is really but this is what you You can't do
a job and you can't talk.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
When I'm up in the game, I am down at
les And when I'm down in the game, I am
up at life.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
She might be onto something. See I be knowing she doesn't.
You went from knowing to not knowing to knowing. You'd
be knowing again? Sound right though for me?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Okay, listen, I can't talk, but you be knowing anyways.
On people accused of misconduct at one specific sports they
all work at one specific sports team. Also, if I
can find the words the rapper's lawyer that said he
was just kidding when he filmed himself doing drugs while driving.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Allen's entertainmer report, He's on the bread show.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
A report posted by the Athletic claims at least eight
men who work for or used to work for the
Detroit Tigers, their parent company, or related partners committed misconduct
towards female staffers, things like harassment, abuse, or discrimination. Some
of those accused are CEOs or senior in the company,
(02:28):
vice presidents, high level managers, and examples of the allegations
are unwanted comments, inappropriate behavior, discrimination and treatment, talking about
appearance or dress code, and a culture that females say
is a male dominated culture. One of the people is
actually a man who was speaking to the Athletic wanted
(02:50):
to remain anonymous, of course, And some are saying that
some of these people have already been fired, some are
still there, with one I think most recently leaving in
April for something similar to what is being accused of,
but it's obviously still developing. I mean, that's a lot
in one organization. Speaking of sports, Travis Kelce is owning
up to his role in that collision that forced Xavier
(03:12):
Worthy out of the Chiefs week one loss to the Chargers.
The tight End shared his regret over the freak accident
during the latest New Heights episode with his brother Jason yesterday,
and he took full accountability. Said, I wasn't ready that
first drive, ran into one of my guys and often
out of the game. I literally took out one of
my players. He said, that's one of the most frustrating parts.
It's hard to get your juices back knowing you just
(03:34):
heard a guy. Jason kind of pressed him to go
into more depths depth today is really a struggle for
me to talk depth on the actual.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
You.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I don't know, Like, where is my Greek princess energy?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
We need the great guy to come out right there,
you can do it. Where are you Poseidon? He went
on to say that he feels like spit after the play.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Buddy hopes that the second year pass catcher gets back
to full health as soon as the Chiefs, you know,
need him out on that field. But of course people
are blaming Taylor Swift because in her New Heights episode
she talked about how excited she was when they drafted
Xavier Worthy and she's so powerful that two years later
it's her fault that he got.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Injured and kicked out of a game. So just gonna
leave that right there.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
And Kodak Black filmed himself driving down the I ninety
five in Miami while appearing to sip cough syrup through
a straw, but.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
His lawyer says it was just a joke. Okay, it's
a silly joke.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
The incident was captured on video that of course went viral.
It shows him without a shirt on behind the wheel
of a car, and he's bragging about sipping that drink wrong,
You got a cough.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
I think the allergy season down there or something like that.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yeah. He then flashes a bottle which appears to me
to be containing promethazine, which you know, we don't know
what's really in there. I don't know why he's showing
is that that's a prescription drug for you know, a cough.
It's cough syrup that can be used as a drug
called lean if you are not familiar. So his lawyer
is now saying he should not be charged because he
(05:03):
was being funny.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
It was juice. He thought it was gonna be that's it.
That's a very creative lawyer. I like that. He was
just kidding. He's just joking with all of that.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, he was trolling social media.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
I did perfectly understandable. You know what it happens.
Speaker 2 (05:22):

Does anybody own a dictionary store? They are? Well, that's
why because knowing mind it. The most widely printed book
in the world is the catalog for Ikea. Ikea has
(06:22):
over two hundred million copies of its catalog circulated annually,
and this surpasses the amount of printing that the Christian
Bible has. That's not fair because you said book, that's
a catalog. That's a book.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
If I say I'm going to go shopping in my
my book, that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
