Speaker 1 (00:00):
Me especially ended jam in Morning show with DJ Foreign
and Sauti.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
When you need to know, we got you three things
you need to Know on Boston's number one for hip
hop and the best throwbags.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
You Haven't anymore Vive.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Thursday, December fifth, and United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson was
his photo everywhere yesterday. Video of him being shot and
killed on the streets of Manhattan after a United Healthcare
conference just you couldn't escape it. Yesterday was everywhere and

(00:36):
it's so chilling to watch because the shooter, who by
the way, is still on the run, looked like he
had done this before. He was giving military he you know,
his gun jammed at one point and just the way
he very swiftly fixed the gun, didn't panic, never ran

(00:57):
it just again gave me somebody who's been there before.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
I can't wait to find out. And I hate to
say it like that, what's the story behind it? What's
the reasoning for it?

Speaker 2 (01:07):
You know? Right, So to set the scene for everybody,
United Healthcare is having their big conference, holiday party, all
of the things they're in Manhattan. He was walking to
a hotel from the conference and it was very clear
that the shooter knew not only where he would be,
but to down to like what door he would be

(01:27):
coming out of. You know. Obviously, investigators say that the
attack was targeted. There's a lot of theories online right
now that it was a possible grudge against the insurance
company as a whole, because on the bullet casings they
found words like deny, defend, and depose.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Which is so random and crazy. Right, if you're a
professional hit man, you don't really want to leave a trace,
But that to me tells me that you wanted to
make a statement.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Yeah, I don't think he was a hit man. I
think I kind of leaned to that theory. It was
probably somebody who got denied some medical and it had
to do pay a ton.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Maybe they lost somebody because they couldn't afford something.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
In that in that realm. Yeah, and he was just
like now I'm done with this, Like the medical system
out here is crazy.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Shot him in the calf and then in the chest.
He was pronounced dead at the hospital. The shooter gets
on an e bike drives to Central Park. Santi said
this last hour could be true. Maybe he had a
bag stashed somewhere, changed clothes and hit the road.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
We don't know. As of this morning. The only lead
that there is is some internet sleuth found out that
you can track the e bikes individually and maybe found
an address linked to that specific bike. But investigators are
offering you ten thousand dollars reward for anybody that has
any information leading to him. The masked gunman, who, by
the way, was at Starbucks before the shooting in a mask.

(02:46):
They have camera footage of that, but it's just hard
to make out his face.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
I also, somebody must have pay with cash too, because
you're not paying with a credit card there.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
You would think so. Brian Thompson left behind a wife
and two kids. They live in Minnesota. His wife was
asked about this. I don't know how they got her
already in an interview, but she basically was like, I
I yes, I feel like he has been threatened at
some point in time, but I have two sons to
go take care of who don't have their dad. So
obviously an awful situation. As I get more info, keep

(03:14):
you posted. But this is like a legit movie. It's
very strange.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Documentary is going to be I hate saying it like
this again.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
It's incredible no, it will be so as soon as
we get more details, I will keep you posted. People
magazine has officially picked the best album, so they believe
of twenty twenty four. I don't think this will shock anybody.
It is Beyonce's Cowboy Carter coming to number two Charlie
XCX Bratt. That's the whole Brat Summer thing. Still don't get.

(03:43):
Number three is the Brina Carpenter with short and Sweet.
Four Taylor Swift the Tortured Poets Department, and number five
Casey muskgraves deeper. Well, he loves Casey Musker.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
And she has a little bit like of an attitude too.
She has a flatter her that I like.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Flair, he says. All right, lastly, this one just blew
my mind, so I have to tell you guys about it.
I think anybody who hasn't heard this story would guess
that if you were on an episode of Saturday Night
Night Live, that you were making hundreds of thousands of
dollars right like you're on SNL, one of the longest standing,

(04:20):
most biggest important shows for comedians and actors and artists. You,
as an artist, you get to be on Saturday Night Live.
You feel like you've made it, you know. For a
video for New York Magazine, they rounded up a bunch
of people that have been on SNL and they asked
them what their biggest splurge was after their first SNL paycheck.

(04:42):
Pete Davidson is up first, and his answer blew my mind.
My biggest indulgence after my first SNL paycheck.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
If you guys know what they pay us, it's like
three grand an episode.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
I think I got dinner.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
We bought the most uncomfortable west Elm couch of all time.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
I swear to god, it's like bricks. I bought a
pair of shoes that were out of my budget. I'm
going to tell you they were seventy five dollars. I
bought a Cashmere sweater. It was like three hundred dollars.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Mattress, a nice mattress, A coach.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
I have gotten it reupholstered three or four times. I
never remember a designer coming over in tiers are. He goes, Okay,
those arms are too high. We have to get We're
going to get rid of that couch that said, oh no, no,
you're not not today, Satan, No, we're the couch is
staying you're going.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
I went to like a crighton Barrel and I got
like a really big couch, and then I went to
a best Buy and I got a really big TV.
Going to sacks across the streets, buying a pair of
goo cheese shoes, the kind that everyone got and the
kind that I wouldn't feel super cool wearing out.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Now, probably getting an apartment. I mean, that's so boring.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
But that's the real thing. Well, I mean, you don't
make enough money to make big purchases, so I think
New York rent was probably the biggest purchase I made
after writing my first year on US. Now, Pete Davidson
said three thousand dollars he was making, meaning he just
he's like, swurds, what are you talking about? We meane nothing,
I got dinner.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Now, Like, I understand that it's a launching point and
you can like do a bunch of stuff like after that.
But when you're on the show, you can't do comedy
shows because you're constantly writing in yeah, pitch, That's what I.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Was about to say, three thousand dollars an episode. You
think it's just on Saturday Night. I got three grand
and that's all I gotta do. Now, you got to
show up on Sunday all right after the show on
Saturday and write and.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
Sketch him and during the week.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
That's what I'm saying. So from the Saturday night when
it closes off, all the way to the next Saturday,
you in there just where you heard saying.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
And if that's true, three thousand episodes, we're talking like
fifty four to sixty six thousand dollars to survive in
New York you can't. You can.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
So the cast have friends. At the very end, they're
each making a million dollars in episodes, which was a
lot that was at the end in like the early
two thousands. The fact that they're making three thousand dollars
in the same network is crazy to me. For a
big head shine show.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Yeah show yeah, like like like a show that again
and if you're an artist or an actor you get
to do SNL and is a massive deal for your career.
Absolutely weird, weird, But you know what, the Super Bowl
they don't pay for that either, super bowlftime shows.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
I guess, yeah, but that's what But that's the one
time thing though right now I'm.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Just saying that is three things you need to know

Tour will kick off in April and they will come
to Fox Barrow on May the twelfth. Phones are already
