Speaker 1 (00:01):
Morning Run with Amy and TJ an iHeartRadio podcast. Good
morning everyone, It's Tuesday, October seventh.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. And if you're
not feeling the impact of the shutdown just yet, try
this one on for size. The airport you're flying into
or out of has no air traffic controllers in the tower.
Sounds a little scary. This actually happened. There is an
airport that yesterday had zero air traffic controllers and robes
(00:30):
is not just that airport. This starts a trickle down
effect and now a lot of people are seeing delays
all over the country. So let you know what's happening there. Also,
don't need to tell you you probably know more than
we do about what's going on with Taylor Swift. But
she is now to the point robe she's the only
record she's breaking belonged to.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Her, right, That's something when you're breaking your own records,
that kind of says a lot. And she could even
break more records just by way the way the first
day went.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yes, we'll give you the latest on Taylor Swift. Also,
this is a scary story out there. I say scary,
I use that loosely, but it's scary for fans of
the most famous spy in the world. Why Double O
seven has been disarmed. They have taken his gun away,
and fans and fanatics like me are really concerned about
(01:23):
the future of this franchise. Also, it's Tuesday, so somebody
sue Trump and you can probably guess who and probably
guess why. But we'll explain that in the second. Also,
your Apple podcast app top right corner, where it says
follow click that button on our show page and then
you can get our updates anytime coming at you. But
also on the run this morning, the peace talks continue
(01:44):
today on what is this two year anniversary of the
Gods of War. Also, Trump wants to use the same
law President Kennedy used to enforce school integration, but he
wants to use it for something else. Also, Mark Sanchez
facing more serious charges, and Diddy has now officially asked
told he has asked for a huge favor. Hmmm.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
We'll get into all of that, but first we do
begin our run in Washington, d C. Where the Senate
voted on two bills that would reopen the government. The
problem is both bills failed to pass, and that was
really no surprise whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
And so here we are now on day seven. As expected,
one of these bills was a Democrat backed plan, the
other one was favored by the Republicans. So here we
are day seven of the shutdown. So what exactly happens now?
Not exactly sure.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, the President earlier in the day yesterday said negotiations
were ongoing and that it could lead to very good things.
But then later in the day he said he was
willing to negotiate, but only after Democrats would agree to
temporary spending measures to reopen the government. So there was
a if only, and that if only is not going
(02:54):
to happen from the Democratic side.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Yes, So we continue on the run here with the
impact of the shutdown and all that back and forth. Yes,
people are missing their paychecks. That is going to be awful,
But a lot of people, not government workers, are impacted
in a bunch of different ways, and that includes airline passengers.
So we're seeing this at airports now in impact, and
one California airport yesterday announced ahead of time we will
(03:19):
not have any air traffic controllers on Monday night.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yep, you heard that right. Burdbank Airport announced they would
have no ATC, no air traffic controllers available between the
hours of four to ten pm. That means absolutely no
one was in the tower. So they had to find
a work around. They had to use air traffic controllers
out of San Diego, which then caused an average two
and a half hour delay for flights coming out of Burbanka.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
And this is not just inconvenient, it's dangerous. And this
illustrates what we're talking about with the impact of a shutdown.
So you have thirteen thousand air traffic controllers who are
considered essential workers, so during a shutdown, they're required to
come to work without pay. But controllers have been calling
out sick in higher numbers that is causing a system
(04:08):
wide strain. The Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said they are
seeing staffing shortages as much as fifty percent in some places.
They're essential, they have to be there. But he also
made a point, I didn't think about this. You don't
want somebody at work stressed about their bills. These folks
got bills to pay, so you don't want them calling
out six Some of thems had to hell with it.
I'm not going into work. That's fine, and understand and
(04:30):
some are genuinely sick. Sure, but man, the thought of
a stressed out air traffic controller.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Scares me as well, because it's already a stressful job.
So you want to come in with peace of mind,
or at least knowing that they're being compensated for the work,
the life saving work that they are doing each and
every day.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I didn't think about it, but when he put it
that way, so, yes, one tower has a shortage, we
now have to use and strain another air traffic control
tower delays all throughout the system.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
All right, Next up on the run. Today it is
the two year anniversary of the attack that started that
still ongoing war in Gaza. It was October seventh, twenty
twenty three, that Hamas militants launched an attack that killed
twelve hundred people. Two hundred and fifty one hostages were taken.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Since this war began, sixty seven thousand people have died,
a third of them children. This according to the Gaza
Ministry of Health. On this anniversary, though, there is some
hope talks continuing Indra as we speak, it will continue
today between Israel and Hamas about accepting President Trump's twenty
point peace.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Plan and we are going to head back now to Washington,
d C. For the next leg of our run. And
President Trump was asked yesterday about a possible pardon for
Gallaine Maxwell after the Supreme Court refused to hear her appeal.
The President's response, I would say unexpected, because all he
said was who.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Well, seriously, folks, he actually did use the he in
his response. He was asked in the Oval office about
the possibility of partning her since the Supreme Court effectively
ended her legal attempts to have her sex abuse convictions
and twenty year sentence overturned. Now, as he was being
asked the question, the President interrupted the reporter who was
(06:10):
asking by saying, who are we talking about?
Speaker 1 (06:14):
But then he went on to say this. You know,
I haven't heard the name in so long. I can
say this that I'd have to take a look at it.
Then he started asking some questions to the reporter. Did
they reject that? What happened? I see as if he
weren't up on this major headline that pretty much was
everywhere yesterday.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I don't know if it was performative or not. He's
a busy man, and I don't know if he's keeping
up with all the headlines if everybody would give him
a heads up. But he is a guy who does
keep up. But he was.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
It seemed, it seemed genuine.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Well, it seemed performative and bizarre that he wouldn't be
aware he does.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yes, because of course this has been a thorn in
his side for the past several months and certainly for
even longer than that, but even it's been ramped up
in the last couple of months. So this is how
Trump concluded everything. He said, Well, I'll take look at it.
I'll speak to the DOJ. I wouldn't consider it or
not consider it. I don't know anything about it.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
It's possible, but the school as far as saying, who,
I haven't heard that name in so long, it could
be possible. Maybe they know not to even bring it
up around him. Okay, maybe that's it. But to add
to some skepticism about his reaction, this moment happened during
the same Q and A. While he was going back
and forth about Gallaine Maxwell, the President turns out of
(07:29):
nowhere to Diddy and he revealed that, yes, Sean Diddy
Combs has asked him for a pardon. At the end
of his answer about Maxwell, again, he was tired of
kind of dancing around that, and he said, Hey, a
lot of people ask me for pardons. I call him
puff Daddy. He asked me for a pardon, and then
that was all he said.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Well, but he knew that that was going to be
maybe what Yes, that was going to absolutely shift people's
focus immediately. Earlier this summer, a member of Diddy's defense
team did reveal that it was an understanding that they
had reached out and asked for a pardon, but this
was the first time the White House actually confirmed that
that happened. Combs was sentenced to fifty months in prison
(08:10):
last week for his two convictions on charges of transportation
to engage in prostitution. So we have no idea where
Trump stands on a possible Diddy pardon, But again, he
didn't rule it out. He didn't rule a Maxwell pardon out.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
What do you do now that you've said it out loud,
does that mean you have I'm not sure if he
has to respond at all, or you can just ignore
it and go about his day. But if there's a
formal request now then they have to consider it.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Well, you can bet until we know what he decides
to do or not do. Reporters will be asking him
about a daily man.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, all right, you know what we said, talk about
did he possibly getting a pardon? We didn't think much
of it, but now the President has kind of elevated
it and put it out there.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
He offered it up.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Man, man, man, all right. He'll continue on our run
here now with our favorite and our law running segment
here on the Morning Run. It's back this morning. It's
a segment we call Hoo done gone and sue Trump. Now.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Well, today it's the city of Chicago and the state
of Illinois. And you can probably guess why the President
wants to send National Guard troops to patrol the city.
It's a move he's called necessary in particular cities that
just so happened to be Democrat run to cut down
on crime.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, I judged and immediately signed with Illinois officials, but
instead gave the administration until tomorrow night to respond and
in oral arguments on the case are scheduled for Thursday.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
But even if the President doesn't get his way in court,
he has signaled he would be willing to use another
eyebrow raising option. Trump said yesterday he would consider invoking
the Insurrection Acts.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Okay, so what is that. You'll probably be hearing more
about it in recent upcoming days, but it's only been
used thirty times in the United States. It allows for
US troops to be deployed by the president on US
soil in limited situations. Has been used in this country
since nineteen ninety two, and that was to take care
or handle to help the la riots at the time.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
It was also invoked by Presidents Kennedy and Eisenhower to
enforce school integration after the Supreme Court's Brown Versus Board
of Education decision. President Trump said this yesterday about the
Insurrection Act. I do it if it was necessary. So
far it hasn't been necessary. But we have an Insurrection
Act for a reason. If people were being killed and
(10:28):
courts were holding us up, or governors or mayors were
holding us up, sure I do that. We have to
make sure that our cities are safe. If you take
a look at what's been going on in Portland, it's
been going on for a long time, and that's insurrection.
I mean, that's pure insurrection.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
He's stating his case out loud that what he is
seeing is insurrection. Therefore, I can use this Act my goodness.
All right, folks, we want to continue on the run
this morning Wednesday, No, Tuesday, it's Tuesday, damn continue on
their own. Tuesday morning, We're going to head back to Indianapolis.
(11:05):
A lot of news coming out of there about former
NFL quarterback and current Fox Sports analyst Mark Sanchez. He
is now facing a felony battery charge after an altercation
that left him stabbed and in the hospital.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
He was initially facing misdemeanors after police say the thirty
eight year old current Fox Sport analyst was the aggressor
in a fight with a sixty nine year old truck driver.
The fight, police say was over a parking spot. The
driver said Sanchez reeked of alcohol and thought that Sanchez
was trying to kill him, so he defended himself with
(11:39):
his knife.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
You know, I call this a fight, and they are
calling this more so an assault. He went after the
sixty nine year old man was doing his job with
the truck. It was parked some loading dock. Have no
idea why Sanchez was upset, They said they have this
incident on camera from several angles. The driver has filed
a lawsuit against Sanchez and his employer, Fox Sports. Sanchez
(12:01):
is still recovering in the hospital.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Do we know if there were any injuries to the driver.
It's so interesting that okay.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
So yes cut on his face him from the look, but.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Sanchez didn't have a weapon. He just was using his
fists as.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Far as we know. Nothing reported to have had a weapon.
But a knife was invault. And again for them to
say they have several angles. You remember, the first thing
came out like, oh my goodness, the quarterback guy's been stabbed?
Is he Okay? I thought maybe he'd been robbed or gotten.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
It seemed like he was the victim.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And then the next thing, you know, they charged the guy. Wow,
all right, stay with us here on this Tuesday Morning Run.
When we come back, folks, James Bond has had his
gun taken away and fans are pissed. Also, Taylor Swift,
you might have heard, you know, what's going on with her,
but we have one headline about her. Maybe you haven't
(12:48):
heard just yet.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
We continue Tuesday Morning Run with Double seven being disarmed.
Amazon Prime Video took James Bond's guns away and fans
weren't exactly pleased.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Okay, so what is happening here? Prime Video, which now
owns the rights to the Bond franchise and will be
producing the next Bond film. Well, they released updated movie
posters for several old Bond movies, famous and classic Bond movies,
and each of these posters, Bond's gun was removed. We
were talking about the classic poster Sean Connery with his
(13:33):
arms crossed for Doctor No pistol in his hand. That
gun is now gone. Same goals for Daniel Craig, Pierce Broslon,
and on and on. The gun of James Bond was
taken out of his hand for all of these.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Uh no official word from Amazon Prime Video. But those
posters have now been removed, and so what has That's
just it's just upsetting because you're messing with something that's
already been established and in place in a big part
of the franchise.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
The same family has had and been in charge of
the Bond franchise. The first movie outside of that group
to make one is going to be Amazon Prime So
we're all nervous and standing by. They're gonna do the
franchise right. And one of the first signs is that
they took his gun away. People wonder what are they thinking?
Is this are we being sensitive here and too sensitive
(14:21):
and not is it gun imagery? I don't. They haven't
said anything so seemed like a way over correction or
what is the point of.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I'm guessing it's a correction from all of the recent
shootings and the talk about gun violence in America that
they've now decided not to glamorize it or make it
to be something that we would aspire to, you.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Know, we say that, But the first folks to take
it down was the UK version of the Amazon Prime website,
and they're gonna be more pissed. This is their guy.
This is a British dude. Ah, it's a bizarre story,
but we will stand by and we will see final
leg here. Have you heard? Taylor Swift is engaged, has
a new album was number one at the box office
over the weekend. She likes cats and for all intents
and purposes, is the most awesome person ever. And to
(15:09):
add how wonderful this young lady is. We now have
more things to heap praise on her for her new
album is a record center.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
That's right. She beat her own record for first week
album sales in just one day. The Life of a
Showgirl sold two point seven million copies on the first
day of sales. That was on Friday. The only album
in history to sell more copies in the first week
is Adele's twenty five that was in twenty fifteen. She
sold three point three seven eight million, again in the
(15:41):
first week. Taylor's numbers are in the first day. And
who knew that. Taylor's album also set a record for
most vinyl copies sold in a single week one point
two million. You were even asking when we talked about
last week when her album dropped that Target stores opened
at midnight. You're like, what are they buying? Because don't
we just all stream everything now? But yeah, I guess
(16:02):
people actually were waiting to buy vinyl renditions or additions.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
I applaud that. I thought it was just me. I
don't know anybody else with a record player. We play
it every single day here in the house.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yes, every day it's retro, but it's kind of becoming
retro chic now.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I feel like, apparently I had no and who's lining
up at midnight? I assume was a bunch of kids.
Kids are listening to vinyl?
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Well you know what I think that? I mean, record
players are in now?
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Hey man, I applaud that, So that's wonderful to hear.
But before we let you go, folks, something we'd like
for you to consider it is our quote.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Of the day, and TJ picked this one out today.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I'm not sure where I pulled this one out of,
so I will take this one for you and let
you take it in this time Robes quote. What we
become depends not on conditions, but on decisions. Somebody with
your identical conditions made a different decisions and had a
different outcome. I'm not sure where I got it. I think
(16:59):
it was my past. Very usual, yes, out of Atlanta.
But the idea we always try to sometimes blame why
is this happening to me? Why are these conditions? If
I could just get out of these conditions, this is
the reason for where I am. It just gives you
a simpler way to think about it.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yes, not only does it remind you that you actually
you don't have control of outside forces, but you do
have control over how you choose to react to them
and decide to deal with them, basically, and that does
change the direction of your life. It definitely affects your
future every decision you make. So yes, it's more about
empowerment and also recognizing, yes, that you can't just point
(17:37):
the finger at other people other things and say this
is why I'm here, this is why. No, we all
have to look inward and recognize the impact of our choices.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
So I think it came from my pastor, so I
want to partially give him credit Dale Bronna out of Atlanta.
If it wasn't his and he stole it from somebody else's,
apologies to that somebody, but this is where I got it.
So the quote what we become depends not on conditions,
but on decisions. Somebody with your identical conditions made a
different decision and had a different outcome. And with that, folks,
(18:10):
we always appreciate you running with us.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So I'm teaching, and I'm Amy Roeboch. We all talk
to you real soon
Morning Run with Amy and TJ an iHeartRadio podcast. Good
morning everyone, It's Tuesday, October seventh.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. And if you're
not feeling the impact of the shutdown just yet, try
this one on for size. The airport you're flying into

also on the run this morning, the peace talks continue

Gods of War. Also, Trump wants to use the same
law President Kennedy used to enforce school integration, but he
wants to use it for something else. Also, Mark Sanchez
facing more serious charges, and Diddy has now officially asked

(07:29):
nowhere to Diddy and he revealed that, yes, Sean Diddy
Combs has asked him for a pardon. At the end
of his answer about Maxwell, again, he was tired of
kind of dancing around that, and he said, Hey, a
lot of people ask me for pardons. I call him
puff Daddy. He asked me for a pardon, and then
that was all he said.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Well, but he knew that that was going to be
maybe what Yes, that was going to absolutely shift people's
focus immediately. Earlier this summer, a member of Diddy's defense
team did reveal that it was an understanding that they
had reached out and asked for a pardon, but this
was the first time the White House actually confirmed that
that happened. Combs was sentenced to fifty months in prison
(08:10):
last week for his two convictions on charges of transportation
to engage in prostitution. So we have no idea where
Trump stands on a possible Diddy pardon, But again, he
didn't rule it out. He didn't rule a Maxwell pardon out.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
What do you do now that you've said it out loud,
does that mean you have I'm not sure if he
has to respond at all, or you can just ignore
it and go about his day. But if there's a
formal request now then they have to consider it.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Well, you can bet until we know what he decides
to do or not do. Reporters will be asking him
about a daily man.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, all right, you know what we said, talk about
did he possibly getting a pardon? We didn't think much
of it, but now the President has kind of elevated
it and put it out there.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
He offered it up.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Man, man, man, all right. He'll continue on our run
here now with our favorite and our law running segment
here on the Morning Run. It's back this morning. It's
a segment we call Hoo done gone and sue Trump. Now.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Well, today it's the city of Chicago and the state
of Illinois. And you can probably guess why the President
wants to send National Guard troops to patrol the city.
It's a move he's called necessary in particular cities that
just so happened to be Democrat run to cut down
on crime.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, I judged and immediately signed with Illinois officials, but
instead gave the administration until tomorrow night to respond and
in oral arguments on the case are scheduled for Thursday.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
But even if the President doesn't get his way in court,
he has signaled he would be willing to use another
eyebrow raising option. Trump said yesterday he would consider invoking
the Insurrection Acts.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Okay, so what is that. You'll probably be hearing more
about it in recent upcoming days, but it's only been
used thirty times in the United States. It allows for
US troops to be deployed by the president on US
soil in limited situations. Has been used in this country
since nineteen ninety two, and that was to take care
or handle to help the la riots at the time.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
It was also invoked by Presidents Kennedy and Eisenhower to
enforce school integration after the Supreme Court's Brown Versus Board
of Education decision. President Trump said this yesterday about the
Insurrection Act. I do it if it was necessary. So
far it hasn't been necessary. But we have an Insurrection
Act for a reason. If people were being killed and
(10:28):
courts were holding us up, or governors or mayors were
holding us up, sure I do that. We have to
make sure that our cities are safe. If you take
a look at what's been going on in Portland, it's
been going on for a long time, and that's insurrection.
I mean, that's pure insurrection.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
He's stating his case out loud that what he is
seeing is insurrection. Therefore, I can use this Act my goodness.
All right, folks, we want to continue on the run
this morning Wednesday, No, Tuesday, it's Tuesday, damn continue on
their own. Tuesday morning, We're going to head back to Indianapolis.
(11:05):
A lot of news coming out of there about former
NFL quarterback and current Fox Sports analyst Mark Sanchez. He
is now facing a felony battery charge after an altercation
that left him stabbed and in the hospital.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
He was initially facing misdemeanors after police say the thirty
eight year old current Fox Sport analyst was the aggressor
in a fight with a sixty nine year old truck driver.
The fight, police say was over a parking spot. The
driver said Sanchez reeked of alcohol and thought that Sanchez
was trying to kill him, so he defended himself with
(11:39):
his knife.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
You know, I call this a fight, and they are
calling this more so an assault. He went after the
sixty nine year old man was doing his job with
the truck. It was parked some loading dock. Have no
idea why Sanchez was upset, They said they have this
incident on camera from several angles. The driver has filed
a lawsuit against Sanchez and his employer, Fox Sports. Sanchez
(12:01):
is still recovering in the hospital.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Do we know if there were any injuries to the driver.
It's so interesting that okay.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
So yes cut on his face him from the look, but.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Sanchez didn't have a weapon. He just was using his
fists as.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Far as we know. Nothing reported to have had a weapon.
But a knife was invault. And again for them to
say they have several angles. You remember, the first thing
came out like, oh my goodness, the quarterback guy's been stabbed?
Is he Okay? I thought maybe he'd been robbed or gotten.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
It seemed like he was the victim.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And then the next thing, you know, they charged the guy. Wow,
all right, stay with us here on this Tuesday Morning Run.
When we come back, folks, James Bond has had his
gun taken away and fans are pissed. Also, Taylor Swift,
you might have heard, you know, what's going on with her,
but we have one headline about her. Maybe you haven't
(12:48):
heard just yet.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
We continue Tuesday Morning Run with Double seven being disarmed.
Amazon Prime Video took James Bond's guns away and fans
weren't exactly pleased.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Okay, so what is happening here? Prime Video, which now
owns the rights to the Bond franchise and will be
producing the next Bond film. Well, they released updated movie
posters for several old Bond movies, famous and classic Bond movies,
and each of these posters, Bond's gun was removed. We
were talking about the classic poster Sean Connery with his
(13:33):
arms crossed for Doctor No pistol in his hand. That
gun is now gone. Same goals for Daniel Craig, Pierce Broslon,
and on and on. The gun of James Bond was
taken out of his hand for all of these.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Uh no official word from Amazon Prime Video. But those
posters have now been removed, and so what has That's
just it's just upsetting because you're messing with something that's
already been established and in place in a big part
of the franchise.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
The same family has had and been in charge of
the Bond franchise. The first movie outside of that group
to make one is going to be Amazon Prime So
we're all nervous and standing by. They're gonna do the
franchise right. And one of the first signs is that
they took his gun away. People wonder what are they thinking?
Is this are we being sensitive here and too sensitive
(14:21):
and not is it gun imagery? I don't. They haven't
said anything so seemed like a way over correction or
what is the point of.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I'm guessing it's a correction from all of the recent
shootings and the talk about gun violence in America that
they've now decided not to glamorize it or make it
to be something that we would aspire to, you.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Know, we say that, But the first folks to take
it down was the UK version of the Amazon Prime website,
and they're gonna be more pissed. This is their guy.
This is a British dude. Ah, it's a bizarre story,
but we will stand by and we will see final
leg here. Have you heard? Taylor Swift is engaged, has
a new album was number one at the box office
over the weekend. She likes cats and for all intents
and purposes, is the most awesome person ever. And to
(15:09):
add how wonderful this young lady is. We now have
more things to heap praise on her for her new
album is a record center.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
That's right. She beat her own record for first week
album sales in just one day. The Life of a
Showgirl sold two point seven million copies on the first
day of sales. That was on Friday. The only album
in history to sell more copies in the first week
is Adele's twenty five that was in twenty fifteen. She
sold three point three seven eight million, again in the
(15:41):
first week. Taylor's numbers are in the first day. And
who knew that. Taylor's album also set a record for
most vinyl copies sold in a single week one point
two million. You were even asking when we talked about
last week when her album dropped that Target stores opened
at midnight. You're like, what are they buying? Because don't
we just all stream everything now? But yeah, I guess
(16:02):
people actually were waiting to buy vinyl renditions or additions.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
I applaud that. I thought it was just me. I
don't know anybody else with a record player. We play
it every single day here in the house.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yes, every day it's retro, but it's kind of becoming
retro chic now.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I feel like, apparently I had no and who's lining
up at midnight? I assume was a bunch of kids.
Kids are listening to vinyl?
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Well you know what I think that? I mean, record
players are in now?
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Hey man, I applaud that, So that's wonderful to hear.
But before we let you go, folks, something we'd like
for you to consider it is our quote.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Of the day, and TJ picked this one out today.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I'm not sure where I pulled this one out of,
so I will take this one for you and let
you take it in this time Robes quote. What we
become depends not on conditions, but on decisions. Somebody with
your identical conditions made a different decisions and had a
different outcome. I'm not sure where I got it. I think
(16:59):
it was my past. Very usual, yes, out of Atlanta.
But the idea we always try to sometimes blame why
is this happening to me? Why are these conditions? If
I could just get out of these conditions, this is
the reason for where I am. It just gives you
a simpler way to think about it.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yes, not only does it remind you that you actually
you don't have control of outside forces, but you do
have control over how you choose to react to them
and decide to deal with them, basically, and that does
change the direction of your life. It definitely affects your
future every decision you make. So yes, it's more about
empowerment and also recognizing, yes, that you can't just point
(17:37):
the finger at other people other things and say this
is why I'm here, this is why. No, we all
have to look inward and recognize the impact of our choices.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
So I think it came from my pastor, so I
want to partially give him credit Dale Bronna out of Atlanta.
If it wasn't his and he stole it from somebody else's,
apologies to that somebody, but this is where I got it.
So the quote what we become depends not on conditions,
but on decisions. Somebody with your identical conditions made a
different decision and had a different outcome. And with that, folks,
(18:10):
we always appreciate you running with us.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So I'm teaching, and I'm Amy Roeboch. We all talk
to you real soon
