Speaker 1 (00:01):
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, Welcome to Morning Run. It's Thursday, November sixth
I'm Amy Robots.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And I'm TJ Holmes and sorry to start this way, folks,
but it's uh, we just got a more dire warning
about how much worse is gonna get for air travel
in this country if the shutdown continues rose. They are
just going to flat out every day start canceling a
number of flights. This is now, God, I didn't think
(00:32):
it was gonna get this far. We keep hearing things,
but now this, this is a new major wrinkle.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
And it begins tomorrow, correct, starting Friday, folks.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
The yes, folks, starting tomorrow. You're gonna have to check
because it's gonna be random, and we don't know what
airports we're gonna get into all this, but they are
going to flat out start just canceling a certain number
of flights, and the number of thousands. It looks like
every day, daily, Yes, every single day. We will get
into that. Also, You and I struggle. I mean, it's
(01:00):
a lot of pressure for the person sitting in the
passenger seat when you're driving somebody else is driving and
you say hey, I need directions. Which way do I go?
I'll be making the left. When is the turn coming? Maybe?
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Is it right here? Or is it the next turn?
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I know you felt that pressure before, but that pressure
is gonna come off because we have a new AI assistant.
Who is they say, robes going to serve and feel
like you got somebody sitting in the seat next to
you and all you got to say is hey, where
do we go?
Speaker 4 (01:26):
And they're gonna answer.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Is the turn right here? Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
It is like they'll be able to actually communicate with
you like an AI passenger. So this is a backseat
driver that actually knows what they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Hey, you know us men, we still won't listen, but
we will get it. We'll explain that as always, folks.
Top right corner of your Apple podcast app, where you
see our show page, just click that button that says follow.
You can get our updates coming to you all the time.
Also on the run this morning, we are waiting on
scotis clemency for a death row inmate. The Mexican press
presses charges the richest man in the world is up
(01:57):
for a raise. Funny money is floating around Florida Paris,
high fashion and sheen.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Apparently don't go together.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Also terror, rests and a typhoon to tell you about
this morning, but robes, we do have to start with
what's happening in this.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Gay that's right first up on the run. Everybody, listen up.
This is a major air travel alert that is guaranteed
to make the current chaos of shutdown travel even more frustrating.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the administration will start reducing
daily flights in the United States by up to ten
percent starting tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
That is thousands of flights, folks. We have an average
forty to forty five thousand flights in this country every
single day.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Ten percent. Do the math.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So somebody who's flying tomorrow, we don't know who it is,
your flight is just going to get canceled.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Lucky us.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Did you see we already got an email from the
airline we're flying, we're actually flying on American airlines already
warning us to check christ that they couldn't it wasn't
their control, under their control, but just to be aware.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, So that point is a lot of the airlines
don't want to know what to do. It's out of
their hands, because this plan is supposed to start tomorrow.
It's going to reduce flights at forty of the highest
volume airports, but they haven't designated which ones are going
to be impacted first. We're supposed to get those details today. Now,
Sean Duffy, how is he now the most high profile
(03:23):
and famous member of the cabinet. It's transportation secretary. He
warned previously that they might have to start closing airspace
if the shutdown continues, as air traffic controllers continue to
call out sick and higher.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
And higher numbers.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
And it's understandable these air traffic controllers are not being
paid during the shutdown, and today actually marks the one
month anniversary since controllers received their last paychecks, so they're
now down two paychecks.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Correct about that in your life?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yeah, but most people sitting and listening, if you go
a month and money is not coming into your home,
that's just not going to work, right.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
I Mean, they tell you to have a couple months
salary saved and reserved for emergencies, but some people can't
afford to do that. They don't have that luxury. And
by the way, even before this shutdown, the FAA was
already down two thousand air traffic controllers. So add to
everyone calling out sick, and you've got a disaster on
your hands.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
All right, I want to continue on the run here
with a disaster we actually did see this week in
Louisville death Hole. There has risen from that fiery ups
cargo plane crash happened. Yeah, I was yesterday. It was
on Tuesday's day and Tuesday went.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
It happened.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Twelve people now confirmed dead, up to twenty were injured,
and several people this morning as of this recording, are
still unaccounted.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
For, investigators say.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
And that video that so many people have already looked at,
it shows the left engine catching fire as the plane
was taking off from Louisville International Airport Tuesday evening, and
that engine actually fell off at some point. The black
boxes have been recovered, and of course an investigation is ongoing.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
You said those images, They have a picture of it.
The engine is sitting on the day in the grassy
area on the tarmac. Sad, I'll continuing on the run
here now. A federal judge overseeing the criminal case of
former FBI director James Comy, while he's not hiding his
frustration and annoyance at the Department of Justice. The judge
accused the DOJ of taking an indict first, investigate second
(05:20):
his words approach to the criminal case against James Combe.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
The judge ordered prosecutors to hand over evidence seize during
the investigation by the end of the day today. Comy's
attorneys had complained they have not been able to adequately
defend their client because they haven't had access to very
important information and evidence. Comy attended the hearing, by the way,
but he did not speak.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
He has pleaded not guilty to charges of lying to
Congress in twenty twenty. He and his lawyers have said
this is a vindictive prosecution ordered by President Trump seeking
revenge from his political enemies.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Next up on the Run and now we wait on
a decision from the Supreme Court. The president calls literally
life or death for our country. The court hurt arguments yesterday.
It's a case challenging the centerpiece of Trump's second term agenda.
We're talking about tariffs is so called Liberation Day tariffs
on other countries. It's being challenged by a number of groups,
(06:13):
including states and private businesses, who argue the president doesn't
have the legal authority to issue tariffs.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Now, Justices on these six to three conservative leaning court
raised concerns about that presidential authority during the legal arguments yesterday,
and the legal experts out there not us, will tell
you that justices seem poised to potentially deliver a loss
for the president when they issue a decision. We don't
know though, when that decision is going to be. Oftentimes
(06:40):
we hear arguments, we have to wait till the next
year to hear a decision, but they are expected to
expedite to this decision. And they also brought up this
would be chaos because we've collected billions.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
We have to give it back.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
We kind of have to give refunds. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I think it was Amy Cony Barratt that was the
one that said this isn't absolute mess. She said during
the argument, this.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Would be a mess Yay, all right?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Next up on the run, Those arrests keep piling up
in the alleged ISIS inspired Halloween terror attack plot. After
two twenty year olds were arrested last week, the FBI
has now arrested to nineteen year olds from New Jersey
and a third teenager from Michigan, bringing the total number
of arrests to five now.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
One of those New Jersey nineteen year olds name is
Milo Cerat, charged with transmitting violent anti Semitic interstate threats.
Another nineteen year old, Tomas Khan Guzel, was arrested at
Newark Airport. He was about to bord a plane to
Istanbul on his way to Syria. One of his flight
was on time at Newark. Gazelle is charged with conspiring
(07:44):
to provide material support to a terrorist organization.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
And then that third teenager, a nineteen year old Aob Nassaur,
was arrested in Dearborn, Michigan, in connection with.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Yes this alleged terror plot.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The group reportedly talked about an attack on the LGBTQ
plus community in Detroit. The FBI said the grew wanted
to mimic the twenty fifteen Paris Isis terror attack that
killed one hundred and thirty people.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Continuing on the run on this Friday Eve. Now, a
rare and surprising decision yesterday from a parole board considering
clemency for an inmate schedule to die by lethal injection
a week from today. To have the right successes now,
the Oklahoma board voted to grant clemency for Tremaine Wood,
effectively saying he should not be executed next week as scheduled.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
The forty six year old was convicted for the two
thousand and two stabbing death of a nineteen year old
man during a botched robbery, but Wood maintains it was
his accomplice, who was actually his brother, who was responsible
for the death. Would spoke at his parole hearing yesterday
via zoom, taking responsibility for his role in the robbery.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
The board voted three to.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Two recommending clemency, but the final decision rests with the
Oklahoma Governor, Kevin Still. We actually listened to this entire
clemency here yesterday. We have a full podcast on it,
and if you are interested in the story, which we
are because TikTok dot clock is ticking for next Thursday
as we await the governor's decision, But in the meantime,
(09:10):
if you'd like to get read up or into this story,
please check out that episode.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
We talked about how rare this is, so I looked
at Oklahoma Death Penalty Information Center that website you will.
They do great work, so it's a great place to
look clemency. How rare it is We know it's rare
since nineteen seventy six, since they brought back the death
penalty one hundred Oh yeah, I put it in there.
One hundred and twenty seven executions, only five clemencies since
(09:35):
nineteen seventy Wow.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Is that rare?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (09:38):
So our miles dropped when that decision came, and there
was reason for it. This just does not happen. Whant
to continue on the run now, and we're all familiar here.
We hear a state of emergency declared in this state
or that state, we know what that means. They call
it a state of calamity in the Philippines. I don't
know why. Hearing that hit a little differently, it sounds different.
State of calamity. It's essentially the same thing. But they
(10:00):
declared that in the Philippines after a powerful typhoon struck
that nation. At least one hundred and fourteen people confirmed dead,
another one hundred and twenty seven are missing.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
The storm its name is Typhoon Calameaggee.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I'm gonna go for it.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
But that storm hit the Philippines with the strength of
a Category four hurricane and it's the deadliest storm of
the year for the region. It's now making its way
to Vietnam. It's expected to make landfall there late today
or tomorrow. And unfortunately, there is another storm that is
forming and could once again hit the Philippines next week.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Continuing on the run here now, the president of Mexico
is pressing charges against a man who groped her in
an incident that was caught on camera and went everywhere.
President Shinebaum, the first female president of Mexico, was walking
from one meeting to the next through the streets of
Mexico City this week when a man put his arm
around her, try to kiss her, and rose even put
(10:56):
his hand on her chest. Now, for us here in
the US to see a president just walking down the street,
people were all around she does. This doesn't have a
huge security detail. That's not what would go down in
the United States. This video is wildly disturbing.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
It's true, and in Mexico of all places. I'm surprised
she feels okay doing that, Yes, given the state of
things there.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
But I loved what she said.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Sean Baum says, she is pressing charges on behalf of
other women.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
And here's what you said.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
If this happens to the president, where does that leave
all the young women in our country. No man has
the right to abuse women's personal space. I know I
have chills from head to toe hearing that. I love
that she gave that specific reason. But yes, there are
questions about her security and about whether or not she
should be walking down the street and giving people that
(11:47):
physical access to her.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
But it's nothing new for her.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think it's wonderful that she does it. But you
just can't do it. Seems like one of those things
you can't do it.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
You can't say you can't on a sad state of
where we are in this world.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
But that's just the truth.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
And the video is to see a man. She says
she thinks he was drunk, he was drinking, fine, whatever,
but he lives his disgusting touches the breast of the
president of Mexico.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
No, and I'm so happy she is pressing charges.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yes, sorry, we'll stay with us folks on this Friday
Eve run. When we come back. People love sheen the
low budget fashion. Everybody but Paris will explain what happened
when the store tried to open there. Also, we know
Elon is the richest man in the world. The rich
possibly about to get much much richer today. Also, you
(12:35):
ain't rich in Florida if you got your hands on
some of these fake one hundred dollar bills. Yes, some
movie money is showing up in Florida. And would you
trust an AI navigator in the passenger seat next to you,
not me? All right, we continue on this Thursday, even
(13:00):
you all tell me? Is it she or is it
she In? Because I just asked Roeboch and she said, well,
I think is this or it could be that? So
I don't feel great about it.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
But you know, this.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Online retailer sheen It has opened its first permanent physical
store in the world. It's in Paris. It opened yesterday,
not going great, already not going great. Within an hour
of the store officially opening, the French government initiated legal
action against the retailer after authority say it was discovered
(13:30):
that childlike sex dolls were available for purchase.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
On the site.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
The popular Chinese online retailer, known for producing inexpensive knockoffs,
has long been criticized for its labor practices and environmental impacts,
so that, combined with the sex doll controversy, made for
an inauspicious grand opening in Paris. In fact, protesters camped
out over night so they could be there when the
stores opened, alongside a lot of shoppers that were in
(13:58):
line for the store to open as well. So that's
a fun confluence of folks there.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I didn't know they've only had pop ups before, But
this thing is a can you imagine everybody would be
upset any retailer in New York if you say a
Shean store is coming, that's competition and you know people
are going to flock.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
To that store.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Yeah, people are pushing back on this company continuing here
on the run. The richest man in the world could
get a raise today, and some would argue he might
deserve it. We're talking about Elon. But Tesla investors are
set to vote today on a pay package that could
end up making Elon must the world's first trillionaire, and.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
If they don't approve it, the company worries he might leave.
The package would grant Mosque hundreds of additional shares of
Tesla stock, and if the company is able to hit
certain financial markers over the next ten years, the value
of his shares is expected to exceed one trillion dollars.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
That is incredible to think there's something about it as
almost disgusting. There are other parts of it thinking, hey,
it's a free markets catalut and what we do and
what a talent that they think he's worth that and
they expect them to get it. Some have already said
we're not going to vote for it, but it is
expected to go forward. Wow, I continue on the run.
Now for the rest of us, check your bills because
(15:10):
you might actually be broker than you think if you're
in Florida, because some of your money and your pocket
might not be real money. We talk about funny money
floating around that State authorities in Florida are warning people
to take a closer look at any cash you receive
because counterfeit movie money is circulating in Florida.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Specifically, fake bills that are meant for Hollywood movie productions
have shown up in parts of Florida, in particular in
the Lower Keys and Key West. The bills, which have
been seen in hundreds and in twenties, are clearly marked
as fake, but if you're just glancing, you might miss it.
I mean, really, I've seen the pictures. They do look
very similar.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Yeah, the bills say though this is not legal tender
right there on the front What's more, it also says
right there on the front for motion picture purposes. Also,
if you miss that, it also says movie money. So
how are people being fooled? Well, if you can imagine, folks,
it looks exactly like a one hundred dollars bill, and
(16:09):
it's just if you look at your one hundred and
some of the writing on it. They put the warning
saying it's not legal tender in a place in the
same font as the writing on an actual one hundred
dollars bill. So it just looks like it's naturally there.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Unless you're reading it, you wouldn't know.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
You'd have to stop and read and pay attention. So
they don't know how it got into circulation. But check
your money for this.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Oh my goodness, all right, for the final leg of
our run. Navigating your next road trip is about to
get a little easier and a lot safer, according to
Google Maps. The company says it's new AI technology will
be like having artificial intelligence sitting right next to you
in the passenger seat.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
So this is how it was going to work. They say,
You'll just be able to ask Google Maps about your journey.
No more fumbling around with the phone while driving, which
is dangerous, so it will apparently be like having a
conversation with an insightful passenger, that's what they say, who
can guy you to your destination and also recommend places
to eat, shop or sight see.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Along the way. I assume it'll tell you where to.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Get guess, yeah, everything you need to know about your trip.
So the AI features will also make the navigation, they say,
more precise, calling out landmarks before turns instead of just
distance alerts, like instead of seeing in twenty feet and
fifty feet and sometimes that's confusing for people who are
logistically challenged like myself, so instead it'll say, like, you know,
after you know the Starbucks on your left, turn right
(17:29):
or whatever. But there will be built in safeguards to
prevent maps from sending drivers down the wrong road as well.
And by the way, Google Maps is used by more
than two billion people around the world. They say that
these new AI capabilities will be available in the coming weeks.
It gave some examples of things like you can literally
be having a conversation with Google Maps while you're driving,
(17:49):
so you could ask Google Maps, hey, is this is
the example they gave. Is there a budget friendly restaurant
with vegan options along my route, something with a couple
of something within a couple of miles.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
And I don't want to travel with that person anyway, I.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Know, I thought, Really that's the example.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Yes, but you can ask basically Google Maps anything for
something around your route and they will send you in
the right Drea.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Don't they tell us?
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Right? You're supposed we see legal briefs that are wrong
because people use AI. Kids are turning in papers that
are wrong because of AI. So now you want me
to one hundred trust AI to get me where I'm
going on my journey.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I mean I kind of already do though, trust Google Maps.
I mean I just plunk, you know, plug in what
I where I need to go, and I just follow it.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
And that's why we end up lost.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Ah ha haha.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Here is our quote of the day as we wrap
up this Thursday Eve morning run.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
It's our Gandhi week.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
So this one is another one from Gandhi trying to
find some more obscure ones, things you might not have
heard because we all know the obvious ones. Peace is
not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope
with it.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Oh yeah, oh god, yeah, nothing, Well, you consider every
single day of your life. Nothing really changes. You deal
with the same shit. It's just a matter of what
your capacity is for dealing with it.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Today. I should get enough rests. Is this other thing
going on? How do you feel?
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Yeah, but I do think people think, just give me
some peace, Like, can there just be peace?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
No, you have to make the peace.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
You have to choose the piece, and that's your mental space,
in your head. That's where peace exists. It doesn't exist
outside of you, it exists within you. And I do
appreciate that. So peace is not the absence of conflict,
but the ability to cope with it. Gandhi, thank you
for giving us so many insightful directions into our life.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Thank you for running with us. Everyone.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ. Holmes. We'll see y'll soon.
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, Welcome to Morning Run. It's Thursday, November sixth
I'm Amy Robots.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And I'm TJ Holmes and sorry to start this way, folks,
but it's uh, we just got a more dire warning
about how much worse is gonna get for air travel
in this country if the shutdown continues rose. They are
just going to flat out every day start canceling a
number of flights. This is now, God, I didn't think
(00:32):
it was gonna get this far. We keep hearing things,
but now this, this is a new major wrinkle.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
And it begins tomorrow, correct, starting Friday, folks.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
The yes, folks, starting tomorrow. You're gonna have to check
because it's gonna be random, and we don't know what
airports we're gonna get into all this, but they are
going to flat out start just canceling a certain number
of flights, and the number of thousands. It looks like
every day, daily, Yes, every single day. We will get
into that. Also, You and I struggle. I mean, it's
(01:00):
a lot of pressure for the person sitting in the
passenger seat when you're driving somebody else is driving and
you say hey, I need directions. Which way do I go?
I'll be making the left. When is the turn coming? Maybe?
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Is it right here? Or is it the next turn?
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I know you felt that pressure before, but that pressure
is gonna come off because we have a new AI assistant.
Who is they say, robes going to serve and feel
like you got somebody sitting in the seat next to
you and all you got to say is hey, where
do we go?
Speaker 4 (01:26):
And they're gonna answer.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Is the turn right here? Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
It is like they'll be able to actually communicate with
you like an AI passenger. So this is a backseat
driver that actually knows what they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Hey, you know us men, we still won't listen, but
we will get it. We'll explain that as always, folks.
Top right corner of your Apple podcast app, where you
see our show page, just click that button that says follow.
You can get our updates coming to you all the time.
Also on the run this morning, we are waiting on
scotis clemency for a death row inmate. The Mexican press
presses charges the richest man in the world is up
(01:57):
for a raise. Funny money is floating around Florida Paris,
high fashion and sheen.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Apparently don't go together.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Also terror, rests and a typhoon to tell you about
this morning, but robes, we do have to start with
what's happening in this.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Gay that's right first up on the run. Everybody, listen up.
This is a major air travel alert that is guaranteed
to make the current chaos of shutdown travel even more frustrating.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the administration will start reducing
daily flights in the United States by up to ten
percent starting tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
That is thousands of flights, folks. We have an average
forty to forty five thousand flights in this country every
single day.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Ten percent. Do the math.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So somebody who's flying tomorrow, we don't know who it is,
your flight is just going to get canceled.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Lucky us.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Did you see we already got an email from the
airline we're flying, we're actually flying on American airlines already
warning us to check christ that they couldn't it wasn't
their control, under their control, but just to be aware.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, So that point is a lot of the airlines
don't want to know what to do. It's out of
their hands, because this plan is supposed to start tomorrow.
It's going to reduce flights at forty of the highest
volume airports, but they haven't designated which ones are going
to be impacted first. We're supposed to get those details today. Now,
Sean Duffy, how is he now the most high profile
(03:23):
and famous member of the cabinet. It's transportation secretary. He
warned previously that they might have to start closing airspace
if the shutdown continues, as air traffic controllers continue to
call out sick and higher.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
And higher numbers.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
And it's understandable these air traffic controllers are not being
paid during the shutdown, and today actually marks the one
month anniversary since controllers received their last paychecks, so they're
now down two paychecks.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Correct about that in your life?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yeah, but most people sitting and listening, if you go
a month and money is not coming into your home,
that's just not going to work, right.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
I Mean, they tell you to have a couple months
salary saved and reserved for emergencies, but some people can't
afford to do that. They don't have that luxury. And
by the way, even before this shutdown, the FAA was
already down two thousand air traffic controllers. So add to
everyone calling out sick, and you've got a disaster on
your hands.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
All right, I want to continue on the run here
with a disaster we actually did see this week in
Louisville death Hole. There has risen from that fiery ups
cargo plane crash happened. Yeah, I was yesterday. It was
on Tuesday's day and Tuesday went.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
It happened.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Twelve people now confirmed dead, up to twenty were injured,
and several people this morning as of this recording, are
still unaccounted.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
For, investigators say.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
And that video that so many people have already looked at,
it shows the left engine catching fire as the plane
was taking off from Louisville International Airport Tuesday evening, and
that engine actually fell off at some point. The black
boxes have been recovered, and of course an investigation is ongoing.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
You said those images, They have a picture of it.
The engine is sitting on the day in the grassy
area on the tarmac. Sad, I'll continuing on the run
here now. A federal judge overseeing the criminal case of
former FBI director James Comy, while he's not hiding his
frustration and annoyance at the Department of Justice. The judge
accused the DOJ of taking an indict first, investigate second
(05:20):
his words approach to the criminal case against James Combe.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
The judge ordered prosecutors to hand over evidence seize during
the investigation by the end of the day today. Comy's
attorneys had complained they have not been able to adequately
defend their client because they haven't had access to very
important information and evidence. Comy attended the hearing, by the way,
but he did not speak.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
He has pleaded not guilty to charges of lying to
Congress in twenty twenty. He and his lawyers have said
this is a vindictive prosecution ordered by President Trump seeking
revenge from his political enemies.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Next up on the Run and now we wait on
a decision from the Supreme Court. The president calls literally
life or death for our country. The court hurt arguments yesterday.
It's a case challenging the centerpiece of Trump's second term agenda.
We're talking about tariffs is so called Liberation Day tariffs
on other countries. It's being challenged by a number of groups,
(06:13):
including states and private businesses, who argue the president doesn't
have the legal authority to issue tariffs.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Now, Justices on these six to three conservative leaning court
raised concerns about that presidential authority during the legal arguments yesterday,
and the legal experts out there not us, will tell
you that justices seem poised to potentially deliver a loss
for the president when they issue a decision. We don't
know though, when that decision is going to be. Oftentimes
(06:40):
we hear arguments, we have to wait till the next
year to hear a decision, but they are expected to
expedite to this decision. And they also brought up this
would be chaos because we've collected billions.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
We have to give it back.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
We kind of have to give refunds. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I think it was Amy Cony Barratt that was the
one that said this isn't absolute mess. She said during
the argument, this.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Would be a mess Yay, all right?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Next up on the run, Those arrests keep piling up
in the alleged ISIS inspired Halloween terror attack plot. After
two twenty year olds were arrested last week, the FBI
has now arrested to nineteen year olds from New Jersey
and a third teenager from Michigan, bringing the total number
of arrests to five now.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
One of those New Jersey nineteen year olds name is
Milo Cerat, charged with transmitting violent anti Semitic interstate threats.
Another nineteen year old, Tomas Khan Guzel, was arrested at
Newark Airport. He was about to bord a plane to
Istanbul on his way to Syria. One of his flight
was on time at Newark. Gazelle is charged with conspiring
(07:44):
to provide material support to a terrorist organization.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
And then that third teenager, a nineteen year old Aob Nassaur,
was arrested in Dearborn, Michigan, in connection with.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Yes this alleged terror plot.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The group reportedly talked about an attack on the LGBTQ
plus community in Detroit. The FBI said the grew wanted
to mimic the twenty fifteen Paris Isis terror attack that
killed one hundred and thirty people.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Continuing on the run on this Friday Eve. Now, a
rare and surprising decision yesterday from a parole board considering
clemency for an inmate schedule to die by lethal injection
a week from today. To have the right successes now,
the Oklahoma board voted to grant clemency for Tremaine Wood,
effectively saying he should not be executed next week as scheduled.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
The forty six year old was convicted for the two
thousand and two stabbing death of a nineteen year old
man during a botched robbery, but Wood maintains it was
his accomplice, who was actually his brother, who was responsible
for the death. Would spoke at his parole hearing yesterday
via zoom, taking responsibility for his role in the robbery.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
The board voted three to.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Two recommending clemency, but the final decision rests with the
Oklahoma Governor, Kevin Still. We actually listened to this entire
clemency here yesterday. We have a full podcast on it,
and if you are interested in the story, which we
are because TikTok dot clock is ticking for next Thursday
as we await the governor's decision, But in the meantime,
(09:10):
if you'd like to get read up or into this story,
please check out that episode.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
We talked about how rare this is, so I looked
at Oklahoma Death Penalty Information Center that website you will.
They do great work, so it's a great place to
look clemency. How rare it is We know it's rare
since nineteen seventy six, since they brought back the death
penalty one hundred Oh yeah, I put it in there.
One hundred and twenty seven executions, only five clemencies since
(09:35):
nineteen seventy Wow.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Is that rare?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (09:38):
So our miles dropped when that decision came, and there
was reason for it. This just does not happen. Whant
to continue on the run now, and we're all familiar here.
We hear a state of emergency declared in this state
or that state, we know what that means. They call
it a state of calamity in the Philippines. I don't
know why. Hearing that hit a little differently, it sounds different.
State of calamity. It's essentially the same thing. But they
(10:00):
declared that in the Philippines after a powerful typhoon struck
that nation. At least one hundred and fourteen people confirmed dead,
another one hundred and twenty seven are missing.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
The storm its name is Typhoon Calameaggee.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I'm gonna go for it.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
But that storm hit the Philippines with the strength of
a Category four hurricane and it's the deadliest storm of
the year for the region. It's now making its way
to Vietnam. It's expected to make landfall there late today
or tomorrow. And unfortunately, there is another storm that is
forming and could once again hit the Philippines next week.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Continuing on the run here now, the president of Mexico
is pressing charges against a man who groped her in
an incident that was caught on camera and went everywhere.
President Shinebaum, the first female president of Mexico, was walking
from one meeting to the next through the streets of
Mexico City this week when a man put his arm
around her, try to kiss her, and rose even put
(10:56):
his hand on her chest. Now, for us here in
the US to see a president just walking down the street,
people were all around she does. This doesn't have a
huge security detail. That's not what would go down in
the United States. This video is wildly disturbing.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
It's true, and in Mexico of all places. I'm surprised
she feels okay doing that, Yes, given the state of
things there.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
But I loved what she said.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Sean Baum says, she is pressing charges on behalf of
other women.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
And here's what you said.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
If this happens to the president, where does that leave
all the young women in our country. No man has
the right to abuse women's personal space. I know I
have chills from head to toe hearing that. I love
that she gave that specific reason. But yes, there are
questions about her security and about whether or not she
should be walking down the street and giving people that
(11:47):
physical access to her.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
But it's nothing new for her.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think it's wonderful that she does it. But you
just can't do it. Seems like one of those things
you can't do it.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
You can't say you can't on a sad state of
where we are in this world.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
But that's just the truth.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
And the video is to see a man. She says
she thinks he was drunk, he was drinking, fine, whatever,
but he lives his disgusting touches the breast of the
president of Mexico.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
No, and I'm so happy she is pressing charges.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yes, sorry, we'll stay with us folks on this Friday
Eve run. When we come back. People love sheen the
low budget fashion. Everybody but Paris will explain what happened
when the store tried to open there. Also, we know
Elon is the richest man in the world. The rich
possibly about to get much much richer today. Also, you
(12:35):
ain't rich in Florida if you got your hands on
some of these fake one hundred dollar bills. Yes, some
movie money is showing up in Florida. And would you
trust an AI navigator in the passenger seat next to you,
not me? All right, we continue on this Thursday, even
(13:00):
you all tell me? Is it she or is it
she In? Because I just asked Roeboch and she said, well,
I think is this or it could be that? So
I don't feel great about it.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
But you know, this.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Online retailer sheen It has opened its first permanent physical
store in the world. It's in Paris. It opened yesterday,
not going great, already not going great. Within an hour
of the store officially opening, the French government initiated legal
action against the retailer after authority say it was discovered
(13:30):
that childlike sex dolls were available for purchase.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
On the site.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
The popular Chinese online retailer, known for producing inexpensive knockoffs,
has long been criticized for its labor practices and environmental impacts,
so that, combined with the sex doll controversy, made for
an inauspicious grand opening in Paris. In fact, protesters camped
out over night so they could be there when the
stores opened, alongside a lot of shoppers that were in
(13:58):
line for the store to open as well. So that's
a fun confluence of folks there.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I didn't know they've only had pop ups before, But
this thing is a can you imagine everybody would be
upset any retailer in New York if you say a
Shean store is coming, that's competition and you know people
are going to flock.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
To that store.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Yeah, people are pushing back on this company continuing here
on the run. The richest man in the world could
get a raise today, and some would argue he might
deserve it. We're talking about Elon. But Tesla investors are
set to vote today on a pay package that could
end up making Elon must the world's first trillionaire, and.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
If they don't approve it, the company worries he might leave.
The package would grant Mosque hundreds of additional shares of
Tesla stock, and if the company is able to hit
certain financial markers over the next ten years, the value
of his shares is expected to exceed one trillion dollars.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
That is incredible to think there's something about it as
almost disgusting. There are other parts of it thinking, hey,
it's a free markets catalut and what we do and
what a talent that they think he's worth that and
they expect them to get it. Some have already said
we're not going to vote for it, but it is
expected to go forward. Wow, I continue on the run.
Now for the rest of us, check your bills because
(15:10):
you might actually be broker than you think if you're
in Florida, because some of your money and your pocket
might not be real money. We talk about funny money
floating around that State authorities in Florida are warning people
to take a closer look at any cash you receive
because counterfeit movie money is circulating in Florida.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Specifically, fake bills that are meant for Hollywood movie productions
have shown up in parts of Florida, in particular in
the Lower Keys and Key West. The bills, which have
been seen in hundreds and in twenties, are clearly marked
as fake, but if you're just glancing, you might miss it.
I mean, really, I've seen the pictures. They do look
very similar.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Yeah, the bills say though this is not legal tender
right there on the front What's more, it also says
right there on the front for motion picture purposes. Also,
if you miss that, it also says movie money. So
how are people being fooled? Well, if you can imagine, folks,
it looks exactly like a one hundred dollars bill, and
(16:09):
it's just if you look at your one hundred and
some of the writing on it. They put the warning
saying it's not legal tender in a place in the
same font as the writing on an actual one hundred
dollars bill. So it just looks like it's naturally there.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Unless you're reading it, you wouldn't know.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
You'd have to stop and read and pay attention. So
they don't know how it got into circulation. But check
your money for this.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Oh my goodness, all right, for the final leg of
our run. Navigating your next road trip is about to
get a little easier and a lot safer, according to
Google Maps. The company says it's new AI technology will
be like having artificial intelligence sitting right next to you
in the passenger seat.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
So this is how it was going to work. They say,
You'll just be able to ask Google Maps about your journey.
No more fumbling around with the phone while driving, which
is dangerous, so it will apparently be like having a
conversation with an insightful passenger, that's what they say, who
can guy you to your destination and also recommend places
to eat, shop or sight see.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Along the way. I assume it'll tell you where to.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Get guess, yeah, everything you need to know about your trip.
So the AI features will also make the navigation, they say,
more precise, calling out landmarks before turns instead of just
distance alerts, like instead of seeing in twenty feet and
fifty feet and sometimes that's confusing for people who are
logistically challenged like myself, so instead it'll say, like, you know,
after you know the Starbucks on your left, turn right
(17:29):
or whatever. But there will be built in safeguards to
prevent maps from sending drivers down the wrong road as well.
And by the way, Google Maps is used by more
than two billion people around the world. They say that
these new AI capabilities will be available in the coming weeks.
It gave some examples of things like you can literally
be having a conversation with Google Maps while you're driving,
(17:49):
so you could ask Google Maps, hey, is this is
the example they gave. Is there a budget friendly restaurant
with vegan options along my route, something with a couple
of something within a couple of miles.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
And I don't want to travel with that person anyway, I.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Know, I thought, Really that's the example.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Yes, but you can ask basically Google Maps anything for
something around your route and they will send you in
the right Drea.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Don't they tell us?
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Right? You're supposed we see legal briefs that are wrong
because people use AI. Kids are turning in papers that
are wrong because of AI. So now you want me
to one hundred trust AI to get me where I'm
going on my journey.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I mean I kind of already do though, trust Google Maps.
I mean I just plunk, you know, plug in what
I where I need to go, and I just follow it.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
And that's why we end up lost.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Ah ha haha.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Here is our quote of the day as we wrap
up this Thursday Eve morning run.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
It's our Gandhi week.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
So this one is another one from Gandhi trying to
find some more obscure ones, things you might not have
heard because we all know the obvious ones. Peace is
not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope
with it.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Oh yeah, oh god, yeah, nothing, Well, you consider every
single day of your life. Nothing really changes. You deal
with the same shit. It's just a matter of what
your capacity is for dealing with it.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Today. I should get enough rests. Is this other thing
going on? How do you feel?
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Yeah, but I do think people think, just give me
some peace, Like, can there just be peace?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
No, you have to make the peace.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
You have to choose the piece, and that's your mental space,
in your head. That's where peace exists. It doesn't exist
outside of you, it exists within you. And I do
appreciate that. So peace is not the absence of conflict,
but the ability to cope with it. Gandhi, thank you
for giving us so many insightful directions into our life.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Thank you for running with us. Everyone.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ. Holmes. We'll see y'll soon.
