1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: morning everyone, It's Monday, March thirty. First, welcome to your

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: Morning Run.

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robox and I'm TJ Holmes. And on the

5
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 2: Monday Morning Run, is this hopeful or not? Another possible

6
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 2: cease fire on the table between Israel and Hamas. Also

7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: this morning, a handful of rescues keep hope alive in

8
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 2: me and Mark where the death toll continues to climb

9
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 2: following Friday's massive earthquake.

10
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: And many thought President Trump was joking when he's talked

11
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: about a third term in office. Well he's made it

12
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: very clear now that he's serious. And speaking of Sirius,

13
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: President Trump says, get ready. More tariffs are coumbing this week,

14
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 1: calling one of them the Big One.

15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 2: Plus this morning, Prince Harry is being accused of bullying

16
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 2: and harassment. Also a big change at the White House.

17
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 2: Corresponding to dinner, they are dropping the comedian problem is

18
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 2: they had already hired one.

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: And a lot of talk today about country musician Morgan

20
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: Wallen abruptly walking off the NSL set Saturday night, followed

21
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: by a cryptic social media post. Plus award winning actor

22
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: Richard Chamberlain passed away over the weekend at the age

23
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: of ninety.

24
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: Oh, so the final four is set, and it's a

25
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 2: final four like we've only seen one other time before. Also, well,

26
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: we don't ever want to see this again. An ugly

27
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: scene at an NBA game over the weekend, five players,

28
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 2: two coaches thrown out and suspensions might be coming.

29
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: And poor snow White in just its second week at

30
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: the box office, a disastrous drop in an already dismal

31
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 1: showing for the Disney film.

32
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 2: But we're going to try to find a way this

33
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 2: morning with snow White. We are going to endorse the

34
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: film in a way. We've been talking about this a lot,

35
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: and we saw the movie, but then we appreciated and

36
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: enjoyed it more after we started listening to the soundtrack afterwards. Really,

37
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: it's really something to behold, and we want to lift

38
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: this movie up. It seems like it's nothing but bad

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 2: news for this movie.

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: That's true. We have enjoyed parts of it after the fact.

41
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 2: Yes, all right, but we want to start this morning

42
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: with a sign of possible progress. Hamas has agreed to

43
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: a proposed ceasefire deal with Israel. Israel hasn't agreed to

44
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: a damn thing yet and has continued its promised military offensive.

45
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: In fact, ten people were killed, including five children, in

46
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: an Israeli air strike, according to health officials in Gaza.

47
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: That attack came on Eid, which wraps up the holiest

48
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: time of the year from Muslims, and it comes as

49
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: Hamas agreed to a ceasefire deal that was proposed by Egypt.

50
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 2: Yeah. As part of that deal, Hamas would release five

51
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: living hostages. Israel would again allow aid to flow into Gaza.

52
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 2: Both sides would agree to a four to day ceasefire,

53
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 2: among other things. But all of that was not good

54
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 2: enough for Israel, which countered the proposal and demanded more

55
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 2: hostages be released.

56
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 1: Israel broke the previous ceasefire about two weeks ago with

57
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: a surprise bombardment of strikes that killed four hundred people.

58
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: Israel at the time said it was frustrated with the

59
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: lack of progress after the first phase that the ceasefire

60
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: ended on more mar First, let's hope that this may

61
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: maybe a baby step towards another ceasefire, and.

62
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 2: We go to our next leg where you just said

63
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: the word hope. Ropes. They're certainly holding on to it

64
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 2: overseas now with a growing death toll from the earthquake

65
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 2: that rocked Meanmar and Thailand. As of this recording, at

66
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: least seventeen hundred people are confirmed dead, another thirty four

67
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: hundred injured. More than one hundred others still remain missing.

68
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: So rescues are underway as we speak. In fact, earlier

69
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: this morning, search crews were able to free four more

70
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: people from collapse buildings in me and mar That was

71
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: three days ago that this earthquake hit. So among them

72
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: was a pregnant woman, a young girl. In Bangkok, at

73
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: least eighteen people were killed with that earthquake, including eleven

74
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: in a high rise building under construction that completely collapsed.

75
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: Okay, so desperate searches continue now. They got cranes involved,

76
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: dog sniffers involved, looking for more than seventy people who

77
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 2: are believed to be buried under the rubble. The searches

78
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: are happy in difficult conditions. Temperatures are above one hundred

79
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: degrees and there have been numerous after shocks and even

80
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 2: second recorded earthquake, A second one that was I think

81
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: that was a pretty good It was.

82
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: A five point one, a five point one earthquake. Also

83
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: adding to all of this chaos, Me and Mar is

84
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: embroiled in a four year civil war. So on Sunday,

85
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: the National Unity government announced it would implement a two

86
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: week pause in offensive military operations in the areas affected

87
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: by the earthquake. The military government in Me and Maar

88
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: has not made a similar announcement, so it's really unclear

89
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: right now what's going to happen with the fighting as

90
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: search and rescue operations are underway.

91
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, so far, China, Russia, India have also in emergency

92
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 2: teams and supplies to the area, in addition to Thailand, Malaysia,

93
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: Vietnam as well. The US has sent nothing yet today,

94
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 2: but has pledged to help. Yesterday, the US Embassy and

95
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 2: Mianmar announced on its website that the US would provide

96
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 2: up to two million dollars in aid that would be

97
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 2: disseminated through humanitarian groups based in the area.

98
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: Well next up on the run, we have heard President

99
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: Trump talk about a third term before. We've even recently

100
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: reported on a Tennessee congressman who proposed amending the twenty

101
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: second Amendment for another term for Trump. But you know what,

102
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: it all seemed pretty far fetched. However, we're now learning

103
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem that way to President Trump.

104
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 2: Have we not learned yet to take this man at

105
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: his word? Yesterday, Trump told NBC News that he is

106
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 2: not joking about trying to serve a third term as president,

107
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 2: saying there are methods which you could do it. When

108
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: asked if one way to do it would be to

109
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: have Vice President jd. Vance run for the top job

110
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 2: and then pass the baton to him, Trump answered, well,

111
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: that's one, but there are others too. When asked to

112
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 2: give another way, he refused to elaborate.

113
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: So the twenty second Amendment, in case you need a

114
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: little refresher, was added to the Constitution back in nineteen

115
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: fifty one to make sure that no person is elected

116
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: to the office of president more than twice. This was

117
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: put in place after FDR was elected four times in

118
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: a row. Now, some legal experts who have weighed in

119
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 1: on Trump's latest statements believe it would require an extraordinary,

120
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: if not impossible, level of support from elected officials, the courts,

121
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: and of course the voters.

122
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 2: Okay, so they're suggesting that Trump is instead talking about

123
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: a third term to show as much strength as possible,

124
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 2: knowing that he's trying to be anything other than a

125
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: lame duck president.

126
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: Hm.

127
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 2: Trump will be eighty two at the end of his

128
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 2: second term as president. With so much talk about age

129
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 2: in the last round of the presidential election, I can't

130
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 2: imagine folks being on board with me. Eighty two, My goodness,

131
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 2: most stressful job in the world.

132
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and when asked, why would you want to still

133
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: work at eighty two, he just said.

134
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 3: I like working.

135
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 2: I believe it when he says that I do too.

136
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 2: But a third term, he says, he's not joking. This

137
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: is not going to go away. Everything that we've heard

138
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 2: that we thought was far fetched, he ends up doing it.

139
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: Well, if he's already talking about it three months into

140
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: his second term, you know it's on his mind now.

141
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: It's certainly going to be on his mind in a

142
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: year or two from now.

143
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: All Right, we'll get to You're on the run here

144
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 2: with some more Trump. This time we're talking tariffs, and

145
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 2: President Trump says, you ain't seen nothing yet. What he

146
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: called the big one is coming this week and markets,

147
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 2: world leaders, all of us just bracing ourselves.

148
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, truly, And it's on April second, that's this Wednesday,

149
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: is what President Trump has dubbed Liberation day, when the

150
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: White House will announce a whole new round of tariffs.

151
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: The President says, these are reciprocal tariffs that will apply

152
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: to all countries.

153
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: And keep in mind, this is going to be different

154
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: from the auto tariffs we've already heard about, from the

155
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 2: steel tariffs already announced, and different from the tariffs aimed

156
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: directly at certain countries Canada, Mexico, China, Venezuela, the EU

157
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 2: with the wine and the liquor tariffs.

158
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 3: I can't keep them all straight, babe, I just can't.

159
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 2: Well, you're going to have a good time on Wednesday,

160
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 2: because he's announcing a whole new round this coming. So

161
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 2: the markets already have seen this morning, the futures at

162
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: least of this recording. The markets aren't liking what they're seeing,

163
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 2: and all the markets are scheduled, at least the ones

164
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 2: here in the US look like they're going to end

165
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 2: the month down based on all this chaos we've seen

166
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 2: in this month.

167
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

168
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: Do you think that he's named April second Liberation Day

169
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: to avoid doing it tomorrow, which is April Fool's Day?

170
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 3: And he might think people think he's kidding.

171
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 2: I don't ever think he's kidding, even on April fools.

172
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 2: Whatever announcement he makes, I'll take.

173
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 3: Him word all right.

174
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: Next up on our Run. We talked here last week

175
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: about Prince Harry expressing his devastation in his shock after

176
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: stepping down from a charity he founded in honor of

177
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: his mother. Well, now the executive director of that charity

178
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: has come out firing against Prince Harry, saying, hey, we

179
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: got it all wrong, and she accused Prince Harry of

180
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: bullying and harassment.

181
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. Sophiechendolca is her name. She's the head of Cinta

182
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: Bali and she gave an extended interview to Sky News

183
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: in which she says Harry made the announcement that he

184
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: was leaving the organization without telling her or anyone else

185
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 2: at the charity. He announced his departure last week as

186
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 2: patron of Cinti Bali, which is an Africa based charity

187
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: that helps children with HIV AIDS.

188
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: Prince Harry helped start the organization twenty years ago as

189
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 1: a tribute to his late mother. Princess Diana. Chandoka has

190
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: claimed mismanagement, misconduct and abuse of power at the charity.

191
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: She said Prince Harry's resignation is an example of the

192
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: bullying and called it an attack on her and the

193
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,599
Speaker 1: five hundred and forty people who work for the organization.

194
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 2: She went as far as saying Harry's toxicity, she used

195
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 2: that word, his toxicity was a challenge for the charity.

196
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: Even said she was asked to do positive pr for

197
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 2: Megan Markle but didn't want the charity to become part

198
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 2: of the quote Sussex pr machine.

199
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 3: Oooh.

200
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: This is apparently all part of an internal power struggle

201
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: in which the board wanted the executive director removed, but

202
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: she has taken legal action to prevent from getting let go.

203
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a whole big, ugly mass that's just

204
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: spilling out. And we remember what Prince Harry said last week.

205
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: He said what's transpired is unthinkable. We are in shock

206
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: that we have to do this. Who knows, he said,

207
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: She said thing right now, And sadly it's being displayed

208
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: for the world to see.

209
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 2: It's spilling out publicly unfortunately. And like we talked about

210
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 2: here last week as well, this was something that was

211
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: part of improving his public image. You know, it was

212
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 2: in honor of his mother. This has to be something

213
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 2: that's very important and special to him, but some of

214
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 2: the accusations, I mean, she didn't hold back. It was

215
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: tough and some of what she said. But more to

216
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 2: come on that for sure. Stay here with us on

217
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 2: this morning run. When we come back the White House

218
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: Correspondence Dinner. You know that annual spectacle, Well it's gonna

219
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 2: look dinner gonna look different this year, and you know

220
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: what one comedian is actually having to bear the brunt

221
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 2: of it. Will explain. Also coming up, why did Morgan

222
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 2: Wallin walk off stage at SNL and why is everybody

223
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 2: chiming in on that? Also, Richard Chamberlain has passed away

224
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: if you haven't seen that news over the weekend, and

225
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 2: the final four is set and it's a final four

226
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: like we've only seen once before. We continue now on

227
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: our Monday Morning ron with the annual spectacle that is

228
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 2: the White House Correspondence Dinner. It is going to be

229
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: re envisioned this year. We're told they could have told

230
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: amber Roughin that ahead of time, though the comedian was

231
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 2: slated to be the performer at this year's dinner, but

232
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: she was abruptly dropped over the weekend.

233
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: In fact, the head of the White House Correspondence Association

234
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: said They're board voted unanimously to drop her from the program.

235
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: You hear that and you think, well, gosh, is she

236
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: being canceled? What did she do? Here's the deal. The

237
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: answer is nothing.

238
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: She did nothing, folks. But the head of the Correspondence

239
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 2: Association explained it this way, and I quote, at this

240
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 2: consequential moment for journalism, I want to ensure the focus

241
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: is not on the politics of division, but entirely on

242
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 2: awarding our colleagues for their outstanding work and providing scholarship

243
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 2: and membership to the next generation of journalists. Fine, knock

244
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 2: yourself out, do that. But they announced Amber Ruffin as

245
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: the comedic performer two months ago. So what happened in

246
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: the past two months that made you go from wanting

247
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 2: her and having this event to where we are now.

248
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 2: This had to be more than simply a change of heart.

249
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 2: So what was it? Well, your guess is as good

250
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,719
Speaker 2: as are. We don't have an answer. I'm sorry I

251
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 2: set that up like we had an answer.

252
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 3: Don't worry.

253
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they said there will be a re

254
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: envisioning for our dinner and details will come later. The

255
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 1: dinner is on April twenty six, and she's.

256
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 3: A long time comedian and writer.

257
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: She's been with The Seth Meyers Show for six years,

258
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: and when she was announced as the comedian, the headlining

259
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: comedian for the Dinner, the Correspondence Association described her this way.

260
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 2: This is great, all right, we quote them. Keep in

261
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,599
Speaker 2: mind what we just said right now, listen to what

262
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 2: they say about it.

263
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 3: This is what they said about Amber Ruffin.

264
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 1: Her unique talents are ideal for this current political and

265
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: cultural climate. Her perspective will fit right in with the

266
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: dinner's tradition of honoring the freedom of the press while

267
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 1: rose the most powerful people on all sides of the

268
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: aisle and the journalists who cover them.

269
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: I don't get how you go from that to all

270
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 2: of a sudden now as a consequential moment for journalism,

271
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 2: and we want to ensure the focus is not on

272
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: the politics of the vision. And you just said she

273
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 2: was perfect for this because she's perfect for the political

274
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 2: and cultural climate that we are currently in. How what

275
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 2: happened in two months?

276
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know.

277
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: And also, look, I haven't been to the Dinner in

278
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: many years, but I have gone repeatedly, I'd say at

279
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: least four or five times over my years. As a journalist,

280
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: and this is usually just a fun, lighthearted event where yeah,

281
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: there is roasting, but it's all in good fun. The

282
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: comedians make fun of politicians on both sides of the aisle.

283
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 3: They make fun of journalists, they make fun of the

284
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,319
Speaker 3: relationships between the two.

285
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: It's so fun for everyone just to put their egos.

286
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 3: Aside and laugh together.

287
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: And that's what it's traditionally been.

288
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but a lot of folks their eyes looking at

289
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 2: this spectacle in DC of these people patting themselves on

290
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 2: the back, dressed up, laughing and hooton and holler, and

291
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 2: with the politicians that they're supposed to actually be covering.

292
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: That is a criticism of this event.

293
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: But we should point out the president himself, other than

294
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: President Trump, has always or when I had been there,

295
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: always participated and also joined in on the fun making

296
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: jokes at themselves and at others. So it was everybody

297
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: was in on it. Nobody was being targeted.

298
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 2: Obama was great. You can remember some of his I

299
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 2: remember George W. Bush, he was paid along. Trump has

300
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: not been to one of these as president. He has

301
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 2: attended in the past. In fact, I was there in

302
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 2: attendance at one of them, and actually talked to him

303
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: in Milania and the question I asked him, you think

304
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 2: you're going to be up on that stage delivering the

305
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 2: remarks one of these days. This was before he ran

306
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 2: for president, and that we didn't know he was running

307
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 2: at the time.

308
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 3: Wow.

309
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: And that was the last time I was at the

310
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 2: Correspondence dinner. But it's just bizarre, and I hated for Amber.

311
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 2: We have interviewed her and have been an her and

312
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 2: she's a wonderful talent. And to just get dropped for

313
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: what some will deem political correctness reasons for it. You're

314
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 2: trying to play Kate in some way somebody. But that's

315
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 2: just forth so.

316
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: The irony and the anti wokeness campaign that is that

317
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 1: she would somehow get canceled because of Yeah, the exact same.

318
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 3: Reason, all right.

319
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: Next up on our run another story that had a

320
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: lot of people chirping this weekend. Country singer Morgan wall

321
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: And tried an Irish exit from Saturday Night Live. The

322
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: problem is he didn't do it right because everybody saw it.

323
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 2: Is that the point nobody knowing.

324
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: An Irish exit is when you leave and nobody notices,

325
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you look around and say Hey,

326
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 1: where did so and so go?

327
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, well everybody saw where Morgan Wahan went. Okay, this

328
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 2: is what happened. He was a musical performer on SNL

329
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 2: this weekend and at the end of the show he

330
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 2: walked off stage. He didn't stick around for that traditional goodbye.

331
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 2: You know it and you know it well, it is

332
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 2: the part at the end when the show is done.

333
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 2: The hosts just come back and they say thanks for

334
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: being here, goodbye, and then the music plays and the

335
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: credits roll. As the credits rolling music's playing, you see

336
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 2: the cast and the host kind of mingling playfully on stage,

337
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 2: hugging each other and making some jokes and some cracks.

338
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 2: But we all kind of stick around and watch. It's

339
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 2: fun to see their interaction.

340
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that started to happen. Mikey Madison was the host.

341
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: She said goodbye to the audience while on was standing

342
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: next to her. As soon as she said the goodbye,

343
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: she hugged him. He gave her kind of a half

344
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: hug and then just bounced. He walked right off the

345
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: stage through the audience, directly towards the camera, walked past

346
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: the camera and was gone.

347
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 2: The worst Irish exit.

348
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 3: And then here's this.

349
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: Later in a social media post, he wrote, get me

350
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: to God's Country, accompanied by a picture that appeared to

351
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: be taken out of the window of a plane. So

352
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: he was leaving New York City quickly. No official word

353
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: on what this was all about, but he has had

354
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: a controversial history with SNL. He was supposed to be

355
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: the performer in twenty twenty, but then he was dropped

356
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: after the video service to him flagrantly breaking COVID protocols.

357
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 3: He also got caught.

358
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: With a racial slur, so there's been a lot of

359
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: controversy around him, and some people were even wondering why

360
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: he was invited back to be the musical guest.

361
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 3: In the first place.

362
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 1: Clearly he didn't want to be there, and I don't

363
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: think there are a lot of people out there who

364
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: didn't want him to be there either.

365
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 2: But if you go see the video today, is just

366
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 2: kind of hilarious. I mean, it could be completely innocent.

367
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: He wasn't thinking about anything other than Okay, the show's over.

368
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 2: This is the way I've been coming on too stage

369
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,239
Speaker 2: and off stage he walks right off the front of

370
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 2: the stage, folks. I'm not saying he didn't go to

371
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 2: the side as of steps he walks.

372
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 1: I think the personally watching it, I think he did

373
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: it on purpose. I think he did it to make

374
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: a statement. And the reason why I think that is

375
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: because he did walk right through the camera. He knows

376
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: exactly what he was doing. Number one and number two

377
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: because they rehearse this. I mean they go through rehearsals

378
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: very specifically. And then to that tweet, I'm sorry, like

379
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: that is just basically get me the heck out of

380
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: New York City.

381
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 3: I get it.

382
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think the two are.

383
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 3: They're related, in my opinion.

384
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 2: Is what everybody was, and they will continue to be

385
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: buzzing about that.

386
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 3: All right.

387
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, A passing to tell you

388
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: about actor Richard Chamberlain, died over the weekend at the

389
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: age of ninety from complications following a stroke. If you're

390
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 1: of a certain age, you know his name. Some of

391
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 1: you may not, but this was a household name in

392
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 1: my home growing up. My mom was a fan of

393
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty three television series The Thornbirds. I always

394
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: I don't know why I remember her watching that in

395
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: our home, but I certainly do. Chamberlain played a priest

396
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: who fell in love with the local girl, that role

397
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 1: winning him his third Golden Globe.

398
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 2: Yeah it was That's what the show was about.

399
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was okay spicy.

400
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 2: He was Nover's award winning role in another nineteen eighties

401
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 2: hit TV mini series, Showgun. He had breakout role. Nineteen

402
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 2: sixty one, he was cast as the lead role on

403
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 2: Doctor Kilkildare as that in the TV medical drama had

404
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 2: the same name, Doctor Kildare. Chamberlain also had success as

405
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 2: Jason Bourne opposite Jacqueline Smith and The Bourne Identity, which

406
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: was nineteen eighty eight. Now that was a two part

407
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,479
Speaker 2: TV movie. That role made even more famous a few

408
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,679
Speaker 2: years later by Matt Damon on the big screen.

409
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: Yeah that's right.

410
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: I didn't realize he was actually the original Jason Bourne.

411
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: And it wasn't until two thousand and three that Chamberlain

412
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: finally came out as gay in his memoir that was

413
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,640
Speaker 1: titled Shattered Love, and his lifelong partner shared this message

414
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: on Chamberlain's passing. He wrote, our beloved Richard is with

415
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: the angels now he is free and soaring to those

416
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 1: loved ones before us. How blessed we were to have

417
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 1: known such an amazing and loving soul. Love never dies,

418
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 1: and our love is under his wings, lifting him to

419
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: his next great adventure. I thought that was a really

420
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: beautiful nod to him and to their love and to

421
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 1: how he lived his life.

422
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 2: You know, I jumped out of me there twenty two

423
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 2: thousand and three. That was twenty two years ago that

424
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 2: I have that right. And he was ninety years old

425
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 2: to think that he was seventy yeah, before he came out,

426
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 2: before people knew he was gay. Just what he life

427
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 2: was like.

428
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was a heart throb.

429
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 1: So he was considered that leading man that all the

430
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: girls were swooning over. You know, I think that might

431
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: be why my mom liked watching Thornbird. So when he

432
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: had that stature of being a ladies man, basically, I

433
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: think it was you know, he talked about how difficult

434
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,199
Speaker 1: it was for him to come out in Hollywood at

435
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 1: that time for a lot of reasons.

436
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 2: All Right, we will continue here on the run on

437
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 2: this Monday morning with the final four. It is set.

438
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: You probably watched a lot of this over the weekend

439
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: and a surprise, of course, we watched every bounce of

440
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 2: the ball this weekend, and that was a surprise. Now

441
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 2: in the final four. The surprise is that all four

442
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 2: number one seeds are going to the final four. Now,

443
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 2: they're the best teams, why wouldn't they be going. Well,

444
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 2: the thing is this usually does not happen. This is

445
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 2: quite a surprise because this is only the second time

446
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 2: in the history of the tournament that all four number

447
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 2: one seeds have made it to the final four. So

448
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 2: you got Auburn, Duke Houston in Florida. The last time

449
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: that all four number seeds were in the final four,

450
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 2: that was in two thousand and eight. So these are

451
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 2: the best teams. But this has been a tournament that

452
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 2: some have criticized or complained about to a certain degree.

453
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 2: We didn't have any cinderellas all high seeds. Arkansas was

454
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 2: the cinderella. That was a ten seed that shouldn't have

455
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 2: been a cinderella. But we just don't have the big

456
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 2: upsets like we were used to seeing. But yes, all

457
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 2: four number one seed So going to the final.

458
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 3: Four, all right.

459
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: And on the women's side, the final four will be

460
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: determined by the end.

461
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 3: Of the day today.

462
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: UCLA and South Carolina are already in Connecticut is playing

463
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 1: number one seed usc and number one seed Texas plays

464
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 1: TCU later today, so we'll have those results by tomorrow

465
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 1: and next up on our run. Well, it was more

466
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: of a skirmish than a brawl, but still it was

467
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: not pretty last night as a scuffle between players during

468
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: an NBA game spilled into the first couple of rows

469
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: of fans.

470
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. This was in the second quarter of the game

471
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 2: Minneapolis last night between the Timberwolves and the Detroit Pistons. Now,

472
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 2: after a file, which wasn't that dramatic of a file,

473
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 2: a couple of the players got a little mouthy, a

474
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,880
Speaker 2: little chesty with each other. It turned into a shoving

475
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 2: match that involved all players on the court and even

476
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,360
Speaker 2: some coaches. It was a huge scrum of players and coaches,

477
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 2: many of them ended up. Yeah, and the lapse of

478
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,959
Speaker 2: fans who were seated in the first couple of row

479
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 2: at the baseline. So five coaches, excuse me, five players?

480
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 2: Two coaches ejected, No, I didn't see. I went through

481
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 2: this video a lot didn't see a lot of swinging

482
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 2: and punches, and that certainly will get you an automatic suspension.

483
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 2: But it's just ugly. It's ugly if it would have

484
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: happened just on the court, But when you see fans

485
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 2: start to be I guess pawns or the victims if

486
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 2: you will. Yeah, collateral damage in that this is an

487
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 2: ugly scene that the NBA is going to do something

488
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: about it. It looks awful.

489
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,239
Speaker 1: And it wasn't just two coaches. It was a head coach, right,

490
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 1: Detroit's head.

491
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 2: Coach j bicker Staff.

492
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: His name is Yes, I was just as a bicker Staff.

493
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 3: Well, that's ironic.

494
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 2: And you know why bicker Staff got thrown out because

495
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 2: he was bickering with an assistant coach from the other team.

496
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 2: They were chomping at each other. So just you see

497
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 2: the video. This wasn't much, but it looked like a

498
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 2: whole lot and that's going to be.

499
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: A problem for this It's just embarrassing to even see

500
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 1: that happening at that level. All right, And for the

501
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: final leg of our run, well, a bit of surprise

502
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: at the box office this weekend, A working Man beat

503
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: snow White. Jason Statham's new movie, Yes it is called

504
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: a working Man was number one at the weekend box office.

505
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 2: So snow White, of course, opened last weekend, came in second. Sure,

506
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 2: snow White has gotten a lot of flak lately. It

507
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 2: was still though widely expected to be able to hold

508
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 2: on and even easily to the number one spot, given

509
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 2: it had limited major competition, but the bad reviews, bad

510
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 2: word of mouth, and controversy seemed to have doomed this movie.

511
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 2: It had a sixty six percent drop off from last

512
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 2: weekend's box office. What that means is there was a

513
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: sixty seven percent drop off in how much money it made.

514
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: That is a disastrous drop off for a movie.

515
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, so a working Man brought in just fifteen point

516
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: two million dollars in the domestic box office. Snow White

517
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: brought in a little over fourteen million. Snow White cost

518
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 1: more than two hundred and fifty million to make. It's

519
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 1: made one hundred and forty three point one month total worldwide.

520
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: So they still have a long and winding road to

521
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: even break even on this one, and that may not happen.

522
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I'll tell you. It's like no shot. Yeah at

523
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 2: this point. But we went and saw the movie and

524
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 2: we understood that some of the criticism wasn't just people

525
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 2: hating on it because of the controversy. People took issue

526
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 2: with the film and that's fine, just as just on

527
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 2: its merits, right. But we went back and we listened

528
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,239
Speaker 2: to the soundtrack, and we have been listening to it

529
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 2: constantly and we have been running to it. Even the

530
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 2: music is once again, we appreciate it more when we

531
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 2: hear it and not see it on screen.

532
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, we made it known.

533
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I was not a fan of the movie,

534
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: and I love Disney movies, but I just wasn't a

535
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 1: fan of this one and had nothing to do with

536
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: the controversies.

537
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 3: So I think maybe watching.

538
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 1: It and hearing the music created a different feeling when

539
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: I've just been listening. We've been listening to the music

540
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: just around the house, like you said, and all of

541
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 1: a sudden, like, Okay, I like this song now, and

542
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: so it's growing on me for sure.

543
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 3: And you read like you're a huge fan.

544
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 2: Of Oh cue good Things grow. Oh my goodness, you've

545
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 2: been humming. Oh I love that song. I've been running

546
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 2: to it the Good Things. It is amazing. And Rachel

547
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 2: Zegler think what you want. But she is an immense talent.

548
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 2: She is she is so so hey, if you think

549
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 2: about seeing the movie, try this first. Listen to the soundtrack. Ya,

550
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 2: go listen to the music, and it will make you excited.

551
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 2: I think a little more about the movie. You might

552
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: think what you want about the movie, but the music's great.

553
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 3: I agree, we can all agree on that.

554
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 2: And here we are given Disney an endorsement. I think

555
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:32,719
Speaker 2: that's some stuff.

556
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,479
Speaker 1: All right. We'd like you to consider this as you

557
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: go about your day to day on this Monday, this

558
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: last day of March.

559
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 3: Here is your quote of the day.

560
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 2: Don't let somebody else's opinion of you become your reality.

561
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 3: I have to remind myself of this sometimes. I think

562
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 3: we all do.

563
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: But it's it's good to remember that that we can't

564
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: give away our power. And I think in a lot

565
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: of different ways. We all do it in little ways

566
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,479
Speaker 1: throughout the day, but in big ways sometime, and this

567
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: is one of them. So this spoke to me this morning,

568
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: so I'll say it one more time for everybody as

569
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: you get about your day today, don't let someone else's

570
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: opinion of you become your reality. And with that, thank

571
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 1: you for running with us on this Monday morning.

572
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 2: I'm Ami Robot and I'm TJ. Holmes. We'll see you

573
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 2: back here on the run tomorrow, folks,
