Speaker 1 (00:01):
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, we made it to Friday. Welcome to Morning Run.
It is Friday, October tenth. I'm Amy Robot.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
What kind of week did you have? You seem surprised
we're you been here.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I'm just I'm celebrating Friday. I love a Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well, all right, folks, on this Friday, I'm TJ. Holmes.
And there is a lot a lot going on in news,
from a Lakers fan suing Lebron, the rap battle between
Kendrick and Drake finally being over. We lost dear Sister Jean.
There's a grocery store that says, come on, bring you guns.
The halftime show Bad Bunny has some competition, and then
(00:42):
there's updates on what's happening on the streets of Chicago
and also the President's health and the shutdown. All this.
But we're gonna start rodes with what is a developing
story that we got just a short time before we
started recording, which is all eyes attention has been on
the Nobel Peace Pride and President Trump just this week,
(01:03):
in the past forty eight hours, has ended a war,
at least being given credit for it. So the announcement
was made about the Nobel Peace Prize winner.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
That's correct. It happened earlier this morning in Oslo, Norway.
All eyes, certainly the presidents, we would imagine eyes were
on that press conference as the organization made their announcement
of the Nobel Peace Prize winner of twenty twenty five.
Her name is Maria Carina Machado. She is Venezuela's opposition leader,
(01:34):
and probably some disappointment at the White.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
House, probably a lot, because Lota will tell you that
this was a public and who could imagine how private
a campaign it was for him to get the Nobel
Peace Prize or several reasons why he did not. But
at least Machado here, I mean from all intents and purposes,
as a woman who continues to have her life threatened
because of the work she does, and has been in
(01:59):
hiding for the past year and has continued to be
an opposition leader. They were even asked about it today.
Are you worried about her safety even more so now
now that she's getting this attention, They said that was
one of the things that they take into consideration. However, Robes,
of course, the first question he was asked first or second.
It might have been. The first had to do with Trump.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
We say might have been because we were watching coverage
and they dumped out of it right when the questions
started to be asked for, like, wait, they're obviously going
to be asking about President Trump first and foremost, which
is what happened, And so when they were asked, this
was the response. In the long history of the Nobel
Peace Prize, I think this committee have seen any and
every type of campaign and media attention. We received thousands
(02:42):
and thousands of letters every year from people wanting to
say what for them leads to peace. The Committee sits
in a room filled with the portraits of all laureates,
and that room is filled with both courage and integrity.
We base only our decision on the work and will
of Alfred Nobel.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, the guy from the Nobel Committee never mentioned Trump's
name at any point during the press conference. I believe
that was the only question he got specifically about it.
I was asking you right before we were starting. I said,
I see a headline that says the White House has reacted.
I was a little surprised, and I was curious what
the reaction was. But yes, the White House has reacted
(03:19):
to the President not getting the Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
That's right. The White House spokesperson posted this on tex
Stephen Chung. He said President Trump will continue making peace deals,
ending wars and saving lives. He has the heart of
a humanitarian and there will never be anyone like him
who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will.
The Nobel Committee proved they placed politics over peace.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
They had me up until the last line. What does
that mean that it really does say you didn't pick
our guy, therefore your being political. I don't think anyone's
arguing about this woman's credentials in terms of what she's
been fighting for in Venezuela.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, she, as you said, put her life on the
line and continues to do so. And even when she
realized she couldn't be on the ballot to try and
overtake the situation there in Venezuela, she threw all of
her support behind a candidate who was so she was
selfless even in her determination and continues to be to
try and bring peace to Venezuela and have fair and
(04:20):
transparent elections, which the world agrees did not happen in Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Okay, so of course we've heard the President say he's
ended eight now conflicts is how he often puts it.
He's ended eight wars and the one he's working on
still as to do with Russian and Ukraine. But a
lot of folks saying, well, all this work, he's done well.
The nominations for this year's Nobel Peace Prize were due
at the end of January. He had been in office
(04:45):
but three weeks at that point. Maybe if somebody submitted
his name by then, I don't know. We don't know,
because the committee gets hundreds of nominations, they actually don't
make it public. They don't make it public. However, when
did who went to the White House and pulled out
the nomination. I didn't think it was that early in
the year, but I think it might have been met
(05:06):
in Yahoo who pulled it out as kind of a
scene and here's your Nobel letter for your nomination. But
they just everybody assumed he's I guess an exception should
be made or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Well, and truly, this peace deal in the Middle East
still has to actually come to full fruition. It looks
like we're headed that way. Celebrations are underway, but we
know it's tenuous and we have to wait and see.
So look, if they think he's a contender, there's always
next year. So we will keep our eyes on twenty
twenty six. Next up on the Run, the Israeli government
(05:40):
has accepted. Yes, as we talk about that seas fire,
they have accepted the plan. Israeli troops have started to
withdraw from Gaza, and all hostages are expected to be
released in a matter of days. The ceasefire plan seems
to be moving forward, and hope is holding that the
end of this two year war is finally here.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yeah, hope is a whole aren't we used to having
hope and then it all gets dashed in a matter
of days. This has been several days now we're going
the right direction. The acceptance of the deal triggers the ceasefire,
though there were reports of some late hour Israeli airstrikes overnight.
Right now, forty eight hostages remain, twenty are believed to
be alive.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
So we will keep our eye on that developing situation.
But in the meantime, all eyes continue to be on Washington,
where it's a ghost town. Next up on the Run,
it's day ten of the government shutdown. No relief in sight,
as in, literally everybody left Washington and went home. The
Senate won't be back until three pm on Tuesday, after
(06:40):
remaining deadlight over dueling bills for the seventh time on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Who gets to do that? I'm just head home. You
didn't finish your assignment too much, and I'm gonna go home.
They've I guaranteed a certain number of days of this
shutdown will continue. We got three Democrats who crossed the
aisle to try and push the House passed bill through
the That's exactly the same number since the shutdown began
last week. While that went great, maybe next time on Tuesday. No,
(07:08):
not one lawmaker has changed a vote in all the
howeany has it been six or seven?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Seven?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Seven? Not a single vote has changed also unchanged. Both
sides have been very active with the media, you know,
blaming each other.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That's the way they've spent most of their time in
front of the cameras pointing the finger at the other side.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
We lod I actually want to watch the Sunday morning
show This is sport now because they have the talking
points and they sit in they say the exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Speaking of sport, how about this? The Trump administration has
ratcheted up the pressure on Democrats starting yesterday. On Thursday,
they began airing a video at this is amazing at
airports across the country, which, as we've been reporting, have
experienced significant delays in ground stops because of the air
traft for controller situation, they have considered essential employees, but
(07:55):
a number of them have been calling out sick, which
has brought the airport to a grinding halt. So in
this video, while people are waiting and they're angry and
they're annoyed that their flight isn't taking off, you can
watch a video from Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nome who
tells weary travelers Democrats in Congress refuse to fund the
(08:15):
federal government and because of this, many of our operations
are impacted and most of our TSA employees are working
without pay. How's that to bring the message home?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
It might be illegal? Are you allowed to do that?
I mean she's working.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
For I guess you could get in line to sue
the Trump administration.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Oh my goodness, no, no, no, no, no, that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
My jaw dropped when I read that this morning.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
You might as well campaign at TSA line, just hand
out pamphlets. Democrats did this your weight brought to you
by the Democrats.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Right, And to the TSA employees who are working without payoff,
you can blame your Democratic Wow, yes, lawmaker, whoever that is.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
We'll continue on the run there now, first it was coming.
Now it's Latitia James, who Adam shift better watch out
because the Justice Department seems to be going down Trump's
publicly stated list of people he wants indicted. And yes,
New York Attorney General Letitia James was indicted yesterday by
a federal grandeur.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
James is the one, in case you don't remember, who
successfully went after Trump in court, winning a huge judgment
against him for fraud. That judgment was later thrown out.
What she's accused of in the indictment, mortgage related improprieties
sounds familiar. It seems to be working for them, at
least they tried that with Lisa Cook so far unsuccessfully though.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, I mean, black women just cannot fill out a mortgage, apparently,
according to Trump.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Oh my god. James has denied the allegations against her
and called the charges baseless.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Continue on the run now, hope the President is okay healthwise.
Now he's heading to Walter Reed Medical Center today. The
White House initially described this as his yearly checkup, but
his lab yearly check up was six months ago. So
these are what now we're calling these semi annuals.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
That's what Trump ended up having to clarify it and
calling it a semi annual exam. But that is very rare.
That's not protocol for a president. It's once a year,
So this is not This is very unusual. So Trump
told this to reporters. I think I'm in great shape,
but I'll let you know. When I'm around I like
to check always be early. It's a lesson for a
lot of people. Nothing wrong with that. Wait, wait, but
(10:27):
he's just saying when he's around the area, he likes
to check in to a Walter Read.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
That's what he said. But is he there for an
event or something? He's there for something else?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Well, it's you know, not so far from the White House.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
No, he has to be there, that's what he Surely
that's what he wants.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
No, So yes, this unusual second checkup has some eyebrows raised,
considering the White House announcement over the summer that Trump
had been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency. Photos showing swelling
in the President's legs did cast speculation about his health,
but according to medical experts, look, he's seventy eight years old.
This is not uncommon in older adults, and it certainly
(11:06):
as manageable as well, they say. The White House, by
the way, gave no further details on today's checkup beyond
the announcement of the checkup, which again they initially called
an annual checkup.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Okay, but hey, if you're in the neighborhood, Hey, I'm here,
might as well take a look under the hood.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Little extra blood work never hurt anybody, all right. Next
up on the run. They just got to Chicago and already,
and I must say, as predicted, the National Guard might
need to pack up and head out. A federal judge
has blocked the Trump administration from using Guard troops on
the streets of Chicago, where they had just arrived a
day or so before.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yeah, State of Illinois and the City of Chicago sue
to stop the deployment, and yesterday a judge sided with
them that there is no organized rebellion or unrest that
would justify the president's sending in the National Guard. But
the judge went as far as saying this about the
deployment of National Guard. She said it could lead to
civil unrest and that having them there quote adds fuel
(12:01):
to the fire that the Trump administration has started. The
administration says it will appeal this decision.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Woof Next up on the run. Another political ideological battle
is shaping up in Texas, and this one is about crosswalks,
in particular those really cute, colorful ones we have them
here in New York City. Governor Greg Abbott has ordered
that all rainbow crosswalks be removed within thirty days.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Of course, you can find rainbow crosswalks and cities across
the country which are simple public pride displays. Well, the
governor they're in Texas now says they are a misuse
robes of taxpayer money. And a statement said this, Texans
expect their taxpayer dollars to be used wisely, not advanced
political agendas on Texas roadways. Today, I directed the Texas
(12:49):
Department of Transportation to ensure Texas counties and cities remove
any and all political ideologies from our streets. And here's
the part that some people paid attention to. This is
a safety shoe ropes to keep Texans moving safely and
free from distraction, we must maintain a safe and consistent
transportation network across Texas. Got that?
Speaker 1 (13:10):
No, how about all the distracting billboards that line highways everywhere?
Give me a break. And by the way, speaking of
taxpayer dollars, can anyone just put out the fact that
having to remove it and then reapply it is a
further waste of taxpayer dollars if he's going down that road.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
See here's going to be The next issue is that
some of these are privately funded. So is it the
money or is the ideology?
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And I think we both know the answer.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
He's covering himself on both fronts. Well, stay with us here, folks.
On this Friday morning run. When we come back, there
is a grocery store actually robes it might be my favorite.
It is now telling folks go ahead bring your guns.
Also coming up, the controversy that is ensuing over at
(13:55):
CBS Studios. Also, finally, Kendrick and Drake put the be
to rest, and it took a federal judge to do it.
And we have a second halftime show in the works,
no idea, who's going to play it, and we have
lost maybe one of the most beloved stories in recent
March madness history.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Welcome back to your Friday morning run, and next up,
we're heading to Florida, where you can now openly carry
a firearm while shopping for groceries at the state's largest
supermarket chain, Publics. The company made the announcement following a
state appeals court ruling that Florida's ban on people openly
carrying firearms was unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Ban has been in place since nineteen eighty seven. Publics
released a statement Thursday saying Publics follows all federal, state,
and local laws treating customers with dignity and respect as
a founding belief at Publics, in any instance where a
customer creates a threatening, a or dangerous shopping experience, whether
they are openly carrying a firearm or not, we will
(15:06):
engage local law enforcement to protect our customers and associates.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Sounds like Public's has been a dangerous place to shop.
With that statement, I was kind of like I was
surprised by it.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Do you know this was my Atlanta grocery store.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I love Public Love Public same when I lived in
the South. That's all I went to.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I never had any issues there.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
I wasn't really concerned about my safety, but maybe now
I would be all right. Next up on the Run
a growing controversy over CBS studios. This story is a doozy,
so just get prepared. First. We got word Thursday that
CBS fired Mattlocke actor David del Rio and escorted him
off the set last week on the very day a
fellow actor alleged he sexually assaulted her near his trailer. Normally,
(15:50):
news outlets do not report the name of an alleged
sexual assault victim, but actor Leah Lewis went on social
media and named herself.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah, posted a photo of her and her mom on
Instagram and writing mom is here. We're moving forward in
love and strength. I am in good hands. Thank you
to everybody for any kind of support and care. Truly,
we're moving forward in strength. Keyword strength. Let that be
the takeaway. Whilthough Rio has not said anything publicly, his wife,
(16:18):
also an actress and chef, Catherine del Rio, who she
had something to say.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
She did so on her Instagram story and again, this
is the wife of the actor accused of sexual assault.
She briefly posted a zoomed in photo of Lewis's face
from her post with her mom and wrote, this is
the most disturbing human being I have ever met. She
deleted it a short while later, but then put up
another post with her own picture of her with her
(16:46):
own mom, mocking Lewis's post. That's the alleged sexual assault victim.
It read this mom is here. We're moving forward in
love and strength after what Leah did to our family.
Thank you for all the love and support.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
She the wife of the guy accused of sexual assault,
is mocking the alleged sexual assault victim.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Correct publicly correct?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
All right? I was making sure I was following. Matt
Locke continued filming after del Riel was fired, wrapping up
the first half of the season season two, and will
now go on hiatus through Thanksgiving. The creative team will
have to get creative. That's what they're paid to do, right,
writing off dale Riel's character in some way given the
sudden firing. Season two Matt Locke premieres this Sunday, October twelfth,
(17:34):
so he'll be gone at premiers. So it's just getting
started season two many episodes. Is that that he's going
to have to be in them.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
He is going to be in all of them. Oh yeah,
he is going to be in the first half of
the series, and then he is going to disappear because
he's been fired. But it's been interesting that CBS said
that they investigated the claims, but the same day she
made the claims is the same day he was escorted
off the set and fired. So it's unclear what evidence
they have or what they're saying their investigation showed. But
(18:05):
it was a quick decision. Yeah, more to come on
that for sure. Next up on the run though, well,
we had a lot coming here. And is it over?
The Drake Kendrick Lamar rap beef is done and it
was a judge who ended it. A federal judge. Throughout
Drake's defamation suit against Universal Music Group, which by the way,
is his own record label as well.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
The two guys happened to be represented by the saying
same label. Now he accused the label of defamation for
its role in promoting Kendrick Lamar's mega hit not Like Us.
The judge called the song a thought this was interesting rogues,
a non actionable opinion that Kendrick Lamar was giving and
it's not considered defamatory. The judge said this statements of
(18:48):
fact may assume the character of statements of opinion when
made in public debate. He did labor dispute or other
circumstances in which an audience may enternticipate the use of epithets,
fiery rhetoric, or hyperbole.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
In other words, it's a rat battle, bro or.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Is it politics? If you apply that to what our
politicians say to each other and how we end up
getting misled or maybe some say flat out lied to,
it's almost like, yeah, I made it, but you shouldn't
have assumed it was fact. Wow, when this judge made
so many things clear to me.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, so she said everything being said in a rat
battle is not supposed to be taken as fact. The
judge even called not like us a metaphorial killing blow.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
What I thought it was? That was pretty good?
Speaker 1 (19:42):
You liked it?
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Continuing Now, Bad Bunny has halftime competition robes turning point USA. Yes,
the organization started by Charlie Kirk, announced yesterday that it
was going to be putting on its own Super Bowl
halftime show.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
They call it the All American Halftime Show. They haven't
announced the list of performers yet. But might I suggest
or just wonder aloud if Lee Greenwood was going to
be a part of it all?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
He has to yes, you know he is maybe even headlining,
just to.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Just to guess. We'll just we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I Hey, we're doing this. It's another thing to split
the country. Don't we all come together in the super Bowl.
That's a fun time.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
We can all Look if that's the way they're going
to deal with something they're upset about, they want to
counter program. Okay, I mean, okay, that's at least it's
peaceful and at least it gives people a choice.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
The one thing we come together on we're splitting on.
Everybody agrees on the super Bowl. Don't what else do
Americans just like, oh yeah, we're all in for.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
The Olympics, maybe like Team USA. That's about the only
other thing I can think of.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Oh, I go all right, continuing on the run here
now the beloved oh Loyola team captain. She stole our
chaplain chaplain?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Wait, you said captain.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
I'm totally in a basketball march. Madness is letting you
know you know what she was team captain. I guess
I said it right the first time. Okay, how Yes,
she's the team chaplain. She's a team mascot and this morning, yes,
the team captain. She stole our hearts of course during
twenty eighteen's March Madness. She has now passed away at
(21:15):
the age of one hundred and six. Sister Jean, of course,
you know who we're talking about. One hundred and six
is impressive.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
What waitsu he even more about when she retired, the
enthusiastic nun always dressed in Loyola's burgundy and gold, became
a national celebrity given Loyola Cinderella's story that year making
it to the Final four for the first time in
fifty years, and her full name, because we just affectionately
call her Sister Jean, is Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Yeah. Loyola confirmed her death yesterday, saying this is a
tremendous loss of someone who touched the lives of so
many people. We appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers during this
difficult time. Just after Sister Jean's one hundred and sixth birthday,
which was this summer, the university announced that she was retiring. Yes,
she was.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Working still I was reading the letter she sent to
the students and faculty, like expressing her sadness, like she
finally had to retire at one hundred and six. She
was born in San Francisco. I just I love hearing this.
August twenty first, nineteen nineteen. Isn't that amazing? She was
a basketball player in her younger days before eventually becoming
(22:21):
a nun. Then she became a grade school teacher, where
she started girls' sports programs at the school. I love that,
before becoming an academic advisor for the Loyola men's basketball
team and then yes, later the team chaplain. She released
a memoir back in twenty twenty three, just two years ago,
entitled wake Up with Purpose What I've learned in my
(22:42):
first one hundred years.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
That makes me think how many people are qualified to
even name a book that because most people, how many
authors have put something out over who were one hundred
when they released it?
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Not many?
Speaker 2 (22:55):
So cool? This woman was such an impact and it's
hard to. Yes, it's sad, it's hard to she brought
so much joy and lived a beautiful life and the
impact she had. Yes, it's sad. You lose some moment.
Man I got nothing but smiles when you say, Sister Gene,
it's so true.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So yes, well we'll end this podcast this episode with
a quote that made me laugh. Yes from Sister Gene.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
All right, Well, next up on the run here, let's
go with Lebron James, a member of the Los Angeles Lakers,
is being sued by a Loss Angelus Lakers fan who
accuses King James of fraud and deception. The fan apparently
is pissed because he fell for Lebron's recent promotional stunt
in which he teased a second decision.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
This actually doesn't seem like a frivolous lawsuit to me. Oh,
many folks speculated that Lebron was going to retire, and
I think he wanted them to speculate that. Let's just
be honest. So they ran out and they bought tickets
to the final Laker home games, thinking they were securing
a place to see the Great Lebron's fine NBA game. However,
(24:02):
the second decision turned out to be an ad for Hennessy.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, so the fans says he was duped into spending
money on tickets and is now trying to take Lebron
to court. Now you might be waiting. Is he suing
him for some emotional distress? Is he's suing him for
millions of dollars maybe even one hundred though Nope, he
just wants his eight hundred and fifty five dollars and
sixty six cents back that he spent on the tickets.
(24:26):
That's not on it.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
That's why I don't think it's a frivolous lawsuit. I
think he actually has a point.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
All right.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
I'm curious. I didn't know what you were gonna say
about it.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Come on, it's on you, did you really?
Speaker 1 (24:37):
I think I get that there is such a thing
as personal responsibility boom, but there was deception involved.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
I mean people I can sue right now who fooled
me into something?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, like buying a lottery ticket, all right, because you
thought you were gonna win. All right, let's get on
with the quote of the day. The times are changing,
the weather's getting colder. We've all been and maybe complaining
about it because we love summer so much. But Sister Jean,
this sounds like something one of my parents would say.
I just love it. Get outside every day, no matter
(25:12):
the weather, The cold is good for you. Just bundle
up and you'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Yeah. Love your sister, Jean. I love that tough love
and support that one.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
It's so funny, like, oh, I love it. We start
to complain, Oh, it's so cold outside. You know what,
Get outside every day, no matter the weather. The cold
is good for you. Get your blood flowing. That's what
my dad would say, get your blood flowing. Just bundle
up and you'll be fine. I love that, sister, Jean.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
I love the idea of Yes, she's one hundred percent right.
There are plenty of times you and I sitting here
in a funk in the morning, I say, hey, let's
take a walk.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Thanks, get outside, get.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
By the water and get some inspiration. So love your sister, Jean.
I know there's a huge loss for Loyola, and it's
a huge loss, and I don't know what. They're probably
gonna do something special, hopefully for her. During March Madness
this year, she just right that you could probably name
I don't know how many athletes who made an impact
on March Madness, but you can name her, right. I
(26:09):
can name all. I'm a sports guy, but you can
name her. She stands out with grand Hill to me
and Scottie Thurman to me and right.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
It's that childlike enthusiasm she had for something she loved
and something she was passionate about a game that she
played and that she I mean, I love. There's so
many pictures. She was so little at the end. When
you get older, you get shorter and the like looming
tall basketball players and she's around in a huddle with them.
She comes up to their like their wastes, and it's
such a cute picture. She's so excited, she's so into it.
(26:39):
Anyone who is that kind of passion for life? More
of that place.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Those the most fun, Probably that image of how excited
the players were to be with her. It was an
obligation of photo. They just ran to her. They love
this woman. So again, thank you, Sister Jean for what
you gave us, and folks, we appreciate you as always
running with us.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Now I'm pet and I'm Amy Robot will run with
you really soon
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, we made it to Friday. Welcome to Morning Run.
It is Friday, October tenth. I'm Amy Robot.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
What kind of week did you have? You seem surprised
we're you been here.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I'm just I'm celebrating Friday. I love a Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well, all right, folks, on this Friday, I'm TJ. Holmes.
And there is a lot a lot going on in news,
from a Lakers fan suing Lebron, the rap battle between
Kendrick and Drake finally being over. We lost dear Sister Jean.
There's a grocery store that says, come on, bring you guns.
The halftime show Bad Bunny has some competition, and then
(00:42):
there's updates on what's happening on the streets of Chicago
and also the President's health and the shutdown. All this.
But we're gonna start rodes with what is a developing
story that we got just a short time before we
started recording, which is all eyes attention has been on
the Nobel Peace Pride and President Trump just this week,
(01:03):
in the past forty eight hours, has ended a war,
at least being given credit for it. So the announcement
was made about the Nobel Peace Prize winner.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
That's correct. It happened earlier this morning in Oslo, Norway.
All eyes, certainly the presidents, we would imagine eyes were
on that press conference as the organization made their announcement
of the Nobel Peace Prize winner of twenty twenty five.
Her name is Maria Carina Machado. She is Venezuela's opposition leader,
(01:34):
and probably some disappointment at the White.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
House, probably a lot, because Lota will tell you that
this was a public and who could imagine how private
a campaign it was for him to get the Nobel
Peace Prize or several reasons why he did not. But
at least Machado here, I mean from all intents and purposes,
as a woman who continues to have her life threatened
because of the work she does, and has been in
(01:59):
hiding for the past year and has continued to be
an opposition leader. They were even asked about it today.
Are you worried about her safety even more so now
now that she's getting this attention, They said that was
one of the things that they take into consideration. However, Robes,
of course, the first question he was asked first or second.
It might have been. The first had to do with Trump.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
We say might have been because we were watching coverage
and they dumped out of it right when the questions
started to be asked for, like, wait, they're obviously going
to be asking about President Trump first and foremost, which
is what happened, And so when they were asked, this
was the response. In the long history of the Nobel
Peace Prize, I think this committee have seen any and
every type of campaign and media attention. We received thousands
(02:42):
and thousands of letters every year from people wanting to
say what for them leads to peace. The Committee sits
in a room filled with the portraits of all laureates,
and that room is filled with both courage and integrity.
We base only our decision on the work and will
of Alfred Nobel.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, the guy from the Nobel Committee never mentioned Trump's
name at any point during the press conference. I believe
that was the only question he got specifically about it.
I was asking you right before we were starting. I said,
I see a headline that says the White House has reacted.
I was a little surprised, and I was curious what
the reaction was. But yes, the White House has reacted
(03:19):
to the President not getting the Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
That's right. The White House spokesperson posted this on tex
Stephen Chung. He said President Trump will continue making peace deals,
ending wars and saving lives. He has the heart of
a humanitarian and there will never be anyone like him
who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will.
The Nobel Committee proved they placed politics over peace.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
They had me up until the last line. What does
that mean that it really does say you didn't pick
our guy, therefore your being political. I don't think anyone's
arguing about this woman's credentials in terms of what she's
been fighting for in Venezuela.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, she, as you said, put her life on the
line and continues to do so. And even when she
realized she couldn't be on the ballot to try and
overtake the situation there in Venezuela, she threw all of
her support behind a candidate who was so she was
selfless even in her determination and continues to be to
try and bring peace to Venezuela and have fair and
(04:20):
transparent elections, which the world agrees did not happen in Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Okay, so of course we've heard the President say he's
ended eight now conflicts is how he often puts it.
He's ended eight wars and the one he's working on
still as to do with Russian and Ukraine. But a
lot of folks saying, well, all this work, he's done well.
The nominations for this year's Nobel Peace Prize were due
at the end of January. He had been in office
(04:45):
but three weeks at that point. Maybe if somebody submitted
his name by then, I don't know. We don't know,
because the committee gets hundreds of nominations, they actually don't
make it public. They don't make it public. However, when
did who went to the White House and pulled out
the nomination. I didn't think it was that early in
the year, but I think it might have been met
(05:06):
in Yahoo who pulled it out as kind of a
scene and here's your Nobel letter for your nomination. But
they just everybody assumed he's I guess an exception should
be made or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Well, and truly, this peace deal in the Middle East
still has to actually come to full fruition. It looks
like we're headed that way. Celebrations are underway, but we
know it's tenuous and we have to wait and see.
So look, if they think he's a contender, there's always
next year. So we will keep our eyes on twenty
twenty six. Next up on the Run, the Israeli government
(05:40):
has accepted. Yes, as we talk about that seas fire,
they have accepted the plan. Israeli troops have started to
withdraw from Gaza, and all hostages are expected to be
released in a matter of days. The ceasefire plan seems
to be moving forward, and hope is holding that the
end of this two year war is finally here.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yeah, hope is a whole aren't we used to having
hope and then it all gets dashed in a matter
of days. This has been several days now we're going
the right direction. The acceptance of the deal triggers the ceasefire,
though there were reports of some late hour Israeli airstrikes overnight.
Right now, forty eight hostages remain, twenty are believed to
be alive.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
So we will keep our eye on that developing situation.
But in the meantime, all eyes continue to be on Washington,
where it's a ghost town. Next up on the Run,
it's day ten of the government shutdown. No relief in sight,
as in, literally everybody left Washington and went home. The
Senate won't be back until three pm on Tuesday, after
(06:40):
remaining deadlight over dueling bills for the seventh time on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Who gets to do that? I'm just head home. You
didn't finish your assignment too much, and I'm gonna go home.
They've I guaranteed a certain number of days of this
shutdown will continue. We got three Democrats who crossed the
aisle to try and push the House passed bill through
the That's exactly the same number since the shutdown began
last week. While that went great, maybe next time on Tuesday. No,
(07:08):
not one lawmaker has changed a vote in all the
howeany has it been six or seven?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Seven?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Seven? Not a single vote has changed also unchanged. Both
sides have been very active with the media, you know,
blaming each other.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That's the way they've spent most of their time in
front of the cameras pointing the finger at the other side.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
We lod I actually want to watch the Sunday morning
show This is sport now because they have the talking
points and they sit in they say the exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Speaking of sport, how about this? The Trump administration has
ratcheted up the pressure on Democrats starting yesterday. On Thursday,
they began airing a video at this is amazing at
airports across the country, which, as we've been reporting, have
experienced significant delays in ground stops because of the air
traft for controller situation, they have considered essential employees, but
(07:55):
a number of them have been calling out sick, which
has brought the airport to a grinding halt. So in
this video, while people are waiting and they're angry and
they're annoyed that their flight isn't taking off, you can
watch a video from Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nome who
tells weary travelers Democrats in Congress refuse to fund the
(08:15):
federal government and because of this, many of our operations
are impacted and most of our TSA employees are working
without pay. How's that to bring the message home?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
It might be illegal? Are you allowed to do that?
I mean she's working.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
For I guess you could get in line to sue
the Trump administration.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Oh my goodness, no, no, no, no, no, that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
My jaw dropped when I read that this morning.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
You might as well campaign at TSA line, just hand
out pamphlets. Democrats did this your weight brought to you
by the Democrats.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Right, And to the TSA employees who are working without payoff,
you can blame your Democratic Wow, yes, lawmaker, whoever that is.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
We'll continue on the run there now, first it was coming.
Now it's Latitia James, who Adam shift better watch out
because the Justice Department seems to be going down Trump's
publicly stated list of people he wants indicted. And yes,
New York Attorney General Letitia James was indicted yesterday by
a federal grandeur.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
James is the one, in case you don't remember, who
successfully went after Trump in court, winning a huge judgment
against him for fraud. That judgment was later thrown out.
What she's accused of in the indictment, mortgage related improprieties
sounds familiar. It seems to be working for them, at
least they tried that with Lisa Cook so far unsuccessfully though.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, I mean, black women just cannot fill out a mortgage, apparently,
according to Trump.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Oh my god. James has denied the allegations against her
and called the charges baseless.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Continue on the run now, hope the President is okay healthwise.
Now he's heading to Walter Reed Medical Center today. The
White House initially described this as his yearly checkup, but
his lab yearly check up was six months ago. So
these are what now we're calling these semi annuals.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
That's what Trump ended up having to clarify it and
calling it a semi annual exam. But that is very rare.
That's not protocol for a president. It's once a year,
So this is not This is very unusual. So Trump
told this to reporters. I think I'm in great shape,
but I'll let you know. When I'm around I like
to check always be early. It's a lesson for a
lot of people. Nothing wrong with that. Wait, wait, but
(10:27):
he's just saying when he's around the area, he likes
to check in to a Walter Read.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
That's what he said. But is he there for an
event or something? He's there for something else?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Well, it's you know, not so far from the White House.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
No, he has to be there, that's what he Surely
that's what he wants.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
No, So yes, this unusual second checkup has some eyebrows raised,
considering the White House announcement over the summer that Trump
had been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency. Photos showing swelling
in the President's legs did cast speculation about his health,
but according to medical experts, look, he's seventy eight years old.
This is not uncommon in older adults, and it certainly
(11:06):
as manageable as well, they say. The White House, by
the way, gave no further details on today's checkup beyond
the announcement of the checkup, which again they initially called
an annual checkup.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Okay, but hey, if you're in the neighborhood, Hey, I'm here,
might as well take a look under the hood.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Little extra blood work never hurt anybody, all right. Next
up on the run. They just got to Chicago and already,
and I must say, as predicted, the National Guard might
need to pack up and head out. A federal judge
has blocked the Trump administration from using Guard troops on
the streets of Chicago, where they had just arrived a
day or so before.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yeah, State of Illinois and the City of Chicago sue
to stop the deployment, and yesterday a judge sided with
them that there is no organized rebellion or unrest that
would justify the president's sending in the National Guard. But
the judge went as far as saying this about the
deployment of National Guard. She said it could lead to
civil unrest and that having them there quote adds fuel
(12:01):
to the fire that the Trump administration has started. The
administration says it will appeal this decision.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Woof Next up on the run. Another political ideological battle
is shaping up in Texas, and this one is about crosswalks,
in particular those really cute, colorful ones we have them
here in New York City. Governor Greg Abbott has ordered
that all rainbow crosswalks be removed within thirty days.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Of course, you can find rainbow crosswalks and cities across
the country which are simple public pride displays. Well, the
governor they're in Texas now says they are a misuse
robes of taxpayer money. And a statement said this, Texans
expect their taxpayer dollars to be used wisely, not advanced
political agendas on Texas roadways. Today, I directed the Texas
(12:49):
Department of Transportation to ensure Texas counties and cities remove
any and all political ideologies from our streets. And here's
the part that some people paid attention to. This is
a safety shoe ropes to keep Texans moving safely and
free from distraction, we must maintain a safe and consistent
transportation network across Texas. Got that?
Speaker 1 (13:10):
No, how about all the distracting billboards that line highways everywhere?
Give me a break. And by the way, speaking of
taxpayer dollars, can anyone just put out the fact that
having to remove it and then reapply it is a
further waste of taxpayer dollars if he's going down that road.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
See here's going to be The next issue is that
some of these are privately funded. So is it the
money or is the ideology?
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And I think we both know the answer.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
He's covering himself on both fronts. Well, stay with us here, folks.
On this Friday morning run. When we come back, there
is a grocery store actually robes it might be my favorite.
It is now telling folks go ahead bring your guns.
Also coming up, the controversy that is ensuing over at
(13:55):
CBS Studios. Also, finally, Kendrick and Drake put the be
to rest, and it took a federal judge to do it.
And we have a second halftime show in the works,
no idea, who's going to play it, and we have
lost maybe one of the most beloved stories in recent
March madness history.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Welcome back to your Friday morning run, and next up,
we're heading to Florida, where you can now openly carry
a firearm while shopping for groceries at the state's largest
supermarket chain, Publics. The company made the announcement following a
state appeals court ruling that Florida's ban on people openly
carrying firearms was unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Ban has been in place since nineteen eighty seven. Publics
released a statement Thursday saying Publics follows all federal, state,
and local laws treating customers with dignity and respect as
a founding belief at Publics, in any instance where a
customer creates a threatening, a or dangerous shopping experience, whether
they are openly carrying a firearm or not, we will
(15:06):
engage local law enforcement to protect our customers and associates.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Sounds like Public's has been a dangerous place to shop.
With that statement, I was kind of like I was
surprised by it.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Do you know this was my Atlanta grocery store.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I love Public Love Public same when I lived in
the South. That's all I went to.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I never had any issues there.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
I wasn't really concerned about my safety, but maybe now
I would be all right. Next up on the Run
a growing controversy over CBS studios. This story is a doozy,
so just get prepared. First. We got word Thursday that
CBS fired Mattlocke actor David del Rio and escorted him
off the set last week on the very day a
fellow actor alleged he sexually assaulted her near his trailer. Normally,
(15:50):
news outlets do not report the name of an alleged
sexual assault victim, but actor Leah Lewis went on social
media and named herself.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah, posted a photo of her and her mom on
Instagram and writing mom is here. We're moving forward in
love and strength. I am in good hands. Thank you
to everybody for any kind of support and care. Truly,
we're moving forward in strength. Keyword strength. Let that be
the takeaway. Whilthough Rio has not said anything publicly, his wife,
(16:18):
also an actress and chef, Catherine del Rio, who she
had something to say.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
She did so on her Instagram story and again, this
is the wife of the actor accused of sexual assault.
She briefly posted a zoomed in photo of Lewis's face
from her post with her mom and wrote, this is
the most disturbing human being I have ever met. She
deleted it a short while later, but then put up
another post with her own picture of her with her
(16:46):
own mom, mocking Lewis's post. That's the alleged sexual assault victim.
It read this mom is here. We're moving forward in
love and strength after what Leah did to our family.
Thank you for all the love and support.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
She the wife of the guy accused of sexual assault,
is mocking the alleged sexual assault victim.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Correct publicly correct?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
All right? I was making sure I was following. Matt
Locke continued filming after del Riel was fired, wrapping up
the first half of the season season two, and will
now go on hiatus through Thanksgiving. The creative team will
have to get creative. That's what they're paid to do, right,
writing off dale Riel's character in some way given the
sudden firing. Season two Matt Locke premieres this Sunday, October twelfth,
(17:34):
so he'll be gone at premiers. So it's just getting
started season two many episodes. Is that that he's going
to have to be in them.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
He is going to be in all of them. Oh yeah,
he is going to be in the first half of
the series, and then he is going to disappear because
he's been fired. But it's been interesting that CBS said
that they investigated the claims, but the same day she
made the claims is the same day he was escorted
off the set and fired. So it's unclear what evidence
they have or what they're saying their investigation showed. But
(18:05):
it was a quick decision. Yeah, more to come on
that for sure. Next up on the run though, well,
we had a lot coming here. And is it over?
The Drake Kendrick Lamar rap beef is done and it
was a judge who ended it. A federal judge. Throughout
Drake's defamation suit against Universal Music Group, which by the way,
is his own record label as well.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
The two guys happened to be represented by the saying
same label. Now he accused the label of defamation for
its role in promoting Kendrick Lamar's mega hit not Like Us.
The judge called the song a thought this was interesting rogues,
a non actionable opinion that Kendrick Lamar was giving and
it's not considered defamatory. The judge said this statements of
(18:48):
fact may assume the character of statements of opinion when
made in public debate. He did labor dispute or other
circumstances in which an audience may enternticipate the use of epithets,
fiery rhetoric, or hyperbole.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
In other words, it's a rat battle, bro or.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Is it politics? If you apply that to what our
politicians say to each other and how we end up
getting misled or maybe some say flat out lied to,
it's almost like, yeah, I made it, but you shouldn't
have assumed it was fact. Wow, when this judge made
so many things clear to me.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, so she said everything being said in a rat
battle is not supposed to be taken as fact. The
judge even called not like us a metaphorial killing blow.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
What I thought it was? That was pretty good?
Speaker 1 (19:42):
You liked it?
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Continuing Now, Bad Bunny has halftime competition robes turning point USA. Yes,
the organization started by Charlie Kirk, announced yesterday that it
was going to be putting on its own Super Bowl
halftime show.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
They call it the All American Halftime Show. They haven't
announced the list of performers yet. But might I suggest
or just wonder aloud if Lee Greenwood was going to
be a part of it all?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
He has to yes, you know he is maybe even headlining,
just to.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Just to guess. We'll just we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I Hey, we're doing this. It's another thing to split
the country. Don't we all come together in the super Bowl.
That's a fun time.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
We can all Look if that's the way they're going
to deal with something they're upset about, they want to
counter program. Okay, I mean, okay, that's at least it's
peaceful and at least it gives people a choice.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
The one thing we come together on we're splitting on.
Everybody agrees on the super Bowl. Don't what else do
Americans just like, oh yeah, we're all in for.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
The Olympics, maybe like Team USA. That's about the only
other thing I can think of.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Oh, I go all right, continuing on the run here
now the beloved oh Loyola team captain. She stole our
chaplain chaplain?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Wait, you said captain.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
I'm totally in a basketball march. Madness is letting you
know you know what she was team captain. I guess
I said it right the first time. Okay, how Yes,
she's the team chaplain. She's a team mascot and this morning, yes,
the team captain. She stole our hearts of course during
twenty eighteen's March Madness. She has now passed away at
(21:15):
the age of one hundred and six. Sister Jean, of course,
you know who we're talking about. One hundred and six
is impressive.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
What waitsu he even more about when she retired, the
enthusiastic nun always dressed in Loyola's burgundy and gold, became
a national celebrity given Loyola Cinderella's story that year making
it to the Final four for the first time in
fifty years, and her full name, because we just affectionately
call her Sister Jean, is Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Yeah. Loyola confirmed her death yesterday, saying this is a
tremendous loss of someone who touched the lives of so
many people. We appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers during this
difficult time. Just after Sister Jean's one hundred and sixth birthday,
which was this summer, the university announced that she was retiring. Yes,
she was.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Working still I was reading the letter she sent to
the students and faculty, like expressing her sadness, like she
finally had to retire at one hundred and six. She
was born in San Francisco. I just I love hearing this.
August twenty first, nineteen nineteen. Isn't that amazing? She was
a basketball player in her younger days before eventually becoming
(22:21):
a nun. Then she became a grade school teacher, where
she started girls' sports programs at the school. I love that,
before becoming an academic advisor for the Loyola men's basketball
team and then yes, later the team chaplain. She released
a memoir back in twenty twenty three, just two years ago,
entitled wake Up with Purpose What I've learned in my
(22:42):
first one hundred years.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
That makes me think how many people are qualified to
even name a book that because most people, how many
authors have put something out over who were one hundred
when they released it?
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Not many?
Speaker 2 (22:55):
So cool? This woman was such an impact and it's
hard to. Yes, it's sad, it's hard to she brought
so much joy and lived a beautiful life and the
impact she had. Yes, it's sad. You lose some moment.
Man I got nothing but smiles when you say, Sister Gene,
it's so true.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So yes, well we'll end this podcast this episode with
a quote that made me laugh. Yes from Sister Gene.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
All right, Well, next up on the run here, let's
go with Lebron James, a member of the Los Angeles Lakers,
is being sued by a Loss Angelus Lakers fan who
accuses King James of fraud and deception. The fan apparently
is pissed because he fell for Lebron's recent promotional stunt
in which he teased a second decision.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
This actually doesn't seem like a frivolous lawsuit to me. Oh,
many folks speculated that Lebron was going to retire, and
I think he wanted them to speculate that. Let's just
be honest. So they ran out and they bought tickets
to the final Laker home games, thinking they were securing
a place to see the Great Lebron's fine NBA game. However,
(24:02):
the second decision turned out to be an ad for Hennessy.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, so the fans says he was duped into spending
money on tickets and is now trying to take Lebron
to court. Now you might be waiting. Is he suing
him for some emotional distress? Is he's suing him for
millions of dollars maybe even one hundred though Nope, he
just wants his eight hundred and fifty five dollars and
sixty six cents back that he spent on the tickets.
(24:26):
That's not on it.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
That's why I don't think it's a frivolous lawsuit. I
think he actually has a point.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
All right.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
I'm curious. I didn't know what you were gonna say
about it.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Come on, it's on you, did you really?
Speaker 1 (24:37):
I think I get that there is such a thing
as personal responsibility boom, but there was deception involved.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
I mean people I can sue right now who fooled
me into something?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, like buying a lottery ticket, all right, because you
thought you were gonna win. All right, let's get on
with the quote of the day. The times are changing,
the weather's getting colder. We've all been and maybe complaining
about it because we love summer so much. But Sister Jean,
this sounds like something one of my parents would say.
I just love it. Get outside every day, no matter
(25:12):
the weather, The cold is good for you. Just bundle
up and you'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Yeah. Love your sister, Jean. I love that tough love
and support that one.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
It's so funny, like, oh, I love it. We start
to complain, Oh, it's so cold outside. You know what,
Get outside every day, no matter the weather. The cold
is good for you. Get your blood flowing. That's what
my dad would say, get your blood flowing. Just bundle
up and you'll be fine. I love that, sister, Jean.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
I love the idea of Yes, she's one hundred percent right.
There are plenty of times you and I sitting here
in a funk in the morning, I say, hey, let's
take a walk.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Thanks, get outside, get.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
By the water and get some inspiration. So love your sister, Jean.
I know there's a huge loss for Loyola, and it's
a huge loss, and I don't know what. They're probably
gonna do something special, hopefully for her. During March Madness
this year, she just right that you could probably name
I don't know how many athletes who made an impact
on March Madness, but you can name her, right. I
(26:09):
can name all. I'm a sports guy, but you can
name her. She stands out with grand Hill to me
and Scottie Thurman to me and right.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
It's that childlike enthusiasm she had for something she loved
and something she was passionate about a game that she
played and that she I mean, I love. There's so
many pictures. She was so little at the end. When
you get older, you get shorter and the like looming
tall basketball players and she's around in a huddle with them.
She comes up to their like their wastes, and it's
such a cute picture. She's so excited, she's so into it.
(26:39):
Anyone who is that kind of passion for life? More
of that place.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Those the most fun, Probably that image of how excited
the players were to be with her. It was an
obligation of photo. They just ran to her. They love
this woman. So again, thank you, Sister Jean for what
you gave us, and folks, we appreciate you as always
running with us.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Now I'm pet and I'm Amy Robot will run with
you really soon
