Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, thanks for joining us for today's morning run.
It's Wednesday. It's sorry, it's Thursday, October thirtieth. I am
in the wrong run down, actually the truth.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I clicked on the wrong day for their wrong right.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
You know what, people, We're gonna let it ride because
sometimes you all have days like this. You're just a
little off, You're just a little throned. But forgives Wednesday,
Please forgive Amy Robot because today, October thirtieth is actually
a very special day for her. It's her cancer versary, y'all.
Today is the day. It's the anniversary of the day
she found out she had breadst cancer twelve years ago,
(00:47):
and here we are, all these years later. We've been
talking about quite a bit this morning. We'll be posting
an episode about it. But it's funny on this day,
of all days, we've been talking about it all morning.
Our morning has been about this, and you still got
the day wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (00:58):
That is so funny? Yes, we have been fully immersed
in October thirtieth. What it means to me, what it
means to us, what it means in life. Boom and
I clicked on Wednesday when I pulled up our rundown
which we have every morning, and just went with.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
The wrong day and with that happy cancerversary to your baby.
But good luck today with the rest of it, it's
gonna go great. But hello to you all on this
October thirtieth, yesterday is Thursday. A lot to get to today,
including we need to probably give you all the definition
of the word of the year. The word of the
year is essentially two numbers put together. When I said
(01:35):
this to you yesterday, you looked at me and said
what I said, huh, you had no idea what we're
talking about.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
And then I asked you to repeat yourself, and I said,
that's what I thought you said, And I actually am
going to repeat with huh.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
If you haven't seen yet, the word of the year
is six seven. Six' seven is the word of the.
Year and you can't really just say six. Seven it
has to be said a certain six. Seven, okay we'll
explain what's going on with the word of the. Year
but the only REASON i can explain is because a
twelve year old explained it to.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Me is it more embarrassing to say That i've never
even heard of it until The word of The, Years
LIKE i never even recognized or noticed that any young
person was.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
SAYING i only know it because there's a twelve year old.
Now so you just maybe you haven't paid attention To.
Sabine you probably checked out as you've heard or say.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
It SO i heard her say it six seven wait.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Six we'll get into the new word of the. Year
also this, morning Bad bunny has some company at the Super.
Bowl another major international superstar is going to be putting
on a concert the weekend of the Super. Bowl, eh did?

this or not that THE nfl was trying to do
a make good to Some maybe maybe. Not we will
(02:49):
get into. That the remnants Of melissa will tell you
where This this storm is kind of going out. Now
the love this investigation roll just all of a sudden
really heated up. Yesterday we got all over the that's
a better way to put. It they have now arrested
more people than they told us they were looking for
in The loop, height a lot.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
More than they show and they still haven't found all
the ones they were originally looking.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
For this is a confusing, story but some people are. Arrested,
also we talk about what's going on with the. Shutdown
will give you an, update and the update is the
first positive one that we have had in the thirty
days now with the. Shutdown and even though this one's,
positive robust delay.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Much it's something, though we'll take.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
It it's better than the. Others, Also, RAP i don't
know what happened to. Rap it's not that there is
something historic going on the billboard charts right now in
which no rap song is in the billboard top forty
for the first time in what is this forty?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Years didn't they just change the?

Headline this will be the first story we have done
about the government shutdown in the past thirty days that
will include the word.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Optimism all, right, yes, folks here we. Are there's some
hope and optimism being expressed that there is a way
out of this that is. Insight The Senate majority Leader
John thune said talks have and his words picked up
Between republicans And. Democrats but The democrats he's talking about
are not. Leadership he's talking about just the rank and,
File so some lower level folks might be able to
(05:03):
pull this thing. Off he, said this could be a
precursor of things to.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Come they just need six they just need six.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
GROPES i read That fune And schumer haven't met at
all in This the two leaders of The senate haven't even.

Speaker 2 (05:39):

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Couples, yeah talk to my, lawyer talk to my, people.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
All, right, well, Okay As Senate Majority Leader John thune,
Said democrats are looking for an off. Ramp, yes the
clock might have a lot to do with. That, yes
we've been talking About november first quite a. Bit that
is the deadline for. Snap that is food. Stamps it
will literally run. Dry, yes families will not be able
(06:06):
to put food on the table come This. Saturday, also
it also marks the point in which most federal employees
will not have received a full. Paycheck they will be
missing their first full. Paycheck that has a huge impact
obviously on folks bottom.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Line clock. Pain they, say people are in pain enough
now that they're willing to get something. Done it should
not have had to come to, this as we all.
Know continuing on the run now With Hurricane, melissa at
least thirty four deaths attributed to this. Storm, Cuba, Haiti,
Jamaica bahamas all experiencing extensive damage and.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Flooding The bahamas took a hit last night after the
storm made landfall In cuba earlier in the day as
A category three it's now A category, two still a
powerful storm and expected to make its way Across bermuda
tonight before finally heading out to. Sea it is one
of the strongest storms on record in The, atlantic and
it's the strongest ever as A cat five to Hit.
(07:00):
Jamaica that nation is still getting an idea of the
extent of damage power out to most three quarters of the.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Island i'll continue on the run now and we are
back THE us that is in the nuclear testing. Business, apparently,
yeah shake your, ahead didn't know this rose?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Yeah President trump announced yesterday that he has ordered The
pentagon to start conducting nuclear tests.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Again and immediately it's, LIKE i don't even want to,
say we just Watched house Of, Dynamite so this is
JUST i don't know on that from that, perspective just
a little bit. Disturbing and of course he made the
announcement on social. Media The United states has more nuclear
weapons than any other. Country this was, accomplished including a
complete update and renovation of existing weapons during my first
(07:51):
term in office because of the tremendous destructive. POWER i
hated to do, it but had no. Choice russia is,
second And china is a distant, third but will be
even within five years because of other countries testing. PROGRAMS
i have instructed The department Of war formerly known as
(08:11):
The Defense, department to start testing our nuclear weapons on
an equal.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Basis that process will begin.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Immediately don't know what that, means don't, know not exactly
clear about what are the next. Steps and if we're
only going to test one because they test, one don't
know how that's going to. Work but we at The
United states have not tested nuclear weapons in thirty three.
Years that's when a moratorium on nuclear detonations was put
in place By President GEORGE. Hw. Bush the only country
that has tested nuclear weapons since nineteen ninety Eight North. Korea,
(08:45):
wow all.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Right next up on the, run a white former sheriff's
deputy has been convicted for the murder of a black.
Woman he claimed he had to shoot because she was
threatening him with a hot pot of. Water grayson was
found guilty of second degree murder by An illinois jury
in the twenty twenty four death of thirty six year
Old sonya.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Mass, now this was the case that garnered national. Attention
it sparked protests and reignited debates about the policing of minority.
Communities massey had called nine to one one herself for
help about a possible prowler that was in her, yard
and the interaction with the responding, officers including the, shooting
was captured on police body cam. Video it was played
during the. Trial she was actually cowering behind a kitchen
(09:29):
counter when she was. Shot it's hard to. Understand he
said he was scared for his life because this woman
had a pot of boiling water that he thought she
was going to throw on.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Him after she called them for, help because she thought
her life had been, threatened and according to, reports as
she was, cowering she in her last moments had a
red oven mitt in front of her. FACE i, mean
it really is JUST.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
I don't think there are words to describe how incredibly
sad and sense makes no.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Sense oh and we should know the. FAMILY i, mean,
yes he was, convicted but of second. Degree they were
given the option of second, degree so it's not first degree.
Murder so he is now looking at a sentence of
between four to twenty. Years we should also note the
city there In illinois has also already settled with the
family for ten million, dollars so they have Acknowledged, yeah the.
(10:24):
Wrong this.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Was there's just nothing acceptable about what, happened all.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Right next up on The, Run Sean Didny comb's still
trying to get out of. Prison Shawn comb's legal team
filed paperwork with the court yesterday saying they are pushing
for an expedited appeals.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Processing, yes, YEAH i want the appeal heard as soon
as possible in hopes of reducing his fifty month prison.
Sentence as team, says prosecutors have agreed to expedite this
process and the sides are expected to make their arguments
before judge In april of next. Year gotta give him,
credit he keeps trying everything you.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Can that's what expensive. Lawyer all.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Right next up on The, run we have an update
on The louver heist that unfortunately does not include news
that the jewels have been. Found the one hundred two
million dollars worth Of french royal jewels are in fact
officially still.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Missing, however after saying in their press conference yesterday that
they were searching for two more, suspects The paris prosecutor
announced while we were all sleeping that five more suspects
have been arrested in connection with the Heighst the main,
suspect as they put, it was among the group taken into.
Custody he's considered to have been a part of the
(11:35):
four man gang who carried out the heist. Robes Now
i'm officially.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Confused it sounds like there's still one more very important
suspect among that main group of four that is still
on the, lamb and we could maybe assume that that
person has the.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
JEWELS i don't have the order. Net so how many?
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Told so the two men were originally taken into.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Customers, yes and she said that we're looking for two.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
More so that want up the two is among this
group of five that was just. Arrested so that means
one more of the main group is still at.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Large why does that mean one more of the main
group is.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Because they said there were four men who initially were
a part of that heightst that we all.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Saw BUT i thought they only have to do other.
TWO i thought they only need to find two.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
More and they found one of the two and were
the other. Four we don't know who the. Other i'm
just saying one of the main four is still at.
Large perhaps that's the person who still has the.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Jewels, okay so we shall see everybody keep an eye,
out all.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Right next up on the, run The feds cut interest
rates yesterday by a quarter. Point it is the second
time this year The Federal reserve voted to lower interest,
rates bringing those rates down to the lowest level they've
been in three.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Years and there are strong expectations of a third rate
cut at the next meeting In. December but The fed
Chaired Your Own power said it's not a four goone,
conclusion adding there were strongly differing views about how to move.
Forward this was the first time and modern, history officials
have to make these important decisions about rate cuts in
the world economy without all of the information needed, robes
(13:09):
they didn't have the entire month of jobs.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Numbers that's.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Right the government shutdown meant The Federal reserve had to
make their decision based on data that only ended In.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
August that's never happened. Before so this.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Is part of what we're dealing with with this prolonged government.
Shutdown and they say if it, continues there are serious
concerns about further rate. Cuts so actually having this government
shutdown may mean that The Federal reserve might be more conservative.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
In making a rate cut In.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
December which will have a massive impact on the stock, market.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Etc, YEAH i don't know If nvidia gives a damn
about what THE fed, does because they are, rolling, rolling, Rolling,
yes next leg of our run takes us to the stock,
market Where nvidia has become the first company in history
to cross the five trillion dollar. Mark milestone comes as
demand FOR ai is making a growing impact on the

Economy, yes this chip making company has had a recent
influx of deals in partnerships with some of the biggest
companies IN ai and Corporate. America And vidia closed yesterday
with a market value a five point h three, trillion
and there is likely more money to. Come the company, Said,
Yeah we've already shipped out six billion chips that power
(14:27):
THE ai. Industry but by the, way we have orders
for fourteen million.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
More, hey you know what do you? Think? Congratulations who
did that In? Nvidia?

All continue on the run, now still on a music,
Note rap there's really fallen off. Lately it has literally
fallen off the. Charts there is no rap song on
(18:37):
The Billboard top. Forty. NOW i assume most of you
aren't keeping up with. THAT i don't. KNOW i didn't keep.
Up but it's noteworthy because this is the first time
since nineteen ninety that there has not been a rap
song in the top forty.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Robes that is worth.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Noting Kendrick Lamar's, luther WHICH i listen to on repeat, here.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Just dropped out of the top.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Forty why, well because the rules have. Changed Bill board
has changed the. Rules highest ranking raps on right now
Is Young boys Shot calling at number forty.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Four don't know what that, is.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
But, yeah but we talked about this they changed the
rule because so many songs were on the charts for so,
long big, hit because of streaming and, whatnot they just
end up getting rated really. High luther had been on
there for a full year plus and they just changed
tweak and a bunch of songs got dropped.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Off but how do they then decide if it's not
based on, streaming how do they then?
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Decide, okay in today's, Era, okay.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
This is going to sound crazy, music but they have
to say if it's been they it's a matter if
it's been on this much time and it has to
be at this at least this high on the. Chart
it really is an equation having to do with the
time it's been, out how high it is on the,
chart and if it doesn't meet a, threshold they get
dropped off and a bunch of Songs Teddy swim song
is lose. Control, yeah it got dumped off after like
(19:58):
a two year run almost on the. Charts so that's what's.
Happened Bis marquis was the nineteen ninety song that was
On it's been that long Ro, wow this has happened all?
Right last leg of the Run hero This. Thursday dictionary
Dot com word of the year is one THAT robe
never heard of until. Yesterday the word is six. Seven
now you did hear me just say two, digits the
(20:21):
number six and the number, seven but you took put
them together and they become six, seven which is the
word of the. Year this is something that is not
what's the ones? Before jen, alpha gen, z.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Gen z avan analys er gen. Z this is zanus jen.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Alpha this is too new for your. Daughters even this
is a.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
YEAH i wonder if they know what six to seven.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Means, well please explain dictionary dot com OR i was
trying to explain what six seven means and why it
made the word of the.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Year so searches for six seven experienced a dramatic rise
beginning in the summer of twenty twenty. Five Since, june
those searches have increased more than, sixfold and so far
the serge shows no signs of. Stopping most other two
digit numbers had no meaningful trend over that, period implying
that there is something special about six. Seven AND i
(21:13):
would argue that searches for six to seven were from
folks who were age twenty two and, above, saying what
the hell are these kids?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Talking About, YES i have to see it and hear
it all day, long AND i got an idea of
what it. Was and you can't just say six to.
Seven you have to say six to. Seven they have
to say it a certain, way and as you do,
it you have to have your hands out and it's
like you're almost. Juggling you're like, Six it's like you're
weighing something this option of that one. Eleven you have
to do this like.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
The weight of, justice like the like almost that whole
thing where you're like six.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Seven but so so this is a yell persons. Thing
it came from a song Called Dupe dude from a
guy Named scrilla and there's a line in there where
he says six to seven and that's, it. Folks it
is a, meaningless really expressionless. Thing so is this a TikTok?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Thing was his? Song it's a viral hit made popular on.
Tiktoks that's all you need To.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Telly and then there was a video that was put
together BY i think it was an athlete that said
he was his height was six, seven and they used
the song lyric and he was saying it just went
crazy and everybody's saying six olve you know what it.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Is it's one of those inside joke things where you're
so you think it's so funny because you, know old
people know so much more than you.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Do, well, yeah we got something on. You you don't
know what six.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Seven here's the thing That savine was complaining about. Yesterday
they're now ready to give it. Up she thinks is
going to cycle out because it's become two mainstreams now
and their teacher said it or something the other they shut.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Up oh, yeah once an older person tries to take it,
on it's. Done it's jumped the.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Shark so this will be done. Shortly, okay.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Good so just as soon AS i figured out that
six seven is, MEANINGLESS i don't even need to know
what six seven.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Is, nope you're six seven and. Whatever that is all?
Speaker 1 (22:53):

Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, thanks for joining us for today's morning run.
It's Wednesday. It's sorry, it's Thursday, October thirtieth. I am
in the wrong run down, actually the truth.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I clicked on the wrong day for their wrong right.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
You know what, people, We're gonna let it ride because
sometimes you all have days like this. You're just a
little off, You're just a little throned. But forgives Wednesday,
Please forgive Amy Robot because today, October thirtieth is actually
a very special day for her. It's her cancer versary, y'all.
Today is the day. It's the anniversary of the day
she found out she had breadst cancer twelve years ago,
(00:47):
and here we are, all these years later. We've been
talking about quite a bit this morning. We'll be posting
an episode about it. But it's funny on this day,
of all days, we've been talking about it all morning.
Our morning has been about this, and you still got
the day wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (00:58):
That is so funny? Yes, we have been fully immersed
in October thirtieth. What it means to me, what it
means to us, what it means in life. Boom and
I clicked on Wednesday when I pulled up our rundown
which we have every morning, and just went with.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
The wrong day and with that happy cancerversary to your baby.
But good luck today with the rest of it, it's
gonna go great. But hello to you all on this
October thirtieth, yesterday is Thursday. A lot to get to today,
including we need to probably give you all the definition
of the word of the year. The word of the
year is essentially two numbers put together. When I said
(01:35):
this to you yesterday, you looked at me and said
what I said, huh, you had no idea what we're
talking about.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
And then I asked you to repeat yourself, and I said,
that's what I thought you said, And I actually am
going to repeat with huh.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
If you haven't seen yet, the word of the year
is six seven. Six' seven is the word of the.
Year and you can't really just say six. Seven it
has to be said a certain six. Seven, okay we'll
explain what's going on with the word of the. Year
but the only REASON i can explain is because a
twelve year old explained it to.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Me is it more embarrassing to say That i've never
even heard of it until The word of The, Years
LIKE i never even recognized or noticed that any young
person was.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
SAYING i only know it because there's a twelve year old.
Now so you just maybe you haven't paid attention To.
Sabine you probably checked out as you've heard or say.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
It SO i heard her say it six seven wait.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Six we'll get into the new word of the. Year
also this, morning Bad bunny has some company at the Super.
Bowl another major international superstar is going to be putting
on a concert the weekend of the Super. Bowl, eh did?
YOU i don't know if we should make much of
this or not that THE nfl was trying to do
a make good to Some maybe maybe. Not we will
(02:49):
get into. That the remnants Of melissa will tell you
where This this storm is kind of going out. Now
the love this investigation roll just all of a sudden
really heated up. Yesterday we got all over the that's
a better way to put. It they have now arrested
more people than they told us they were looking for
in The loop, height a lot.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
More than they show and they still haven't found all
the ones they were originally looking.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
For this is a confusing, story but some people are. Arrested,
also we talk about what's going on with the. Shutdown
will give you an, update and the update is the
first positive one that we have had in the thirty
days now with the. Shutdown and even though this one's,
positive robust delay.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Much it's something, though we'll take.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
It it's better than the. Others, Also, RAP i don't
know what happened to. Rap it's not that there is
something historic going on the billboard charts right now in
which no rap song is in the billboard top forty
for the first time in what is this forty?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Years didn't they just change the?
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Rules, yes and there is a very good reason for.
That also this morning on the, rundown you know the
fag cut interest. Rates, also THE us is back in
the nuclear testing. Business diddy trying to get out of
jail once, again a cop has been. Convicted and McKenzie,
scott she certainly thinks that black lives. Matter Mackenzie scott
(04:15):
has done something once again incredible in her philanthropic. Journey
will tell you what her latest donation.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Is all, right but we do begin our run on This,
Thursday october. Thirtieth, yes with the government, shutdown but we
begin with a new.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Headline this will be the first story we have done
about the government shutdown in the past thirty days that
will include the word.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Optimism all, right, yes, folks here we. Are there's some
hope and optimism being expressed that there is a way
out of this that is. Insight The Senate majority Leader
John thune said talks have and his words picked up
Between republicans And. Democrats but The democrats he's talking about
are not. Leadership he's talking about just the rank and,
File so some lower level folks might be able to
(05:03):
pull this thing. Off he, said this could be a
precursor of things to.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Come they just need six they just need six.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
GROPES i read That fune And schumer haven't met at
all in This the two leaders of The senate haven't even.
Met okay is that.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
True if it's, true that is appalling actually and not
a Good like what do we teach our kids and
as adults we can't even follow?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Through?
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Wow, OKAY i was amazed by that that they haven't
even met for, Tea how are we going to get
anywhere if the two leaders who are in charge OF
i Didn't, Again i'd throw that in there Because it
threw me WHEN.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I it's like divorcing.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Couples, yeah talk to my, lawyer talk to my, people.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
All, right, well, Okay As Senate Majority Leader John thune,
Said democrats are looking for an off. Ramp, yes the
clock might have a lot to do with. That, yes
we've been talking About november first quite a. Bit that
is the deadline for. Snap that is food. Stamps it
will literally run. Dry, yes families will not be able
(06:06):
to put food on the table come This. Saturday, also
it also marks the point in which most federal employees
will not have received a full. Paycheck they will be
missing their first full. Paycheck that has a huge impact
obviously on folks bottom.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Line clock. Pain they, say people are in pain enough
now that they're willing to get something. Done it should
not have had to come to, this as we all.
Know continuing on the run now With Hurricane, melissa at
least thirty four deaths attributed to this. Storm, Cuba, Haiti,
Jamaica bahamas all experiencing extensive damage and.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Flooding The bahamas took a hit last night after the
storm made landfall In cuba earlier in the day as
A category three it's now A category, two still a
powerful storm and expected to make its way Across bermuda
tonight before finally heading out to. Sea it is one
of the strongest storms on record in The, atlantic and
it's the strongest ever as A cat five to Hit.
(07:00):
Jamaica that nation is still getting an idea of the
extent of damage power out to most three quarters of the.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Island i'll continue on the run now and we are
back THE us that is in the nuclear testing. Business, apparently,
yeah shake your, ahead didn't know this rose?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Yeah President trump announced yesterday that he has ordered The
pentagon to start conducting nuclear tests.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Again and immediately it's, LIKE i don't even want to,
say we just Watched house Of, Dynamite so this is
JUST i don't know on that from that, perspective just
a little bit. Disturbing and of course he made the
announcement on social. Media The United states has more nuclear
weapons than any other. Country this was, accomplished including a
complete update and renovation of existing weapons during my first
(07:51):
term in office because of the tremendous destructive. POWER i
hated to do, it but had no. Choice russia is,
second And china is a distant, third but will be
even within five years because of other countries testing. PROGRAMS
i have instructed The department Of war formerly known as
(08:11):
The Defense, department to start testing our nuclear weapons on
an equal.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Basis that process will begin.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Immediately don't know what that, means don't, know not exactly
clear about what are the next. Steps and if we're
only going to test one because they test, one don't
know how that's going to. Work but we at The
United states have not tested nuclear weapons in thirty three.
Years that's when a moratorium on nuclear detonations was put
in place By President GEORGE. Hw. Bush the only country
that has tested nuclear weapons since nineteen ninety Eight North. Korea,
(08:45):
wow all.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Right next up on the, run a white former sheriff's
deputy has been convicted for the murder of a black.
Woman he claimed he had to shoot because she was
threatening him with a hot pot of. Water grayson was
found guilty of second degree murder by An illinois jury
in the twenty twenty four death of thirty six year
Old sonya.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Mass, now this was the case that garnered national. Attention
it sparked protests and reignited debates about the policing of minority.
Communities massey had called nine to one one herself for
help about a possible prowler that was in her, yard
and the interaction with the responding, officers including the, shooting
was captured on police body cam. Video it was played
during the. Trial she was actually cowering behind a kitchen
(09:29):
counter when she was. Shot it's hard to. Understand he
said he was scared for his life because this woman
had a pot of boiling water that he thought she
was going to throw on.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Him after she called them for, help because she thought
her life had been, threatened and according to, reports as
she was, cowering she in her last moments had a
red oven mitt in front of her. FACE i, mean
it really is JUST.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
I don't think there are words to describe how incredibly
sad and sense makes no.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Sense oh and we should know the. FAMILY i, mean,
yes he was, convicted but of second. Degree they were
given the option of second, degree so it's not first degree.
Murder so he is now looking at a sentence of
between four to twenty. Years we should also note the
city there In illinois has also already settled with the
family for ten million, dollars so they have Acknowledged, yeah the.
(10:24):
Wrong this.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Was there's just nothing acceptable about what, happened all.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Right next up on The, Run Sean Didny comb's still
trying to get out of. Prison Shawn comb's legal team
filed paperwork with the court yesterday saying they are pushing
for an expedited appeals.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Processing, yes, YEAH i want the appeal heard as soon
as possible in hopes of reducing his fifty month prison.
Sentence as team, says prosecutors have agreed to expedite this
process and the sides are expected to make their arguments
before judge In april of next. Year gotta give him,
credit he keeps trying everything you.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Can that's what expensive. Lawyer all.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Right next up on The, run we have an update
on The louver heist that unfortunately does not include news
that the jewels have been. Found the one hundred two
million dollars worth Of french royal jewels are in fact
officially still.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Missing, however after saying in their press conference yesterday that
they were searching for two more, suspects The paris prosecutor
announced while we were all sleeping that five more suspects
have been arrested in connection with the Heighst the main,
suspect as they put, it was among the group taken into.
Custody he's considered to have been a part of the
(11:35):
four man gang who carried out the heist. Robes Now
i'm officially.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Confused it sounds like there's still one more very important
suspect among that main group of four that is still
on the, lamb and we could maybe assume that that
person has the.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
JEWELS i don't have the order. Net so how many?
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Told so the two men were originally taken into.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Customers, yes and she said that we're looking for two.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
More so that want up the two is among this
group of five that was just. Arrested so that means
one more of the main group is still at.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Large why does that mean one more of the main
group is.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Because they said there were four men who initially were
a part of that heightst that we all.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Saw BUT i thought they only have to do other.
TWO i thought they only need to find two.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
More and they found one of the two and were
the other. Four we don't know who the. Other i'm
just saying one of the main four is still at.
Large perhaps that's the person who still has the.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Jewels, okay so we shall see everybody keep an eye,
out all.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Right next up on the, run The feds cut interest
rates yesterday by a quarter. Point it is the second
time this year The Federal reserve voted to lower interest,
rates bringing those rates down to the lowest level they've
been in three.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Years and there are strong expectations of a third rate
cut at the next meeting In. December but The fed
Chaired Your Own power said it's not a four goone,
conclusion adding there were strongly differing views about how to move.
Forward this was the first time and modern, history officials
have to make these important decisions about rate cuts in
the world economy without all of the information needed, robes
(13:09):
they didn't have the entire month of jobs.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Numbers that's.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Right the government shutdown meant The Federal reserve had to
make their decision based on data that only ended In.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
August that's never happened. Before so this.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Is part of what we're dealing with with this prolonged government.
Shutdown and they say if it, continues there are serious
concerns about further rate. Cuts so actually having this government
shutdown may mean that The Federal reserve might be more conservative.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
In making a rate cut In.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
December which will have a massive impact on the stock, market.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Etc, YEAH i don't know If nvidia gives a damn
about what THE fed, does because they are, rolling, rolling, Rolling,
yes next leg of our run takes us to the stock,
market Where nvidia has become the first company in history
to cross the five trillion dollar. Mark milestone comes as

Economy, yes this chip making company has had a recent
influx of deals in partnerships with some of the biggest
companies IN ai and Corporate. America And vidia closed yesterday
with a market value a five point h three, trillion
and there is likely more money to. Come the company, Said,
Yeah we've already shipped out six billion chips that power
(14:27):
THE ai. Industry but by the, way we have orders
for fourteen million.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
More, hey you know what do you? Think? Congratulations who
did that In? Nvidia?
Speaker 2 (14:38):

All continue on the run, now still on a music,
Note rap there's really fallen off. Lately it has literally
fallen off the. Charts there is no rap song on
(18:37):
The Billboard top. Forty. NOW i assume most of you
aren't keeping up with. THAT i don't. KNOW i didn't keep.
Up but it's noteworthy because this is the first time
since nineteen ninety that there has not been a rap
song in the top forty.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Robes that is worth.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Noting Kendrick Lamar's, luther WHICH i listen to on repeat, here.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Just dropped out of the top.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Forty why, well because the rules have. Changed Bill board
has changed the. Rules highest ranking raps on right now
Is Young boys Shot calling at number forty.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Four don't know what that, is.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
But, yeah but we talked about this they changed the
rule because so many songs were on the charts for so,
long big, hit because of streaming and, whatnot they just
end up getting rated really. High luther had been on
there for a full year plus and they just changed
tweak and a bunch of songs got dropped.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Off but how do they then decide if it's not
based on, streaming how do they then?
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Decide, okay in today's, Era, okay.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
This is going to sound crazy, music but they have
to say if it's been they it's a matter if
it's been on this much time and it has to
be at this at least this high on the. Chart
it really is an equation having to do with the
time it's been, out how high it is on the,
chart and if it doesn't meet a, threshold they get
dropped off and a bunch of Songs Teddy swim song
is lose. Control, yeah it got dumped off after like
(19:58):
a two year run almost on the. Charts so that's what's.
Happened Bis marquis was the nineteen ninety song that was
On it's been that long Ro, wow this has happened all?
Right last leg of the Run hero This. Thursday dictionary
Dot com word of the year is one THAT robe
never heard of until. Yesterday the word is six. Seven
now you did hear me just say two, digits the
(20:21):
number six and the number, seven but you took put
them together and they become six, seven which is the
word of the. Year this is something that is not
what's the ones? Before jen, alpha gen, z.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Gen z avan analys er gen. Z this is zanus jen.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Alpha this is too new for your. Daughters even this
is a.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
YEAH i wonder if they know what six to seven.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Means, well please explain dictionary dot com OR i was
trying to explain what six seven means and why it
made the word of the.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Year so searches for six seven experienced a dramatic rise
beginning in the summer of twenty twenty. Five Since, june
those searches have increased more than, sixfold and so far
the serge shows no signs of. Stopping most other two
digit numbers had no meaningful trend over that, period implying
that there is something special about six. Seven AND i
(21:13):
would argue that searches for six to seven were from
folks who were age twenty two and, above, saying what
the hell are these kids?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Talking About, YES i have to see it and hear
it all day, long AND i got an idea of
what it. Was and you can't just say six to.
Seven you have to say six to. Seven they have
to say it a certain, way and as you do,
it you have to have your hands out and it's
like you're almost. Juggling you're like, Six it's like you're
weighing something this option of that one. Eleven you have
to do this like.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
The weight of, justice like the like almost that whole
thing where you're like six.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Seven but so so this is a yell persons. Thing
it came from a song Called Dupe dude from a
guy Named scrilla and there's a line in there where
he says six to seven and that's, it. Folks it
is a, meaningless really expressionless. Thing so is this a TikTok?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Thing was his? Song it's a viral hit made popular on.
Tiktoks that's all you need To.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Telly and then there was a video that was put
together BY i think it was an athlete that said
he was his height was six, seven and they used
the song lyric and he was saying it just went
crazy and everybody's saying six olve you know what it.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Is it's one of those inside joke things where you're
so you think it's so funny because you, know old
people know so much more than you.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Do, well, yeah we got something on. You you don't
know what six.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Seven here's the thing That savine was complaining about. Yesterday
they're now ready to give it. Up she thinks is
going to cycle out because it's become two mainstreams now
and their teacher said it or something the other they shut.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Up oh, yeah once an older person tries to take it,
on it's. Done it's jumped the.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Shark so this will be done. Shortly, okay.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Good so just as soon AS i figured out that
six seven is, MEANINGLESS i don't even need to know
what six seven.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Is, nope you're six seven and. Whatever that is all?
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Right and with, that how about we leave you with
some actual wisdom in our quote the day for This.
