That's how 13 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: President Trump paid tribute to Charlie Kirk at a memorial 14 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 2: attended by tens of thousands. I have all the details 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 2: from the emotional service, plus the latest on a horrific 16 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: mass shooting at a New Hampshire wedding. What the shooter 17 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 2: yelled during the attack could offer clues to a possible motive. 18 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: And the kids aren't all right. Senator Ron Wyden's children 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 2: have been blamed for driving his wife's assistant to commit suicide. 20 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: According to a bombshell lawsuit, those stories and more today Monday, 21 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: September twenty second, and Caitlin Becker and this is the 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 2: New York postcast. He's a martyr. 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: Now. 24 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: That's just part of how President Trump helped lay Charlie 25 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: Kirk Torest in front of a football stadium filled with 26 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: mourners in Arizona. The President described the shock he felt 27 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: when he learned of Kirk's death and said he believed 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: that Kirk was killed because he was winning on what 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: he called progressive college campuses. Trump also shared the last 30 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 2: words Charlie said to him, quote, please, sir, save Chicago. 31 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: The President promised to do just that, as he has 32 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 2: for several weeks now, to send the National Guard and 33 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 2: federal agents to the city to kirk crime. The most 34 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: emotional moments, though, as you'd expect, they came from Kirk's widow, Erica, 35 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 2: my husband, Charlie. 36 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 3: He wanted to save. 37 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: Young men just like the one who took his life. 38 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: That man, that young man, I forgive him. 39 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 2: Other speakers who took the stage included Donald Trump, Junior 40 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 2: Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Vice President J. D. Vance, 41 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 2: who ended his speech by speaking right to Charlie saying quote, 42 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 2: I love you, my friend. We've got it from here 43 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 2: now to New Hampshire, where one couple's fairy tale day 44 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 2: turned into an absolute nightmare when a gunman stormed into 45 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: the sky Meadow country Club in Nashua and opened fire 46 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 2: during their wedding, leaving one dead and several others injured. 47 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Twenty three year old Hunter Nadau was later idd as 48 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 2: the alleged shooter armed with a handgun. One wedding guest 49 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: who was killed is being hailed a hero. Witnesses say 50 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: Robert de Caesar went after the gunman as soon as 51 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 2: he kicked through the door of the dining room in 52 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 2: an attempt to protect his family. The father of two 53 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: was shot and killed, while two others were injured by 54 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: the shooter. Other injuries were sustained as roughly one hundred 55 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: wedding guests ran for cover. One witness said it appeared 56 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: as if the shooter was specifically going after De Caesar, 57 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: but police haven't indicated whether or not he was actually targeted. 58 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: Another witnesses reported nadal shouted free Palestine during the shooting. 59 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 2: The alleged shooter was promptly taken into custody. He's been 60 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: charged with second degree murder and is set to be 61 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: arranged later today, and while Nado's motive is unclear at 62 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: this point, his apparent shouting of free Palestine suggests this 63 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 2: might be the latest instance of the polarizing topic turning 64 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 2: violent here in the US, but globally the tide is 65 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 2: taking a different term. This week marks the beginning of 66 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 2: the high profile meeting of the UN General Assembly in 67 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: New York. The UK, Canada, and Australia all took the 68 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 2: opportunity to officially recognize a Palestinian state, and while the 69 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: move was largely expected, it was still met with outrage 70 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 2: from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Late night host Jimmy 71 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,839 Speaker 2: Kimmel's representatives are reportedly in discussions with Disney over how 72 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: his situation post Charlie Kirk comments and subsequent indefinite suspension 73 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: can be resolved. Their goal is for Kimmel to be 74 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 2: able to resume taping and get back on the air. 75 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: The Sideline star is said to be concerned for his crew, 76 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: according to sources who talked to Vanity Fair, and what 77 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: a permanent cancelation would mean for their livelihoods. And Insider 78 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: notes that a lot of them are still trying to 79 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: recover from the twenty twenty three actors strike that took 80 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: the show off the air, which stopped paychecks. Meanwhile, Kimmel 81 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: got some surprising support I guess we'll call it from 82 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: Republican Senator Ted Cruz. While the Texas lawmaker was careful 83 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: to note that he was not a fan of Kimmel's, 84 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: he also criticized FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr's threats to revoke 85 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: ABC's broadcast license as something out of a quote mafioso playbook. 86 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: Here's some of what he said on his podcast on Friday. 87 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 4: I hate what Jimmy Kimmel said. I am thrilled that 88 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 4: he was fired. But let me tell you, if the 89 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 4: government gets in the business of saying we don't kikay 90 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 4: what you the media have said, we're going to ban 91 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 4: you from the airwaves if you don't say what we like, 92 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 4: that will end up bad for conservatives. 93 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 2: President Trump spent part of his weekend calling for former 94 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: FBI Director James Comey, Senator Adam Schiff, and New York 95 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: Attorney General Letitia James to be prosecuted by the Justice 96 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 2: Department swiftly saying all three are quote guilty as hell, 97 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: but nothing is going to be done. Guilty as hell 98 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 2: of what he didn't say, but the President also claimed 99 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 2: to have reviewed thirty statements and posts, saying Attorney General 100 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: Pam Bondi's team at the DOJ is quote all talk, 101 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,679 Speaker 2: no action. The President has sung the praises of Bondi 102 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: several times since taking office for a second term, but 103 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: now he's pressuring her to do more to prosecute people 104 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: perceived as his enemies. The President complained that Bondie's Justice 105 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 2: Department nominated a quote Democrats supported US attorney in Virginia. 106 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 2: That man, Eric Sebert, had his nomination withdrawn over the 107 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 2: weekend and was replaced by Trump's former attorney Lindsay Halligan. 108 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 2: So is Bondi really in the hot seed? And should 109 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 2: the people Trump name checked be worried too? The Post's 110 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: political reporter Ryan King has been following all of this, 111 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: and he joins me, Now, so Ryan, let's start with 112 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: Pam Bondi. The President previously was a Bondie stand, praising 113 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: her work for the DC crime crackdown and his plans 114 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: for the kind of sequel that he wanted to see 115 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: in Memphis. Now he's taking jobs that are at truth 116 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 2: Social and then an hour later praising her again. He's 117 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 2: hot and he's cold. So what exactly is Pam Bondy's 118 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: status in Trump World? 119 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I think President Trump clearly put her on notice. 120 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 3: He made clear later on that he is supporting her 121 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 3: and still believes that she's doing a great job, but 122 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 3: he made sure to list out a few complaints that 123 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 3: he had with her, particularly over the DOJ's handling of 124 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: investigations into three of his rivals. In particular, he was 125 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 3: also unhappy with how she handled the federal Attorney in 126 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 3: the Eastern District of Virginia, Eric Sebert, who of course 127 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 3: is in charge of or had been in charge of, 128 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 3: overseeing investigation unto Letitia James. 129 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 5: Trump recently over the weekend moved to oust him. 130 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 3: And it was, you know, pretty dramatic for the President 131 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 3: to go on truth Social and to criticize the DJ 132 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 3: for not being more aggressive in investigating his rivals. Now, 133 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 3: he did again walk it back in a subsequent truth 134 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 3: Social post, but then to reporters when he was questioned 135 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 3: about this, he said that he just wants to get 136 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: these issues resolved, and he said that he thinks it's 137 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 3: just taking too long, regardless of whether or not there's 138 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 3: evidence to ultimately prosecute them, he just wants this issue 139 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 3: to be settled now. As for Bondie standing in magaworld, generally, 140 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 3: I'd say it's pretty fair to say that she's. 141 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 5: Underwater right now. 142 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 3: She might be okay with President Trump, but you know, 143 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 3: on somewhat thin nice with him, But like with magastars 144 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 3: such as Steve Bannon, Megan Kelly, Laura Lumar, etc. It's 145 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: very clear that they're not happy with her because of 146 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: a number of things that she's done, particularly or her 147 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 3: handling of the Epstein dr and in more recently her 148 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 3: suggestion that the government can go after hate speech. 149 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 5: She said that last week, and. 150 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: I kicked up a bit of a firestorm, and there 151 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 3: are multiple Conservice stars that called for her to be fired. 152 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's really two lenses to view her through right now, 153 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 2: her relationship with the President and the Trump administration and 154 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: with the President's base and the MAGA following, so that 155 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: there is a bit of a differentiation there. 156 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: Now. 157 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: You mentioned Letitia James there, and I want to dig 158 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 2: a little deeper into the President's beef with the New 159 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 2: York ag. The issue here is also connected to the 160 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 2: Virginia US attorney drama, as you said, So can you 161 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: just explain a little bit of what the heck is 162 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: going on here? Where does the real issue where's it rooted? 163 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, and this. 164 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: Really seemed to be the issue that Kado was big 165 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 3: undercurrent in the President's criticism of bonding. So Latitia James 166 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 3: had of course overseen a big investigation into the Trump 167 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 3: organization and ultimately brought forward a civil case against his 168 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 3: business hire, and that resulted in a half a billion 169 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 3: dollar fine that was recently overturned by an appeals court. 170 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 3: But that of course angered President Trump and the federal 171 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 3: prosecutor that had been in charge of investigatingists, Eric Seburn, 172 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 3: who the President recently ousted. Trump was complaining that he 173 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: was basically dragging his feet in this investigation. 174 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 5: It wasn't being more aggressive. 175 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 3: And his investigation into Leachisia James really revolved around accusations 176 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 3: that surfaced in April of mortgage fraud and it's really 177 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 3: technical stuff. But the President felt that the dj just 178 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 3: has not been making enough progress quickly enough on that case, 179 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 3: and he was particularly concerned that that federal prosecutor that 180 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 3: he ousted had the support of two Democrats, so he 181 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 3: was ripping him as a rhino, and he was kind 182 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 3: of blaming camp Bondi for him being in that acting role, and. 183 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 5: He recently, of course replaced him over the weekend. 184 00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 3: And again this is just really I think the big 185 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 3: under current between the presidents slashing out at Pamboonda. 186 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 2: I want to just turn your attention to the other 187 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: names that the President rattled off in that truth Social 188 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: kind of tirade that he had Shift and Comy. So 189 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 2: what is President Trump asking of Bondi in those cases? 190 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was a little bit less specific, but I 191 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 3: think his general complaint was that those cases are still 192 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,479 Speaker 3: being too slow, that the dj isn't making enough progress 193 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 3: fast enough on those fronts. So this includes accusations of 194 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 3: mortgage fraud by Adam Schiff. Now Schiff, like Latist James Says, 195 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 3: of course denied this. It also includes Russia Gate concerns 196 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: about James Comy. All three of these people have been 197 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 3: really really prominent adversaries of President Trump, particularly during his 198 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 3: last administration and in the time in between his two 199 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: terms in the White House. 200 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 5: So it is pretty significant. 201 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 3: And I should know also that President Trump really had 202 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,239 Speaker 3: beefed with his prior to attorney generals during its first administration. 203 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 3: He really had big beef with Jeff Sessions and then 204 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 3: with Bill Barr. So he does have a history of 205 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 3: kin clashing with the head of the DOJ. 206 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 2: He definitely does seem to not only have a history 207 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: of the clashes, but that kind of rollercoaster of up 208 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 2: and down, up and down, up and down, support not supporting, 209 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 2: support not supporting. So I guess we are seeing a 210 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 2: bit of rinse and repeat as we have seen previously. 211 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining us, Ryan, Yes, thank you. 212 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: A new lawsuit is making disturbing claims that the children 213 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 2: of Oregon Senator Ron Wyden bullied a personal assistant working 214 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 2: for the family to the point of suicide. Brandon O'Brien 215 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 2: worked for the Democratic senator's wife, Nancy, owner of the 216 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: famous Strand bookstore in New York, and according to court dox, 217 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 2: he was often tasked with taking care of the couple's children. Now, 218 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 2: when I said the claims in this case were disturbing, 219 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 2: I not only meant the suicide itself, but also the 220 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 2: twisted things the family is accused of doing skip ahead 221 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: sixty seconds if you don't want to hear it. The suit, 222 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: which was filed by Brandon's husband, claims the Widens, then 223 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: ten year old docter, allegedly exposed herself to O'Brien, making 224 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 2: quote sexually explicit comments and asked about his quote intimate 225 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 2: life during school drop offs. The senator's teenaged son is 226 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 2: accused in the suit of taunting O'Brien with homophobic slurs 227 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: and threatening him physically, and in one alleged violet encounter, 228 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: Nancy Widen reportedly tried to mace her son in an 229 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 2: effort to restrain him, but hit O'Brien instead. Now Widen's 230 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 2: lawyers are seeking to get this lawsuit tossed, calling it 231 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,839 Speaker 2: quote baseless and deeply misguided, riddled with false accusations. Now 232 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: O'Brien quit in frustration in September of twenty twenty four, 233 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 2: and at the time, Nancy Widen accused him of stealing 234 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 2: six hundred and fifty thousand dollars. He then took his 235 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: own life this past May, and finally today, a dating 236 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 2: app love story Maybe a woman on Hinge is ready 237 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 2: to play ball with one suitor for a very interesting reason. 238 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 2: This single lady posted a picture of herself at a 239 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 2: baseball game on the app, and she asked prospective dates 240 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: if they could tell where she was. One guy replied 241 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: not just with the location, but the date of the 242 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: game and even the inning during which the photo was snapped. 243 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 2: His bizarrely specific guess was right. The location arguably pretty 244 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 2: easy to guess any Yankee fan, and many Yankee haters 245 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 2: could easily see it was taken at Yankee Stadium. The 246 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 2: rest of it was some CIA level work. The guy 247 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 2: deduced the rest based on the fact that the Baltimore 248 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 2: Orioles in the field include their catcher and pitcher and 249 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 2: the time of the year on the clothing being worn 250 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 2: in the stands. Yeah, it's a lot. The online reactions 251 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 2: were split between a for effort and s for scare 252 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 2: at the girl away. Now, the post was not able 253 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 2: to confirm whether or not that you actually ever went 254 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 2: on a date, But my fingers are crossed, both for 255 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: their potential love match and for her head not ending 256 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: up in his freezer. Maybe he just likes puzzles, Maybe 257 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: he's really smart. Maybe he'd be ace at trivia or 258 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 2: an escape room. Maybe she'll need to escape from shackles 259 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 2: and his basement. Love is a gamble, my friends, but 260 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 2: there is no gamble with this podcast though, for you 261 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: five days a week.
