Speaker 1 (00:01):
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Good morning everyone, Thanks for joining us for today's Morning Run.
It's Wednesday, October twenty second. I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Holmes. We've got a lot to get to on the
run this morning, but really it's kind of the story
of the morning, the story of the day. Yesterday, this
really had everybody scratching their heads. President Trump, according to
New York Times, wants the Department of Justice to pay
him two hundred and thirty million dollars and he gets
to decide if he gets it or not. Is can
that be right?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
That can't be right.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
It can't be right. Okay, but it's happening, folks. And
the President yes, says the Department of Justice should pay
him a big sum and he gets to decide whether
or not he gets the money. We will get into
this story that had all of DC buzz in yesterday. Also,
we know about that big love robbery. They're still looking
for those jewels. But would you believe roth they said
(00:54):
security worked exactly how it was opposed to how French
of them? Is that for our French thing? But yes,
that is the update. No jewels, no thieves, but they
are almost emphatically defending that the security worked the way
it was supposed to.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Never admit defeat TJ.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
We'll explain that. Also, dear Diddy, don't put your faith
in Trump. That's the message for Diddy this morning. We'll
explain where his pardon situation is. Also, this is kind
of a messy situation, no doubt, an ugly one in Chinatown,
not far from where we sit right here in Lower Manhattan,
Chinatown at Street vendors and ice agents clashing. Will explain
that Robes A folks were Hooton and Holland at the time.
(01:35):
Don't pardon these January sixth rioters. They said they're going
to cause problems down the road. And here we are
as we speak Robes, there is one sitting in jail
for I guess you could argue for something more egregious
even than what we saw him do in January sixth.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I was gonna say, a problem down the road is
an understatement for what this person is accused of doing.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
We will get into that. Also, the big Trump putin
Summit Part two not happening, at least not any time soon. Also,
when's the last time we said this word in terms
of the gods of peace, steel optimism. Really, yes, there
is someone throwing that word around today. Also, Congress, like
you say, hey, we're not gonna be quitters here, We're
(02:18):
going for the record. Congress seems to be going for
the record for the government shutdown. Quitting. Well, if you
gotta go go big, not even on the job. I said,
go big or go home. They are home. A lot
of them gone home. Are they're staying home right now?
You know what, let's start there in the nation's capital
and robes. We talked about this and you said I
(02:40):
was using the word if and when, and I was
talking about if we get to this day, we would
have a new all on our own number two longest
government shut down. And I guess our predictions were correct.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
It has become a when.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
So yes, it is officially the second longest government shut
down in US history, and lawmakers appear to want to
keep on going for the record, because on day twenty
two now of this shutdown, we seem to be exactly
where we were on day one of the shutdown, both
sides refusing to budge or even meet.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
They're not even talking at this point about resolving this.
So of course, you remember by now, Democrats want healthcare
guarantees first before they'll negotiate a long term funding plan.
Republicans want to reopen the government first, and then they
want to negotiate a longer term deal. Nobody's budging so far. Meanwhile,
a twelfth vote is expected today in the Senate on
(03:35):
the same Republican spending measure that has failed eleven times before.
But as the saying goes twelfth times, the charm.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
That's hilarious and the very sad and real consequence of
this shutdown appears to be upon us now. Benefits to
some of our most vulnerable Americans are about to literally
run out.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
States are warning funding.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
For programs like SNAP and w dry and they're going
to actually have to stop paying benefits.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Yeah, Snap, commonly refers to as food stamps, helps forty
two million low income Americans purchase food. Then the WICK
Program Women Infinite Children that serves seven million mothers in
the country and the program depend on federal funding but
are administered by states. And now Texas, New Jersey, Maryland,
New York, Pennsylvania, Minnesota just a few of the states
that have issued warnings that money either has or will
(04:26):
run out in the near future if the shutdown continues.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Pennsylvania says they have already stopped paying some benefits to
folks in Texas say it is going to run out
of funding.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Specifically, they give the.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Date in five days, October twenty seventh. Well, someone else
who thinks they should be paid. President Trump says the
federal government actually owes him big time, and he's going
to be the one to decide apparently if he gets paid.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Yeah, this was an actual what the hell story out
of the New York Times yesterday and rose. When I
first saw it, I said, Nah, surely it's not the case.
But we heard from the p himself. Now. The Times
reported that Trump is demanding, in their words, demanding two
hundred and thirty million dollars from the Justice Department. Why
could they owe him, Well, he says, the government owes
(05:13):
him personally this money for putting him through those investigations
and for prosecuting him.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
And you don't have to take the New York Times
word for it.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Stj just said the President was asked about it specifically
with the doga in the Oval office yesterday about a
settlement with them, and said this, you know, the decision
would have to go across my desk, And it's awfully
strange to make a decision where I'm paying myself. In
other words, did you ever have one of those cases
where you have to decide how much you're paying yourself
(05:42):
in damages?
Speaker 3 (05:43):
What a weird rhetorical question. Sorry I inserted that.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
But I was damaged very greatly, and any money that
I would get I would give to charity. Perhaps the
charity could be the federal government or the folks who
they aren't paying right now?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Why not? Just isn't that a better deal is to
just not take the money from the governments that's struggling career.
I don't know if this is this for real, and
I can't imagine him being the one. Look, the people
who have to make the decision about whether or not
the DOJ would settle with somebody would be all the
people that he put in the DOJ Act. Some of
(06:17):
them were his personal lawyers. I don't know how this
could possibly work. I thought he was going to shoot
it down. He came out and say, yeah, they owe
me money. So the president himself said this, wait to
see how this works out. Continuing on the run with
more Trump news. This one had to do with Trump
Putin too. It's apparently not happening, not anytime soon or
maybe ever. This is not a good sign for the Ukraine,
(06:38):
Russia or the President announced last week then he and
Russian President Putin would be meeting in Budapest for a
second summit on ending that war in Ukraine. He said
that meeting would happen in the next few weeks, but
now the White House says there are no plans for
a meeting in the immediate future.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with his Russian counterpart
on Monday, and the administration says a further face to
face meeting was not necessary. Gotta love what Russia had
to say about it. This is this is so Russian
of them. When a Putin spokesperson was asked about this meeting,
this is what was said.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
You can't postpone what was not scheduled.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I'm usually not a fan of flipping comments from governments
and government officials, but every once in a while I'm
okay with that.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Especially when it just like you lean into what you're
known for.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
But they make a good point. Yeah, we didn't have
anything on the books, so no we didn't postpone a meeting.
Continuing on the run here on this Wednesday morning now,
and a January sixth rioter who was pardoned by President
Trump is back in jail this morning for threatening to
kill Democratic House Minority leader Hakim Jeffries. Thirty four year
(07:45):
old Chris Moinan is charged with making terroristic threats after
police say he sent a series of threatening text messages.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Here are a.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Few of them. These are his words, these are his texts.
Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC.
Cannot allow this terrorist to live.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
That's scary to know schedules and like he was planning
to be where Hucking Jeffreys was.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
That's yeah, and it gets even more chilling. Right, even
if I am hated, he must be eliminated. I will
kill him for the future. Then, moynihan is one of
the rioters who made it to the Senate floor on
January sixth, just so you know. So he was intentional
and actually successful, and there's actually video of him going
through paperwork.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
It's unmistakable this is on the Senate floor.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
He was sentenced to two years in prison, but he
was among the fifteen hundred writers who were then pardoned
by Trump again back in jail thankfully after those messages.
I guess I'm shocked that people think they can send
these messages and why people actually, I mean thankfully announce
what they're about to do before they do it. It's the
only way we've actually been able to catch a few
recent would be shooters or would be murderers.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
What haven't we put haven't we entered an era now
of political assassinations to where it's almost seeing someone like
this thinks an option, they think it's heroic. Now, yeah,
I'm going to be hated, but I have to do
this for the future. That's scary, and this is an
era we appear to be in right now. We'll here
on this Wednesday morning, we'll continue to run, going to
head to the Middle East now where the bodies of
two more hostages were returned on Tuesday. Hamas has now
(09:15):
returned fifteen of the twenty eight deceased hostages, so now
thirteen still remain missing.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Under decease far agreement, Hamas was supposed to return all
the hostages, both living and deceased, within the first seventy
two hours, but Hamas has said that this is a quote.
Significant efforts and special equipment will be needed to recover
the remaining bodies, and Israeli intelligence has conceded that Hamas
just may not be able to find and return all
(09:42):
of the remains at this point.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
No Vice President Vance touchdown in Israel yesterday and put
a timeline. He didn't want to put a timeline on
returning the remains or for when Hamas would have to disarm.
The Vice President says that some of the deceased hostages
were buried under thousands of pounds of rubble. Some of
the hostages nobody even knows where they are. These are
his words. He said, that doesn't mean we shouldn't work
(10:06):
to get them. He added that this wouldn't happen overnight.
And he was the one, look, Marco Rubio, no, no,
Rubio's not there, Kushner's there, and Steve Whitcoff's there. Correct,
These are the big dogs trying to push this across
the finish line. And JD. Vance was the one who
used the word optimism. There's a reason for optimism in
this piece. Plan r.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah. He didn't like the headlines acting as if it
were a fragile ceasefire he said, there is no fragility,
so hopefully his words are true. All right, Next up
on the run, we're going to head to the streets
of Manhattan, very close to where we are sitting recording
this right now. Those streets typically lined with street vendors,
especially along Canal Street in New York's Chinatown neighborhood. Well,
(10:46):
yesterday they quickly emptied after federal agents We're talking ICE,
the FBI, and the ATF in military style trucks rated
Canal Street, cracking down on the sale of counterfeit goods.
You know, if you've been to Canal Street, you know
everywhere you look there are vendors sending knockoff verses, selling
those knockoff verses and leather goods.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I can't imagine we've seen the video of it, but
this scene. I mean, you walked through that neighborhood, you
can't walk two feet without touching a vendor. They're just
lying everywhere. And we've been in places here in Battery
Park in particular, where their vendors set up they kind
of give a signal to each other cops coming. We've
seen these folks pack up, scramble, run, hide behind trees, even.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
It's quite the sight. We saw it happen.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
We actually didn't know what we were watching, and then
we saw police coming, but those were New York City police.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Very different.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yes, this Ice and Feds. They began this operation and
crowds of people began shouting at the agents and it
all escalated from there. It's unclear how many street vendors
were actually detained, but at least one protester was arrested
for reportedly assaulting a federal officer. Homeland Security released a
statement saying during this law enforcement operation, rioters who were
(11:56):
shouting obscenities became violent an obstructed law enforcement duties, including
blocking vehicles and assaulting law enforcement.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
New York City leaders strongly condemned the federal agent's actions.
The city comptroller said there is no excuse for sending
military styled vehicles and a national law enforcement response for
street vendors. Mayor Eric Adams's office put out this statement
on social media. We never cooperate with federal law enforcement
on civil deportation matters in accordance with local laws and
(12:25):
have no involvement in this matter. Mayor Adams has been
clear that undocumented New Yorkers trying to pursue the American
dream should not be the target of law enforcement and
resources should instead be focused on violent criminals what in
US And that's exactly, but we have seen New York
City police go after them.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
So it's interesting. Absolutely watched it. We witnessed it happening.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
But they would argue, it's not an Immigration and Trust Act.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
They're just saying you don't have a permit, you.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Don't have the permit for it. All right, continuing on
the run here now. The man arrested moments before police
believe he was about to shoot up the Atlanta airport
is now facing federal charges. We told you about this yesterday.
Forty nine year old Michael Cagel was taken into custody
at Hartsville Jackson International Airport Monday after his family alerted
police that he was on social media saying he had
(13:13):
a gun and was on the way to the airport.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
According to the incident report, Cagel said to someone via FaceTime,
I'm at the airport and I'm gonna go rat a
tat tat woof. Cagel is charged with attempted violence at
an international airport, making threats to injure and felony possession
of a firearm.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And let this be a detail here that everybody listens
to and could prevent mass shootings. Now, the person he
was on the phone with the suspect, got so disturbed,
didn't hesitate, drove, didn't call police, drove to the police
station and reported it. The family gave photos of the suspect,
(13:52):
gave pictures of his car. And that's why Robes now
this local police station immediately gets a hold of Atlanta PD.
In the pictures. They get to the airport, Look for
this guy, Look for this truck. Find him ar fifteen
in the truck.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Who knows, I have chills. He was walking out of
the airport to go get his gun.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
That's what police believe. Ah, and you will look if
you've been in that airport where he was in that
terminal you stopped there, you have a full view of
hundreds white people, kids, people in line, nowhere to run. Essentially.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh, it's a big, huge open space that is so
chilling and so frightening. Thank goodness for his family.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Is this not after every mass shooting there's a report, Well,
we saw signs but didn't say anything. Wow, I've noticed
this but didn't think it was.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
A social media post said this.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Oh, we see it all and this worked. At least
everything worked, So hats off to them down their family
and police. Yes.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Next up on the run, a new measles outbreak has
sickened more than one hundred people along the border of
Utah and Arizona. It is now the second largest cluster
of cases this year in the US and has mostly
affected unvaccinated people. The outbreak began in Colorado City, Arizona,
and Hilldale, Utah. Those are adjoining cities that are home
to the FLDS, the polygamous offshoot of the Warmon Church.
(15:10):
Now they are oftentimes cut off from the rest of
the world, so to speak, but health officials say the
virus has spread beyond that community, that isolated community and
is now impacting other areas where vaccination rates have dropped
significantly since the pandemic. Right now, the US is dealing
with two other measle outbreaks in South Carolina and Minnesota.
And by the way, this is the worst year in
(15:31):
documented measles cases in more than three decades.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
And we are not alone.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Yes, not just US, folks, our neighbors to the north end,
South Nea, Mexico and parts of Canada dealing with outbreaks.
Canada has so many this year it's expected to lose
its elimination status later this month, and the US is
at risk as well. Now this is a designation elimination status.
We don't hear it all the time, but into designation
given to countries that do not have continuous spread of
(15:57):
measles for more than a year. So it's back. A
former CDC director told The New York Times he's concerned
our whole continent may lose elimination status. They started with
a cluster in Texas that was going to coming up.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
It's scary, but they say with the unvaccination rates during
the pandemic, especially now we're seeing the ressaults of that.
So we had elimination status in two thousand, Canada got
it in nineteen ninety eight, Mexico got it in ninety six,
so this is undoing.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Thirty years. In some cases of elimination status, I.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Didn't realize you're right here in the A lot of
stuff you included. A lot of people have stuff go
by the wayside yep, during the pandemic, didn't take care.
I don't ever take care of my health. So I
didn't really miss anything, but I see, I know a
lot of other people miss some appointments. All right, well,
stay with us, folks here on this Wednesday morning run
when we come back. Well, we thought Trump might pardon Diddy,
(16:52):
Well he might still or he might not. As a
confusing story about out there, about what the president actually
wants to do, we'll explain. Also miracle on thirty fourth Street. Yeah,
the baby's fine, but now police have put out images
of the person they're looking for who possibly abandoned a
baby at Penn Station. Also that Louver heist. I know
(17:14):
what you're thinking, security was messed up. Nope, security worked
exactly how was supposed to when thieves stole one hundred
million dollars worth of stuff. And did you know we
got two moons? Now, all right, folks, let's continue on
this Wednesday morning run with President Trump. Is he considering
(17:37):
pardoning Sean Ditty Combs. Well, yesterday the White House tried
to torpedo a report from TMZ that claims Trump is
considering commuting Diddy's sentence as soon as this week.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
The White House saying, quote, there is zero truth to
the TMZ report, which we would have gladly explained had
they reached out before running their fake news, The president,
not a non missources, is the final decider of pardons
and commutations. TMZ responded by saying they stand by their story.
They say they got their tip from a high ranking
(18:11):
White House official.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
What do you make of this? It didn't seem like
they were flat out denied the White House, right.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
They didn't say that he wasn't going to pardon him.
They just said there isn't truth that he's considering to
do it as soon as this week.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
This week words, man are everything. They couched that he's
considering pardon this kind.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Well, get because I think if they if he wasn't,
they would have flat out said he's not going to
commute his sentence.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Why wouldn't you say it now? Because you haven't decided, right, correct, Damn,
this is on the table. So it's on the table.
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Now you're saying he's got a chance my interpretation.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Oh well, my goodness. Well. Diddy's lawyers confirmed earlier that
they have been pursuing a presidential pardon comes to sentences
earlier this month of fifty months in prison. In August,
Trump was I asked directly about possibly pardoning Combs. What
he said wasn't very encouraging. At the time, he said,
you know, I was very friendly with him. I got
along with him gray and seemed like a nice guy.
I didn't know him well, but when I ran for
office he was very hostile. When you knew someone and
(19:12):
you were fine, and then you run for office and
he made some terrible statements. So I don't know, it's
more difficult, makes it more I'm being honest. It makes
it more difficult to do sounds personal.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I feel like though Diddy was already At several times
we watched him try to butter up the judge.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
I figure if he.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Sends some sort of can't you you can communicate right
with a letter or an email, just buttering yeah, like
it's that would not surprise me at all.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
This is on the table TBD all right.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Next up on the run, the Miracle on thirty four
Street baby is doing okay.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
That's the good news.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
But now police are asking for the public's health help
to find the person who abandoned this newborn baby girl
at New York's Penn Station. The baby was found with
her umbilical cord still attached, wrapped in blankets and left
on a passageway at the train station on Monday.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Police have now released images of a woman they want
to talk to. It shows a woman caring something that
appears to be wrapped in sheets in a blanket like
you would carry a child if you're looking at it.
It's a short video clip, only a few seconds, but
police are hoping someone can identify her. Did you see this.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
She has very identified viable clothing on I noticed like
very loud print, so people might say, oh, I know
who that is based on which what she was wearing
was the most distinguishing thing.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Well, they're going to and again they're looking for this person.
But again, this is a criminal case. This is now
in danger to well to endangering the welfare of a child.
This is not let's reunite everybody in a family, you
get together, No, no, no, this is a crime was
committed and this child was left. Can you this child's
going to be followed for the rest of her life,
little baby that was fine, little miracle on thirty four
on four Street, for the rest of her life. Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Yes, we will keep you updated on that story. But
next up on the run. The louver has reopened in
Paris minus one hundred million in stolen Crown jewels, those
jewels taken in that brazen broad daylight heist on Sunday,
And yes they are still unaccounted for, and the thieves
are still on the loose.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Well we got a number.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Now.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
First they were telling us it was incalculable how much
these jewels were worth. But now they're saying they are
worth an estimated one hundred and two million dollars. Now
you throw into the history of these jewels and they
are absolutely priceless. But the French Culture Minister made sure
to make a point and even emphatically robes that the
security was working as it should have, specifically the cameras
(21:31):
and apparatus is the word they used. It was working
the way it should on the morning of the robbery, saying, quote,
the Louver Museum security apparatus worked. It did not fail.
That is a fact.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
What huh I mean? Okay? So did the alarms go off?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
And if the alarms went off, then the appropriate people
responded with appropriate actions.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
I find it hard to believe to say the security
worked the way it was supposed to and we still
lost one hundred million. So that means the security plan
was flawed.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
And unarmed men were able to steal one hundred million
dollars plus worth of jewelry.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
I can't wait to hear the detail. And again, robes,
you can't sell these so you I mean the way
they are to think these things are can chop down,
possibly to be sold on the black market.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
I mean, yeah, TikTok, right, all right, next up on
the run.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Always of note, when a major streaming service raises its prices,
want to let you know. This time it's HBO Max.
They announced an increase in they're monthly and yearly subscription.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Dollar a month. It's going up for the most basic plan,
so it's going to be ten ninety nine now dollar
fifty for the second tier, and then two dollars more
for the premium plan, so that'll cost you twenty two
ninety nine a month, and the yearly subscriptions will go
up ten dollars, fifteen dollars and twenty dollars. The increases
apply immediately to anybody signing up, but for you current
customers out there, it's not going to go up immediately.
(22:56):
It's not until your next renewal. They'll give you a
heads up and that's when the price is are going
to go on.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I've been getting a lot of those lately from a
lot of streaming services, just a like, hey it's going up,
just buy a dollar or two. But it does start
to add up.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
What was it when Netflix was six ninety nine at
the very beginning, wasn't it without ad What mine is now? Well,
it's twenty two dollars a month for a premium place.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I still haven't consolidated our streaming services, babe.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
It's a problem, all right, app that you just see
what the things you're paying.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Do that that? Oh, I'm going to be appalled at myself.
All right. For the final leg of our run, have
you heard Earth has two moons? Now, I mean not technically.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Technically what we have is a second quasi moon, and
we have two moons.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
We have a quasi moon.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
It's a little space asteroid that will be tagging along
with us until twenty eighty three.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Okay, that's when side to say it will drift away
back into the open space. They know it's going that
direction and not another one.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Right, correct, Yes, that is the concern some people had.
Could it turn against us and come crashing down?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
And they say no, they say no, Okay, Well, the
name of this has a cute orrible name. It's called
twenty twenty five P seven. What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
I guess they found it in twenty twenty five, and
who knows what PN seven means.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Okay? They say this thing is about the size of
a small building. And while NASA Science has just confirmed
the presence of our quasi moon, they believe it's been
here for a while, tracking alongside us for the past
sixty years. We've had two moons my whole life. They're
just telling me. Yep.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
It was a University of Hawaii team that first founded
earlier this year. They noticed a faint speck moving against
the stars, They documented it, and then they realized it, yes,
was following Earth's exact pace around the Sun. A few
weeks later, NASA confirmed that, yes, this is our newest
and temporary traveling partner. It isn't drawn in by Earth's
(24:43):
gravitational pull the way our moon is. It's orbiting the
Sun the way the Earth is, so it's slightly different
than how the Moon operates, and that's why it's just
gonna It's staying with us for a while, but it's
going to go back out. I'm still fascinated that NASA
can tell us exactly when an astra it is going
to leave our orbit in thirty years.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
I don't know, because they didn't know this damn thing
was here for the past sixty.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
But now they can tell us exactly the year it's
going to leave.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
No, they just sound super smart. Okay, like we know
of course. I love now.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
All right, we have our quote of the day for
everyone here on our Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Loved this one.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Three enemies of personal peace regret over yesterday's mistakes, anxiety
over tomorrow's problems, and ingratitude for today's blessings. Those are
the three enemies of personal peace.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
What was the first one? Again?
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Regret over yesterday's mistakes?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Man, start there. Don't even just work on that one
and then work on two and three. Man, you can
just let that go. Stop tripping over things you already survived.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Yes, Then anxiety over tomorrow's problems.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Yeah no, I'm still working on that one.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
And then ingratitude for today's blessings.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Oh, I got a way us to go on that one.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
See, that's something that I think I can switch around
right away. What I've been trying to do is when
I start going over the things I messed up and
am beating myself up over, I immediately.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Say, up, see what you're doing. What can you be
grateful for right now?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
And what can you and I just try to just
But it's all about recognizing that negative thought in the
moment right but we all do it. I'll keep doing it,
you'll keep doing it. But if we can just interrupt it,
that actually creates peace.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
I love. This is all about personal peace.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
You're uh William arthur Ward.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
He is a very wise man.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Had a quote from him last week too, So I'm
gonna keep trying to find more stuff from him, but
I will stop talking and with that, everyone, thanks for
running with us on this Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
I made me robots and I'm TJ. Holmes. We'll talk
to y else.
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Good morning everyone, Thanks for joining us for today's Morning Run.
It's Wednesday, October twenty second. I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Holmes. We've got a lot to get to on the
run this morning, but really it's kind of the story
of the morning, the story of the day. Yesterday, this
really had everybody scratching their heads. President Trump, according to
New York Times, wants the Department of Justice to pay
him two hundred and thirty million dollars and he gets
to decide if he gets it or not. Is can
that be right?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
That can't be right.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
It can't be right. Okay, but it's happening, folks. And
the President yes, says the Department of Justice should pay
him a big sum and he gets to decide whether
or not he gets the money. We will get into
this story that had all of DC buzz in yesterday. Also,
we know about that big love robbery. They're still looking
for those jewels. But would you believe roth they said
(00:54):
security worked exactly how it was opposed to how French
of them? Is that for our French thing? But yes,
that is the update. No jewels, no thieves, but they
are almost emphatically defending that the security worked the way
it was supposed to.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Never admit defeat TJ.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
We'll explain that. Also, dear Diddy, don't put your faith
in Trump. That's the message for Diddy this morning. We'll
explain where his pardon situation is. Also, this is kind
of a messy situation, no doubt, an ugly one in Chinatown,
not far from where we sit right here in Lower Manhattan,
Chinatown at Street vendors and ice agents clashing. Will explain
that Robes A folks were Hooton and Holland at the time.
(01:35):
Don't pardon these January sixth rioters. They said they're going
to cause problems down the road. And here we are
as we speak Robes, there is one sitting in jail
for I guess you could argue for something more egregious
even than what we saw him do in January sixth.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I was gonna say, a problem down the road is
an understatement for what this person is accused of doing.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
We will get into that. Also, the big Trump putin
Summit Part two not happening, at least not any time soon. Also,
when's the last time we said this word in terms
of the gods of peace, steel optimism. Really, yes, there
is someone throwing that word around today. Also, Congress, like
you say, hey, we're not gonna be quitters here, We're
(02:18):
going for the record. Congress seems to be going for
the record for the government shutdown. Quitting. Well, if you
gotta go go big, not even on the job. I said,
go big or go home. They are home. A lot
of them gone home. Are they're staying home right now?
You know what, let's start there in the nation's capital
and robes. We talked about this and you said I
(02:40):
was using the word if and when, and I was
talking about if we get to this day, we would
have a new all on our own number two longest
government shut down. And I guess our predictions were correct.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
It has become a when.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
So yes, it is officially the second longest government shut
down in US history, and lawmakers appear to want to
keep on going for the record, because on day twenty
two now of this shutdown, we seem to be exactly
where we were on day one of the shutdown, both
sides refusing to budge or even meet.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
They're not even talking at this point about resolving this.
So of course, you remember by now, Democrats want healthcare
guarantees first before they'll negotiate a long term funding plan.
Republicans want to reopen the government first, and then they
want to negotiate a longer term deal. Nobody's budging so far. Meanwhile,
a twelfth vote is expected today in the Senate on
(03:35):
the same Republican spending measure that has failed eleven times before.
But as the saying goes twelfth times, the charm.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
That's hilarious and the very sad and real consequence of
this shutdown appears to be upon us now. Benefits to
some of our most vulnerable Americans are about to literally
run out.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
States are warning funding.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
For programs like SNAP and w dry and they're going
to actually have to stop paying benefits.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Yeah, Snap, commonly refers to as food stamps, helps forty
two million low income Americans purchase food. Then the WICK
Program Women Infinite Children that serves seven million mothers in
the country and the program depend on federal funding but
are administered by states. And now Texas, New Jersey, Maryland,
New York, Pennsylvania, Minnesota just a few of the states
that have issued warnings that money either has or will
(04:26):
run out in the near future if the shutdown continues.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Pennsylvania says they have already stopped paying some benefits to
folks in Texas say it is going to run out
of funding.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Specifically, they give the.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Date in five days, October twenty seventh. Well, someone else
who thinks they should be paid. President Trump says the
federal government actually owes him big time, and he's going
to be the one to decide apparently if he gets paid.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Yeah, this was an actual what the hell story out
of the New York Times yesterday and rose. When I
first saw it, I said, Nah, surely it's not the case.
But we heard from the p himself. Now. The Times
reported that Trump is demanding, in their words, demanding two
hundred and thirty million dollars from the Justice Department. Why
could they owe him, Well, he says, the government owes
(05:13):
him personally this money for putting him through those investigations
and for prosecuting him.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
And you don't have to take the New York Times
word for it.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Stj just said the President was asked about it specifically
with the doga in the Oval office yesterday about a
settlement with them, and said this, you know, the decision
would have to go across my desk, And it's awfully
strange to make a decision where I'm paying myself. In
other words, did you ever have one of those cases
where you have to decide how much you're paying yourself
(05:42):
in damages?
Speaker 3 (05:43):
What a weird rhetorical question. Sorry I inserted that.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
But I was damaged very greatly, and any money that
I would get I would give to charity. Perhaps the
charity could be the federal government or the folks who
they aren't paying right now?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Why not? Just isn't that a better deal is to
just not take the money from the governments that's struggling career.
I don't know if this is this for real, and
I can't imagine him being the one. Look, the people
who have to make the decision about whether or not
the DOJ would settle with somebody would be all the
people that he put in the DOJ Act. Some of
(06:17):
them were his personal lawyers. I don't know how this
could possibly work. I thought he was going to shoot
it down. He came out and say, yeah, they owe
me money. So the president himself said this, wait to
see how this works out. Continuing on the run with
more Trump news. This one had to do with Trump
Putin too. It's apparently not happening, not anytime soon or
maybe ever. This is not a good sign for the Ukraine,
(06:38):
Russia or the President announced last week then he and
Russian President Putin would be meeting in Budapest for a
second summit on ending that war in Ukraine. He said
that meeting would happen in the next few weeks, but
now the White House says there are no plans for
a meeting in the immediate future.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with his Russian counterpart
on Monday, and the administration says a further face to
face meeting was not necessary. Gotta love what Russia had
to say about it. This is this is so Russian
of them. When a Putin spokesperson was asked about this meeting,
this is what was said.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
You can't postpone what was not scheduled.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I'm usually not a fan of flipping comments from governments
and government officials, but every once in a while I'm
okay with that.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Especially when it just like you lean into what you're
known for.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
But they make a good point. Yeah, we didn't have
anything on the books, so no we didn't postpone a meeting.
Continuing on the run here on this Wednesday morning now,
and a January sixth rioter who was pardoned by President
Trump is back in jail this morning for threatening to
kill Democratic House Minority leader Hakim Jeffries. Thirty four year
(07:45):
old Chris Moinan is charged with making terroristic threats after
police say he sent a series of threatening text messages.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Here are a.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Few of them. These are his words, these are his texts.
Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC.
Cannot allow this terrorist to live.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
That's scary to know schedules and like he was planning
to be where Hucking Jeffreys was.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
That's yeah, and it gets even more chilling. Right, even
if I am hated, he must be eliminated. I will
kill him for the future. Then, moynihan is one of
the rioters who made it to the Senate floor on
January sixth, just so you know. So he was intentional
and actually successful, and there's actually video of him going
through paperwork.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
It's unmistakable this is on the Senate floor.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
He was sentenced to two years in prison, but he
was among the fifteen hundred writers who were then pardoned
by Trump again back in jail thankfully after those messages.
I guess I'm shocked that people think they can send
these messages and why people actually, I mean thankfully announce
what they're about to do before they do it. It's the
only way we've actually been able to catch a few
recent would be shooters or would be murderers.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
What haven't we put haven't we entered an era now
of political assassinations to where it's almost seeing someone like
this thinks an option, they think it's heroic. Now, yeah,
I'm going to be hated, but I have to do
this for the future. That's scary, and this is an
era we appear to be in right now. We'll here
on this Wednesday morning, we'll continue to run, going to
head to the Middle East now where the bodies of
two more hostages were returned on Tuesday. Hamas has now
(09:15):
returned fifteen of the twenty eight deceased hostages, so now
thirteen still remain missing.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Under decease far agreement, Hamas was supposed to return all
the hostages, both living and deceased, within the first seventy
two hours, but Hamas has said that this is a quote.
Significant efforts and special equipment will be needed to recover
the remaining bodies, and Israeli intelligence has conceded that Hamas
just may not be able to find and return all
(09:42):
of the remains at this point.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
No Vice President Vance touchdown in Israel yesterday and put
a timeline. He didn't want to put a timeline on
returning the remains or for when Hamas would have to disarm.
The Vice President says that some of the deceased hostages
were buried under thousands of pounds of rubble. Some of
the hostages nobody even knows where they are. These are
his words. He said, that doesn't mean we shouldn't work
(10:06):
to get them. He added that this wouldn't happen overnight.
And he was the one, look, Marco Rubio, no, no,
Rubio's not there, Kushner's there, and Steve Whitcoff's there. Correct,
These are the big dogs trying to push this across
the finish line. And JD. Vance was the one who
used the word optimism. There's a reason for optimism in
this piece. Plan r.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah. He didn't like the headlines acting as if it
were a fragile ceasefire he said, there is no fragility,
so hopefully his words are true. All right, Next up
on the run, we're going to head to the streets
of Manhattan, very close to where we are sitting recording
this right now. Those streets typically lined with street vendors,
especially along Canal Street in New York's Chinatown neighborhood. Well,
(10:46):
yesterday they quickly emptied after federal agents We're talking ICE,
the FBI, and the ATF in military style trucks rated
Canal Street, cracking down on the sale of counterfeit goods.
You know, if you've been to Canal Street, you know
everywhere you look there are vendors sending knockoff verses, selling
those knockoff verses and leather goods.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I can't imagine we've seen the video of it, but
this scene. I mean, you walked through that neighborhood, you
can't walk two feet without touching a vendor. They're just
lying everywhere. And we've been in places here in Battery
Park in particular, where their vendors set up they kind
of give a signal to each other cops coming. We've
seen these folks pack up, scramble, run, hide behind trees, even.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
It's quite the sight. We saw it happen.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
We actually didn't know what we were watching, and then
we saw police coming, but those were New York City police.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Very different.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yes, this Ice and Feds. They began this operation and
crowds of people began shouting at the agents and it
all escalated from there. It's unclear how many street vendors
were actually detained, but at least one protester was arrested
for reportedly assaulting a federal officer. Homeland Security released a
statement saying during this law enforcement operation, rioters who were
(11:56):
shouting obscenities became violent an obstructed law enforcement duties, including
blocking vehicles and assaulting law enforcement.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
New York City leaders strongly condemned the federal agent's actions.
The city comptroller said there is no excuse for sending
military styled vehicles and a national law enforcement response for
street vendors. Mayor Eric Adams's office put out this statement
on social media. We never cooperate with federal law enforcement
on civil deportation matters in accordance with local laws and
(12:25):
have no involvement in this matter. Mayor Adams has been
clear that undocumented New Yorkers trying to pursue the American
dream should not be the target of law enforcement and
resources should instead be focused on violent criminals what in
US And that's exactly, but we have seen New York
City police go after them.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
So it's interesting. Absolutely watched it. We witnessed it happening.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
But they would argue, it's not an Immigration and Trust Act.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
They're just saying you don't have a permit, you.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Don't have the permit for it. All right, continuing on
the run here now. The man arrested moments before police
believe he was about to shoot up the Atlanta airport
is now facing federal charges. We told you about this yesterday.
Forty nine year old Michael Cagel was taken into custody
at Hartsville Jackson International Airport Monday after his family alerted
police that he was on social media saying he had
(13:13):
a gun and was on the way to the airport.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
According to the incident report, Cagel said to someone via FaceTime,
I'm at the airport and I'm gonna go rat a
tat tat woof. Cagel is charged with attempted violence at
an international airport, making threats to injure and felony possession
of a firearm.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And let this be a detail here that everybody listens
to and could prevent mass shootings. Now, the person he
was on the phone with the suspect, got so disturbed,
didn't hesitate, drove, didn't call police, drove to the police
station and reported it. The family gave photos of the suspect,
(13:52):
gave pictures of his car. And that's why Robes now
this local police station immediately gets a hold of Atlanta PD.
In the pictures. They get to the airport, Look for
this guy, Look for this truck. Find him ar fifteen
in the truck.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Who knows, I have chills. He was walking out of
the airport to go get his gun.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
That's what police believe. Ah, and you will look if
you've been in that airport where he was in that
terminal you stopped there, you have a full view of
hundreds white people, kids, people in line, nowhere to run. Essentially.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh, it's a big, huge open space that is so
chilling and so frightening. Thank goodness for his family.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Is this not after every mass shooting there's a report, Well,
we saw signs but didn't say anything. Wow, I've noticed
this but didn't think it was.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
A social media post said this.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Oh, we see it all and this worked. At least
everything worked, So hats off to them down their family
and police. Yes.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Next up on the run, a new measles outbreak has
sickened more than one hundred people along the border of
Utah and Arizona. It is now the second largest cluster
of cases this year in the US and has mostly
affected unvaccinated people. The outbreak began in Colorado City, Arizona,
and Hilldale, Utah. Those are adjoining cities that are home
to the FLDS, the polygamous offshoot of the Warmon Church.
(15:10):
Now they are oftentimes cut off from the rest of
the world, so to speak, but health officials say the
virus has spread beyond that community, that isolated community and
is now impacting other areas where vaccination rates have dropped
significantly since the pandemic. Right now, the US is dealing
with two other measle outbreaks in South Carolina and Minnesota.
And by the way, this is the worst year in
(15:31):
documented measles cases in more than three decades.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
And we are not alone.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Yes, not just US, folks, our neighbors to the north end,
South Nea, Mexico and parts of Canada dealing with outbreaks.
Canada has so many this year it's expected to lose
its elimination status later this month, and the US is
at risk as well. Now this is a designation elimination status.
We don't hear it all the time, but into designation
given to countries that do not have continuous spread of
(15:57):
measles for more than a year. So it's back. A
former CDC director told The New York Times he's concerned
our whole continent may lose elimination status. They started with
a cluster in Texas that was going to coming up.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
It's scary, but they say with the unvaccination rates during
the pandemic, especially now we're seeing the ressaults of that.
So we had elimination status in two thousand, Canada got
it in nineteen ninety eight, Mexico got it in ninety six,
so this is undoing.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Thirty years. In some cases of elimination status, I.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Didn't realize you're right here in the A lot of
stuff you included. A lot of people have stuff go
by the wayside yep, during the pandemic, didn't take care.
I don't ever take care of my health. So I
didn't really miss anything, but I see, I know a
lot of other people miss some appointments. All right, well,
stay with us, folks here on this Wednesday morning run
when we come back. Well, we thought Trump might pardon Diddy,
(16:52):
Well he might still or he might not. As a
confusing story about out there, about what the president actually
wants to do, we'll explain. Also miracle on thirty fourth Street. Yeah,
the baby's fine, but now police have put out images
of the person they're looking for who possibly abandoned a
baby at Penn Station. Also that Louver heist. I know
(17:14):
what you're thinking, security was messed up. Nope, security worked
exactly how was supposed to when thieves stole one hundred
million dollars worth of stuff. And did you know we
got two moons? Now, all right, folks, let's continue on
this Wednesday morning run with President Trump. Is he considering
(17:37):
pardoning Sean Ditty Combs. Well, yesterday the White House tried
to torpedo a report from TMZ that claims Trump is
considering commuting Diddy's sentence as soon as this week.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
The White House saying, quote, there is zero truth to
the TMZ report, which we would have gladly explained had
they reached out before running their fake news, The president,
not a non missources, is the final decider of pardons
and commutations. TMZ responded by saying they stand by their story.
They say they got their tip from a high ranking
(18:11):
White House official.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
What do you make of this? It didn't seem like
they were flat out denied the White House, right.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
They didn't say that he wasn't going to pardon him.
They just said there isn't truth that he's considering to
do it as soon as this week.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
This week words, man are everything. They couched that he's
considering pardon this kind.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Well, get because I think if they if he wasn't,
they would have flat out said he's not going to
commute his sentence.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Why wouldn't you say it now? Because you haven't decided, right, correct, Damn,
this is on the table. So it's on the table.
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Now you're saying he's got a chance my interpretation.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Oh well, my goodness. Well. Diddy's lawyers confirmed earlier that
they have been pursuing a presidential pardon comes to sentences
earlier this month of fifty months in prison. In August,
Trump was I asked directly about possibly pardoning Combs. What
he said wasn't very encouraging. At the time, he said,
you know, I was very friendly with him. I got
along with him gray and seemed like a nice guy.
I didn't know him well, but when I ran for
office he was very hostile. When you knew someone and
(19:12):
you were fine, and then you run for office and
he made some terrible statements. So I don't know, it's
more difficult, makes it more I'm being honest. It makes
it more difficult to do sounds personal.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I feel like though Diddy was already At several times
we watched him try to butter up the judge.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
I figure if he.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Sends some sort of can't you you can communicate right
with a letter or an email, just buttering yeah, like
it's that would not surprise me at all.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
This is on the table TBD all right.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Next up on the run, the Miracle on thirty four
Street baby is doing okay.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
That's the good news.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
But now police are asking for the public's health help
to find the person who abandoned this newborn baby girl
at New York's Penn Station. The baby was found with
her umbilical cord still attached, wrapped in blankets and left
on a passageway at the train station on Monday.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Police have now released images of a woman they want
to talk to. It shows a woman caring something that
appears to be wrapped in sheets in a blanket like
you would carry a child if you're looking at it.
It's a short video clip, only a few seconds, but
police are hoping someone can identify her. Did you see this.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
She has very identified viable clothing on I noticed like
very loud print, so people might say, oh, I know
who that is based on which what she was wearing
was the most distinguishing thing.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Well, they're going to and again they're looking for this person.
But again, this is a criminal case. This is now
in danger to well to endangering the welfare of a child.
This is not let's reunite everybody in a family, you
get together, No, no, no, this is a crime was
committed and this child was left. Can you this child's
going to be followed for the rest of her life,
little baby that was fine, little miracle on thirty four
on four Street, for the rest of her life. Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Yes, we will keep you updated on that story. But
next up on the run. The louver has reopened in
Paris minus one hundred million in stolen Crown jewels, those
jewels taken in that brazen broad daylight heist on Sunday,
And yes they are still unaccounted for, and the thieves
are still on the loose.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Well we got a number.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Now.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
First they were telling us it was incalculable how much
these jewels were worth. But now they're saying they are
worth an estimated one hundred and two million dollars. Now
you throw into the history of these jewels and they
are absolutely priceless. But the French Culture Minister made sure
to make a point and even emphatically robes that the
security was working as it should have, specifically the cameras
(21:31):
and apparatus is the word they used. It was working
the way it should on the morning of the robbery, saying, quote,
the Louver Museum security apparatus worked. It did not fail.
That is a fact.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
What huh I mean? Okay? So did the alarms go off?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
And if the alarms went off, then the appropriate people
responded with appropriate actions.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
I find it hard to believe to say the security
worked the way it was supposed to and we still
lost one hundred million. So that means the security plan
was flawed.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
And unarmed men were able to steal one hundred million
dollars plus worth of jewelry.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
I can't wait to hear the detail. And again, robes,
you can't sell these so you I mean the way
they are to think these things are can chop down,
possibly to be sold on the black market.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
I mean, yeah, TikTok, right, all right, next up on
the run.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Always of note, when a major streaming service raises its prices,
want to let you know. This time it's HBO Max.
They announced an increase in they're monthly and yearly subscription.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Dollar a month. It's going up for the most basic plan,
so it's going to be ten ninety nine now dollar
fifty for the second tier, and then two dollars more
for the premium plan, so that'll cost you twenty two
ninety nine a month, and the yearly subscriptions will go
up ten dollars, fifteen dollars and twenty dollars. The increases
apply immediately to anybody signing up, but for you current
customers out there, it's not going to go up immediately.
(22:56):
It's not until your next renewal. They'll give you a
heads up and that's when the price is are going
to go on.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I've been getting a lot of those lately from a
lot of streaming services, just a like, hey it's going up,
just buy a dollar or two. But it does start
to add up.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
What was it when Netflix was six ninety nine at
the very beginning, wasn't it without ad What mine is now? Well,
it's twenty two dollars a month for a premium place.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I still haven't consolidated our streaming services, babe.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
It's a problem, all right, app that you just see
what the things you're paying.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Do that that? Oh, I'm going to be appalled at myself.
All right. For the final leg of our run, have
you heard Earth has two moons? Now, I mean not technically.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Technically what we have is a second quasi moon, and
we have two moons.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
We have a quasi moon.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
It's a little space asteroid that will be tagging along
with us until twenty eighty three.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Okay, that's when side to say it will drift away
back into the open space. They know it's going that
direction and not another one.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Right, correct, Yes, that is the concern some people had.
Could it turn against us and come crashing down?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
And they say no, they say no, Okay, Well, the
name of this has a cute orrible name. It's called
twenty twenty five P seven. What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
I guess they found it in twenty twenty five, and
who knows what PN seven means.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Okay? They say this thing is about the size of
a small building. And while NASA Science has just confirmed
the presence of our quasi moon, they believe it's been
here for a while, tracking alongside us for the past
sixty years. We've had two moons my whole life. They're
just telling me. Yep.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
It was a University of Hawaii team that first founded
earlier this year. They noticed a faint speck moving against
the stars, They documented it, and then they realized it, yes,
was following Earth's exact pace around the Sun. A few
weeks later, NASA confirmed that, yes, this is our newest
and temporary traveling partner. It isn't drawn in by Earth's
(24:43):
gravitational pull the way our moon is. It's orbiting the
Sun the way the Earth is, so it's slightly different
than how the Moon operates, and that's why it's just
gonna It's staying with us for a while, but it's
going to go back out. I'm still fascinated that NASA
can tell us exactly when an astra it is going
to leave our orbit in thirty years.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
I don't know, because they didn't know this damn thing
was here for the past sixty.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
But now they can tell us exactly the year it's
going to leave.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
No, they just sound super smart. Okay, like we know
of course. I love now.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
All right, we have our quote of the day for
everyone here on our Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Loved this one.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Three enemies of personal peace regret over yesterday's mistakes, anxiety
over tomorrow's problems, and ingratitude for today's blessings. Those are
the three enemies of personal peace.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
What was the first one? Again?
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Regret over yesterday's mistakes?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Man, start there. Don't even just work on that one
and then work on two and three. Man, you can
just let that go. Stop tripping over things you already survived.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Yes, Then anxiety over tomorrow's problems.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Yeah no, I'm still working on that one.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
And then ingratitude for today's blessings.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Oh, I got a way us to go on that one.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
See, that's something that I think I can switch around
right away. What I've been trying to do is when
I start going over the things I messed up and
am beating myself up over, I immediately.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Say, up, see what you're doing. What can you be
grateful for right now?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
And what can you and I just try to just
But it's all about recognizing that negative thought in the
moment right but we all do it. I'll keep doing it,
you'll keep doing it. But if we can just interrupt it,
that actually creates peace.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
I love. This is all about personal peace.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
You're uh William arthur Ward.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
He is a very wise man.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Had a quote from him last week too, So I'm
gonna keep trying to find more stuff from him, but
I will stop talking and with that, everyone, thanks for
running with us on this Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
I made me robots and I'm TJ. Holmes. We'll talk
to y else.
