Speaker 1 (00:00):
Right show is on the biggest stories of the day.
A lot of people, uh sent me video yesterday, the
video that we all saw the Southwest Airlines jet A
boarding and landing at Chicago Midway International Airport yesterday morning
after a smaller plane taxied right in front of it,
nearly resulting in a collision. So people send me this video,
So let me give you my official response on that video.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yeah, I've been waiting for that.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Actually, that was bad. That's my official Yes, that indeed,
indeed what you saw was very bad. It was. It
was very bad, and the Southwest dude saved the day.
Those guys were lying random applause. Southwest Airlines hero. We're
not sure they threw some peanuts at me and spilled
(00:42):
my drink on me, but I'll be damned if they
didn't save my life. Yeah, No, they do a great job.
Air traffic controllers did a great job. From what I
can see. It was the other pilot that in the
private jet that wasn't following instruction as well, and it
was his fault from what I can see. That that's raison.
All the information I've seen and I've listened to udo
from the ground controller and the Tower Control. I watched
the video as a pilot. That's what I think happened.
(01:04):
And I think after the FA things happened too because
they violated the guy who did that. So okay, Yeah,
the funny thing is those two dudes they wound up
plane the flying Southwest home that day. They ain't no
one letting them fly a plane out of there, so
you know, the company that owns that thing was probably like, hey,
you know what, why don't you go out to Greyhound
over there and we'll get you home. And how about
we'll call you, don't call us. That's crazy kind of
(01:25):
thing that could have been so bad though.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
It wouldn't be here. Those two.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yeah, no, they they were instructed, right, my friend told me,
like I guess in the audio they were said, they
were told not to go, and they quite literally went right.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
They gave them instructions to they call it hold short,
but to stay off that runway and then until the
plane took off and then they could cross it to
go to where they were parking, I think is what
they were doing. And they and the dude kind of
fumbled the instructions in the beginning. And it's like, oh no,
because when you hear somebody and like any pilot knows,
like it can get complicated with some of this stuff,
and you repeat it. That's why you repeat it back,
(01:59):
and then they tell you whether you repeated it back
correctly or not. And this dude just fumbled it. And
the guy was like, that's not what I said. Do this.
And as soon as I heard the fumble and like
the confusion, I'm like this, uh uh, you know, And
I think the guys in the tower were probably the
same way. They like watch this guy and then sure enough,
just right across and by the way, why don't we
look over there? Why don't we just look over there
(02:20):
before we go? You know, that's like rule number one
if you're driving or taxing an airplane, like, let's look
and see on the thing we're about to cross if
anyone's coming right. Caylen loves it when she's she's only
one of you that's been daring enough to get an airfread.
But you know me, I'm clear, right clear, laft. I
scream it out to her, and then she's supposed to respond, yes, Captain.
(02:42):
I go like, are we clear? Are we clear? Right? Calyn?
Because she's on the right side, she looked out the
window and tell me she has note she's a full
on the crew member.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
It's weird you make me wear a uniform but only you.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Though, Yeah, I know, I don't wear you know, it's
funny that you show up in one. I think Kalin
shows up to her free flight in a full pilot outfit.
And she made herself a captain too, which is weird,
and I have to salute her for some reason. I'm like,
is this the military now? All of a sudden, I
(03:12):
bring the cocktails. But shout out to Celibust Airlines did
a great job. Shout out to all their traffic controllers.
We have some of the best in the country working
here in Chicago. So yeah, that was really bad.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yes, school, Like what is the schooling for that? I
genuinely don't know. Is there a specialty?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah, and then we should call my boy Mike works
in the O'Hair tower. He can tell you. But it's
I think it's it's it's months and months and months
in like Oklahoma City, initial training, and then you have
to start it. If I remember correctly, you have to
start like a lesser facility and train and train and
train the years. It's years to become fully qualified, and
then I think, as you you can move up. I
(03:49):
don't know if they just start people out of oh here,
I don't think so. I don't think it's like day one,
are you.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Yeah, we knew in direction we need somebody up there
came yea.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
You couldn't find we need. We went to dinner, and
if you're from Chicago, then you would realize this. We
went to dinner in the second tallest building in the city,
arguably probably one of the top ten tallest buildings in
the world. We went to building to dinner in the building,
and she couldn't find it. Look up, I know it's
(04:18):
the tall one.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
He was When I get downtown, like my GPS gets
scrambled that our office is on that we we're done now,
So go.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Down the street and the kye that the office is on,
and then just look for the tallest building you see
and park.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Three Children's Hospital.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
I was in the walk that's several blocks over and
not the tallest building in town.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Direct place. I'm a suburban girl. Take me to the
suburbs now.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
My friend, my friend Gideon said that to me. He
heard that day when you were an hour laid for
dinner because you couldn't find it, and he goes, isn't
it Wasn't it isn't that place in the tallest building
in town, like the second tallest one. I was like, yeah,
no it is. It's it's an extremely famous tall building
and it's all you had to find.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Well, I'm ready to take my talents to the FAA
or whatever because we need some crossing guards or something
in the sky because I don't know what it's going on,
but I haven't flight coming up. But I'm not playing.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
We had all these people call me, why don't they
have Why don't they have those gates on the taxiways
that they have it for the trains. I think that's
where we're headed. Honestly, that's where we're headed. Why I mean,
And a lot of airports. I don't think Midway has
it yet. I think O'Hair has it, But a lot
of airports have like this lighting new newer lighting system
that like it creates like if there's an airplane on
(05:33):
the runway, then all of those crossing taxiways is just
a bright red stripe that goes across it. Like dummy,
don't like do not We're not We're not doing that.
I don't think Midway has that yet. But yeah, you're
supposed to look before you roll out there like that.
But those guys did a good job. Man, I probably
would have been freaking out too, Do you think I
(05:55):
don't know? I mean I did save Jason's life one day,
and I didn't freak out at all. But I don't know.
If I'm like about to land and some dude pulls
out in front of me, I don't think i'd be
as calm as that guy was. You know.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Oh, I didn't hear the audio. He was chill about it.
What do you do? Like, do you literally like pull
the little handle to go back up? Because I've seen that.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
In a movie one Well you push it forward, but yeah,
and then.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Goes right back up sort of.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, I mean he.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Did right because he went, well, no, that's what he.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
That's that's it, that's you know what move did he do?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Because like in my head, I was picturing them freaking out.
It's all so easy.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
No, I know, right, he reversed cowboy that thing. Man,
what moves do you did? The move where you fly
away because there's something.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
In your way, the move where you saved lives?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
But you. Honestly, there was not. I mean, I'm sure
there are are pilots who are more qualified to talk
about this than I am. But there there wasn't a
lot of time for error there, Like we're talking seconds,
Like if they had been like, eh, what's this guy
gonna do? Hey, hold on, let's land for a second. See. No,
like no, no, they were really paying attention and it
was a little ways out there, and I don't know,
like ma'am, I think they did a great job. But
(06:56):
then when you.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Go up, you know it's others. It's traffic up there too, Like.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Well, they're looking at they're keeping you away from that,
they're telling you what to do.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Oh so when he so, when he decided in the
instant to just go back up and not lay and
go back.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Up is called to go around. And it's very common.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Okay, And did you just get on the chair and.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Then they just give you a new instructions They just
tell you what they're looking at everything when you do that.
And by the way, I did get a bunch of
messages yesterday. By the way, it has become our crutch
of that I said, by the way, now between every sentence,
which is I think camin made me do it, but
oh cheerful. But I everybody was who was dming me, Well,
this happened to me, This has happened to me before.
And it's like, I'll have you know that for the
(07:35):
airplane to get down low, close to the ground and
then fly away is a like I said, it's common,
but it doesn't necessarily mean that a plane pulled out
in front of you. It could mean a lot of
other things. It could mean that it could mean the
pilot didn't think this the approach was stable. It could
mean he couldn't see the runway, you know, if it
was bad weather. There are a lot of reasons why
that might happen. That aren't you were about to die.
(07:56):
I'll just have you know from a pilot perspective, because
a lot of people are all that same thing happened
to me. Because one day we were flying and we
flew away and they came back around and landed. That happens.
That does happen. I mean, I've done it as a pilot.
I've had it happen when I'm on the plane, and
it could be a lot of different things. It could
be because the plane that took off in front of
you was a little too close and so you know,
and the pilot just said, hey, I don't know if
(08:17):
we're gonna be on the runway at the same time, like,
let's just go around whatever, like they always say, if
you're unsure, go around. So I don't want everyone to
think if that's happened to you, that you know that
it looked the same way that it did in that video,
because that was pretty scary. But shout out to all
the everybody but the gun in private jet. Yeah, man,
I'm sorry about having to work somewhere else now. Yeah, sorry,
(08:38):
and I'm not sure where, but okay, so what you
used to be a pilot? What happened? Well, did you
see the nightly news last night? Right? Yeah? Man, Yeah,
but people make mistakes. That one just could have been
I think a whole lot worse than than what came about.
McDonald's will not be implementing an egg surcharge in the
top stories of the day. So you want to go
(08:58):
to McDonald and get your stuff, it's going to cost
you the same. Waffle House, Danny's and a bunch of
other places have started charging extra a decade And we
were talking about this on Monday because I watched the documentary.
I don't know if any of you guys have started
it yet on Netflix. But a decade after, wellness influencer
Bell Gibson admitted she did not have terminal brain cancer,
which she claimed was cured by the healthy lifestyle that
(09:20):
made her famous. Her story has inspired a new Netflix
series and of course fresh outrage in Australia about the
cases lack of resolution. So authority said this week they're
still pursuing the disgrace Instagram star for unpaid fines, fueling
ongoing anger among Australians about one of the country's most
brazen online scams. So this is several years back, and
(09:43):
the Netflix series goes through this. She claimed she was
very very old. I think with stage four brain he's
some form of very rare stage four brain cancer. And
then her claim was that then it's spread everywhere. But
she was eating you know, beats and carrots and you know,
eggplant or whatever, and that supposedly saved her life. And
so there was a cookbook and there was an app,
and there was all this stuff. People spent all this
(10:03):
money and bought all this stuff. Turns out that maybe
more than likely none of that was true. So you know,
here you are thinking, I'm gonna this woman look miraculous
recovery because she followed this you know, diet plan, and
then it was suspect. Honestly, it was suspected, you know,
anyway she was and then she was like raising money
(10:24):
for charities and then not giving them money to chair.
I mean, there's a lot of bad here. But she
was finding two hundred and sixty one thousand dollars which
she had raised for charity and failed to donate. She
claims she has no money, no job, couldn't pay that.
They're still going after her though, So if you're wondering,
you know, because of this Netflix show, people are asking questions, Hey,
whatever happened to that lady? How'd she get off? So
(10:44):
I guess they are still looking into it. But she
hasn't spoken publicly in years and wasn't involved with her
paid by the creators of the Netflix show, So.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
She shook a lot of time. That's evil.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
It really is bad. Yeah, false hope. I mean, it's
one thing if you just you know, want people to
eat healthy and hope that they things happen. But if
you're claiming that you are griddled with cancer and are
still walking around looking completely healthy because you were because
you know, or partially because of this thing you're advertising.
I mean, that's terrible.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And the charity thing you're collecting money and not giving
I mean from innocent people. That's well.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
And she was pretty outspoken against Western medic medicine too,
which again a lot of people are, or I shouldn
say a lot of people. There are a number of
people who are. But yet if you're saying no eat
beats or whatever, and don't do any of that stuff,
and then you die because you trusted her, it's terrible. Yeah.
Researchers found that the use of hormonal contraceptives is associated
with a reduced interest in competition. The said you found
(11:38):
a difference between women who use the contraceptives, the hormonal contraceptives,
and those who don't. Women using hormonal contraceptives, let me
say that one more time, consistently reported a greater lack
of interest in competition compared to naturally cycling women. This
suggests that hormonal birth control might be associated with a
general dampening of competitive drive. This effect was not in
(12:00):
influence by whether a woman was in a relationship or not.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Is this why I don't like the Throwback throw Down.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I think this is it my birth control. That's what
it is.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Okay, that makes sense. I hate competition.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
If you stop taking it, then I'm going to Yeah,
then I guess you'd win more. Yeah, so you know,
think about that baby win the throwback Throwdown. I don't know.
And then what else do I have for you guys? Here?
Oh this is for you, Kiki, and only you. I'm
looking out for your health and well being today, all
of you. But two hundred and sixty six people downloaded
(12:32):
a special app and headed active for about ten days. Okay,
and basically the whole purpose of this study was that
you can improve your mental health, well being, an attention
span in just two weeks. The app blocked the phone's
ability to use the Internet for two weeks. Other features worked.
They still had access to computers and TVs and all
(12:53):
the rest of it, but simply not being able to
access the Internet on their phone made their mental health
signal deificantly better in this survey, so some could use
zoom and maps and all that stuff, but researchers learned
a lot tracking people's mental health, well being, and sustained
attention ability average daily screen time declined fifty percent from
(13:13):
more than five hours to only two and a half,
and after the break, ninety one percent of people should
improve scores in at least one category. Seventy one said
better mental health, seventy three said better subjective well being.
According to the survey, this even helped people who were
already on meds for depression. They felt better and all
because they didn't have the Internet on their phone, just
(13:34):
their phone. What do you think did you'd have to
use your computer? That's the only difference.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, So I'm taking the Internet off your phone, and
then all you got to do if you want the
Internet is you have to use it. It's a little
ait less convenient to use your computer, which means you're
probably going to use it less, which means your mental
health will improve.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Okay, let's try it, really, Yes.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
How long do you think this will last?
Speaker 2 (13:56):
To the next song?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Let's go on the honor system, have a computer in
front of you, I do. All I'm asking you is
do not look at the Internet on your phone for
any non work purpose until until until anytime, then tell
me when you did it.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
All of this is work. This isn't everything. I this
is not you know, I don't do this for me.
This is for everybody.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
You're a public services for the people. I tell her
one in my life the same thing. Oh, I had
to say that. I had to say.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Selfie is for the public.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I had to do that. They were in my area.
I had to do it. The entertainment report is next.
Friend Show
Right show is on the biggest stories of the day.

Though, Yeah, I know, I don't wear you know, it's
funny that you show up in one. I think Kalin
shows up to her free flight in a full pilot outfit.
And she made herself a captain too, which is weird,
and I have to salute her for some reason. I'm like,
is this the military now? All of a sudden, I
(03:12):
bring the cocktails. But shout out to Celibust Airlines did
a great job. Shout out to all their traffic controllers.
We have some of the best in the country working

then I think, as you you can move up. I
(03:49):
don't know if they just start people out of oh here,
I don't think so. I don't think it's like day one,

and then.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Goes right back up sort of.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, I mean he.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Did right because he went, well, no, that's what he.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
That's that's it, that's you know what move did he do?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Because like in my head, I was picturing them freaking out.
It's all so easy.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
No, I know, right, he reversed cowboy that thing. Man,
what moves do you did? The move where you fly
away because there's something.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
In your way, the move where you saved lives?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
But you. Honestly, there was not. I mean, I'm sure
there are are pilots who are more qualified to talk
about this than I am. But there there wasn't a
lot of time for error there, Like we're talking seconds,
Like if they had been like, eh, what's this guy
gonna do? Hey, hold on, let's land for a second. See. No,
like no, no, they were really paying attention and it
was a little ways out there, and I don't know,
like ma'am, I think they did a great job. But
(06:56):
then when you.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Go up, you know it's others. It's traffic up there too, Like.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Well, they're looking at they're keeping you away from that,
they're telling you what to do.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Oh so when he so, when he decided in the
instant to just go back up and not lay and
go back.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Up is called to go around. And it's very common.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Okay, And did you just get on the chair and.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Then they just give you a new instructions They just
tell you what they're looking at everything when you do that.
And by the way, I did get a bunch of
messages yesterday. By the way, it has become our crutch
of that I said, by the way, now between every sentence,
which is I think camin made me do it, but
oh cheerful. But I everybody was who was dming me, Well,
this happened to me, This has happened to me before.
And it's like, I'll have you know that for the
(07:35):
airplane to get down low, close to the ground and
then fly away is a like I said, it's common,
but it doesn't necessarily mean that a plane pulled out
in front of you. It could mean a lot of
other things. It could mean that it could mean the
pilot didn't think this the approach was stable. It could
mean he couldn't see the runway, you know, if it
was bad weather. There are a lot of reasons why
that might happen. That aren't you were about to die.
(07:56):
I'll just have you know from a pilot perspective, because
a lot of people are all that same thing happened
to me. Because one day we were flying and we
flew away and they came back around and landed. That happens.
That does happen. I mean, I've done it as a pilot.
I've had it happen when I'm on the plane, and
it could be a lot of different things. It could
be because the plane that took off in front of
you was a little too close and so you know,
and the pilot just said, hey, I don't know if
(08:17):
we're gonna be on the runway at the same time, like,
let's just go around whatever, like they always say, if
you're unsure, go around. So I don't want everyone to
think if that's happened to you, that you know that
it looked the same way that it did in that video,
because that was pretty scary. But shout out to all
the everybody but the gun in private jet. Yeah, man,
I'm sorry about having to work somewhere else now. Yeah, sorry,
(08:38):
and I'm not sure where, but okay, so what you
used to be a pilot? What happened? Well, did you
see the nightly news last night? Right? Yeah? Man, Yeah,
but people make mistakes. That one just could have been
I think a whole lot worse than than what came about.
McDonald's will not be implementing an egg surcharge in the
top stories of the day. So you want to go
(08:58):
to McDonald and get your stuff, it's going to cost
you the same. Waffle House, Danny's and a bunch of
other places have started charging extra a decade And we
were talking about this on Monday because I watched the documentary.
I don't know if any of you guys have started
it yet on Netflix. But a decade after, wellness influencer
Bell Gibson admitted she did not have terminal brain cancer,
which she claimed was cured by the healthy lifestyle that
(09:20):
made her famous. Her story has inspired a new Netflix
series and of course fresh outrage in Australia about the
cases lack of resolution. So authority said this week they're
still pursuing the disgrace Instagram star for unpaid fines, fueling
ongoing anger among Australians about one of the country's most
brazen online scams. So this is several years back, and
(09:43):
the Netflix series goes through this. She claimed she was
very very old. I think with stage four brain he's
some form of very rare stage four brain cancer. And
then her claim was that then it's spread everywhere. But
she was eating you know, beats and carrots and you know,
eggplant or whatever, and that supposedly saved her life. And
so there was a cookbook and there was an app,
and there was all this stuff. People spent all this
(10:03):
money and bought all this stuff. Turns out that maybe
more than likely none of that was true. So you know,
here you are thinking, I'm gonna this woman look miraculous
recovery because she followed this you know, diet plan, and
then it was suspect. Honestly, it was suspected, you know,
anyway she was and then she was like raising money
(10:24):
for charities and then not giving them money to chair.
I mean, there's a lot of bad here. But she
was finding two hundred and sixty one thousand dollars which
she had raised for charity and failed to donate. She
claims she has no money, no job, couldn't pay that.
They're still going after her though, So if you're wondering,
you know, because of this Netflix show, people are asking questions, Hey,
whatever happened to that lady? How'd she get off? So
(10:44):
I guess they are still looking into it. But she
hasn't spoken publicly in years and wasn't involved with her
paid by the creators of the Netflix show, So.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
She shook a lot of time. That's evil.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
It really is bad. Yeah, false hope. I mean, it's
one thing if you just you know, want people to
eat healthy and hope that they things happen. But if
you're claiming that you are griddled with cancer and are
still walking around looking completely healthy because you were because
you know, or partially because of this thing you're advertising.
I mean, that's terrible.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And the charity thing you're collecting money and not giving
I mean from innocent people. That's well.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
And she was pretty outspoken against Western medic medicine too,
which again a lot of people are, or I shouldn
say a lot of people. There are a number of
people who are. But yet if you're saying no eat
beats or whatever, and don't do any of that stuff,
and then you die because you trusted her, it's terrible. Yeah.
Researchers found that the use of hormonal contraceptives is associated
with a reduced interest in competition. The said you found
(11:38):
a difference between women who use the contraceptives, the hormonal contraceptives,
and those who don't. Women using hormonal contraceptives, let me
say that one more time, consistently reported a greater lack
of interest in competition compared to naturally cycling women. This
suggests that hormonal birth control might be associated with a
general dampening of competitive drive. This effect was not in
(12:00):
influence by whether a woman was in a relationship or not.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Is this why I don't like the Throwback throw Down.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I think this is it my birth control. That's what
it is.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Okay, that makes sense. I hate competition.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
If you stop taking it, then I'm going to Yeah,
then I guess you'd win more. Yeah, so you know,
think about that baby win the throwback Throwdown. I don't know.
And then what else do I have for you guys? Here?
Oh this is for you, Kiki, and only you. I'm
looking out for your health and well being today, all
of you. But two hundred and sixty six people downloaded
(12:32):
a special app and headed active for about ten days. Okay,
and basically the whole purpose of this study was that
you can improve your mental health, well being, an attention
span in just two weeks. The app blocked the phone's
ability to use the Internet for two weeks. Other features worked.
They still had access to computers and TVs and all
(12:53):
the rest of it, but simply not being able to
access the Internet on their phone made their mental health
signal deificantly better in this survey, so some could use
zoom and maps and all that stuff, but researchers learned
a lot tracking people's mental health, well being, and sustained
attention ability average daily screen time declined fifty percent from
(13:13):
more than five hours to only two and a half,
and after the break, ninety one percent of people should
improve scores in at least one category. Seventy one said
better mental health, seventy three said better subjective well being.
According to the survey, this even helped people who were
already on meds for depression. They felt better and all
because they didn't have the Internet on their phone, just
(13:34):
their phone. What do you think did you'd have to
use your computer? That's the only difference.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, So I'm taking the Internet off your phone, and
then all you got to do if you want the
Internet is you have to use it. It's a little
ait less convenient to use your computer, which means you're
probably going to use it less, which means your mental
health will improve.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Okay, let's try it, really, Yes.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
How long do you think this will last?
Speaker 2 (13:56):
To the next song?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Let's go on the honor system, have a computer in
front of you, I do. All I'm asking you is
do not look at the Internet on your phone for
any non work purpose until until until anytime, then tell
me when you did it.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
All of this is work. This isn't everything. I this
is not you know, I don't do this for me.
This is for everybody.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
You're a public services for the people. I tell her
one in my life the same thing. Oh, I had
to say that. I had to say.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Selfie is for the public.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I had to do that. They were in my area.
I had to do it. The entertainment report is next.
