: The White House says countries are coming to the table 97 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: because they understand they bear a lot of the tariffs. Here. 98 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 2: Trump has imposed tariffs that are essentially half of what 99 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: each country charges the US. Trump says he wants to 100 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: even He wants actually to even the US trading deficit, 101 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: but critics say he's just creating an unnecessary trade war 102 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 2: that continues to esc and is going to lead to 103 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 2: higher prices that are going to be passed on to 104 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: you the consumer. 105 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: Next up on our run, Netanyahu is becoming a regular. 106 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: The Israeli Prime Minister is expected to meet with President 107 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: Trump at the White House today. 108 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: He was just there though at the White House in 109 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 2: early February. He was actually the first foreign leader to 110 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: meet with President Trump after his election. Nen Yahoo is 111 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: now expected to be the first foreign leader to negotiate 112 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 2: or plead with Trump face to face over the new tariffs. 113 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: Yes, Israel has been slapped with a seventeen percent reciprocal 114 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: tariff as part of Trump's Liberation Day tariffs, which again 115 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: apply to all US trade partners, and of course expect 116 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: the Israel Gaza war to be on the agenda between 117 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: the two leaders today. 118 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 2: Right continuing on our Monday morning run now, in a 119 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: deal to save TikTok apparently was in place last week, 120 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: but reportedly it all fell apart because of Trump's tariffs. 121 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 2: The administration had been working, as you might know, to 122 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 2: find US investors to take over TikTok. 123 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: Bye law, the app cannot have China based owners, and 124 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: it was facing that Saturday deadline to find US owners 125 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: or the app would possibly go dark here in the 126 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: United States. Well, President Trump said he believed they'd have 127 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: a deal in place in time, but the Associated Press 128 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: is now reporting that deal was in fact in the works, 129 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: but China pumped the brakes on moving forward after Trump 130 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:25,119 Speaker 1: announced his Liberation Day tariffs. On all trade partners, including China. 131 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so China was hit with a thirty four percent tariff. 132 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 2: They ended up hitting the US with a retaliatory tariff 133 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 2: as well. So now there's another seventy five day reprieve 134 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: for TikTok and it's one hundred and seventy million US users, 135 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 2: So it's encouraging that something was being done. It looked 136 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 2: like there might have been a deal in place. Too 137 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 2: bad that the tariffs through everything off. So, oh, your 138 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: TikTok users here you are again. 139 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: No certainty, Yeah, but a seventy five day reprieve and 140 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: continuing our tariff flock here on the morning run. Next 141 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: up on the run, markets around the world continue to 142 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: react sharply and negatively to President Trump's new tariffs. Asian 143 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: and European markets all took a dive at their openings today, 144 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 1: dropping between five and ten percent in most cases, and 145 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: that certainly is significant. 146 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: Embrace yourself, folks, because as of this recording, US stock 147 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: futures are down significantly. They are signaling that we could 148 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 2: be in for another brutal day on Wall Street when 149 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 2: those markets to officially open at nine thirty am Eastern time. 150 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: We will continue here on our run and head over 151 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: to Rome. And look who showed up at Saint Peter Square. 152 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: What a moment, what a sight, and what a big 153 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: surprise for the faithful to see Pope Francis yesterday make 154 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: an unannounced appearance at the Vatican. This is the first 155 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: time we've seen him since he left the hospital two 156 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: weeks ago. 157 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was in a wheelchair, but he was smiling 158 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: at times, he was waving at times. He was wearing 159 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: an apparatus also that helped him breathe. But we saw 160 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: him when he left the hospital a couple of weeks ago, 161 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: and he did he raised his arm a little bit 162 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: and waved, had a little smile. He clearly was a 163 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: little more mobile and looked in better shape this time around. 164 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 2: Said a few words to the crowd, but very significant words. 165 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 2: He said happy Sunday, and he also said thank you 166 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 2: to the rest on. 167 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: The eighty eight year old spent more than a month 168 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: in the hospital after bronchitis turned into double pneumonia. His 169 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: doctors only revealed last night that the pontiff came on 170 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: two occasions, came close to death. But certainly good to 171 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: see him not only out of the hospital but smiling 172 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,239 Speaker 1: and waving and speaking it's all good news. 173 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: Yes, that was a surprise of appearance that we've been 174 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 2: talking about. We talked about the Pope every single day here, 175 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: it's well, yeah, for a full month. Yeah, because he 176 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 2: was in the hospital and we kept saying, man, what 177 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 2: a sight when he gets out of the hospital, What 178 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 2: a sight when he goes back. And that was the 179 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: sight that many people didn't even think we would ever 180 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: get to see. Well, stay with us here on this 181 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 2: Monday Morning, Ron, when we come back, a much needed 182 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 2: boost for the box office, and it came courtesy of Minecraft. 183 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 2: And then we could not believe what we were seeing 184 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: in the Women's National Championship game yesterday. And then we 185 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: saw something last night a lot of people thought we 186 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 2: would never see. But this was an hockey The next 187 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: leg of our Monday Morning Ron takes us to Hollywood 188 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: as we continue now, and a big sigh of relief 189 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: in Hollywood as a Minecraft movie unexpectedly breaks a major 190 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 2: dry spell and did it in a major way. 191 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. The film was only expected to gross around sixty 192 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: million dollars on its opening weekend, but instead it officially 193 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: marked the biggest opening weekend of the year. Grossing one 194 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty seven million dollars domestically. A lot of 195 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: experts believe this could be because college students and teenagers 196 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: were on spring break this weekend and that boosted sales 197 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: certainly in some markets, but they also say it was 198 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: word of mouth. It's spread very quickly online. People loved 199 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: this movie. 200 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've seen some recent hits when it comes to 201 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: video game movies. There was Five Nights at Freddy's and 202 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 2: then of course you had Super Mario Brothers that did 203 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: gangbusters at the box office. But this movie, now a 204 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 2: Minecraft movie, is the biggest domestic opening weekend ever or 205 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: the genre. The movie significantly helped box office numbers, which 206 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 2: were down thirteen percent so far this year, so the 207 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: industry is getting a much needed boost. This is one 208 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 2: that's not necessarily the kids playing Minecraft. But this wasn't 209 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 2: necessarily on our radar to go watch. But now I'm 210 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 2: curious interesting. 211 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, so good for them, and certainly they all the 212 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: movie experts said they were concerned after March's numbers. They 213 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: were so bad. So this movie did a lot to 214 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: give the industry some relief, thinking, Okay, people will go 215 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: to the movie theaters just for the right movie. All Right, 216 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: next up on our run. A new record was set 217 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: last night in the National Hockey League, and it was 218 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: a record that stood for thirty one years and one 219 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: that many thought would never be broken. 220 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 2: Alex Ovechkin has now surpassed the great one, Wayne Gretzky 221 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: to become the all time scoring leader in hockey a 222 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: Vetchkin scored goal number eight hundred and ninety five last 223 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 2: night against the New York Islanders and was immediately mobbed 224 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 2: by his teammate. The game stopped for a ceremony that 225 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: included speeches, tears, presentations. Gretzki himself was there, but the 226 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 2: I think I'll have to start all this off. After 227 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: he made the goal, he looked like a kid in 228 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: the front yard on a slipping slide. He just went 229 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 2: did a big old belly flop. It's just cool to 230 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: see a grown man have that kind of joy and 231 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 2: playing a game. It was cool. I hear you. 232 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: That is very cool. Ivechkin had been in the NHL 233 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: for twenty years, all of them with the same team, 234 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: the Washington Capitals. He's been MVP. He's led the Capitals 235 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 1: to their first championship. That happened in twenty eighteen. 236 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: A weird stat. 237 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is okay, this is an interesting stat. This 238 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: was Avenchkin's one wait, one four hundred and eighty seventh game. 239 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: Gretzky's record was set after one thy four hundred and 240 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: eighty seven games. 241 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 2: That is weird that happened. But they have been watching 242 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: this for the past several games, so the commissioner and 243 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: Gretzky have been traveling around. You have to be there 244 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: in case he breaks it, so they were there for 245 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: this one last night. His family is boy, it was 246 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 2: just a wonderful moment. They lost the game. Who cares? 247 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: Who cares? And it was cool the Kretzky's there. I mean, look, 248 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: it's not something that you probably are excited about someone 249 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: breaking your record, but it was cool that he was 250 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 1: there to help him celebrate and to honor him. 251 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: Those guys have been good athletes. Kareem was there for 252 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 2: Lebron setting the scoring record, and you see this these guys. Yeah, 253 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: you know, none of these guys want their records broken. 254 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: What is the part of history? Yo it to the game. 255 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: We would continue here next up on this morning's run. 256 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: This leg of our run takes us to Tampa where 257 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 2: the women's National Championship game was played yesterday, and it 258 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 2: wasn't down to the wire. It wasn't even close. It 259 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 2: wasn't even competitive for the most part. But still it 260 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 2: was impressive to watch. 261 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: You always say this about the women's games, that it's 262 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: just a beautiful game to watch. The Yukon Huskies thoroughly 263 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: and masterfully dismantled the South Carolina game Cocks eighty two 264 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: to fifty nine. So yeah, they won by twenty three points. 265 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: That is the third largest blowout in championship game history. 266 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: That's not one you want to be on the other 267 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: side of. Right, only behind Yukon on. 268 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 2: The list, Yeah, the only This is the third largest 269 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 2: blowout in championship game history. The other two biggest blowouts 270 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 2: were done by Yukon. They did it to somebody. This 271 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: is an unbelievable franchise, if you will. At this point, 272 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: Yukon has been to sixteen of the last seventeen final fours. 273 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 2: This is their twelfth championship. It's their first championship though 274 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 2: since twenty sixteen for them, that seems like a drought. 275 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: Everybody's like, what's happening to the program. They haven't won 276 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: one in nine years, but here they are and you 277 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: watch this entire game with me as well, even though 278 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 2: it wasn't competitive kinetic, they look unbelievable and Paige Becker's 279 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 2: congratulates to her finally getting a championship. But our favorite 280 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: Aisy Fudd, Yes, Azy Fudd was the most outstanding player 281 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: of the final four. So just another impressive run by 282 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 2: these women. They run well. 283 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: It was very fun to watch, and that's it's interesting 284 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: for me to say, who I haven't normally watched women's basketball, 285 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: and also to watch a blowout and yet to have 286 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: it still be in a containing. It was really fun 287 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: watching you enjoying the game too, like that was part 288 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: of the fun, all right. So the men's championship game 289 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: is going to be played tonight, and to the shock 290 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: of a lot of people, including me, Duke ain't in 291 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: it after an absolutely stunning meltown Saturday in its final 292 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: four matchup against Houston. 293 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 2: So you would have been justified if you were like 294 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 2: roboch on Saturday night, Duke was up by fourteen points, 295 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 2: it was eight minutes to play. They seemed to be 296 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 2: in command. She called it a night. A lot of 297 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 2: people did, and then Duke was up by nine points 298 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: with just three minutes to play, and yes, they lost. 299 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:37,479 Speaker 2: Houston scored nine points in the final thirty five seconds 300 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 2: of that game. They capitalized on Duke's mishaps, some fouls, mishots, 301 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 2: and turnovers. So now Houston is going to play Florida tonight. 302 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: Florida had its own the Thriller against Auburn on on Saturday. 303 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: The game is at eight fifty Eastern time tonight on 304 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 2: c b S. But don't stop watching, folks, you might 305 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 2: miss it. 306 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: I know that I won't. I learned my lesson, but 307 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: it was really late, like it was almost midnight. In 308 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: de of my decision, I say this all the time. 309 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: You can't because you miss history, lose a little sleep. 310 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 2: But something happened on Saturday night that you will never 311 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 2: see again. I'm glad you got that extra thirty minutes. 312 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 2: But folks, as you go about your day to day 313 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 2: getting started on this Monday, something we'd like for you 314 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: to consider it is our quote of the day. 315 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: Yes, fear has two meanings forget everything and run, or 316 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: face everything and rise. The choice is yours. I love 317 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: that we're ruled so often by fear. If you think 318 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: about it, so I just like turning fea r on 319 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: its head and to face everything and rise. 320 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 2: Forget everything and run sounds funny, though I'm picturing somebody. 321 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: I think you really do that. When you have fear, 322 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 2: you forget everything and run. 323 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: I mean run away from the problem, run away from 324 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: the person, run away from the experience. I think a 325 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: lot of folks do that. 326 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 2: It sounds so pathetic that nobody wants to be that 327 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 2: forget everything and run. That's not me. 328 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: Well if you tell yourself that right when you're feeling fearful, 329 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: do I want to do this? Hell no, I don't 330 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: want to do this. I want to face everything and rise. 331 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: So let's do that on this Monday.
