Speaker 1 (00:00):
The biggest stories of the day. There was a hacking.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
You guys, the education platform Canvas was hacked for ransom?

Speaker 1 (00:09):
What do you do in Canvas? We didn't have that. Oh,
we were still. We were still That's where I was,
like shocks.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
We were still using like stones and etching things into
stones when I was in school.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Okaylypics.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Yeah, like we lived like the flintstones. My parents' car
that had the two rocks on the front wheels. You know.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
So I don't know what this is.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Some users at the learning platform Canvas is still reporting
problems today after a massive breach by a hacking group
that caused widespread disruption to schools across the country. Students
try to access the software on Thursday had to deal
with issues trying to take finals. I guess they were
met with a message from the hacking group Shiny Hunters,
claiming responsibility. The group was threatening to leak data held

(00:51):
by the parent company. Anyway, this thing has two hundred
and seventy five million users across nearly eight thousand educational
institutions worldwide, include Princeton and Harvod. The group gave schools
until May twelfth to negotiate before releasing the data. As
of last check, most users reported being able to access
Canvas again. Five US states are monitoring those passengers who

(01:14):
apparently left the cruise ship, the one we've been talking
about with the hantavirus, the hantavirus whatever it's called. So
they left the cruise ship. They live in the US,
and this was all before cases were confirmed on board.
So health officials in twelve countries are monitoring people who
left this haunt to virus stricken cruise ship before the
cases were confirmed, and five of them, I guess live

(01:35):
in Georgia, Texas, Virginia, Arizona, and California. None of these
individuals are showing symptoms, but the World Health Organization confirmed
yesterday that the strain aboard the ship is rare and
it can spread from person to person through close contact,
unlike other hant to virus strains that required direct rodent contact.
So they were saying you couldn't get it from person

(01:57):
to person, but now you can get it from person person.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Here we go. Here we go, you guys, here we
go in a wedding bro here we go. Hontavirus.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Guys, We're gonna have to shut stuff down through the summer.
Remember that, Remember remember that that funny joke they told
for COVID, that funny joke in February when they were like, guys,
this could affect us through the month of June. And
it was February, and we're like, what June. That is
several months away. That is outrageous crazy. This is another

(02:33):
I'm not going on this bird migration cruise anymore. I
was gonna go on it, and now I'm not going
because this is the kind of thing that happens. You
go to bird That's what these people were doing. They
were going to look at birds in Antarctic. Antarctica. It's
always a bird, you know what. Always there's a theme
this week. It's always a bird.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
There's a theme this week.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
The US State Department will begin revoking the US passports
of thousands of parents who owe a significant amount of
unpaid child support.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
That's right, you dead beat parents.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
The Department till the AP on Thursday that the revocations
would begin on Friday, and they focused on those who
owe one hundred thousand dollars or more. This would apply
to about two thousand, seven hundred American passport holders, according
to figures studied by the State Department and the Department
of Health and Human Services the Revocation program. These plans
were first reported, and they might be greatly expanded to

(03:23):
people who owe more than two thousand and five hundred
dollars unpaid child support.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
You don't get to go to turks and keikos. I'm sorry,
you don't get to go anywhere. Apparently you pay your
child right, pay your bills, pay your child support right.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
You dead, be dead. I think you're going to secrets.
You know you're not going mandels, to sandals or that.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
What's that? Heating ism? You're not going.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
You are one hundred grand and child support. You trying
to go to hedonism? No, can't go there. Absolutely not.
The NCAA Jason, this is for your Sports our executive
vice president of Sports Report, and now it's on Thursday.
It has officially decided to expand its basketball tournaments to
seventy six teams.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
That used to be.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Fifty two, which is very easily divisible by two sixty four. Oh,
now it's seventy six games. Each tourney will kick off
with a twelve game opening round. The new format will
provide what they're saying is even more compelling games for
fans and student athletes from that measly fifty two they
had before. It just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it.

(04:23):
How would they do that, Jason? Fifty two divided by two?
I don't do brackets. Yeah, twenty six and a half
or something like that.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Too much math? Or is it twenty six? It did?
It must be? Well what the creative side of my brain?
You're the fast? I don't know. Actually, what did you say?
It's fifty two?

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Is crazy? Twenty six? Twenty six teams? Or it is
visible by two? I guess it would work. A viral
TikTok trend called egg coffee is getting attention this morning
for it's creamy, dessert like taste, but health experts warn
that it could come with risks. The drink, which originated
in Vietnam, is made by whipping raw egg yolks with

(05:01):
sweetened condensed milk and then pouring it over hot coffee.
Experts say the biggest concern is salmonilla, since the raw
egg yolks usually aren't cooked enough to kill bacteria. Symptoms
can include ooh, diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and stomach cramps. Doctors
also warned that the drink can be very high in sugar,
calories and saturated fat because of the condensed milk and
egg yolks. Some experts suggest using pasteurized eggs or alternative

(05:25):
creamy toppings.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
If you want to try this.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Remember when people were putting up maybe still doing it,
like sticks of butter in their coffee. Yeah, you call
bulletproof coffee or something like that. Oh, people do that.
What it was, yeah, protein, and I don't remember there
was some reason why they wanted their hearts to stop.
I don't know, but that entire sticks of butter in coffee.
But then again, people look at the stuff that people
do pour in their coffee. Like here we're saying, no

(05:47):
raw egg yolks. That's gross people. Did you ever watch
people with the creamer thing.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
It's so upset.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Why is the creamer thing always empty? It's always empty
because someone just poured half of it in their drinks.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
You really do, Like I want to tell those people,
I don't think you like coffee, and that's okay, yeah
you know what I mean. You like milk and sugars.
What you like?

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Yeah, okay, no, because then it's like dump all this
and they're dump all that and I'm like, well, wait
a minute, wait, don't.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
You don't need the middle step right right? Pu's water
in there? Easy, Yeah, you'll be fine.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
And a Florida couple was arrested after allegedly burning a
neighbors one thousand, two hundred dollars drone in their backyard
fire pit.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
I think this may have been your dad. I'm in trouble,
by the way, So that's all allegedly.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Okay, So allegedly a drone was falling flying over your
dad's house and he shot it down with a rifle,
allegedly allegedly constantly.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
I got in trouble for that one.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Well, in this case, the drone had crash landed on
their property after losing signal during a late night flight. Again,
why are you flying a drone over my house late
at night? That's what it is, my house. I'm out here,
you know, with Rihanna in my airstream. Do an adult things,
and I don't need you to see it.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Do you own like the airspace around your home?

Speaker 2 (06:57):
No, I guess it's technically not your technique. I can't
talk to it. It's pretty difficult.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
I can't.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's a technically illegal I don't think to at least
fly over it. But what are you doing at night
with your night vision drone over my house? When you
owner tracked it down and knocked on the door, the
homeowner reportedly told him through a ring camera, don't have
a blank drone anymore, or you don't have it anymore.
Police hit a couple admitted to torching it because they
were fed up with drones flying over their house. They

(07:24):
now face criminal misshif charges because the drone is worth
more than a thousand bucks. That's not fair if you
fly over the house, my house and crash it in
my backyard spying on me.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
That sounds like a you problem.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Why do I have to give it back to you
so you can do it some more like you crashed
it in my backyard? Don't have a coke Day, National
Provider Appreciation Day, National Student Nurse Day, and shout out
to Shovihelley National Military Spouse Appreciation Day in all of you.
Fred not knowing that a number ending in two can
be divided by two is pretty bad, is it? Guys?

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Can you do me a favor and not today? Please?
Just y'all on the text line.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Honestly, it is pretty bad. My friend it was the
five that threw me off. Okay, it's early. I shouldn't
have to do math on the fly. I'm glad that
all of you were a lot smarter than I am.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
But then we all sat here and let you do that.
It's really the problem. None of us knew you. I'll
take this one, guys. If I hear math or numbers,
I clock out like I'm not interested.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
And I did correct myself, but I'll take that one on.
You guys don't have to have any responsibility. But yes,
I did watch four other adults stare at me, and
that was the same thing. By the way, the joke
was fifty two that the joke wasn't the dividing part.
