Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, it's Michael. Your morning show can be heard live
on great radio stations across the country like WILM and
w DOV and Wilmington and Dover, Delaware or wgst AM
seven twenty the Voice in Middle Georgia. And we're gonna
need some blankets. News Radio six fifty k e n I, Anchorage, Alaska.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Now enjoy the podcast Good Morning American Friday two three,

(00:26):
starting your morning off right.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding, because.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell Chorge. Yes,
why now you did get them all in? All right
seven minutes after It's gonna be that kind of day, right,
I thought it was gonna be a bad day. Have
six guesses to get wordle. We have a job to do.
I'm ashamed. I should have a press commons Broncos Thursday

(01:01):
night football always a stinker, but this is a stinker
of stinkers. Then I get six in my wordle. But
she just cheered me up. That's all of it. That's
that's like a grand finale of fireworks. See sweet, everybody's
who as we all celebrate the passing of Nancy Pelosi.
Good morning, it's eight minutes after the hour. Thousands of

(01:24):
flights are being canceled across to America starting today. Nancy
Pelosi says bye bye. She will not seek election. In
twenty twenty six, the Senate voted against legislation that would
require the President to get congressional approval for US military
action against Venezuela, though there are no signs that is
actually coming. And the New York Posts remember that issue

(01:46):
we highlighted the morning after Mom Donnie's victory. They said,
on your marks, as in, Carl get set and then
Red Apple. I got a text he somebody I respect
as much as anybody in news, and he's like, you
gotta love the New York Post. They never disappoint. Well,

(02:07):
now it's almost impossible if you have a copy of that,
a physical copy of that. It is selling for big bucks.
But good luck finding one. They're sold out everywhere. All right,
Welcome to the seventh of November. This was my grandmother,
Jenny Camuso Uva Elmer, which, by the way, I always

(02:32):
introduce myself to our market President Howard as a fellow Howard.
I'm probably the only full blooded Italian on planet Earth
who has a middle name, Howard, my grandfather who had
a very questionable not that I believe the mafia exists.

(02:53):
I can't confirm or deny that he was not very
good to my grandmother eventually, and it was very in
that day and age to get a divorce, but she
did to save her life and remarried a handsome German
Postal Service delivery man named Howard Elmer, who happened to
be one of the most influential people of my childhood,

(03:15):
although he died very very early in my childhood at
the age of forty six. So I'm honored to have
his middle name and his wife and my grandmother. My
mother's mother's birthday was today. As Robert De Niro said
in parent I would meet the parents. Miss you, Nannie,
miss you every day. All right, let's get started. On
Friday November, the seventh year of Our Lord twenty twenty

(03:36):
five art Nancy Pelosi's retiring, I thought we would do
something special with talkbacks today. If you can be trusted,
some elderly people are harder to you know. Respect. It
is ingrained in me to respect my elders. It's also
biblical by the way, but Nancy Pelosi is quite the figure.

(04:03):
She leaves at eighty five years old. What is she
most famous for? This is the problem with staying so long.
You can only stay so long, and then it starts
being a bad thing. In the case of Joe Biden,
you stay so long that people remember you as incognitive.

(04:25):
Nancy Pelosi stays so long. I wonder what she will
be remembered for in the end. And I see this
in nursing homes. Every day people change certain things. Dementia
and others kick in and change people, and they behave
in ways they never would have behaved. I wonder, I'm

(04:49):
trying to take the high road and be as nice
as I can. I wonder if the sixty or sixty
five year old Nancy Pelosi would look at the eighty
five year old and regret any of the last twenty years.
I really do. I'll probably, and I think read as

(05:10):
in complete agreement. We would remember Nancy Pelosi as probably
ushering in the most unlegislative hate that we've experienced in
the last ten twelve years. Shut up that has led

(05:30):
to assassinations. When she ripped up the State of the
Union address of President Trump in his first administration. It
was a disrespect to the office of the presidency and
it may have been the first shot of Trump derangement
turning very, very ugly and hateful. And we are not
a better nation for it. We're a far worse nation

(05:52):
for it. It's interesting when Nancy Pelosi announced, and it
was literally right when we got off the air, although
I predicted it was coming after Prop fifty Red's take
is she's leaving because she was going to lose to
a far left socialist candidate. That could be, it doesn't
matter the fact that she's leaving. And my first thought was,

(06:15):
you're no tip O'Neil.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
A.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Tip O'Neil was a Democrat, just like Nancy Pelosi. Tip
O'Neil I would have probably had very little worldview, very
little policy view in common. But to me, I think
it's important that America defines what a good Speaker of
the House is. Does a Speaker of the House have

(06:45):
an iron fist of power partisan power, or does a
Speaker of the House, no matter where they stand and
what party they in, get things done for America. Does
a speaker roll up their house, move and work side
by side with a Senate leader no matter what their

(07:06):
party affiliation, or a president no matter what his party
affiliation is, and get meaningful things done or even small
steps that create a direction that arrive at a destination
of a safer, more prosperous America. These are the kinds

(07:27):
of serious ways of looking at Nancy Pelosi's career. And
it's hard because she stayed so long, and then Nancy
Pelosi probably seventy to eighty five, did a lot of
damage to her legacy. So in the end, all you're

(07:47):
going to hear newspeople say is the first and only
woman to serve as Speaker of the House will not
run for reelection. That's it. We're down to gender Nancy
after either because of your age or out of the
abundance of your heart. How really kind of unstatesmen like

(08:08):
the last ten to fifteen years were, Michael, do you
remember what her most famous quote is? Yes, I do.
We got to pass it to find out what's in it.
We're finding out what's in it right now, aren't we.
A lot of subsidies, a lot of subsidies that they're
closing down the government for a thirty eighth day to

(08:29):
try to get and they were all juiced up by
Biden for COVID anybody suffering from COVID anymore, that we
need to subsidize insurance companies. But yeah, we gotta pass
this bill in order to find out what's in it.
Walk around on the wild wild we're at West ready
shoot aiming. See how far that gets you. How comical

(08:52):
is it that they're asking why did you? Is it possible?
Is it possible you gave me your cough through your
cheap microphone? I think I did? Remember when I I
made fun of the other because kept coughing in my ear,
and now I have it you were mean to him? Well,
it does. It's so loud right into it ears want

(09:12):
to hurt me? Go ahead, what were you saying? Right?
I apologize? No? No, they're asking for subsidies for Obamacare,
and meanwhile Trump is a lowering drug costs dramatically? Right?
Did you can't make you can't make that up? Did
you hear the RFK quote? Listen? This is significant the
American public because of disagreement. Well, lose one hundred and

(09:33):
twenty five million pounds by this time next year. One
hundred and twenty five million pounds in a year. My
one hundred and twenty five million pound life is about
to shrink. But yeah, I mean especially for older people
like on the Medicare reducing the Medicare cost was that
was just mind boggling on that big announcement. So here's

(09:57):
what I wanted to do, and I tried to start
the sh by kind of giving you an example. Usually
I am. You'll probably notice this, although I'm paid to speak,
so I can't always obey it. In real life, if
I have nothing good to say, I say nothing at all.
If I never bring you up, I probably think very
little of you. Because I'm a very gracious person who

(10:20):
studies lives. That's why I watch so many documentaries and
I sift through to find the goodness to praise. But
if I have nothing good to say, I usually say
nothing at all, and I try to always respect my elders.
That makes this a challenge for me. I think anyone
should be done serving their country by eighty five your

(10:42):
past lifespan. Nancy Pelosi barely leaves to enjoy any life
outside of politics. I don't know if that's service, obsession
or dependency, and I don't think she might have probably

(11:03):
survived the next election I'll remember her ripping up a
State of the Union speech and ushering in an era
of really political obsession, hate and division. I'll remember that quote,
we have to pass the bill to find out what's
in it with Obamacare. And I'm going to remember somebody

(11:24):
who did better than the stock market than any HDGE
fund manager. I mean, Scott Jennings cracks this joke on CNN.
This isn't funny. There's something really really wrong in Washington.

(11:45):
These people are supposed to be there serving us, ensuring
our families have a fair shake at security, prosperity, and
the American dream. And I'm not so sure that Scott
Jennings doesn't top me and read in what she'll be

(12:06):
most remembered for.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
I want Trump to put her in charge of the
Social Security Administration.

Speaker 5 (12:10):
We could all retire in six months if we let
this lady manage our portfolios.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
Yeah, that's the power of insight information. But you know so,
the high road for me is the end of her career.
Tarnishing her body of work over a lifetime in the
last ten to twelve years were not pretty. They were destructive,
and not just to her legacy, to our country. We

(12:39):
have a talkback button if you're listening on the iHeartRadio app.
Because in talk radio we think it's a conversation. Number one.
In your morning show, it's necessary to have your voice.
And thirdly, we really want to hear what you think.
Just don't get so ugly. Funny will probably allow just
don't get so ugly. But i'd like to know what

(12:59):
you'll remember Nancy Pelosi for. And I in the highest
road I can take. I probably had as much in
common with Tip O'Neil as I did Nancy Pelosi, but
I have a completely different opinion of both speakers. This
is your morning show with Michael del Chuno. Michael, what
I remember most about Nancy Pelosis was her opening her

(13:22):
really expensive refrigerator and sewing on for really expensive ice cream.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
I remember telling everybody, Oh, there's no problem, everything's okay.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
The best thing I can remember Nancy Pelosi's about. She's relieve.

Speaker 6 (13:39):
Finally, as you said, she probably burned out the last
Morland and has to get home before shads walk.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Don't forget when Trump was addressing the nation, she whipped
up that paper right behind him, a low light move.
I was waiting for the insult there wasn't one. I
think he has a better gut feeling. I did mention
the ripping out of the staian Uni dress all right,
twenty seven minutes after our quick peak at our top

(14:06):
five stories. Well the President, he had his reaction and
remembrance of Nancy Pelosi. Mark Mayfield has more.

Speaker 6 (14:12):
Trump made comments from the White House after being asked
about the former Speaker of the House's decision to not
run for reelection.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
I think she did the country a great service by chader.
I think she was a tremendous liability for the country.

Speaker 6 (14:26):
Trump called Pelosi an evil woman who costs the country
a lot. Trump and Pelosi have been political enemies going
back to Trump's first term. Pelosi made the announcement in
a video. I'm Mark Mayfield.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Thousands of flights are being canceled across to America starting
today as the FAA cuts flights at its forty busiest airports.

Speaker 7 (14:46):
Four percent of flights will be cut today, and that
percentage will increase every day until it hits ten percent
next week. This comes as air traffic controllers continue to
call in sick while not getting paid during the shutdown.
The Secretary of Transportation says he's putting safety first. The
longest federal government shutdown in history continues. It's now in
day thirty eight.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
I'm Tammy Trihio, Chicago, Dallas, Charlotte, Houston, Baltimore, Washington, Salta. Literally,
oh hair, every hub airport. This is going to have
a much biggerffect than four percent of flights. Hey, this
is just in time for the holidays. It's the most
important thing. Don't ever feed him after mid nine minutes.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Wowlin Return.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Gremlin's a Returney to theaters. Warner Brothers Discover Discovery CEO
David Zaslav announced that a third installment of the franchise
will be released in twenty twenty seven. Steven Spielberger return
to executive produce Chris Columbus will serve as director. How
good is This going to be? The original Gremblins was
released in nineteen eighty four and made two hundred and

(15:52):
twelve million dollars worldwide at the box office. This is
Andy Hickson, formerly of Nashville and now living in Detroit, Michigan.
Thanks to iHeartRadio, my morning show is your morning show. Hey,

(16:13):
it's me Michael. You can listen to your morning show
live on the air. Or streaming live on your iHeart
app Monday through Friday from three to six Pacific, five
to eighth Central, and six to nine Eastern on great
radio stations like Talk six fifty KSTE and Sacramento or
one oh four nine The Patriot in Saint Louis and
to Impact Radio one oh five nine and twelve fifty
whd Z in Tampa, Florida. Sure hope you can join

(16:35):
us live and make us a part of your morning routine.
In the meantime, enjoy the podcast. When she moves out,
I'll be like one box from the office in three
bras trucks. Finally watch. We are getting reaction and email
as well. Grant writes, Nancy's legacy is her unprecedented ability
to pick winners in the stock market and improve her
own lot by being in a position of power while

(16:57):
claiming to be helping the community and serving the people.
Brian writes, Michael, when the truth sees the light on
Jay six, Oh we left out Jay six. When she
outplays Trump, don't forget. The Sergeant of Arms is over
the Capitol Police. The sergeant of arms reports to the speaker.

(17:22):
Sergeant of Arms comes to Speaker. Pelosi just like Secret
Service and other intelligence came to the President and said
there's some bad players on January sixth, we're going to
need more security, and she purposely doesn't provide it, and
then Trump walks right into the trap and they lay
insurrection on Trump when it was all the play of

(17:43):
Nancy Pelosi. That's the same woman that ripped the State
of the Union addressed too and tremendous disrespect. But all
of her disrespect and everything she did for power versus
the good of the country wasn't just hurting Trump. It
was hurting the country, that's I say. And the bigger picture,

(18:03):
she will be known for ushering in this new level
of partisan hatred that has ripped America in half, just
as she ripped a State of the Union address in
half and doing better on the stock market and the
Obamacare quote, we got to pass to see what's in it.

(18:25):
And I think Red nailed it earlier when he said
and lost control of the squad. And now they're about
to lose control of the party to a socialist Islamist
sect of the party. And they only got the footing
to do that because of her failures. You stick around

(18:46):
too long, I wonder I'll leave you with this what
a sixty five year old Nancy Pelosi would say to
an eighty five year old Nancy Pelosi. And I think
it's leave fifteen years earlier. I love visiting. I just
waking up. By the way, the lou video surveillance password
has been revealed. If you're wondering how did somebody steal

(19:07):
the Crown jewels at one hundred and two million dollars heist,
I'm starting to see how it's possible. The password for
the video surveillance at the Louver was louver. Which airports
are going to be losing flights today, just every imaginable
Maine central hub from Salt Lake City to Minneapolis to Chicago,

(19:28):
O'Hare Midway to Dallas to Houston to Charlotte to Baltimore, Washington, Dulles. Oh,
the disruption that is coming as thousands of flights are
being canceled across America. We love to talk to futurist
Kevin Surreali all the time, and this came up. Kevin's
joining us now, Kevin, this came up in our last
conversation because somehow cloning came up, and I just valitionally

(19:52):
brought up how if I ever cloned anything, I would
have cloned my bulldog Joey. But what I said to
you was I wouldn't do it because it would look
just like him, but not be him, and that would
be more painful. One if Tom Brady's feeling the same way.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
Tom Brady feels the exact same way, and he's actually
investing in colossal biosciences. So he cloned his dog. His pet, Lua,
which is is a clone pitbull mix, died in twenty
twenty three, and he loved his dog so much, just
like you, that he decided he wanted to actually clone it.

(20:28):
Maybe because he shared this dog with his ex wife, Giselle,
and I'll leave that to the gossip columnist, but he
he really wanted another dog. But what's interesting is he's
not the first celebrity to do this. Paris Hilton has
done this, and there's a whole cottage industry and laws
in our country support it that allow for this to happen.

(20:49):
And it's also a big trend in what's it called
in Europe as well. But it begs the question about
not just cloning pets, but cloning other animals. There's a
conversation that's taking place in the science community about ploning
Willie mammons and bringing them back to life, and it's
starting to sound a lot more and more like Jurassic Parks.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
Well, it's funny you say that, Kevin, because you know
I'll never go in. The nine to eleven commission came
out failure of imagination? Are you kidding me? The CIA,
I mean they couldn't give the exact time, the exact place,
but the administration, the FBI, everybody had ample warning that
a terror attack was coming and it was likely al
Qaeda and Usama bin Laden. But in the end they

(21:30):
go failure of imagination. You know who would have fought
box cutters and planes? Are you kidding me? The movie
had come out two years earlier, where what was the
one with Kurt Russell and they take the plane. They're
gonna put fire into the belly executive decision, fire into
the heart of the infidel. I mean, there's always like
a movie that happens before something you watch. We'll do

(21:54):
Jurassic Park. We're alread gonna eating by dinosaurs because somebody
it's doing what Tom Brady did.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
That's a great point, and I think that's a huge
part of why I started mcf dot TV. In the
Hello Future show is that imagination and imagining the future
and the conversation that we're having. So you know, there
is definitely an ethical conversation that we should be having
when it talks about cloning of anything. But when you
look at it from a business perspective and a capitalistic perspective,
think of the potential for farming if cloning as possible,

(22:23):
and agriculture if cloning as possible. Think of the ability
for bad actors like the Chinese Communist Party. You know,
everyone's doing their DNA tests to see their ancestors, but
where is that information really going. If it's going to
China or Russia or Iran, for example, that is very bad.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
I'm gonna I can. I can see myself at this
take place. Oh, this is tough. This tastes just like
last week's take Yeah, same go. Kevin Surreally hosts Hell Future.
It's a podcast on the iHeart podcast. Go to this
section and search at Hello Future. I love what you
had said about this. It really raises questions about love, grief, yep,

(23:04):
and second chances. And I don't think this helps grief.
I think it extends it. It doesn't give us second chance.
It will just look the same but not be the same.
Take it from somebody who's identical twin daughters at twenty one.
They couldn't be more different in every way. And I
don't know that that's love. But here's the tricky path.
You start with this and if that becomes normal, Oh

(23:26):
I lost my son, let me clone them. You know,
where does this go? And if we don't get the
earth ethical questions right, where does it go?

Speaker 3 (23:36):
And specifically how are we regulating it? Hardly am I
an advocate for needless regulation, but these are the types
of questions when it comes to breeding other animals. Other
countries are going to be looking at this. If you
look at China, for example, what are they going to
be breeding and what type of you know, mixed and match.

(23:57):
Pets of the future could take hold of this in
many ways. So I think it's a true, a very
fair question, and specifically in the pet industry a lot
of times that is a model for other technology. If
anyone's a dog owner out there, if you've chipped your
dog so that if it runs away, you're able to
access it through the chip, who is to say that

(24:18):
that couldn't.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
Be done on humans, you know.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
And and again I'm not advocating that to be done
on humans.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
The mark of the beast it's called savin, but it's true. No, yeah,
and I wanted to I wanted to get to robots
real quick. And I know we only have how much
to love that? Do you have any time? You have
enough time?

Speaker 6 (24:36):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (24:36):
Yeah, for you. I have all the time in the world.
I love the show, all right.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
So I think, you know, we talk about movies Executive
Decision and you know other movies that the precede tragedies
that then actually happened. In all of the early futuristic movies,
in addition to spaceships and aliens, there was always the
presence of robots. So you have to ask yourself, well,
is that just what we are always envisions? So we

(25:01):
made it so? Or you know, did they just happened?
Which came first? The chicken or the egg? But robots
are here, and they're about twenty grand cheaper than a car.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
For sure. This is awesome. So there's this company called
Neo And I actually aggregated this story from the Wall
Street Journal, So I want to give credit to the
journal because this is an awesome story that they had
where essentially, for twenty thousand bucks, you can get a
five foot six humanoid robot in your house. It does

(25:32):
you know, it charges, it will go back to my
charging station. It'll do your laundry, it'll put your groceries away,
it'll water your plants, it'll clean all of that for
twenty grand. But here's what's really interesting. You could also
get it for about six hundred bucks a month and
send it back. Because here's here's where the science of
it really matters. Everything runs on a pattern. So I

(25:52):
have a smart device in my home that's the alarm
clock goes off every morning, it plays the news report
and the weather and the same music. And then my
roots is I get out of bed, make my coffee,
feed my dog. Theoretically, all of that is not on
a smart device from in the sense of the alarm clock.
For a robot, you'll have an in the future, you'll
have an app on your phone. You'll put the pattern

(26:13):
and the routine that you want for the robot in
your phone. So water the plants at this time, cook
dinner at this time, to put the groceries away here,
et cetera. But if they can't perform the data. It's
incredibly slow. I'll be honest. It takes a couple of
minutes to fold one shirt. But if they can't perform
the algorithm or the data, there's going to be a

(26:33):
lad on the West Coast is where they're based, and
humans will have VR goggles and they will access your
robot from the laboratory. The human will through VR virtual
reality and perform the function. They're trying to get as
much data as they can from the patterns of how
people are using humanoid robots to make them faster in

(26:54):
the future.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Okay, so there's two things. One that's one in taller
than mine my wife. But you said twenty thousand dollars
or send it back and for six hundred dollars a
month you lost me on that. How does that work?

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, So essentially it's like renting a device or leasing
a car. You would lease a humanoid robot because the
company wants to see in real time how middle class
Americans or upper class Americans are using this thing so
that they can create better models for it in the
future and train the data. Because all AI is it's
just data and algorithms, so they want the best use

(27:32):
cases for it to design it in the future.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
I want one really bad. But yeah, so, I mean
it can clean bathrooms, it can vacuum, they can do dishes,
they can put groceries.

Speaker 3 (27:42):
Quickly on this point. Quickly on this point, because when
I was talking to Technologist this week for the show,
a lot of people are concerned about job losses and
industry recreation as a result of technology and AI. But
think about what I just said. There's a human putting
on VR goggles, I know, and accessing your home and cleaning.
So theoretically, for the cleaning and the janitorial industry, take

(28:04):
me actually able to be a lot more effective if
they could just clean a lot more houses, if they
didn't have to travel from house to house or place
to place, and they could do it, you know, from
an office cleaning robot.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
It would also be a great way to uh to
scout out your house for a robbery as well. But
we can make sure our password isn't louve all right.
If you want to learn more about cloning animals or
getting a robot in your home, say Hello to the future.
It's here, Hello Future the podcast by Kevin Sirelli. You'll
find it on your iHeartRadio app Kevin. As always, you
make Friday special. God bless you, my friend.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
Thank you. I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
It's your morning show with Michael del Choano. Your morning
show remembers Nancy Pelosi.

Speaker 5 (28:48):
Corning Michael, Jeffrey and Red as a resident of California.
My whole life, I've watched all of Nancy Pelosi's career,
and I don't give her much credit for much. I
think she's been corrupted most for life, but especially at
the end with all the insider trading. Unfortunately for her,
she's gonna die a lonely woman, and she won't take
a dime of that wealth with her, and she'll have

(29:10):
to live with all her actions, especially the last decade
or two.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
My response to Nancy Pelosi retiring good writtence. Didn't Pelosi
also go and have her favorite hairdresser open up while
she got her hair done? Yes, all the rest of
the country was closed down due to COVID.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
Not a fan, But what do you think Martha Stewart's thinking, Bob,
this is it?

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Out of all of them, the hair and the ice cream?
I did forget those doing all right? You can remember
Nancy yourself using her talk back button on the iHeartRadio AB.
President Trump is announcing sweeping cost cuts on all obesity drugs.
Sara Le Kessler reports.

Speaker 8 (29:55):
The White House says Eli Lilly, which makes zep bound,
and Novo Nordisk, which meant manufactures with GOVY, will lower
the prices of those injectable weight loss drugs to as
little as three hundred and fifty dollars a month for
starter doses. List prices now exceed one thousand dollars. Trump
also says Medicare will start covering the drugs. In exchange,
The White House has agreed to give the pharma companies

(30:17):
priority two month review for certain drugs and to break
on tariffs. All this starting in January when Trump RX,
the administration's direct to consumer website launches.

Speaker 7 (30:28):
I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
It's day thirty eight of the longest government shut down
in American history, and starting today, thousands of flights are
being canceled as the FAA makes cuts at forty of
the busiest airports in our nation.

Speaker 7 (30:40):
It comes as air traffic controllers and TSA agents continue
to work while not getting paid. The Secretary of Transportation
says the flight reductions are in line with putting safety first.
Also in focus on day thirty eight food assistants, A
federal judge in Rhode Island ordered the Trump administration to
pay full Novembers Now benefits by today, saying people have
gone without for too long. The Trump administration has given

(31:01):
notice that it will appeal. I'm Tammy Tricheo.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
The Senate has voted against legislation that would require President
Trump to consider congressional approval for US military action against Venezuela.

Speaker 4 (31:12):
The bipartisan resolution failed forty nine to fifty one, with
Republicans Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Kentucky's Rand Paul joining
forty seven Democrats who voted for the measure. The vote
follows more than a dozen strikes against alleged drug trafficking
boats that have killed at least sixty six people. Last month,
Trump rejected the idea of getting congressional approval, saying quote,

(31:33):
We're just going to kill people that are bringing drugs
into our country.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
End quote. I'm Jim Roop. Jeremy will begin to say
goodbye to fans next year. The iconic rock band announced
they will kick off the first leg of the Final
Frontier tour in February. The first show is set to

(31:57):
take place on February the twenty eighth, and Hershey Pa
will play sixty dates in North America, including stops in Nolins, Austin, Washington,
DC before wrapping up on July second, and Laredo, Laredo, Texas.
More cities could be added later. Ticket pre sales start
on Tuesday. Well, just to prove to you, there's a
day for everything, right, today is a national day. We

(32:22):
go very very very old school.

Speaker 9 (32:25):
It's National Fountain Pen Day. A chance for you to
be fancy and your letter writing. You still do that right.
We've been using the fountain pen since three thousand BC,
and in that time they still haven't figured out how
to prevent smudging or ink weell spills.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
But they are regal.

Speaker 9 (32:39):
And Pilot Pen says about one hundred million are sold
every year. A fun fact. They are the original pen.
I can write upside down. I'm pre tennis.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
I out of everything I wish I could do, and
I doubt I'll ever get to it. I would like
to go see the Northern Lights. I hear it's in
the movie Long Shot with Charlie's thereon. They feature the
Northern Lights in one of the scenes, and it's just
it's a breathtaking thing to experience. If you can get

(33:11):
I don't know, Sweden, Norway, wherever you have to be,
that may change. The Northern Lights might be visible overnight
in as many twenty two states in America. Mark Mayfield
has that story.

Speaker 6 (33:28):
It's all thanks to an arriving geomagnetic storm which has
been caused by a powerful solar flare. That means millions
stand a good chance of catching a glimpse of the
Aurora borealis, or Northern Lights. The light show is always unpredictable,
but a cloud free sky and minimal light pollution can
increase the odds of seeing them before or even sometimes
after sunrise.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
I'm Mark Mayfield. We're all in this together. This is
