Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fred's show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day. Oh,
there's there's beef between Bill Belichick and CBS and they
called his ass out. Former New England Patriots coach Bill
Belichick is calling out CBS Sunday Morning for what he
says was a selectively edited interview that created a false
narrative about his girlfriend, Jordan Hudson controlling the conversation. Belichick

(00:24):
says he only agreed to do the interview to promote
his new book, The Art of Winning, and had made
it clear through his publisher that he didn't want to
discuss personal topics. But when the interviewer asked about how
he met Hudson, who was twenty four to his seventy three,
she cut in off camera and said, we're not talking
about this. CBS News then responded to that and said, hey,

(00:46):
there were no preconditions for this conversation, and that was
confirmed more than once. So they tried to say the
interviewer was unprofessional, which that is very uncool. By the way,
that is really uncool for them to be like because
the whole statement, which is on the univer received North
Carolina's website official communications website, is long and It basically
says that he was unprofessional for going there, when in

(01:07):
fact they had cleared this multiple times that he could
in fact ask that question. So apparently he was never
told he couldn't. This is starting to be and now
there are people who are friends with him, Charles Barkley,
of all people, Charles Barkley. Okay, there's a guy who's
amazing on television, was an incredible basketball player, not necessarily
known to have the greatest off camera reputation, and he's

(01:29):
even saying on camera about someone else's personal life.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
That guy's a friend of mine.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
I'm worried about him, and I'm going to call him
and see if he's okay. Like there's an elder abuse
type narrative going around now. Like apparently allegedly his family's
even worried about him.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
After they saw that her eyes are also I mean,
I don't want to speculate, but she got crazy eyes.
But if I'm an interviewer and your relationship is a
topic of conversation and your girlfriend is right off camera,
you've already made the interview thirty minutes late because you
have stormed out and expected Bill, who I'm interviewing.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
To follow you I'm allowed to comment on what's going on.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Don't bring her if you don't want to talk about
it and wear a button down.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Jesus, I guess what was seen on camera was only
one of many instances of her being upset or stopping
it or to your point, leaving the interview, or trying
to control the narrative. I mean, who is this woman?
He literally it's Bill Belichick. The guy knows how to
conduct himself. He's won whatever, six Super Bowls or something like.
He's the greatest football coach, professional football coach ever. Undisputedly,

(02:31):
no one argues that he knows how to do this.
He knows how to say nothing. Bill Belichick, of all people,
is the expert of saying nothing. So I don't understand,
like it's bad. I'd be so embarrassed.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Time me in on football questions to one of the
greatest coaches, like football questions Jordan.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Bill Belichick, who's now the head coach at UNC, says
that the final eight minute segment didn't reflect the full
thirty five minute interview, which mostly covered football and not
his personal life.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
So she made him.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Dress up like a sailor for Halloween two, and she
was a mermaid, and I think that's worse.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
A good look, Like, what are you? What is going on?
Are you trying to control him? Do you?

Speaker 1 (03:12):
You're twenty four years old, Like you might be a
lovely person, but you don't know everything about everything. I mean,
I know, I thought I did when I was twenty four,
but I mean it would take an elder like I
don't know, say Bill Belichick, to tell me, hey, know
your role here? Okay, but I don't know. He must
that thing must he must think that thing is like
no other thing he's ever had before, because it's honestly

(03:33):
going to blem it. It's gonna put a blemish on
this guy's reputation her Instagram.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
She's wearing all his rings, she's every item of clothing,
says like Belichick, like, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
It's turning me.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Off, very odd.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah, I'm surprised. I'm surprised that he would go for this.
But an unidentified man fell from twenty one feet the
right field wall in Pittsburgh. I guess this has happened
yesterday at PNC Park during the seventh inning of the
Pirates and the game this was last night. Actually, players
from both teams took a knee while medical personnel attended
to the injured man.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
This is a crazy story.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
All eleven Syracuse high school lacrosse players have turned themselves
in over a hazing scandal that's happening there. Eleven students
in the West Hill High School in Syracuse, New York
have surrendered to authorities following a severe hazing incident involving
younger members of the school's boys lacrosse team. The students
were given a forty eight hour ultimatum by the district

(04:28):
attorney there to turn themselves the interface felony kidnapping charges.
All have since been charged of misdemeanor unlawful imprisonment. This
guy condemned the act as hazing on steroids, emphasizing its
criminal nature and potentially serious that it could have caused
serious harm. He noted that the victim that was not
physically injured may suffer long term emotional trauma. He also

(04:49):
highlighted the danger of such actions being misinterpreted by law enforcement,
potentially leading to tragic consequences. In response to the incident,
the high school, the West Hills Central School, has canceled
the remainder of the varsity boys lacrosse season starting today,
if you're playing in Southwest, you might enjoy some extra
leg room.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
I guess you can buy that. I'm not.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
I forgot all the changes they made, except for the
fact that you'll have to pay for luggage starting later
this month. Your bags don't fly free anymore. Why we
got to peel those stickers off there? We talked about
this like two months ago.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
I don't know why, and it didn't know so soon
I'm traveling what in like three.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Weeks, your bags will not fly free. My friends and
they're not coming with me, Then they're not coming with you.
Oh yeah, I mean that's the thing about Southwest, and
you know, shout out to Southwest. You know, nice airline,
nice people. I have friends that work there.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
I do.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
But you know, the whole thing used to be it
was less expensive than everybody.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
It was notoriously live.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
It was always going to be less than everybody else,
as much as half the price.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
But then it wasn't gonna be that fancy.

Speaker 5 (05:48):
You know.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
It was kind of a cattle call to get on
the plane.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
But your bags were free, and they'd give you a
drink and some peanuts, and they'd tell you a joke,
sing a little song. You know, or whatever, and you
get to El Paso just fine, yeah, or wherever you
were going the giant school bus in the air, right,
But now you're telling me it's going to be the
same or more than everybody else, which it tends to be. Now,
my bags aren't free, so I can't really necessarily say, well,
I'm saving on that.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Now I have assigned seats. I don't know. I don't
know if I like it. I think a lot of.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
People don't like it, like a lot of people. Oh
and I you know, used to be able to move
your flights around without paying for that and all kinds
of I don't know if they've changed that.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
But no.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Speaking of flying, flight attendants are warning that the free
or complimentary blankets that are giving giving out on planes
are gross and disgusting. They have stuff like hair, food, mold,
and bodily fluids in them. One flight attendant of twenty
years admitted, but not even flight attendants want to touch
the blankets. They've seen passengers use these things to clean
up spills, messes, wipe their noses, gather toenail clippings. Yea.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
How often these blankets get washed depends on the type
of flight. Now, I guess if you're like bougie and
you're on an international flight or you have like a
nice you know, business class seat or whatever, if it's
in a plastic bag, then you I guess, or to
assume that it has been sanitized at least washed in
hot water, and you can use those. But on domestic flights,
this woman says, I've had blankets on my flights that

(07:11):
we were instructed to just refold and put back in
the bin.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
That's another thing.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
If the blanket's touching the overhead bin h without any.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
Kind of barrier.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
I mean, think about that, like think about I mean,
we should probably go home and be lifesoling our bags
if you think about it, Because if you stick that
thing up there, then you just move on like everybody's
everything from their house and whatever all over the bag
and it goes up. And I mean, I think that's
one of those things where you know, as a germophobe,
I have to let Jesus take the wheel in certain

(07:41):
in certain situations. You know, I'm I don't get too
germany about hotels unless I can see nasty stuff.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
I just I can't.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
You just can't get you can't be germophobic on a plane.
I mean you can, but like there's just no point
because you've surrendered, Like as soon as you walk in
that little tube, you've surrendered. Like they will never get
the humanity off of a plane after the first time
that it flew with people on it, not to mention
twenty years later. So there's just no I see people
get on planes and like wipe everything down. I mean,

(08:09):
you're just taking one layer off, you know. I mean
unless you have some kind of like NASA elon Musk
Katie Perry kind of sanitation thing that you can spray
the thing down with, like some kind of nuclear thing.
I don't think you're ever getting the filth off of
the airplane. No, But then for some reason, I get
grossed out about pooping at my friend's houses. So I

(08:29):
don't know, which is probably far cleaner than the airplane
I set on to get to said friend's house.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
There's a girl named Maya.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
She's seventeen years old, and she suffered thousands of jellyfish
stings during a fourteen hour, twenty seven miles swim crossing
the Cook Strait, which separates New Zealand's North and South Islands.
It's just one more step forward on her ultimate goal
at age seventeen, of becoming the youngest person to complete
the Ocean's Seven, a series of brutal open water swims

(09:00):
around the globe.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
And I can barely run a mile. So there's that.
That's a good story.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
She was fourteen hour, twenty seven miles and that's just
one part of it. And thousands of jellyfish stings.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
What are you trying? Is that what got you to
get into college?

Speaker 1 (09:17):
Now you're gonna put that in your college resume that
you did that. And an overturned truck lost its load
of eight million dimes, which is eight hundred thousand dollars
worth of change. The Texas Department of Public Safety said
the eight wheeler rolled on his side. The truck had
gone off the road and the driver overcorrected, causing the
vehicle to overturn. The driver and a passenger were taken

(09:37):
to a hospital with minor injuries. The highway was closed
for several hours while they tried to clean up all
the change. But they were dimes all over the road.
I would have gotten out in the car and just
scooped them all up. Gotten me a good eight to
ten dollars something like that. I mean, it's a lot
of dimes, eight hundred thousand dollars worth of dimes all
over the thing. It's a school principal's day, and it's
Silver Star Service bannered day to day for Americans member

(10:00):
service members who have been wounded in combat. Let's get
to the entertainment report. Next, blogs coming up waiting by

Are we read and this is actually I think a
difficult week. I'll be honest. I think it's a difficult week.
I think it's a tough song. So we like to
make it hard to round here every now and again.
I'm sure that clip will be isolated. You're right, song
number one in the throwback throwedouts.

Speaker 4 (12:15):

I know it wastes my twenty five grand.

Speaker 4 (13:44):
He's under restricted.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
We really did look into that, by way.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
No, it was like real because we were talking to
management or hey whatever scene is. Yeah, I didn't want
to come out.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
We had to fight like ten people in for one
guy to sit actual fly Franky or Frankie Frankie j deal.
All right, so no one has a point. This is

(14:13):
another tough one. But if you know, you know, if

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
