Bread's Show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
So a car drove onto the sidewalk outside the Vermont
Music Venue in East Hollywood on Saturday, hit about thirty
people who were waiting to enter. The incident happened about
two am after somebody was removed from a nearby business.
The driver was a twenty nine year old man drove
into the crowd after crashing into I guess into a vehicle.

(01:05):
Then bystanders pulled him out of the car and beat
the guy down. An unknown man then shot the guy
had wounded him. He was taken to the hospital, later
booked on suspicion of assault with the deadly weapon, with
the possible attempted murder charges being looked at. At least
one woman in her twenties was in critical condition and
twenty four people were taken to hospitals.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
No one but the driver of the vehicle was shot.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
If you tried to fly Alaska Airlines last night, I
know you guys are always trying to go to Seattle.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
All of you constantly wait Alaska Airlines.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Alaska Airlines.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Oh I think I'm flying them soon.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Okay, Well listen it. Well that was last night.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
I know, but I'm scared.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
It was last night, So you didn't do as soon
as in last night, and you should be okay. On Sunday,
they requested a groundstop for its entire fleet of planes.
According to the FAA, the fifth largest airline in the US,
which has of April operated two hundred and thirty eight planes,
plus another forty five under the Horizon air brand, requested
the stop for its ear aircraft as well as those

(02:01):
belonging to its subsidiary. According to The New York Times,
the problem was with the airline's IT systems. We requested
a temporary system wide groundstop for Alaskan Horizon flights until
the issue is resolved. There will be residual impacts to
our operating or operation throughout the evening. It lasted three hours.
They did open it up again, so they're flying again. Okay, Yeah, but.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
It was with the IT system.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Yeah, but it we were good to go. It was
the computers.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
The planes are flying just fine, and computers weren't working,
so they couldn't do it.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
That's a big part.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
So I'm going to be up there when my GPS
open trying to figure out where we need to get
to make a right.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
That's like, you know, I appreciate like transparency, and I'm
a pilot, so I guess I understand a little bit more.
But like I appreciate when they get on the thing
and they're like, hey, this is what's going on, We're
trying to fix it whatever, or when they're trying to
explain to you in the air why you know, they
can't land or whatever. But sometimes I think it's a
little too much information for people.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
I agree.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
You know, it's like like can when you were trying
to go to Brazilia or Ago and GPS doesn't work.
We're trying to fix the GP. When we get it fixed,
we'll get going. Yeah, that's important. I mean, it's the
middle of the night, and unless you're using some kind
of a good sexton or something, I don't know what you're.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Doing up there, but like, we need that.

Speaker 5 (03:10):
So I already had some wine and took my sleeping pills,
so I was like, you guys, use my ways.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
We don't need that.

Speaker 5 (03:17):
Just head towards Brazil and we'll figure it.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Out and see.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
I also know that you know, these these airplanes these
stairs are just big computers. But I'm the door who
listens to there's an app you can listen to air
traffic control on your phone, and you kind of have
to know a little bit about what you're listening to
because you have to know what to select. But so
I'm in Brazil, We're getting ready to take off. It's
like ten o'clock at night. I'm not gonna say the
airline or the kind of plane. But I'm listening to
ATC on my phone on the internet because i'm and

(03:41):
it's actually amazing. Because all pilots are supposed to speak English.
The official KO language is English, but in certain like
for example, in Brazil, they would speak Portuguese air traffic
control to the local carriers, like so like a zul
Airlines would speak Portuguese to them and then go right
back to English for like the dummies from you know, America.
You know this. It was amazing how the person could

(04:02):
go back and forth that fast between both languages and
directing all this traffic. So they're like, okay, you know whatever,
flight one two three, Uh, you're clear for takeoff, and
they're like, all right, cliff, takeoff one two three, and
then this is our plane. And then the guy comes
and goes up, now hold on, we get an issue.
We need a minute, and we slam on the brakes
and I'm like that's not good, and then two seconds
later he goes, no, never mind, we're good. We're gonna

(04:22):
go what hold on back, now, hold on, let's not
be let's not be hazy here. I know we all
want to go home, but like, what just happened but
now it's not happening anymore.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
All right, let's make double check please right right, like.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
We we went from we cannot leave the ground three
seconds later not not, We're good and then it's all good.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
I mean that though, but you don't then ended up on.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
A plane like everybody, let me tell you what's going on.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
You see, we made it, we made it. But like
my friends like, why do you listen to that? Like
you know better? Like who knows? It could have been anything?
Obviously it was fine.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
I'm like, but yeah, I didn't need it, especially with
the news these days of you know, things that working
and whatever. It's like, I just thought it was it
was a little quick. I thought, how can we pull
over and we just check it out and putting flashers on.
Let's just run through it. Let's let's shut it down
and start it up again. Let's blow in it, you

(05:18):
know what I mean? Like I don't know anyway, everything
worked out fine, But.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
They're like, why is she sitting there in her life jacket?

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Like water?

Speaker 5 (05:27):
Right?

Speaker 3 (05:27):
My app told me is going down water.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
It's gonna be fine.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
But I mean everything's controlled by you know, dispatched and
controlled and everything the computers. So the computer's break right,
you can't you can't do anything, guys. The Coldplay cuddler
man the Astronomer CEO Andy Byron has resigned from his position.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Man and by resigned.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
That is, you're fired, but will because you're having the
worst week ever. Then we'll go ahead. Let you say
you resigned. And he probably made out too. They probably
paid the guy a lot to go away. I'd bad,
Like that's just how these things work. You know, you're
smart and rich. You screw up, so we'll just make
you richer to go away because we don't want to
deal with it. The married tech CEO who was caught

(06:11):
on the kisscam at the Coldplay concert in Boston last
week embracing his companies human resources chief, has resigned. He
exits his position after being put on administrative leave. As
they looked into the incident, they said no other employees
were president of the concert. Now that's another controversial thing here,
because there was a woman a screen left in the

(06:32):
kisscam who looks a lot like somebody who works there,
and everybody was saying that like this was a subordinate
and so there was another employee that had to witness
all this and the thing. Now they're saying that wasn't
that wasn't anyone who works there, But that person very
clearly knew what was going on, because the look on
that person's face was like, Oh my god, I can't
believe this is happening.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yep, So whoever that is is involved somehow.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
But Astronomer said that they are now looking for their
next CEO and someone else is taking over in the interim.
The guy went viral last week for being caught on
a kiss cam and a Cold Play concert with his
arms wrapped around a female coworker. After realizing they were
on the camera, the woman covered her face and then
he ducked out of sight. I guess she gets to
keep her job though as of right now, HR's got

(07:18):
a gig and the CEO man is gone.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
So interesting and over.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
The weekend, everywhere I went it was people talking about this,
and we were saying this too on Friday. If they
had just played it off, if they had just acted normal,
there's a chance that they would have gotten away with it.
It would have been ten seconds on the screen. People
could have been like, Hey, is that Andy, and nah,
it couldn't be, you know, and then whatever. But the
whole thing, the whole fiasco, the reaction. That's why everyone's

(07:45):
talking about it, because it's like, immediately you knew something
was happening there that wasn't supposed to be happening.

Speaker 5 (07:50):
I would have slowly dropped my hands if I were
him and just smiled, Hey, look.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
At these two.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yeah, I don't get it. Yeah, I'm really not sure
what you do. And then they were asking the person
who initially posted it if they feel bad. I guess
I don't know TMZ or somebody. I didn't see this.
A friend of mine was telling me that whoever posted
it to Instagram, like, do you feel bad about this?
And I believe the quote was play stupid games, win
stupid prizes. Yes, it's not anyone's fault for exposing that.

(08:17):
Don't be that emboldened. You know, they were a full
on act, like a fall couple with PDA and the
whole thing in public. You're asking for it now. Psychology
Today has issued a little bit of a little piece
on why people do this, Why people cheat in public
so publicly. The key reasons, according to Psychology Today, emotional

(08:42):
neglect at home, craving excitement or novelty, the thrill of
getting caught, or a subconscious cry for change. Now the
other three maybe, but emotional neglect at home does not
excuse cheating. I just if that's the case, didn't break
up with them. And I know it's easy for me
to say because I'm you know, I'm not. I'm not

(09:02):
being emotionally neglected at home because no one's at home
but I but you so, and that way, I guess
I am. But there's no one to cheat on. Well,
what I'm saying is like, you don't get to cheat,
and this guy can't issue a statement and go, yeah,
but I'm really unhappy my wife does. She doesn't love me,
she doesn't like, you know, I can make love to
me or whatever. It's like, Well, that may be, but

(09:22):
that doesn't excuse if she doesn't know what you're doing,
that doesn't excuse the betrayal, like work on the issue
or get a divorce.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
You is my thing? And in public stupid, well, I
mean they were awfully comfortable.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
And the other thing was every time I see something
like this, I think was there some kind of an arrangement,
you know, like maybe the wife knew. Well, I'm guessing
the wife didn't know. If this guy's doesn't have a job. Well,
that's maybe she did know. He shouldn't. Of all the
people to pick to have a relationship with extramaritially, if
that's a word, it would not be the director of HR.

(09:57):
That's why he doesn't have a job. But I feel
like if she he knew, if they had some kind
of arrangement, then we would know that by.

Speaker 4 (10:03):
Now he wouldn't have dropped to the floor like that
current right exactly a stop drop and roll, or he saw.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
His career flash before his eyes.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
One or the other, his life I think flash before
his eyes.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Because again, you know, in twenty twenty five, when I
see somebody out with somebody else and I've seen it before,
I try and avoid the situation. I don't say anything
anybody for the most part, because I don't know what
people's deals are anymore. I know a lot of people,
and when I say a lot, I mean a lot.
I know a lot of people who are in relationships
and they have arrangements and everyone's on the up and
up about it, but at least inside the relationship. But

(10:36):
like other people from the outside wouldn't necessarily know. So
I don't want to be the one right to see
something I wasn't supposed to see or what was supposed
to see. Like, do you feel an obligation if you
saw someone that you know in this in this fashion,
Maybe not on the big screen, but you saw someone
at this concert, you know, all up on somebody, but
you also know that they're married or in a relationship.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Do you feel that it's your need to like call
that out or do you keep to yourself?

Speaker 3 (10:59):
Oh, I'm gonna, but you have to do it in
a certain way.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
I'm not just going to tell you that I saw
your spouse cheating, and I have to give you proof,
So I'm going to send you a video.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Or a photo of what I saw. Hmm, Okay, yeah,
I guess I don't know anymore. I don't know that
I would say anything to anybody. I feel like I
just am staying out of it.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, because I don't know what I don't know. I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
You know, maybe the deal isn't I don't want to
divorce you or you know, we're friends, we get along,
we're cool with each other, but like I don't really
want to get with you anymore. So if you want
to go I know of more than one situation like this,
where it's like, look, we have a life together. It
would be too messy to divide it. I don't dislike you,
I don't not love you. I just don't want to

(11:42):
do that with you anymore. So go do what you
gotta do. Just don't anybody find out Will and Jada
and so. Then who am I? Well, right, we know
some celebrity examples like this too. So then if I'm
the one going here so so and so about with
so and so? I mean maybe I'm not supposed.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
To be involved in that, but if they have an arrangement,
they'll be like, we have an arrangement or I already know.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
All good, But I don't think people necessarily want you
to know that they because I think that's embarrassing to you.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
They're doing this as a couple. It's not on you
to like know the rules.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
And don't get me wrong, if it's just I saw
Todd's wife cheating, you know Barbara was out cheating, saw
Kaitlin's man out or Paulina's man out, and I know
that they're in a committed relationship. I'm not a good
friend if I don't provide her with the facts. Now,
whatever she does with that after that's not my business.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
But I think to your point, I think would also
depend on how close I am with someone, Like I'm
close enough with you guys to know.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
That none of you have that arrangement.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Yeah, no, you better tell me.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
But here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
If there's something that I don't know, like, God forbid,
I don't want to use anybody always any anyone here
as an example, God forbid, my good friend significant other
is out with someone else and they did have this,
there was an understanding inside of there, or they were
in a fight or something. There was a reason why
that would have been acceptable. And then I say something

(12:59):
and then they back together. Well, now I'm the I'm
gonna wind up being the odd man out because the
other person, even if they weren't supposed to be doing it,
and they get back together, I run the risk of
getting locked out of the friendship because now that person's
embarrassed by their behavior and they know that I know,
you've never been part of that before, You've never been
part of Because I have two, I have to where
I wind up the bad guy.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
What I did. All I was doing was looking out
for my friend, and.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
The other person was doing something they weren't supposed to
be doing, and then I call it out to my
friend like, hey, look, I don't know if that's right,
Like my obligation is to you, and then they they
wind up making up, and then it's like, oh, well,
we don't want him around because he's you know, he snitches,
he talks too much, you know, or there or they're
both embarrassed about the whole things.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
And then so somehow you are the one out.

Speaker 5 (13:44):
Yeah, no, I know that's a common reaction, but if
it's a good friend, Like if you did that to
me and we got back together, I would not allow
you to feel weird for what you did.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
You did the right thing. That is the right thing
to do in my eyes.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
So I know you don't want to get involved, but
I'm asking you guys to.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
Get involved same And and if we get weird on you,
like if it backfires and your friend is starting to
act weird towards you, I feel like that was never
your real france, and BEGIN would agree.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
You know, you did yourself a favor.

Speaker 2 (14:09):
This is why Kiki, you need to produce big tim
for all of us, not just some of us, because
because I wouldn't know if I saw the guy acting
a four, I wouldn't know. I've never seen the man full.
I've only seen like pictures of him. I would only
know if his left arm was cheating on you. I
wouldn't know if his whole body was. And uh, finally
in headlines, vanilla is still the number one ice cream flavor.

(14:30):
Vanilla ice cream is America's favorite. Data from instacart, so
it's vanilla was the most ordered ice cream flavor on
the platform in summer of twenty twenty four. It also
top the list for summer twenty twenty three. Now see,
I would have thought that this was because vanilla ice
cream is the base of like everything, right, like your
cookies and cream, vanilla, you know whatever, what over other

(14:53):
kind of stuff in there vanilla, But that's not it.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
It's vanilla. People are ordering vanilla the flavor. That's it
is Instagart.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
This isn't like Briars or somebody say, well, we sell
the most vanilla because they mix it with stuff.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Well, it's delicious, no jasons. There's so many options, like
why just vanilla.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
It's I think it's the best flavor.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
It is delicious, is yeah, it's like a nice French
vanilla or somebody's very nice, like it's fine. I drink
French vanilla coffee every single day. But like, if you're
ordering from Instacart and there's a thousand different flavors, you don'
want a little bit of re season there. You don't
want a little bit of chocolates. But if you have
vanilla nothing, you can add whatever you want to it.
But you're already buying it adventure. You could make it

(15:32):
anything you want. You could do caramel, you could do chocolate.
It's harder to do if you've already got chocolate. You
can't really add vanilla to it.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
I'm like a nana.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
I like neopolitan, Like you know, no, it's it's vanilla
chocolate strawberry all lined up.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
It's too much of a wis to.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
Strawberries.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
I'm trying to get focused on one flavor and then
boom were onto another. It's like it's too much of
a flavor swing for me. Okay, it's too I need
more consistency in my ice cream meeting than that.

Speaker 5 (16:02):
You will order justin vanilla cone and like sit on
your couch naked because it's day.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
Well, first of all, on my new couch. Never a cone.
It would be a cup. Okay, it's like a pint
of vanilla ice cream, Like you just order that.

Speaker 3 (16:16):
You're like, let me mow this down.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Yeah, no, I would get that. I would get that.
We get that.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
I'm also I shared this with you before, but I
was very upset to learn many years ago that like,
whatever the is it like a half a pint? Or
is that a pint? The one that's about this big,
maybe three or four inches tall. They sell them like
inconvenience stores. And I don't mean the mini one. I
mean like the one that you can.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
Hold in your hands. I think that's a pint.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
I was very upset to learn that's not a single survey,
because I would go to the grocery store and I
would see that and be like okay, and then I'd
sit down front.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
I just that's gone.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah boom, I'm gone. And that's I think that's for
four people. Yeah, whoa, I think it's for four people.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah you telling us that, right?

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Oh? Dare you?

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Well? I just I didn't want you to be surprised
in the way that I was. I'm sorry. How many calories?
Oh my god? Okay, well, okay, free was delicious.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
It's National get out of the Doghouse Day, well hello,
that's very appropriate, National be someone Day, okay, take time
out of your day to make a difference in a
child's life, and National Junk Food Day
