Speaker 1 (00:25):
Frid's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
All right, Jason, you you were in La for jingle Ball.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Yes, and he didn't leave us an he picks all.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Right, So Bellafield in Oh okay, good, And we were
just curious to see she's a real fan so well,
and she really knows sports, and so we were just wondering,
like does somebody well you do too, of course, but yeah,
watch all the time, but just somebody who really really
really knows sports like you, compared to someone who just sort.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Of knows sports like she does. Yeah, you know what
I mean, like just a novice compared to an expert.
Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
And so what is the final So she, as she writes,
I flopped.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
She got seven, correctly out of fourteen games.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That's not as Jason, you do better? Yeah, what do
you mean? One tonight? So she could get just a
little over.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Fifty percent, that's the same as you, right, Okay, then
I'm not letting her say nothing to me ever again
about how I don't know you're talking about. And that
was the experiment. Was just someone who knows a lot
about sports.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
There were a lot of, I mean wild things happening, but.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Lions, Titans, Jaggs, Bill's, Seahawks, Broncos, Packers, Steelers, Vikings, Dolphins, Saints, Rams,
and Texans all one. And the Texans have been eliminated
from the playoffs Chiefs by oh, excuse me, the Chiefs
by the Texans. So they are not going to be
in the playoffs. Now, Oh the Chiefs aren't.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
They are out of the Yeah, they've been not a
good season for them. I mean, oh totally. Yeah. She
won your fun money though, didn't she.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I mean, I bet on the parsley and got zero
dollars because the whole thing didn't hit. But so the
parsley was Saners will have two passing touchdowns. He actually
had three. Yeah, And then Baker Mayfield will throw four
more than two hundred and seventy five yards. No, he
flopped so bad, is what she wrote. And then Caleb
Williams will have a rushing touchdown.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Note, and my buddy Gary the news anchor, he apparently
was listening and was inspired by the Chador leg of
the of the Parlays. So he went all in on
Shador and won eighteen hundred bucks, right damn it.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
So there's that.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
So so she won my friends some money, I guess
because he was driving and he was like, ah, you know,
what's a bo okay and bet on them? So wow,
we got that. It's gonna be cold. I feel like
that's the weather. There you go, there's the weather. I
do weather report for you when I can, and there
it is. More Arctic air is headed in the Midwest
and eastern US. Temperatures could be below zero this morning
in parts of the Midwest well dropping into the teens
(02:50):
and others. That's thanks to multiple clipper systems MARCHO whatever
that is marching across the area and reinforcing cold temperatures.
Light snow is possible and forecast is the heavier snowe
is possible, but unlikely. The Northeast may see some temperature
records break during the cold snap. I mentioned that the
Texans have knocked the Chiefs out of the playoffs for
(03:10):
the first time in a number of years, so we
will not have that. There will be no Taylor Swift playoffs,
which means I guess, and is he done? By the way,
is he going to retire? Travis is going to retire.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
He probably should soon. Do you think he was not
a good season for him?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I don't know why these guys don't go out on top,
like he knows what he wants to do next.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
I think he was maybe hoping he could, right because
like they didn't win. The Eagles won last year, so
maybe if they were good this year then he had
another chance at it.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
But now I think he can comfortably say, yeah, I
think it's good. We're good, We're all set.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Do you remember this whole bar Restuck cup thing at
Starbucks a few weeks ago where people were driving all
over God's Green Earth?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
You were part of this.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
I was like three of them and they were sold out,
but apparently the employees were behind it. Yeah, they were
buying them for themselves. Allegedly like selling them on chryslist
or something. Probably you have to meet someone in a
Duncan parking lot.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I feel like Aldi was so funny about those I
went to al d version.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I have to see that one. Yeah, they were shading them, but.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
They're giving app users a chance at winning a Barista cup.
So Barista gate is about to ramp up again. After
being slammed over of hyping the glass cup and then
many customers weren't able to get it since only one
or two was shipped to most stories, the coffee company
is trying again. They tease on socials, your chance is
in the Starbucks app starting today. Taking note of the
(04:34):
word chance, it turns out that the Barista cup will
be part I feel stupid saying this. Even the Barrista
cup will be part of the Starbucks twenty twenty five
Mary Thorne, what is it with these people?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Is double down working at Starbucks now?
Speaker 2 (04:48):
With his alliterations and silly words, Mary thought, No, wonder
we don't hear from the guy Mary Thon Giveaway Mary Thorn.
Rewards will decide who gets one, and the cups are
offered as instant win prizes, not direct sales to get
your chance at one make a qualifying Starbucks purchase like
a latte that earns you entries or instant chances, only
(05:09):
seventeen thousand will be available. Why wouldn't I mean, I
know why they're doing this, but like I guess if
people wanted them, then why wouldn't you just send I
don't know, like fifty to each store and then tell
people they're there, and then you got to go get
and then while you're in there. But I guess they
want you to buy something, and the people were driving
you weren't buying anything when you'd go in these stores, right,
you would just go in and and leave when they
didn't have it exactly.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I heard there was like fights and lines and everything.
I don't like, how to do that?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Now?
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Do that?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:35):
People were crazy about this. Arrista Koppenham. Wallet Hub has.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Tracked down the most sinful cities in the US, examining
one hundred and eighty one of the nation's largest cities
to find out where the darkest corners of America are.
The researchers looked at data that corresponded to the seven
deadly sins, anger, violent crimes, hate groups, and the like jealousy, theft,
and fraud, excess is fast food restaurants per capita, drug
and alcohol use, greed, casinos versus chair donations lost, teen
(06:02):
perth rates, adult entertainment venues, vanity tanning salons and searches
online for plastic surgery, and laziness, time spent watching TV,
and high school dropout rates. This is actually very sad.
Las Vegas is number one. I think that's kind of
cheating though, because they have to have the most casinos
per cabina, right, I mean, that's where all most of
the casinos are. Houston, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Denver, Miami, Dallas, Phoenix,
(06:27):
and New Orleans. The most sinful cities in case you're wondering,
the least sinful cities Boise, Laredo, Texas, Bridgeport, Connecticut, Port
Saint Lucy, Florida shout out. They can hear us Portland, Maine, Freemont, California,
West Valley City, Utah, Pearl City, Hawaii, and Columbia, Maryland.
In case you want, and I know, Jason, you're a
(06:49):
very very pure Chase man, so you may not want
to go to the sinfuls places you might want to
only you probably can only do jingle ball Port Saint Lucie,
Florida from now. You're not gonna be able to do
jingle ball Dallas or Atlanta or Philadelphia or Los Angeles anymore. Ooh,
it's gonna be jingle ball porn Saint Lucy, which is amazing.
(07:10):
It's a wonderful place line yea tennis. I'm actually surprised
we don't hear more about this, and maybe it happens
all the time, we just don't hear about it. But
a Tennessee woman was arrested after her young children, ages
two and four, eight some of her THHC gummies. Police
were called to the house because the children had overdosed,
and that's in quotation marks. The woman told them that
her kids had found the gummies in the bathroom and
(07:31):
ate several of them. The children were taken to the hospital.
They're expected to be fine. The mother was charged with
child abuse and endangerment. I'm honestly surprised this doesn't happen
more innocently all the time, because these gummies look like
gummy candy in many cases, and sometimes they even in
the packaging mimic a product that you that you might
buy and actual candy. You gotta keep that, right, You
(07:51):
got to obviously you got to keep them in places
where your kids can't find it. But I can see
why if they saw if a kids saw them, they
would think it was candy. They would eat them. But
they're gonna be Okay. I want you to think about
the person that that that had to lose in this thing.
But a three year old chess player three years old
from India has become the youngest in history to receive
an official ranking from the International Chess Foundation called FIED.
(08:15):
To receive a ranking, you have to win a match
against another fight ranked player. So you, a three year old,
beat someone else in chess. Can you imagine if you're
the sanctioned player, you're the you're the you know, rated
player that got beaten by a three year old player
must win a match against one fed ranked player to
(08:36):
score points against at least five rated opponents. Per the
Guardian of New York Times, this this kid who lives
in India, he defeated five of eight rated opponents to
receive his rating at the age of three. So he
beat five people. You got beaten by, like literally by
a three year old chess like he's obviously brilliant. But like,
(08:56):
my god, and I told you about this guy last week,
and I think I told you what might happen, but
it's official now, ed Bambs I believe is that you
say his name will soon ring up his last can
of corn. The eighty eight year old Michigan grocery worker
was handed an oversized check for one point seven million
dollars on Friday, which was a result of a remarkable
(09:17):
fundraising campaign by a young Australian with an extraordinary following
on social media. He said no, he didn't want it
at first, wiping tears and sniffles, and then said thank you,
Oh my god. This guy's twenty two years old. His
name is Sam. I believe he's a Widenhffer. He's using
his powerful platforms to spread kindness and money. And he
(09:38):
gave this guy he went into the grocery store. This
man was a Vietnam veteran. I believe he'd lost his
wife seven or eight years ago, and he was an
auto worker as well, and he'd lost his pension back
in the day when when one of the auto companies
closed and the factory closed, and so he was working
at eighty eight years old in this grocery store, ringing
people up and this. I don't know if they heard
about him or what, but they went in there. They
(09:59):
gave him four hundred bucks I think it was. And
he was such a sweet man, talked about going to
visit his wife's grave every day for the last seven
or eight years since she had passed. And so the
story went viral and they started this gofund me. He
wasn't he couldn't afford to retire, and now he's eighty
eight with one point seven million dollars thanks to everybody,
and he can now retire comfortably.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
And I think it's an amazing story.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
It's National Crossword Solvers Day and National Brownie Day today
as well,
This is the pread show.
