you guys may be the judge on this one, but
I think you can take this one into your day.
Here's your daily Nugget for the nineteenth and November twenty
twenty five. Tolerated failure.

Speaker 8 (05:48):
I thought it was interesting right off the bats, kind
of interesting term.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Tolerated failure imprints learning better than success. Tolerated failure. If
you can tolerate failing, I'm getting it's better. It's better
you learn more from failure than success.

Speaker 8 (06:12):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Is that?

Speaker 5 (06:13):
What that's I mean, it picks it up, the brain
picks it up faster. Yeah, you know, it can be
part of a strategy because it's one of those things
that you, you know, sometimes you want to try and avoid.
You don't want to repeat mistakes. Right, You learn, you grow,
that's what you're supposed to do.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
You tolerate it, I mean as well as you learn
something from it. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:19):
Give me news this morning.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Crash tough out here the streets.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
Hey, good morning friends, And in case you missed it,
it has been a whirlwind of the last fifteen hours
or so. Congress passed a bill that'll force the Justice
Department to release all unclassified files related to Jeffrey Epstein
and his sex trafficking operation. Now, this legislation is known
as the Epstein Files Transparent Transparency Act the ef TA,

(08:49):
and it mandates the release of all these files and
communications that were collected by the Justice Department. Crucially, the
bill prevents officials from redacting information simply for reasons of embarrassment,
reputational harm, or political sensitivity, ensuring that figures referenced in
the investigation cannot be protected.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Okay, so that means you can't magic mark their name
thought the files.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
Legedly supposedly, which the House of Representatives passed it in
a near unanimous vote of four twenty seven to one
yesterday with a single opposing vote coming from one Republican.
And then hours later, the Senate followed suit, passing the
bill unanimously by consent, which then sent it directly to

(09:36):
President Trump's death Now, to my knowledge, he hasn't signed
it just yet. He had originally opposed it all, but
he says he's indicated that he will be signing it
into law, which will then force the Justice Department to
release the records within thirty days.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Awesome, I'm sure, I'm sure he's gonna sign it. What
do you guys think? I mean, now we're gonna what
I guess. We can't draw out names, but just let
your imagination go.

Speaker 5 (10:03):
Names so much, alrighty, especially the last couple of days.

Speaker 9 (10:07):
Yes, I mean.

Speaker 4 (10:08):
I just saw I just saw a very very popular
person come out and say that she was on the radar,
which was so weird.

Speaker 5 (10:14):
Wh Yeah, yeah, somebody was saying that to her about her.

Speaker 9 (10:20):
That was the elegic thing. Who knows what names we're
going to see on this thing.

Speaker 5 (10:24):
One things for sure, some names we are seeing. Uh. Well,
actually we'll get to those concert announcements in just a bit.
But great news for the city of Tampa. They're well,
they've launched a new traffic platform.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
They send a three year contract with a company called
one Dot Network that allows traffic managers and construction crews
to instantly push out real time info about all road
and lane closures. So instead of what they've been having
to do in the past, sending spreadsheets and emails and
things that take time. Click of a couple of buttons,
boo boo boop, and within minutes, all the apps, Google Maps,

(10:58):
Apple Maps, ways, you name it, all going to be
updated within minutes. So that way people have got real
time updates on what's happening with construction. Oh wait, there's
a closure right here in two seventy five. Up careful
about Dale Mabry heads up on the sad.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
It's good now, because that's another thing. It's just ended now.
It's good. Sometimes you see this stuff kind of sitting
there for a little bit.

Speaker 5 (11:17):
Yeah. And Tampa, you know, we've continuously been one of
the worst cities for congestion in the US, so hopefully
that'll help. So yay, good thing. Also yay. Molly Crue

(13:09):
She dropped dead in the middle of the sermon during
Sunday Nights episode. She'd been on the show since Sea
This in two for over thirty five years. Now that
the producers had confirmed, she's quote unquote dead as a doornail.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Damn rest in peace. Nobody's safe. Wish I had Taps
to play for that, but.

Speaker 5 (13:29):
We might need him for a couple of things. Did
you hear who has just partnered with Ford to sell
a certified pre owned vehicles online Amazon. You'll be able
to browse the inventory, work out the financing, and complete
the purchase with Amazon Autos. Now it's not going to

(13:50):
be shipped to your front door in minutes or hours
or days though, Uh, you'd have to schedule the pickup.
You'll have to pick it up at the participating dealer.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Do I need any other website besides Amazon to do
anything in life at this point?

Speaker 5 (14:10):
Well, I mean they do sell groceries.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
I'm gonna open my mouth deliver my food.

Speaker 5 (14:17):
Sure that there's somebody there on there for that or feature,
right if your French medical yeah, like you know, thinking

on the talk back feature of the free iHeartRadio app,
Can't Wait. No one likes a nice little scavenger hunt
every once in a while in their life.

Speaker 5 (14:48):
You know, we've got one every Friday for you. First
Friday on ninety eight Rock, which, by the way, they
congratulations to Nathaniel our very first fast Friday winter last week,
we hit a pair of tickets over at the Wave
right off of Bay Shore Boulevard. Within an hour, he
figured it out, drove his butt on over there and
picked up the tickets so you could be next this

(15:11):
Friday are around eleven forty. Ali's gonna go live with
the clue. She'll give you about a twenty minute heads
up as to where you'll be able to find those tickets.

with ninety eight Rock.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Thanksciting Tampa Bay's rock station ninety eight Rocks Crashing AJ
and earlier. We were just talking during the morning Quickie
about the next to move for Amazon, which is cars apparently.

Speaker 5 (15:54):
Now, yeah, they've teamed up before. Now keep this in
mind and grited. They've tried, you know, selling some cars
in the past too, but they're going to be selling
with Ford certified pre owned vehicles online. But it's not
gonna be one of those things like when you buy
anything else on Amazon that you press send and then
they'll be delivering to your doors in hours or maybe
even days later. You'll have to go to the dealership

(16:14):
to pick it up.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
You know. So, what's what's next in this whole world
of uh push delivery, instant gratification. The Amazons and the
people are talking back right now on the iHeartRadio apps
is dere Kamara Pica. Maybe with the Amazon Auto thing.
Maybe if you have a Prime membership to get a
free gift I pre floor mats.

Speaker 9 (16:35):
Yeah, there you go, one free gallon of gas.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
One free gallon of gas. All right, you brought up
a good point producer Rex earlier. What's what's the what's
the next?

Speaker 4 (16:44):
The next thing for Amazon is that you're going to
be tipping the drivers when they drop your stuff off.
I'm surprised we don't do this already. We tip every
other driver that brings stuff to us.

Speaker 9 (16:56):
Why not? Amazon driver?

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Did you just speak that into exist? That's right there.
There's probably Amazon on your phone right now, listening, going.
Someone just came up with a really good idea, Dampa Bay.
And you know what that idea is? For sale?

Speaker 9 (17:08):
All right?

Speaker 5 (17:10):
Okay free? Now somebody else is claiming it, We're.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Gonna steal it. I wish you wouldn't have said that.
You know what, I don't want to have to do
it either. They come to my house every day.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
People do already in different ways, you know, set up
little refrigerators or stands with food and drinks, things of
that nature, especially around the holidays.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
All right, well, we'll check the crash about feature. See
what's going on with the thoughts of that one among
other things. Here it's crashing a J and naughtier Ron
Tampa Bay's rock station NAUGHTI eight rocks crash and AJ
got that second clue the mystery of coming up minutes away.
Look out for that. But I had an interesting topic
to come up.

Speaker 5 (17:52):
And we're talking about Amazon, how they're now going to
be partnering with Ford and going to be offering some
pre sale vehicles online. Yeah, some used vehicles you'll be
able to purchase there. So it sparked a whole different debate.
What's next? Right?

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Producers mentioned tipping drivers or Amazon, and we said, is
that going to be a thing? Is that the next thing?
And somebody hit the talkback feature of the free iHeartRadio app?

Speaker 10 (18:17):
Do you want to crash?

Speaker 2 (18:18):
AJ?

Speaker 10 (18:18):
Producer X, I'm gonna jump right on board with producer X.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
Tip your drivers. I'm a FedEx driver right down the
road from.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
The studio there, and yeah, you tip the pizza man,
you eat it in fifteen minutes, it's gone.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
I'll bring you a seventy five inutes TV. It lasts
a little longer than that.

Speaker 4 (18:37):
Pizza Tip your drivers ninety eight rocks to Bay.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Oh wow, that was That was a take that I
didn't expect to get, but I knew they would come
and drove. Man, it's kind of hard to argue with
that that take right there. Actually, I get that.

Speaker 5 (18:53):
I think there's pluses and minuses to every situation, but
I feel like then it opens up the can of worms. Well,
if that's what shouldn't be tipped in, I mean every
thing should be tipped in at that point. But I mean,
you're bringing a big, old' heavy TV. Yeah, no, common courtesy.
Somebody does an awesome job. Sure, cool.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Maybe it's some options. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
It's gonna link right to your account. You're gonna be
able to digitally tip them.

Speaker 5 (19:14):
Everything is a tip.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
Now you know where I got out of that. Oh,
let's order some pizza.

Speaker 4 (19:21):
Hungry right now, you're gonna feel so bad every time

Speaker 5 (27:33):
Welcome to Florida or not Florida. So today's story begins
with our twenty seven year old superstar Saba. See Saba
was hanging out the window of a black suv and
get this, waving a semi automatic rifle. Geez, somebody called
nine one one when they saw that. They were concerned.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
It's gotta be a good reason for this.

Speaker 5 (27:53):
When the cops caught up with him, the gun was
sitting on the back seat of his suv. He also
had a large capacity magazine with thirty bullets hidden in
his pant lag. Okay, well, here's the thing. He had
at least two ladies that were in the vehicle with him,
and when the cops asked, hey, why are you waving
the gun around? What's going on? His response he was

(28:16):
attempting to have quote unquote sexual relations with them and
quote believed women liked these things. End quotes.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
Hmm, break down here. I thought she liked it. I
don't think that holds up in court. All right, we've
got our resident expert on ladies in the studio, a J.
Do you find any of this sexier?

Speaker 5 (28:42):
I mean, hey, I do like guns. I like going
on guns. I'm a fan of that. But that's not there.
I don't know. To me, that's not going to be like,
oh hey, that's right there, the magazine in the sock
there hanging out in the traffic, just waving around. Absolutely
not a Roberta.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Any sexiness here?

Speaker 5 (28:59):
Oh no, none?

Speaker 2 (29:01):
Okay, there you go.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
Yeah, it sounds like his idea of romance has misfired
big time.

Oh and by the way, it turns out he's actually
been convicted on weapon charges four separate times.

Speaker 5 (29:19):
So what do you think for Berda? Is this a
real catch Florida or not Florida. I'm definitely going with
not Florida. Yes, he is a real catch for the police.

Speaker 2 (29:28):

Speaker 5 (30:41):
Oh hey. Congress has delivered a unanimous message to the
Justice Department, passing the Epstein Files Transparency Transparency Act. The
landmark legislation forces the release of all unclassified files and
communications related to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operation to ensure

(31:01):
full accountability. The bill explicitly prohibits redacting information to prevent embarrassment,
reputational harm, or political sensitivity. Okay, the bill now heads
to President Trump, who has signal that I'll sign it,
meaning that the records will become public within thirty days,

(31:22):
within thirty days, within thirty days, that's what they say,
Which that's a quick turnaround.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
That is, I didn't realize that.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
Hot off the heels of this news, former US Secretary
Treasury Secretary Larry Summers is resigning from the Open Eye's
Board of directors. His departure comes after this release, showing
that he maintained a friendly relationship with Epstein long after
he pled guilty to soliciting prostitution from an underage girl

(31:49):
in two thousand and eights.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
There you go to the first first of who knows
how many.

Speaker 5 (31:55):
Coming up here now it is Vegas. I hope that
there's not bets on that, but it's disgusting you'd bet
on anything exactly right. Here's some other news for you.
Southwest Florida Water Management District is putting well every Bay
Area county on homeowners noted and homeowners unnoticed by issuing
a Phase one water shortage. Now, it does not mean

(32:17):
that restrictions are happening now, but it's just putting it
on our rain ar As the rainy season is now concluded,
we're heading into dry season, which things are only going
to get worse, you know. I guess that's that's the
one bad thing about not having any like tropical storms
or storms come through. Yeah, bringing that much needed.

Speaker 9 (32:34):
Rain we got.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
We got a we got ahead of the deficit last
year with a last storm, of course, and it just
was our surplus.

Speaker 5 (32:41):
And now it's now it's not going to be looking
so good for a brush fire season come to spring.
But the water shortage runs from December first until July
first and all of our counties right now, just as
a warning, but if they do move into phase two
that could mean watering trictions.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
I just want to put it out there for the
businesses to have their sprinkler set. These weird tires like sprinklers,
and then the time it is like, yes, check those, yeah, all.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
Right, the ones that are broken that are just spewing
the water out into the parking lot.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
Checking right, which, speaking of water, the power of water
did some insane damage to the historic Thunderbird Beach Resort
and Treasure Island. And their plan was after you know,
since the devastation of Hurricane Helen has not opened, that
they would you know, come back bigger, stronger. Well, they
seek to city Ordnance amendment to increase the building height,

(33:38):
specifically about they wanted to go from its current sixty
foot limit to eighty feet. They were asking for twenty
more additional feet so they can you know, just go
another little fire, yeah, and build up a little bit. However,
it was turned down. Treasure Island leaders and residents pushback,
setting concerns over changing the residential character of the island
as well as straining local infrastructure. So the owners are

(33:59):
now moving forward. They're going to move forward with a
different plan that'll adhere to the existing community limits that sitelines.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
There's a lot of people have been looking out their
windows seeing.

Speaker 5 (34:09):
What they like for a long time, and I get it,
I get it, but that's sad everything. I mean, that's
the fremous cross. There's not exactly housing right there too. Yeah,
twenty feet more big news for grocery shoppers in Florida.
Kroger is ending its direct grocery delivery service RP next year.

(34:31):
They're going to be closing their automated fulfillment centers throughout
the entire state of Florida. That means not just here
in Tampa, but Jacksonville, Groveland, you name it. It's all
part of a national effort to optimize Kroger's e commerce
network and increase profitability. As they say, these high tech
fulfillment centers just didn't meet the financial expectations.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
I never got it. Seems like I get marketed for everything.
I'm never got marketed for Kroger grocery shopping.

Speaker 5 (34:57):
They had a lot of billboards and things for a
while that they were, you know, and of course pick
names for a lot of people that are familiar with them.
Maybe in other parts. You know, they came down here
from other parts of the country.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
That takes me a brick and mortar around here, long
long time.

Speaker 9 (35:10):
All right, chances are Amazon bottom miss.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
Well.

Speaker 5 (35:14):
Now they're going to be focusing on their third party delivery.
It's not Amazon, with companies like Instacart towards ashen Uber
Eats got you. Great news came in the Tampa yesterday.
The Motley Crue Tesla and Extreme will be taking over
the Amps Saturday, August sixteenth, and we'll have tickets to

four day headliners. Over one hundred and fifty bands will
be there, including other acts like Godsmack, Five Finger, Death Punch,
Motionless and White, Lamb of God, and Stain just to
name a couple. And finally, researchers say that raccoons might
be inching closer to becoming pets. Study from the University

(36:01):
of Arkansas Department in Biology found that the raccoons are
physically changing in response to their interactions with humans. But
physically changing, they mean that their faces are evolving to
look cuter. Even those little bigger eyes Bowey, Loop and
Fight look cutectable.

Speaker 2 (36:19):
Someone on the golf course yesterday, And it was really
weird seeing this story this morning because we looked at us.
I was racking was fastened by I looked at us
and gave us that look like, look how cute I am?

Speaker 1 (36:29):

Speaker 2 (36:30):
Wouldn't you like me and meet in your house?

Speaker 5 (36:32):
No, which they say. They're also becoming a little bit
less afraid go figure and even starting to show physical
signs of domestication syndrome. But they're not the only animals.
This is happening to foxes and mice that live in
urban areas. I also have softer facial features, which I
remember I met somebody long ago at a pool that
had a pet fox and it was amazing.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (36:54):
Right, but it's a lot of work. You're not supposed
to have them. But I always often wonder about that fox.

Speaker 9 (37:00):
That fox is doing. It's adorable.

Speaker 2 (37:02):
What would you name your fox or your raccoon? Right there?
I mean, that's there. There's the big question is what
does the fox say? It's another question right there. Nobody
needs know that I'm going to rocket rocket from a
for a fox or for the raccoon, for the raccoon.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
