Fred's show is on Friend's Biggest Stories of.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
The Day text at eight five five, five, nine, one
oh three five. I used to work in college admissions
and a prospective students applied with the email address sexual
Chocolate too good for you. It's something like, yes see,
that's what I'm talking about, or somebody else is in
they work in HR and like you wouldn't believe the
email addresses that people submit, like you get a hold
(00:24):
of me. I'm applying for that brain searching job. My
email address is you know, big Moodies. I like it,
you know, yeah right, I like big Booties and you
know me four one four two the job because you
had to have that one so badly that you accepted
four one four seven at the end of it or whatever.
It's because you know how like you'll you'll type in
(00:45):
your name or something for a user name and it
will be like, oh no, you can't have you can't
have Kiki. You gotta have Kiki eight two nine three
nine four. But you wanted it so badly that you
were willing to do that. One just rolls off the tongue.
I know there's probably more about this than the Entertainer Report,
but Al Kilmer, who played Bruce Wayne and Batman Forever.
He channeled Jim Morrison in Oliver Stones the Doors and
(01:07):
started Doc Holliday in Tombstone.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
He was in Top Gun, both Top Guns.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I believe he was in the second one too, wasn't
he because he like he made an appearance, he didn't speak.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I don't think in it. I believe he was in
the second one.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Yes, and they used something to like recreate his voice
or something of that because he had lost it.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yeah, they were filming, but he was in it like briefly,
but he was only sixty five years old.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
He passed away.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
He was only sixty five years old, which I guess
I thought maybe he was older, but no, because he
and Tom Cruiz would have been kind of in the
same generation, I guess. So anyway, that's very he said,
very young for sure. Now, this is a very long
and detailed thing, and I should probably have Jason Brown
dig into this as the sports reporter. But the NFL
has expanded replay assist, tweaked kickoffs and overtime, and has
(01:51):
tabled the tush push band. Oh what so there's a
band on the toush push Jason and what are your
thoughts as our VP of sports reporting, what are your
thoughts about the ban on the toush push? Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Dare they The toush push is pinnacle for the game
of football.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Pinnacle, Yeah it is. That makes Yeah, it's the pinnacle.
The pinnacle, Yeah it is.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
The pinnacle is at the pinnacle. The touch push pivotal,
it's pivotal.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Okay, So describe for everybody your interpretation of what the
tush push is if it's still legal and it's not
going to be banned.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Oh okay.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
So like after they do their little whatever they do
on the on the field and they come off and
they all spink each other, that's when they're doing the.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Tush See that's good. To going to ban that, No,
they can't.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
But this goes into the great detail about all these
different I don't know if you care about this, but
but babe, it's what I just said. Replay assists more replay.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
They're changing the kickoff rules, overtime rules, and the touch
push you can still do it, which, by the way,
is when if you're close to the goal line, the
quarterback would receive the ball or the running back whatever,
and then they the men stand behind them and push
them into the end zone. Other players helped them get in,
and there are some that argue that that shouldn't be allowed.
I oversimplified that. But and I'm not the sports guy.
(03:10):
You're the sports guy. Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to help
you out.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
We called this the tushy push on the sidelines when
we're spanking each other.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Oh, that's a whole different thing. That's a different weekend activity.
It's a different than they You know, I love true crime,
and I haven't heard about this one yet, but we
need to discuss. Okay, and this is tragedy, so we
didn't you know, let's not joke too much, but a
Hawaii doctor has been charged with attempted murder of his wife.
He was indicted on Friday by grand jury. In newly
(03:39):
released details, this dude's wife, who was alive, I guess
still didn't work, describe what happened during a Hawaiian hiking
trip that was supposed to be her birthday celebration. So
she says that her husband, the doctor, tried to get
her to take a selfie at the edge of a cliff. Now,
let's discuss that quickly. If we if we could just
(04:00):
take a moment. If I could just put my h
Keith Morris and Josh mecawinz you know, andrek hanning hat
on for a second.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
If you watch Dayline, then you know who jodshe Mega
Wins is like, so.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Yes, you'ld have go to the edge of a cliff,
but you're no good, right and j w Yeah, so
you could just get a divorce, but you didn't do that.
You decided to kill her, didn't you. That's Stateline NBC.
You could have gotten a divorce, but you did do that,
did you. You know who does a really good impression
of him is uh the guy who used to date
(04:33):
uh Anna Kendrick. He was a SNL. He does, Yes,
he does all of the Dayline. Well he does everybody,
but he does all of the Dayline people, and it's
so good. And the thing about the impressions that I
think people forget about sometimes is you have to be
able to do the voice and the mannerisms, and then
you have to have the cadence, and then you have
to say the things that they would say, like because
(04:54):
there are some people that do tromp for people to
do you know, these these like big personalities.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
And they can. Today's kind of like it. But it's like,
you know, but like hater will nail.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Like the stuff they say, the way they say it,
it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
So anyway, I guess, like had.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
They been in an argument that morning, like, I think
a lot of things, Like there are a lot of
things that would go into my decision on whether to
stand on the edge of a cliff and take a selfie.
First of all, why am I taking a selfie when
you're here? Why am I taking a picture without my
husband or wife? Why are you asking me to go
to the edge of a cliff? How are things going
in our relationship? Like are we not doing well? And
then you're like, go to the edge of a cliff
(05:31):
and take a picture because it's predictable what happens next.
He just kept telling her to step back further and
further and further.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Wait a minute, well, come on, she says.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
At first, I thought he was joking, but I quickly
realized that he was seriously trying to make me fall
off the cliff. She says that he then started beating
her in the head with a rock and then trying
to inject her with two syringes on the edge of
a cliff what as she fought him off and was
ultimately helped by a passer. By the couple's children, ages
two and before. We're back home with her family at
(06:03):
the time. But this dude's been indicted for attempted murder.
And I'm not saying that this woman did anything wrong.
I mean, she's the victim here. That being said, the
next time somebody asks you, you know, to go to
the edge of a cliff and take it selfie, and
they're standing there away from the cliff, you might ask yourself, why,
why why are we doing that?
Speaker 3 (06:24):
You know, no thoughts.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Listen, this is why you never go hiking with a man.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
That's the reason why.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Yeah, don't.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
That's why.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
That's why Kiki never goes hiking with a man, because
she's afraid of having to take it a cliff side selfie.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
This is right. This is why I don't go hiking
at all. Actually, I don't trust anybody on a hike.
Hiking and all the things we can be doing.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Are you getting invited to hikes often?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
We used to go hiking. I met grow up in Arizona.
We have mountains and hills and trails and stuff. We
used to go hiking. But it's like this second, it's like,
you gotta take water, you know, if you go hiking
in Arizona, you gotta take water. You know, you gotta
take you have like a nice hat, get have the
right shoes, the right gear. And then it's like and
be sure and brings something to kill the snakes. I'm like,
what exactly? And it's not uncommon you go hiking and
(07:09):
just be a snake and they just you know, in
the sun, just warming up, just hanging out in the
middle of the thing. And it's like, you know, they're
they're they're meant to blend in. So it's also something
where you could you could easily walk up on one
and get too close, and I realized you did it.
But I'm thinking, what, how is this enjoyable? Like I'm
out here looking left and right making sure that I
don't get eating my diamondback, you know, and I gotta
(07:29):
I gotta have like a gun, you know, to kill
off wild coyotes and wolves and hyenas and stuff. It's
like this sounds a little bit more like Hunger Games,
and it does like a nice Saturday afternoon date.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
Thank you?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Why do this?
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Like if you're somewhere where you're there's a high probability
that you're gonna be eating You probably shouldn't be there,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
And I can't reason with a snake, as you know,
So that was not gonna work.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Remember your friend made you go hiking in vans.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
This guy's right, shout out to Tim Richards. Yeah, this guy,
he's trying to help our competitors. Now you want to
tell you something. I know that he's trying to help
our competitors. It's not working. But I well, because they're
paying him to because he's a genius. But even a
genius can't say that. But let me tell you something.
(08:15):
But let me tell you something. I'm starting to wonder
if what he was doing was not very similar to
what was happening. Here were the cliffs. There were cliffs.
Wait a minute, don't take me anywhere.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
With the cliff.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
One second. Wait one second, This is exactly what was happening.
So my friend Tim is a he's a pilot, and
he lives in Arizona, and he's been a mentor and
a friend to me my entire career. And he says,
you know, I want to go flying when you're in Arizona.
So I took him flying and we went to Sedona.
Arizona has a very beautiful airport. If you've been there,
Red Rocks a beautiful place. And and he goes, hey,
(08:50):
you know, there's a hike around the airport. It say
surround the airport because the airport's on a mesa. You know,
it's it's a mesa. It's like a mountain with a
tabletop on the It means table in Spanish.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
But have you ever seen a mountain.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That has like a flat top, like a plateau kind
of It's it's like a mountain that looks like they
saw the top off it. So it's like a mountain,
but it's flat at the top. And they put the
airport on top of that.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Cool. It's very cool.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
It looks like kind of like an aircraft carrier when
you're landing in there. Very challenging. It's cool. So we
go in there and he's like, they got this hike
and it was a beautiful day. I'm like, let's go
on a hike. You know, I go, what kind of
hike is it? Because I'm wearing you know, my typical
you know, slender jeans and vans, and he goes, no, no, no,
it's just like it's basically like a sidewalk around there there,
like no we deal. I'm like, oh ye a sidewalk,
I can do that. It's a nice day. We don't
(09:34):
have any water, we don't have any sunny. So we
go out. I'm wearing a sweatshirt. It's like eighty whatever.
So we go out there and we're walking and I'm like,
it's pretty rocky and we're going down. And you know,
anytime you're going down on a hike, if actually you
got to go back up, and I'm going it's even
if you turn around, you got to go back. I'm like,
what are we? What are we doing? So we walk
for like four hours? What and so oh my god?
(09:58):
But literally I literally, okay, if you've ever worn vans before,
like the slide ons where my toes were had holes
in them by the end of it, for like cause
you know, if you put pressure on your like trying
to stay on the side of this cliff that we
were on, you know. And so after like it wasn't
four hours, it was like three. But after like so
(10:19):
we get to the day and I go, I go,
and so at this point, we're like fully committed. I mean,
I couldn't used some ropes and like, you know, carabineers
or something. I don't know what I needed, but I
needed a lot of things. And I'm like, hey, where
And then it's like, I know, we have to go
back up. At some point, I'm like where are we?
And he's like looking at a trail on his app
like on a phone. He's like, oh, I misread this.
(10:41):
We're only halfway. It's like another three miles. We should
probably just turn back. But now what I'm beginning to
wonder is was this man trying to kill me? Was
he essentially doing what this doctor was doing in the
side of the cliff? Yeah, Fred, Yeah, get a little
further back there. Take a selfie. I want to send
it to some people. Yeah, you want to send proof
(11:03):
of my death to some people. Yeah, that's what That's
exactly what this was. I was almost a victim of
the same thing. The only thing he didn't have we're syringes.
But I don't know that he didn't have him.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
He didn't check his pockets.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
I certainly didn't didn't have him with those jeans on,
you know, and those weren't syringes. That wasn't That wasn't
It wasn't a needle, Jason, really hope not. That is
something that no one ever, no man ever wants to
hear little skinny syringes in your pocket. Wow, tried to
(11:38):
kill me? This is crazy, unbelievable. I just came to
this conclusion and let me finish this up because we
were doing a news thing where I wait, how did
we I just how.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Did we get there?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Did the Hawaiian doctor and tried to kill the guy
on the cliff or killed his wife on the cliff?
And then now I find out I was the wife. Yes,
trying to kill me on the set of a cliff.
You want me to die? And then the competitor wins
because I'm dead, I guess, But guess what. I'll never
die because there's seven of us, So it's next man up.
You can push me off the mountain, and then they'll
just bring in some other guy named Fred, and then
(12:12):
it's you guys, and then the show continues to kill it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
We already have the imaging for Kailin in the morning,
we were already running it. We're airing.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
My understanding is they're developing an Ai voice of mine
right now. They don't want to pay me?
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Are you kidding me? I made tens of dollars an
hour that I want to pay me? Kidding you?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Pennsylvania woman is searching for a jacket that she donated
to charity after realizing that she left a two point
five million dollar lottery ticket in the pocket.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Her name is Mildred. Don't meet a lot of Mildred's.
She said.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
She purchased a ticket for a Pennsylvania Cash five drawing
at the Shopping Safe Store in Murraysville, Okay, in twenty
twenty four, and two weeks later, she was surprised to
learn that she'd matched all five numbers. She tried to
find the ticket, then she realized that she left it
in the pocket of a jacket that she donated to
the Vietnam Veterans of America. Later, she learned the charity
(13:02):
sends its donations out across the country and even overseas,
and there's no way to track them. The Pennsylvania Lottery
says that there's no way for her to claim the
prize without the physical ticket in hand, and it expires
on May eighth. So somebody probably has this jacket or
it's on its shelf somewhere or like hanging on a thing,
and who knows somewhere in the world and has no
idea that there's a ticket in there worth that much money.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Oh, we got to get this jacket. Yeah, we gotta
find this check. This is a movie in the making,
by the way, it is Tiffany Habits. I don't know why.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Starring Tiffany has And finally, I don't know what your
kids doing this morning, probably got cereal all over his
or her face or you know whatever. But there's a
gifted five year old boy who's been linked with Einstein
level IQ that has joined his sister as a member
of Mensa. Jesus, a New Jersey household just added another
(13:53):
MENSA member, a five year old.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Now, how do you like?
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Polly's four? How would we really know if she were
a genius? Okay, she's really smart, and I'm you know,
she's got into a really good she had to take
some sort of aptitude test and cognitive all this stuff
to get into a school. But I'm like, at four
years old, how do we know for sure? Okay, I
mean it, how do you test that? I mean?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Right, Like because it wouldn't be a four year old's
fault if they I don't want to talk about like
what you know, it's about how you learn and like
the speed at which you would have whatever, Like, I
don't know, they're four, but this kid is apparently a genius.
The little genius is crushing times tables. Well, I guess
that's how you know. Yeah, if a five year old
can do times tables, that would be a good sign.
(14:36):
I can't do times tables and now and I'm forty four,
So he's crushing times tables. His big sister, Declan, joined
MENSA last year. Their dad is a member as well.
Their mom went worm not actually in MENSA, but gets
credit for keeping their love of learning alive with her
creative lessons and a science packed message board at home.
Her secret letting the kids lead the way, making sure
(14:58):
learning is fun. You don't think that's ever going to
come up at some dinner, right, Dad, sister and brother
are all in MENSA and you're the dummy. You're just
really smart, but nothing smart as us. It's a Child
Help National Day of Hope, asking people to make a
lifelong commitment to joining the fight to end child abuseon
neglect National DIY Day, National Ferret Day, National Walking Day,
(15:21):
National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day, and National Reconciliation Day,
which is when I skip every single year.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
I don't bother with that. You know, no, you pissed
me off.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
You're done, which reminds me of the guy who tried
to push me off the cliff and kill me. This
is crazy. I honestly I could have been like this
lady Jim. He just didn't have the syringes.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I don't think
Fred's show is on Friend's Biggest Stories of.
Speaker 2 (00:03):

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Like the stuff they say, the way they say it,
it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
So anyway, I guess, like had.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
They been in an argument that morning, like, I think
a lot of things, Like there are a lot of
things that would go into my decision on whether to
stand on the edge of a cliff and take a selfie.
First of all, why am I taking a selfie when
you're here? Why am I taking a picture without my
husband or wife? Why are you asking me to go
to the edge of a cliff? How are things going
in our relationship? Like are we not doing well? And
then you're like, go to the edge of a cliff
(05:31):
and take a picture because it's predictable what happens next.
He just kept telling her to step back further and
further and further.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Wait a minute, well, come on, she says.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
At first, I thought he was joking, but I quickly
realized that he was seriously trying to make me fall
off the cliff. She says that he then started beating
her in the head with a rock and then trying
to inject her with two syringes on the edge of
a cliff what as she fought him off and was
ultimately helped by a passer. By the couple's children, ages
two and before. We're back home with her family at
(06:03):
the time. But this dude's been indicted for attempted murder.
And I'm not saying that this woman did anything wrong.
I mean, she's the victim here. That being said, the
next time somebody asks you, you know, to go to
the edge of a cliff and take it selfie, and
they're standing there away from the cliff, you might ask yourself, why,
why why are we doing that?
Speaker 3 (06:24):
You know, no thoughts.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Listen, this is why you never go hiking with a man.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
That's the reason why.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Yeah, don't.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
That's why.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
That's why Kiki never goes hiking with a man, because
she's afraid of having to take it a cliff side selfie.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
This is right. This is why I don't go hiking
at all. Actually, I don't trust anybody on a hike.
Hiking and all the things we can be doing.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Are you getting invited to hikes often?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
We used to go hiking. I met grow up in Arizona.
We have mountains and hills and trails and stuff. We
used to go hiking. But it's like this second, it's like,
you gotta take water, you know, if you go hiking
in Arizona, you gotta take water. You know, you gotta
take you have like a nice hat, get have the
right shoes, the right gear. And then it's like and
be sure and brings something to kill the snakes. I'm like,
what exactly? And it's not uncommon you go hiking and
(07:09):
just be a snake and they just you know, in
the sun, just warming up, just hanging out in the
middle of the thing. And it's like, you know, they're
they're they're meant to blend in. So it's also something
where you could you could easily walk up on one
and get too close, and I realized you did it.
But I'm thinking, what, how is this enjoyable? Like I'm
out here looking left and right making sure that I
don't get eating my diamondback, you know, and I gotta
(07:29):
I gotta have like a gun, you know, to kill
off wild coyotes and wolves and hyenas and stuff. It's
like this sounds a little bit more like Hunger Games,
and it does like a nice Saturday afternoon date.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
Thank you?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Why do this?
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Like if you're somewhere where you're there's a high probability
that you're gonna be eating You probably shouldn't be there,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
And I can't reason with a snake, as you know,
So that was not gonna work.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Remember your friend made you go hiking in vans.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
This guy's right, shout out to Tim Richards. Yeah, this guy,
he's trying to help our competitors. Now you want to
tell you something. I know that he's trying to help
our competitors. It's not working. But I well, because they're
paying him to because he's a genius. But even a
genius can't say that. But let me tell you something.
(08:15):
But let me tell you something. I'm starting to wonder
if what he was doing was not very similar to
what was happening. Here were the cliffs. There were cliffs.
Wait a minute, don't take me anywhere.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
With the cliff.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
One second. Wait one second, This is exactly what was happening.
So my friend Tim is a he's a pilot, and
he lives in Arizona, and he's been a mentor and
a friend to me my entire career. And he says,
you know, I want to go flying when you're in Arizona.
So I took him flying and we went to Sedona.
Arizona has a very beautiful airport. If you've been there,
Red Rocks a beautiful place. And and he goes, hey,
(08:50):
you know, there's a hike around the airport. It say
surround the airport because the airport's on a mesa. You know,
it's it's a mesa. It's like a mountain with a
tabletop on the It means table in Spanish.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
But have you ever seen a mountain.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That has like a flat top, like a plateau kind
of It's it's like a mountain that looks like they
saw the top off it. So it's like a mountain,
but it's flat at the top. And they put the
airport on top of that.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Cool. It's very cool.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
It looks like kind of like an aircraft carrier when
you're landing in there. Very challenging. It's cool. So we
go in there and he's like, they got this hike
and it was a beautiful day. I'm like, let's go
on a hike. You know, I go, what kind of
hike is it? Because I'm wearing you know, my typical
you know, slender jeans and vans, and he goes, no, no, no,
it's just like it's basically like a sidewalk around there there,
like no we deal. I'm like, oh ye a sidewalk,
I can do that. It's a nice day. We don't
(09:34):
have any water, we don't have any sunny. So we
go out. I'm wearing a sweatshirt. It's like eighty whatever.
So we go out there and we're walking and I'm like,
it's pretty rocky and we're going down. And you know,
anytime you're going down on a hike, if actually you
got to go back up, and I'm going it's even
if you turn around, you got to go back. I'm like,
what are we? What are we doing? So we walk
for like four hours? What and so oh my god?
(09:58):
But literally I literally, okay, if you've ever worn vans before,
like the slide ons where my toes were had holes
in them by the end of it, for like cause
you know, if you put pressure on your like trying
to stay on the side of this cliff that we
were on, you know. And so after like it wasn't
four hours, it was like three. But after like so
(10:19):
we get to the day and I go, I go,
and so at this point, we're like fully committed. I mean,
I couldn't used some ropes and like, you know, carabineers
or something. I don't know what I needed, but I
needed a lot of things. And I'm like, hey, where
And then it's like, I know, we have to go
back up. At some point, I'm like where are we?
And he's like looking at a trail on his app
like on a phone. He's like, oh, I misread this.
(10:41):
We're only halfway. It's like another three miles. We should
probably just turn back. But now what I'm beginning to
wonder is was this man trying to kill me? Was
he essentially doing what this doctor was doing in the
side of the cliff? Yeah, Fred, Yeah, get a little
further back there. Take a selfie. I want to send
it to some people. Yeah, you want to send proof
(11:03):
of my death to some people. Yeah, that's what That's
exactly what this was. I was almost a victim of
the same thing. The only thing he didn't have we're syringes.
But I don't know that he didn't have him.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
He didn't check his pockets.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
I certainly didn't didn't have him with those jeans on,
you know, and those weren't syringes. That wasn't That wasn't
It wasn't a needle, Jason, really hope not. That is
something that no one ever, no man ever wants to
hear little skinny syringes in your pocket. Wow, tried to
(11:38):
kill me? This is crazy, unbelievable. I just came to
this conclusion and let me finish this up because we
were doing a news thing where I wait, how did
we I just how.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Did we get there?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Did the Hawaiian doctor and tried to kill the guy
on the cliff or killed his wife on the cliff?
And then now I find out I was the wife. Yes,
trying to kill me on the set of a cliff.
You want me to die? And then the competitor wins
because I'm dead, I guess, But guess what. I'll never
die because there's seven of us, So it's next man up.
You can push me off the mountain, and then they'll
just bring in some other guy named Fred, and then
(12:12):
it's you guys, and then the show continues to kill it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
We already have the imaging for Kailin in the morning,
we were already running it. We're airing.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
My understanding is they're developing an Ai voice of mine
right now. They don't want to pay me?
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Are you kidding me? I made tens of dollars an
hour that I want to pay me? Kidding you?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Pennsylvania woman is searching for a jacket that she donated
to charity after realizing that she left a two point
five million dollar lottery ticket in the pocket.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Her name is Mildred. Don't meet a lot of Mildred's.
She said.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
She purchased a ticket for a Pennsylvania Cash five drawing
at the Shopping Safe Store in Murraysville, Okay, in twenty
twenty four, and two weeks later, she was surprised to
learn that she'd matched all five numbers. She tried to
find the ticket, then she realized that she left it
in the pocket of a jacket that she donated to
the Vietnam Veterans of America. Later, she learned the charity
(13:02):
sends its donations out across the country and even overseas,
and there's no way to track them. The Pennsylvania Lottery
says that there's no way for her to claim the
prize without the physical ticket in hand, and it expires
on May eighth. So somebody probably has this jacket or
it's on its shelf somewhere or like hanging on a thing,
and who knows somewhere in the world and has no
idea that there's a ticket in there worth that much money.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Oh, we got to get this jacket. Yeah, we gotta
find this check. This is a movie in the making,
by the way, it is Tiffany Habits. I don't know why.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Starring Tiffany has And finally, I don't know what your
kids doing this morning, probably got cereal all over his
or her face or you know whatever. But there's a
gifted five year old boy who's been linked with Einstein
level IQ that has joined his sister as a member
of Mensa. Jesus, a New Jersey household just added another
(13:53):
MENSA member, a five year old.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Now, how do you like?
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Polly's four? How would we really know if she were
a genius? Okay, she's really smart, and I'm you know,
she's got into a really good she had to take
some sort of aptitude test and cognitive all this stuff
to get into a school. But I'm like, at four
years old, how do we know for sure? Okay, I
mean it, how do you test that? I mean?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Right, Like because it wouldn't be a four year old's
fault if they I don't want to talk about like
what you know, it's about how you learn and like
the speed at which you would have whatever, Like, I
don't know, they're four, but this kid is apparently a genius.
The little genius is crushing times tables. Well, I guess
that's how you know. Yeah, if a five year old
can do times tables, that would be a good sign.
(14:36):
I can't do times tables and now and I'm forty four,
So he's crushing times tables. His big sister, Declan, joined
MENSA last year. Their dad is a member as well.
Their mom went worm not actually in MENSA, but gets
credit for keeping their love of learning alive with her
creative lessons and a science packed message board at home.
Her secret letting the kids lead the way, making sure
(14:58):
learning is fun. You don't think that's ever going to
come up at some dinner, right, Dad, sister and brother
are all in MENSA and you're the dummy. You're just
really smart, but nothing smart as us. It's a Child
Help National Day of Hope, asking people to make a
lifelong commitment to joining the fight to end child abuseon
neglect National DIY Day, National Ferret Day, National Walking Day,
(15:21):
National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day, and National Reconciliation Day,
which is when I skip every single year.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
I don't bother with that. You know, no, you pissed
me off.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
You're done, which reminds me of the guy who tried
to push me off the cliff and kill me. This
is crazy. I honestly I could have been like this
lady Jim. He just didn't have the syringes.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I don't think
