McGann, 78 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: according to police, attacked Clinton Brink first, and as that 79 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: attack was happening, Kristin ushered her children to safety before 80 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: then returning back to help her husband. She was then 81 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: killed as well. 82 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: You know, we a lot of folks speculated and just 83 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: wondered what happened there. I don't think this was a 84 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: scenario I considered when you think about how the attack 85 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: might have happened, But to think she because we wondered 86 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: how did the kids have the wherewithal to go? Find 87 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 2: someone or go find the visitor center. She got them 88 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 2: on their way and got them to safety and went back. 89 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: To go help her husband. 90 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. Other new details though, we heard, folks. 91 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 2: Police do say they found DNA at the scene and 92 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: it does match mcgans Also, they say one of the 93 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: witnesses told them that a man left the trail with 94 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 2: what appeared to be blood on his face, and that 95 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: man got into a car. That car was traced to 96 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: Springdale and that's how they ended up finding the suspect 97 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: arresting him at a barber shop. Police said they still 98 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: don't have a mode of no indication of any connection 99 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: of any kind between the suspect and the victims. This 100 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 2: appeared to be a totally random act and McGann has 101 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 2: no criminal history, had just moved to the area for 102 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 2: a new teaching gig, had passed several background checks in 103 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 2: school districts in Texas, Oklahoma, and now Arkansas. 104 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: Makes a teacher no sense at all, And I'm sure 105 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: more details will continue to emerge, but yes, that question 106 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: to why has not been answered.

I want to talk with people, and I 120 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 2: don't want it to be transactional where I'm asking for 121 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: their vote.

The book will 143 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: discuss how in tenths and short her campaign was after 144 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: President Biden abruptly stepped down as the Democratic nominee last summer. 145 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: News of her memoir was released hours before her appearance 146 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: on the Colbert Shore. So all well timed. 147 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: All right, we'll continue on the run here now with 148 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: President Trump. He made a few tariff tweaks. Yesterday signed 149 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: an executive order which adjusted previously announced tariffs on sixty 150 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 2: eight countries and the European Union. 151 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: Remember those Liberation Day tariffs announced back in April. They 152 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: were supposed to go into effect today August first. However, 153 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: with yesterday's executive order, those Liberation Day tariffs have been adjusted. Wow, 154 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: how many tariffs have been adjusted to all of them? 155 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: And then readjusted and then adjusted again. Well, a lot 156 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: of these adjustments have had those tariffs go down, and 157 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: that new rate will now take effect on August seventh. 158 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: Okay, so it'll see throws more uncertainty and move the 159 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: date back, and the markets reacted and the futures have 160 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 2: been down this morning at least. But certainty. We just 161 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: need certainty, So let's threw things back up in the air. 162 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: I mean what you say, say what you mean? 163 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 2: That's funny.

I want 174 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: to thank the good people of the Sunshine State for 175 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: killing me in the most cold, calculated, clean, humane, efficient 176 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: way possible. I have no complaints. He was pronounced dead 177 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: at six twelve pm. 178 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: Oh zach Zeuski was convicted and sentenced to death with 179 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: the nineteen ninety four machety killings of his wife and 180 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 2: their two young childs, and testimony the trial revealed after 181 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 2: his wife asked for a divorce, he told people he 182 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 2: would rather kill his family than have a divorce. Now, 183 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 2: Florida has carried out more executions this year than, of course, 184 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 2: it has ever had, but also than any other state 185 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 2: this year, including Texas. Texas has had four. South Carolina 186 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: has had four as well, and I believe the country 187 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 2: has as a whole somewhere around ten left to our schedule, 188 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 2: and this would end up being a big year, if 189 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: you will, for executions in this country. 190 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy to think that Florida has more than 191 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: doubled Texas and South Carolina all right. Next up on 192 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: the run, the three people in charge of emergency response 193 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: in Kirk County, Texas during last month's deadly flooding were 194 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: all out of pocket as that emergency unfolded. Two were 195 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: asleep and another was out of town at a lake house. 196 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. These were some pretty hard to hear revelations. They 197 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 2: came in a legislative hearing held in Kirk County yesterday. 198 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 2: The county's top of officials gave testimony about their response 199 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: to the two the disaster, which killed at least one 200 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty six people. The county emergency Management director, 201 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 2: guy named William Thomas, admitted that he was home sick 202 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 2: the day before the flood hit and didn't participate in 203 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: at least two emergency planning meetings that day leading up 204 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 2: to the night of the emergency. Yeah. 205 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: He says he was asleep during the emergency and was 206 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: alerted at five thirty am when his wife woke him 207 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: up to tell him that work called. The county sheriff 208 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: was also asleep and didn't wake up until they were 209 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: well into the emergency. And then the county judge, the 210 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: county executive, well, he was away at a lake and 211 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: also didn't wake up until about five thirty am. 212 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, And then they held this hearing. This was from 213 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 2: the Texas Legislature, but they actually went to Kerr County 214 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: and had the hearing there. So this was attended by 215 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: a lot of local folks who were impacted by the 216 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: response and to hear these are the three people in 217 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: charge and I mean one representative at some point, Am 218 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 2: I hearing you right? That the three people in charge 219 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: were essentially nowhere to be found. 220 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: It's unfortunate that it was on a holiday. People take 221 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: that opportunity either to go to a lake cast, to 222 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: sleep in, to not be as you know, you're not 223 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: looking at your phone, you're not worried about getting to work. 224 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: You're just you're in vacation mode. 225 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 2: And you know what They were challenged on that in 226 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: saying you knew before you went to bed what the 227 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: hell was coming and the possibility you stay just and 228 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: the purpose of this hearing was, of course to get 229 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: answers about what happened during the emergency response and how 230 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: to improve systems in the future. Stay with us here 231 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 2: on this Friday morning run. When we come back, Justin 232 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 2: Timberlake was considering ending his tour because he was in 233 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 2: so much pain. He now knows what was causing it. 234 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 2: And the White House is about to get a big, new, 235 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 2: beautiful ballroom. It's gonna cost two hundred million, but I'm 236 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: told you don't have to pay for it. 237 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: Before we go to break I have to tell you 238 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: about new leggings I've been living in lately. They're from 239 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: this brand called Tona and fun fact here they were 240 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: actually designed by the same visionary behind Lululemon, so from 241 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: that alone, you already know they're going to be pretty good. 242 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: These leggings feel like a second skin. They're super flattering, 243 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 1: super comfortable, and somehow still supportive. I've been wearing them 244 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: on my warning runs and they've quickly become my everyday 245 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: lounging leggings too.

Welcome back to this 253 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: Friday edition of our Morning Run and next up on 254 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: the Run Justin Timberlake just wrapped his two year world tour, 255 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: but he almost didn't make it to the end of 256 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: it because of health issues. Timberlake announcing on social media 257 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: that he was diagnosed with lime disease. 258 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. He said he was shocked when he first received 259 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: the diagnosis, but at least he could understand why he 260 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 2: was feeling massive amounts of nerve, pain, fatigue, sickness while 261 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: he had been performing. He said it was so difficult 262 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: he began to question whether he could actually continue performing. 263 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: Yes, Timberlake posted this, I was faced with a personal 264 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: decision stop touring. I decided the joy the performing brings 265 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. 266 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: I'm so glad I kept going. Timberlake said he decided 267 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: to share the news of his diagnosis in order to 268 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: be more transparent about my struggles so that they aren't misinterpreted. 269 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: Didn't I see somewhere he was being criticized for a performance. 270 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, lackluster performance. My parents saw him on this tour 271 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, and they said it was one of the 272 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: best shows they had ever seen. That it was my 273 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: mom and dad. First of all, I was laughing. Mom 274 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: and dad went to go see JT like. 275 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 2: The center stage right, so excited. 276 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: But yes, they said it was one of the best 277 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: shows they had ever seen. But maybe he was having 278 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: an off night. And it makes sense now given what 279 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: he was dealing with. 280 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 2: Isn't that something how we just well, what do I 281 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 2: always say? Give people a beat before you criticize. You 282 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 2: just don't know what people. 283 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: Are going It was probably miraculous that he was up 284 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: there performing at all, and he. 285 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 2: Was considering canceling, and he was ripped for perform good enough. 286 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: It wasn't exciting enough. It wasn't whatever they were. 287 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: Maybe I get it, and maybe he should have been 288 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 2: more transparent earlier. Maybe maybe, but just give people a 289 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: break sometimes. This ten time Grammy winner canceled postponed multiple 290 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 2: shows throughout the tour because of health issues. Lime disease 291 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: a reminder here is a bacterial infection transmitted by deer ticks. 292 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 2: Three stages of the disease, which can include flu like symptoms, 293 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 2: joint pain, fatigue, and other neurological and cardiac issues. When 294 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: caught early, it's successfully treated with antibiotics in most cases. 295 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: I know you won't be surprised to hear this, but 296 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: about five years ago, I too had a tickborn illness 297 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: and it's it's real. I mean I was fevers and aches. 298 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: I didn't know what was going on. I finally went 299 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: to the doctor and boila tickborn illness. Had to be 300 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: on antibiotics, but it did clear it up. 301 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 2: Where do you where do you get ticks? 302 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: Well? I got them covering hurricane in North Carolina. That's 303 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: you're out in the what I was out in floodwaters 304 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: and got some tics. It's I think it's called Rocky 305 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: Mountain fever down there in North Carolina. Wow, I feel you. 306 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: Jt all right. Timberlake ended his post by thanking his wife, 307 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: Jessica Biel and their two sons, saying, I love this. 308 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: Nothing is more powerful than your unconditional love. You are 309 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: my heart and my home. I'm on my way. 310 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: That's cute. 311 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: That was very cute. 312 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: But yeah, I hope he's doing better. His is on 313 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: his way, final leg of the run. Here. Now White 314 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 2: House gonna be on the construction for the next few years. 315 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: The Trump administration unveiled plans to build a new ninety 316 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 2: thousand square foot ballroom at the White House. 317 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: Wow, this is like the Gilded Age. 318 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: Yes, exactly what it's going to look like. 319 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: Right. Wow, Okay, nothing's being torn down. Rather, they're making 320 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: the addition to the east wing. President Trump has been 321 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: talking about this for years. The White House doesn't actually 322 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: have space for large events like state dinners. I did 323 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: not know that. I didn't know that when they need 324 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: to have those large events, they actually have to put 325 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: up tents next to the White House to accommodate a 326 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: larger number of guests. 327 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: So now for everybody say they didn't know that, now 328 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 2: it's going to make sense to you. When you ever 329 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: hear about a state dinner and you see the video 330 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 2: of people on the red carpet entering, there's a red 331 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 2: carpet and they're walking through a tent because they don't 332 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: have enough room at the actual White House to do it. 333 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 2: They literally have to have state dinners. 334 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: It's a big house. How do they not that's wild 335 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: to me. 336 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: Don't have enough space for it? Yes, doing this renovation now. 337 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: The new ballroom's going to hold six hundred and fifty guests. 338 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 2: Construction begins in September, is supposed to be done before 339 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 2: the president's term ends. This will be the first structural 340 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 2: addition to the White House since the Truman Balcony was 341 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 2: at it in nineteen forty eight. 342 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, the cost though out it's just a ballroom, two 343 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: hundred million, dollars. Who is paying you ask? That is unclear. 344 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: The White House has, the president and other donors are 345 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: committed to raising the money, and in great Trump fashion, 346 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: here was his quote. I love this. I'm good at 347 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: building things, and we're going to build quickly and on time. 348 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:35,919 Speaker 2: I kind of believe I kind of do too. 349 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: All right, Well, that'll be fun and exciting, and I'm 350 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: waiting for my invitation. It's actually terrazy picked out already, 351 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: you know. 352 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: But in all seriousness, the People's House probably needs that. Yeah, 353 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 2: we shouldn't. I'm not against it. A state dinner in 354 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 2: a tent. 355 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: That's not let's. 356 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 2: Stop doing no. 357 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: That doesn't show any kind of good representation of this country. 358 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 2: So all right, that's kind of cool. Before we let 359 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,959 Speaker 2: you go on this Friday, something we like for you 360 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: to consider it is our quote of the day. 361 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: This is actually something for you, I think if you're 362 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: gonna get why I pick this. Games are won by 363 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: players who focus on the playing field, not by those 364 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: whose eyes are glued to the scoreboard. I like that 365 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: because we're all looking for the outcome. We're all looking 366 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: to see did I win? Did I get it? Did 367 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: we are we there? Instead? Or maybe we're looking at 368 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: the clock or whatever. We're all focused on how we 369 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: measure our success. But if you actually just focus on 370 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: playing the game, that's how you really win. 371 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 2: Oh look at you, but I got nothing ad. 372 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: I thought it would be from a like a coach 373 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: or something, and I thought it was kind of cool 374 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 1: it was from Warren Buffett. I mean making a sports 375 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: analogy there with how you win. 376 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: Games are won by players who focus on the playing field, 377 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: not by those whose eyes are glued to the scoreboard. 378 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 2: Keep that one on you today. That's a really, really 379 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: good one to apply to a lot of facets of life. 380 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: And with that, folks, we always appreciate you running with us. 381 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 2: Don't miss our recovery run tomorrow morning. What is something 382 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 2: you know for sure it's going to be in the 383 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 2: recovery run we did this week. 384 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: I would say going to Ava's improv theater Showkay that 385 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: I was about to go. We're gonna go do it 386 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: again tonight too, so we'll have a lot to talk about. 387 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, some folks, we always appreciate you running with us. 388 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 2: I'm TJ and. 389 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: I'm Amy Robock.
