But yes, that of 14 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,199 Speaker 3: course has us in the conversation again about what's been 15 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,639 Speaker 3: happening at the nation's airports. We'll get into that. All 16 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 3: sort ropes that it doesn't matter who you are. I 17 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 3: think every what a legend. They say you're a legend 18 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 3: when you can cross and you touch different generations. Jane Good, 19 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 3: everybody knows who Jinga is. 20 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: Ava, my twenty two year old, texted me as soon 21 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: as the news broke yesterday saying I'm so sad. So 22 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: that speaks to her impact and her legacy at ninety one. 23 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: She reminds me of. 24 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: A Ruth Bader Ginsburg, somebody like that who just left 25 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: her mark on so many generations and a lot of women. 26 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 3: She paved the way, and she kept going and going 27 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 3: and going. A lot of you heard about her passing, 28 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 3: and it's remarkable. She was still at work when she passed. 29 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 3: Will remember her this morning. Also, Okay, if you had 30 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: a problem with Bad Money, we'll get ready for another 31 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 3: big dose of him. But bad Bunny, this is cool, 32 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 3: It's perfect. The timing is great. He is just on 33 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 3: a run right now. 34 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's having quite the week. 35 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: He's been in the headlines and he's going to stay 36 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: in them through the weekend. But all for really good 37 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 1: things that are happening to him and for him. 38 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is cool. You'll want to see him this weekend. 39 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 3: And the most banned author at American schools? Is this right? 40 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 3: We're banning authors? 41 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: Is first of all, yes, I didn't even realize that 42 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: was happening. And then when I saw who the most 43 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: banned author was, I actually personally offended. 44 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 3: Okay, we'll tell you why Robes is taking such personal offense. 45 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 3: After we heard who the most banned author in the 46 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 3: country is and our schools. Also reminded folks, take a 47 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 3: look at that phone now. The Apple podcast app top 48 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 3: right corner says follow where you see our show page. 49 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 3: Click that and you get our updates coming to you 50 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 3: all the time. Also want to let you know on 51 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 3: the run this morning, those furloughs might become firings. Did 52 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 3: he wants to talk in court tomorrow? Did he doesn't 53 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 3: want one of his alleged victims to talk in court tomorrow? Also, 54 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: Trump is taking billions from blue states, The Supreme Court 55 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 3: is with Lisa Cook for now, and Bermuda is getting battered. 56 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: But of course, Robes, we are still closed for business 57 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 3: as a federal government, right. 58 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: We certainly are. So we begin our Friday Eve run 59 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: with the big question on most people's minds this morning, 60 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: how long will this government shut down last? We have 61 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: an answer at least until Friday. 62 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: No, that's not very specific, but we got something. The 63 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 3: point is, don't expect anything today. Are in day two 64 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 3: now of this shutdown. Congress is out of session for 65 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 3: the Jewish holiday, so no business being done. So tomorrow 66 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 3: Friday is the first opportunity for members of Congress to 67 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 3: possibly reach a deal. But to be honest with you, folks, 68 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 3: it does not look good. Both sides continued to sound 69 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: like they're digging in their heels more so than coming 70 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: around to compromise. 71 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: That's right, Democrats. Democrats have been insisting on assurances about 72 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: Medicaid cuts. Republicans say, sure, we can talk about that, 73 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: but only after we sign a temporary measure to keep 74 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: the government open. Meanwhile, an estimated seven hundred and fifty 75 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: thousand federal workers are being furloughed, but the Trump administration 76 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: says some of those furloughs will end up being firing. 77 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, he spoke of this and talked about it as 78 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 3: kind of a threat even before the shutdown happened. But 79 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 3: he has absolutely said this is something that's going to happen. 80 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 3: It looks like they're moving forward with it. The Press 81 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 3: Secretary Carolyn Levitt said yesterday that firings were imminent, and 82 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 3: then the President wrote this on social media. Republicans must 83 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 3: use this opportunity of Democrat forced closure to clear out 84 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: dead wood, waste, and fraud. Billions of dollars can be saved. 85 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: Some of the first money the president was looking to 86 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: cut is in Democrat led states. 87 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 3: Hmmm. 88 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: The administration has paused or canceled billions of dollars in funding. 89 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: In particular, it's a big story here locally in New York. 90 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: They're eighteen billion dollars in federal infrastructure dollars has been 91 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: put on holds. 92 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 3: Now, you might say, well why, and a lot of 93 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: people will say, well, clearly they're doing this in retaliation. No, no, no, no, 94 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: you don't have to speculate, folks, They're saying exactly why. 95 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 3: The head of the White House Budget Office tweeted this quote, 96 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 3: Roughly eighteen billion dollars in New York City infrastructure projects 97 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 3: have been put on hold to ensure funding is not 98 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 3: flowing based on unconstitutional DEI principles. Day didn't even. 99 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 2: Say practices, just principles, all right. 100 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 1: And in case that wasn't clear enough for you, the 101 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: Department of Transportation put out this statement saying it's reviewing 102 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: New York's unconstitutional practices and that it will take more 103 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 1: time because of the shutdown. Now, the money was earmarked 104 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: for two major projects here in New York, a Hudson 105 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: River tunnel and a subway on the city's east side. 106 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 3: Say well, well, well, what those are two headaches here? 107 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,799 Speaker 3: The east side certainly could to use work. Really the tunnel, 108 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 3: that work is essentially not going to be reimbursed at 109 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 3: some point if New York runs out of money, those 110 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 3: projects will have to stop. 111 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: Unless Trump has the purse strings. 112 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: I'll be damned all right. Next up on the Run, 113 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: though Lisa Cook keeps on winning against the President. Cook, 114 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: the Federal Reserve governor that President Trump has tried, tried, 115 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 3: and tried again to fire, was told by the Supreme 116 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 3: Court yesterday that she can hold onto her job for 117 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 3: the time being. 118 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: Trump has been trying to get her off the Federal 119 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: Reserve for months now, initially firing her for cause, claiming 120 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: she on a mortgage application. But Cook sued to keep 121 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: her job and has won it every single step along 122 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: the legal. 123 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 3: Way, and then trumpasa's Supreme Court to intervene immediately, but instead, 124 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: yesterday the court said Cook can stay in her role 125 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 3: until the court hears oral arguments in the case. In January, 126 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 3: Cook did participate in the last FED meeting in which 127 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 3: they did cut interest rates. They have two more meetings 128 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 3: this year. She will be there, all right. 129 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: Next up on the Run. Some sad news to report. 130 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: We talked about it at the top of this episode, 131 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: but a major loss to the animal conservation movement.

Now, among Goodall's 175 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: many awards, she was named a Dame of the British Empire, 176 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: by Queen Elizabeth back in two thousand and three, and 177 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: just this past January, she was awarded our highest honor, 178 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: the Presidential Medal of Freedom, by President Joe Biden. She 179 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 1: is survived by her son, her sister, and three grandchildren. 180 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 3: What a life. I didn't realize that I miss the 181 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 3: Presidential Medal Freedom. Yeah, I just forgot her. 182 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that either, But yes, it was noted 183 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: among her many, many, many awards that she's won over 184 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: the years. 185 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 3: You know you mentioned Tanzania. That was when I got 186 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 3: how big of a deal she was. I knew her name, 187 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 3: but I happened to be at a conference in Tanzania, 188 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 3: all these African heads of state and this little white 189 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 3: lady walks in, and the amount of regard and respect 190 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 3: that this room had for this lady, it made you 191 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 3: stand up and go wait a second, and again you 192 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 3: know who she was, but she is just so highly 193 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 3: regarded in any room, and that was in Tanzania. 194 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: That's really cool it happened. 195 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 3: So ah, what a loss. Great about the girl. We 196 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 3: don't realize this wasn't just that field. She opened it 197 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 3: up for all fields. 198 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: Yes, any woman who thought could I do that? Could 199 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: I go into that she opened that door. 200 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 3: Ah, what a loss. All right, we're going to continue 201 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 3: on this. What you keep calling it Friday eve, I 202 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 3: always mess that up. So it's Thursday, right, I continue 203 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 3: on this Thursday morning, Ron And tomorrow is it, folks? 204 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 3: Tomorrow is sentencing day for Diddy and now we expect 205 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 3: to hear from him in court. Yes, Sean Diddy Combs 206 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 3: has asked to address the court tomorrow during sentencing for 207 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 3: his two convictions for transportation to engage in prostitution. 208 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: Man, that is going to be quite the spectacle. 209 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: So he just lost that last ditch effort this week 210 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: to have his convictions thrown out and get a new trial. 211 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: His lawyers now argue he should only be sentenced to 212 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: fourteen months in prison. Prosecutors are asking for a much 213 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: different sentence. They're asking for eleven years. Meanwhile, Comb's legal 214 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: team is also asking that Mia not be allowed to 215 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: give a victim impact statement. 216 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of people remember that pseudonym. This witness 217 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 3: testified under that pseudonym. She was a key prosecution witness. 218 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 3: I think she was up there a couple of days 219 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 3: if you remember as well, Robes. But she worked as 220 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 3: an assistant for Combs and claimed that he assaulted her 221 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 3: on several occasions. But in their request to the judge 222 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 3: to keep her from giving a victim impact statement, did 223 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 3: He's legal team said, I'm quoting here simply, she is 224 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 3: not a victim of anything. Went on to say, quote, 225 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 3: she is so eager to return to court when she 226 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: plainly does not have to and is not even entitled to. 227 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 3: This is a show for her. 228 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: Wow. 229 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 1: I mean, do I've never heard of a defendant getting 230 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: a say or even trying to have a say. I mean, 231 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: if you are a purported victim, if the prosecution literally 232 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: put you up as a witness. However, he wasn't convicted 233 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: on those crimes. 234 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 3: Even the prosecution concedes she is not. She does not 235 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 3: qualify as what we're talking about as a. 236 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: Victim because the jury did not find him guilty on 237 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: the charges that were associated with her allegation. 238 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 3: So there, I mean, Wow, what have we been saying 239 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 3: from the jump? Oh, he's got a good team. Wow, 240 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 3: does you have brought up stuff? We like, really you 241 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: can do that? 242 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: And then I thought, wait, now that you mention it, 243 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: I guess that does make a whole lot of sense. 244 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: All right, Next, up on the run as we are 245 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: about to head to LaGuardia. Really comforting news to know 246 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: that just a few hours ago, two jets collided at 247 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: laguardi At airport last night. It happened around ten pm. 248 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: They were both Delta Regional jets. Did we mention we 249 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: were flying Delta? Officials say they were both going at 250 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: low speeds? 251 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 2: Thankfully. 252 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 3: Are we gonna be looking out the window or yes? 253 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 2: I you know you like that window open. 254 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: I love the window open, and you're always looking for incoming. 255 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm that.

I'm the dude got 258 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 3: the lights on the lapt that guy window up, like. 259 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: Come on, because we've been up since three am, so 260 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: it's like mid morning. 261 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 3: With the issue they had last night, he was around 262 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 3: ten o'clock, but one plane had just arrived from Charlotte. 263 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 3: The other was preparing to take off for RONOK. Now, 264 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 3: it's being described like Robe just said, as a low 265 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: speed collision. But one plane's wing hit the front of 266 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 3: the other plane. We heard the audio from the cockpit 267 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 3: and the pilot was reporting damage to the cockpit window. 268 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 3: And yes, you see the front of this plane smashed. 269 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 3: They say, low speed, that was a pretty decent hit 270 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 3: to do some damage to that plane. Now, nobody engine 271 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: on the passengers, but they do say one flight attendant 272 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 3: reportedly hurt her knee. But that's certainly the good news. 273 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 3: But man, these stories keep bading out roads. 274 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 2: They're scary. 275 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: At least it was again at low speed, all right. 276 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: Next up on the run, Hurricane Immelda made a direct 277 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: pass over Bermuda overnight as a category two storms, winds 278 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: gusting more than one hundred miles per hour. You know, 279 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: it's the reports are pretty slim right now. I couldn't 280 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: find a lot. But there have been no immediate reports 281 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: of injuries or deaths. That's the good news. Many of 282 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: the residents, they say, whether that storm and shelters set 283 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: up throughout the island. 284 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, National Weather Service warrant that hurricane force winds, damaging waves, 285 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 3: and flash flooding could continue throughout the early morning hours. 286 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 3: Hundreds of customers remain without power today. 287 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. Bermuda schools, government offices, and its airport have been closed. 288 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: The island deployed one hundred soldiers to secure buildings, clear roads, 289 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: and help at emergency shelters. But weather experts do expect 290 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: conditions to rapidly improve. It's moving on out to see 291 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: it's not making landfall anywhere else, so they're hoping that 292 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: those conditions will improve. 293 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 2: And then the airport does plan to reopen. 294 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 3: All right, Well, folks, stay with us on this Friday 295 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 3: Eve run when we come back.

It 408 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 3: is our quote of the day. I will learn it 409 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 3: with you. 410 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: The minute you stop expecting life to be simple, fair 411 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 1: and easy, it becomes simple, fair and easy. 412 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 3: A lot of people are reacting the way I am 413 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 3: right now. It becomes simple, fair and easy. And when 414 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 3: we stop expecting it to be those things, do we 415 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 3: expect it? Life is hard, don't we understand? 416 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: But I think, why do we get so upset when 417 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: there's traffic? Why do we get so upset when there's 418 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: rain on our picnic? Why do we get because we 419 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 1: have expectations that are unrealistic and so once you start. 420 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 3: Looking low realistic for things to go well. 421 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 2: It's unrealistic for things to go perfectly the way. 422 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: You want them to, just to have decent traffic.
