Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, let's get it started. Hump Day is here
and we are ready to rock and roll. I mean
I am. I think I think the team is ready
to rock and roll. We've got the full crew in
the house today coffee. That is me, Scott fits Jared
alongside John Alden he's here, the company man himself and
John Shannon's back. So again I spoke for you guys,
is if you're ready, But you're already right. It's midweek, bro,
it's hump day, It's day week man.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
We're coming to the end another big weekend upon us.
And I think you know you were. We were talking
earlier this week about the weather and how warm it's
going to get.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
It got warmer, but it got warmer.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
But you know what, when you still walk out in
the morning, it feels comfortable because there's no humidity.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Yes, and that is that. That is what I enjoyed
hearing this morning from Matt Melosovich that we are going
to get a little warmer later this week to where
we'll be above I guess the average, however, humidity going
to be almost non existent, which can make the world
of a difference. But yesterday I was at my son's
my son's flag football practice, and I realized, you know what,
(00:56):
heats back. But again it was you know, we're talking
six pm, So despite it being in the eighties, it
was still still you know, we were in the shade,
and it just felt beautiful outside. So I think I'm
making an adjustment here as I as I get older,
because usually i'm I'm I'm ready for and I am
ready for the brutal stretch of the summer heat to
(01:17):
be over. But I don't know if I'm ready for,
like it to get dark outside earlier things like that,
because and again I'm usually somebody who is I swear
I'm some people would say that I've got issues because
I actually, for the most part, I found myself a
little bit more. I guess content whenever it's cold and
it does get dark at six o'clock, and I don't know.
Now I'm like, yeah, I don't I'm not ready for that.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Just maybe it's because you get up at three in
the morning. Now it's probably darkness all the.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Time, that's true, Yeah, because you know, I won't really
have a whole once we get there, I won't really
have a whole lot of daylight, right.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
I think last night was our last night or the
night before was the last night? We'll see the sunset
after eight o'clock.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
That is correct, Okay, I saw that so last night.
If you were if you were enjoying some sunlight post
eight pm, just no, that was it. From here, it
won't be happening, which again, that is kind of a bummer.
And look, seasonal depression is a real thing. I always
think using the word depression is it's overused quite a bit,
but I mean it's true. There are people who without sunlight,
(02:20):
and I guess just maybe pleasant temperatures, it just changes
sort of the state of mind. I mean, there's we
don't deal with it here, but there are places, and
I believe Alaska doesn't get daylight for a certain stretch
of the year. I don't believe it's for an extensive
amount of time, but I mean there's real proof that
that is not a healthy environment for folks. So I
get it. Whenever we get to the colder temperatures, and
(02:42):
again five point forty five, it's nighttime outside. It's not
a good time for a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
But oh, when we lived in San Diego, my brother
and I used to come home and believe it or not,
because seventy five and sunny sounds great, and we use
that term a lot here, especially derby time. But we
used to have to come home because we missed the
change of seasons.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Because in San Diego it is a weather paradise. It's
absolutely beautiful. Seeing to your point, that makes total sense.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, and I can understand. I kind of like it
because we get up so early. I kind of like
it getting dark earlier. It's easier for me to get
to sleep sometimes at night, and there's a bit of
coziness that comes with fall.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yes, there's something about cold weather. I don't know if
it's more I don't know if it's dark outside being
a big factor, but like whenever there's a chill type
of and I don't mean like cold temperatures, I mean
but just like a relaxing thing, because I think what
it is is because when it's cold and it's dark
outside and it's six thirty, you just kind of feel
like you're not missing out on anything. So you're content
(03:39):
to just kind of sit around and I guess kind
of be lazy.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah, And so you settle in for the night and
then you appreciate when it like after December twenty. First,
when it starts getting lighter every day, then then you
appreciate when the spring rolls around.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, it always reminds me that there's a certain time
in I guess between about I don't know, five five
thirty to about seven pm, whenever it's it's done. I mean,
you could wake up from a nap and have to realize, Okay,
is it is it time to get up and start
the day or did I fall asleep? And is it
is it almost dinner time. I've had a couple. I
(04:15):
haven't had it happen at as an adult, but as
a kid, I would wake up after and after school
nap sometimes and my mom and sister would be in
the kitchen. Mom would still have her work clothes on
she just got home. I don't remember, but I would
just assume, Okay, they're getting ready for school today and work,
so I'm gonna go get ready, and I would I
would go get the shower. I would just go through
(04:36):
the motions and I'd get my backpack and I'd come
out there they're sitting at the table for dinner, and
I'm like, oh, well, guess I guess I realized it
wasn't It wasn't five forty five am. It was five
forty five, But it was such a relief to know
that I don't have to go to school at that time,
right right? Have you all, I mean, you've been doing
this a lot longer than I have Scott as far
as just this schedule, John, you as well, although it's
a little bit a little bit newer for you than Scott. Obviously.
(04:56):
Have you all had weekends or days off where you
wake up in a panic? That's starting to happen to me.
My wife's not happy with it because I jump up
out of bed at five point forty five or sometimes
like six fifteen on a on a Saturday or a Sunday,
and I'm full panic mode running around and it's starting
to annoy my wife. She's like, it's it's Saturday. Yes,
(05:17):
But I had this fear of you know, because it's
I'll tell you this.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I panicked one time when I got a phone call
from Tony Cruz at four fifty eight in the morning
and I hadn't left my bed.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yet, but I was picking me up one morning. That
was a good pan I mean, that was a good thing.
He called.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yes, it's I mean, thankfully Scott was here, but it
saved me from being late all the way through the morning.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I hate that.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
It's wild how the relief of like, because panic sets
in for maybe thirty seconds and then I mean then
I realized, oh what a.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Relief, and then and then the worst part is that,
like Will Clark used to actually race into work, I figure,
at least at this point if I'm late, Okay, I'm late,
all right, I'll get there. You know, five or ten
minutes isn't going to make a difference. Will Clark used
to go all indy five hundred on the way in.
I'm like, dude, be careful.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Does not surprise me, That's right, John. All right, guys,
let's have a hump day, shall we. We've got trafficking
weather updates coming up right here right now, We've got
another sports with We've got a sports update coming up
with you in about fifteen minutes, and John has the
news around five thirty. So let's get it started, shall we.
It is Kentucky and this morning News Coffee and Company
with the euro News Radio eight forty whas we're just
(06:24):
a few seconds away from five to sixteen. I could
have been a liar and told you that it was
five fifteen. But then when I would have said that
by the time you heard it because of this thing
called a delay, I would have been lying to you.
So it is five sixteen now, and I appreciate you
guys hanging out with us getting your Wednesday started here
on news Radio eight forty whas. So today's the big
day for Apple. They they are unveiling the latest when
(06:46):
it comes to everything they have to offer products, whether
it be iPhone air pods, the Apple Watch. They're gonna
have iOS twenty six launching launching Monday. And I'm not
sure if it's because I'm paying more attention to it
or it's just because you know, it's a competitive business
in the tech world, but I do feel like there's
more talk about Apple's release here than we've had in
(07:08):
previous releases. Now, if you're not an Apple user, then
I'm sure you don't care. But if you're an Apple snob,
maybe I shouldn't call people that. But there are Apple
snobs out there, John Olden, you can attest to this
as somebody who's a proud Android guy. Apple snobs they
just assumed that anything that's not Apple, that's just it
must be for the pores. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I mean I've seen I remember I vividly remember somebody
posting on Twitter a while back that they were embarrassed
to have to ask to you somebody's Android charger because
Apple recently moved to the USBC chargers at androids you
used for.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Quite a while.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
The newer iPhones have the USBC compared to the older ones,
and so they were embar staff to ask for an Android.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I think that's faded a little bit, just because I
think everybody's well aware now yes you can do whatever
you want, I mean on either device, but the USB.
I mean, I feel like there's been more when it
comes to super competitive I guess battles like Android and Apple,
as far as iOS systems. I mean again, PEPSI Coke,
(08:07):
that kind of thing. You will see. Okay, well, if
they've done this, we're gonna do it as well. And
yes we're copying, but we're gonna do it better. Like
whenever you're you're the two dominant forces in a certain industry,
which these two are, Like you see, like Apple going
to USBC, they probably realized, oh yeah, that's probably the
right way to do it. I can get a faster
charge with my with my hardware by using this connection.
(08:28):
They'd never admit that they're copying. But that's that's that's
what you do. That's when it comes that that's that's
really pretty common when it comes to super competitive things.
But the I, the Apple iPhones seventeen and seventeen Pro,
those are the newest actual phones. They're they're expected to
be ultra thin. That that, of course is the uh
is the real cell here is that you're gonna get
(08:48):
the latest and greatest when it comes to tech. But
this is gonna be a little bit more sleek.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
The air Pods Pro. These are the AirPods Pro three.
These are new and they've got a new design and fit,
and they have improved active noise cancelation. But the big
difference here is there's live translation features that allow users
to hear conversations in different languages directly in their ear. Now,
this is not super unique to Apple, because in fact,
(09:16):
there are products already that exist where you can do this.
We actually talked about it a few months ago. Where
you can get you can get these headphones that have
if you can get them connected to to something Wi
Fi data, it can pick up conversations that others are
having in your in your headphones, and it can translate
it for you, which is really, I think, really useful.
I think that's uh. I mean, I can't think of
(09:38):
any time where I would use it in a normal
in a regular situation, but if you're traveling abroad, it
could it could really help as far as just understanding,
they'll you know, being able to make up for the
you know, the the No, there's no loss in translation.
I'm sure there would be some things that still wouldn't
sound right, like, I'm sure it's not a full proof
thing to where you're gonna get everything in the in
(09:58):
the language that you that you're fluent in, and I
mean the context can be stretched in a lot of
different ways depending upon which language is we're talking about.
But yeah, today is the big Apple Day, and I'm
I'm an Apple user, But I have no plans to
purchase anything new. Uh, although if if I'm not interested
as much in the live translation for the air pods,
(10:20):
but the active noise cancelation, would would would definitely uh,
if it is in fact a big boost, I would
I would maybe look into buying those at some point,
Probably not now because they're going to be too expensive.
But uh, the air pods I have now, which I use,
they're great. They don't I don't like that. For example,
when I run on the treadmill and I use them,
like I hear too much of the loud treadmill. I
(10:40):
hear too much of the gym noise. I don't need
complete noise cancelation. But the ones I have now, the
air pods, I like them. But that's the one complain
is that you just don't get as much noise cancelation
as as i'd like. Yeah, John, you you came in
here when I started talking Apple. You're the enje Are
you here to talk crap about Apple? No?
Speaker 5 (10:59):
I was just I was just going to say the
one of the things the reason why Apple had to
switch to USBC with the chargers. They were perfectly happy
with the lightning connectors and had a whole ecosystem around those.
The European Union forced Apple really to switch to them
in Europe because they said it was unfair to consumers
over there to have to buy a different type of
(11:20):
cable than what was more commonly used over there. Androids
is a little more common and popular phone over there,
and they've all gone USBC, so the EU ruled Apple
had to switch over there. So Apple just had to
do it all over. I'm looking forward to seeing what
the phones are like.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I mean, if had they had they decided, no, we're
not going to do it, really wouldn't have surprised me,
just known how Apple has has been historically. But again
they would they would clearly be less attractive to many
people in Europe, which would be a bad business decision, right.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
Right, And and so now they've had to switch all
their phones, switch to the designs to to a more
universal plug in, which is USBC. It comes in handy
with me and my wife if she needs a cable
I don't have upstairs and find her lightning cable I can.
I can plug in USBC.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
But in a lot of things when it comes to tech,
now are USBC driven? The lightning was just a specifical,
a specific Apple thing. There's nothing else. Did we connect
that way? No? And that's just I feel like that's
just how they For a long time, it felt like
Apple's going to do whatever, and you'll just have to
conform to it because it's Apple. And I think now
they don't.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
I mean, that's still a lot of their mindset with
things with their with their operating system and with their computers.
But I'm looking forward to the to the iOS twenty six.
They've jumped it ahead to make it current with the
with the upcoming year instead of going to like iOS
eighteen or nineteen. But I've got to learn it anyway,
because my wife is still an Apple iPhone user. So
when this new ICE operating system drops on her phone
(12:35):
and I'm going to start hearing, what is this?
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Why is this doing this? You'll like to get her
caught up. Yeah, I got to get her caught.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
Up, and I get I got to stay current myself.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Good stuff. All right, let's get to a quick update
of trafficking. Whether we've got sports updates on the way
from Scott Fitzgerald right here on his radio forty whas.
Thank you very much, John, just a day away from
Bourbon and beyond. We'll talk a little bit more about
that later on, because I do think there are some
folks that may not realize there have been some changes
as far as just the layout, but exciting stuff. I
(13:04):
don't have fomo. I've kind of grown out of that
as far as you know, feeling like Hey, I wish
I could have the same joy and excitement for something
that others have, because it's nice to see people excited
about going to a big event or just about anything really.
But I'm happy for those that are going to enjoy
it and now know that it really just isn't It
isn't my thing. But yesterday I did notice some folks
(13:25):
downtown Louisville. They may be here for other reasons. They
may be here because of a business trip or whatever
it may be, but they may be here making it
a week in Louisville. Right they're here for the festival,
but they're just going to take in what Louisville has
to offer. And if that's the case, I hope that
those doing that are enjoying themselves.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
All right.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
So we talked yesterday about the driver's license situation where
clearly a lot of leaders in their communities throughout the state,
of the local level, the county level, they're pushing to
go back to the way it used to be with
driver's license, and obviously the leaders at the state level,
but sheer they claim that that just really isn't doable
because of how long it would take to go back.
(14:02):
But I will say, I've got some good news for you.
There's going to be a new driver's license office opening.
In fact, I think it is open now. It is
in Bargetown, Kentucky. It's a new permanent driver's license office,
and it's offering the improved technology and convenience for residents,
which I guess that's the way they're billing it. But
as far as convenience, that'd be the last word I
would use when it comes to people sharing their experiences
(14:23):
when it comes to getting a driver's license made or
a real ID. So this is going to be next
to the Nelson County Justice Center, and I'll be honest
with you, just from the stories that I've heard for
a while now, Bargetown may not be a place you
really ever get to. It may not be that close
to you, but it might be the easiest way for
you to get one if it's taken a long time
(14:45):
to get an appointment closer to you, if you're in Louisville.
But it'll be next to the Nelson County Justice Center,
and it replaces a temporary office that opened in July
of last year. So the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says the
new facility includes updated technology to speed up the services.
Monday through Friday eight am to four pm are going
to be the hours, and they do welcome walkins, but
(15:05):
appointments are encouraged for for faster service. So who knows,
maybe maybe that would that'll speed some things up for
folks that need to go get a driver's license made now,
it is worth mentioning that they do not offer driver testing,
so you can't go get your license there as far
as passing your driver's test, but as far as just
going and I guess getting it renewed, or maybe you've
(15:26):
lost yours need to get it done, or you need
a real ID. I mean Bartetown is again it's not
that close for a lot of people, but I've heard
stories of people having to drive two hours away. And
even if you do end up getting an appointment, it's
not convenient, like it shouldn't. You shouldn't have to do
that in order to just go get your driver's license updated.
So I don't I have no clue as far as
(15:47):
the light at the end of the tunnel here, because
you got to keep in mind this has been an
issue for a long time now, and you throw in
the whole controversy surrounding these state workers that worked the
driver's office have worked at helping getting people's driver's license
either renewed or made in general. And you've got some
(16:08):
of these folks that were selling driver's license under the
table to people illegally, and that's a whole other can
of worms that just didn't a good look overall. All right,
real quick, I want to talk to you guys about
something that is really awesome. It's the second time this
is happening, and I don't know if a lot of
people are aware that your pets can donate blood. So
the Jefferson Animal Hospital in the American Red Cross, they're
(16:29):
teaming up to help folks not only come and donate
blood themselves, but also let them learn about the process
of pet blood donation. So this is something special for
you and your pet. And it's going to be Saturday,
September twenty seventh, and it is the Jefferson Animal Hospital
and Regional Emergency Center on outer Loop. It is the
(16:50):
Pintes for Paws and people. So it's a one of
a kind type of event and you can roll up
your sleeves and give blood to the American Red Cross
while your dog or cat and then donate blood as
a pet blood donor. And this to me is something
that I'd never again, out of sight, out of mind, right,
I never thought about pets donating blood, but it is
(17:11):
a thing, it's needed, and every pet blood donation can
save up to four to six lives of other pets,
which is incredible. So you can come out, bring your
whole family. They're gonna have great food on hand. You
can chat with experts at the JEFFERSONIM Hospital about the
life saving impact of pet blood donations. They can also
put you at ease if the thought of your dog
or cat donating blood, maybe you don't know the process,
(17:34):
and you don't you don't feel comfortable because it's your
fur baby, and you just you're worried. They'll put you
at ease and let you know how how routine the
process is and also let you know just how important
it is that we do have pets that donate blood.
So again, JEFFERSONIM Hospital they even serving the Looiveral community
for forty five years, open twenty four to seven, even
on holidays. They've got a doctor on site every day
of the year, every single night, including Christmas. So when
(17:54):
it comes to your pet self. You're in great hands
with the team of Jefferson in the hospital. And again
keep in mind September twenty seven is the big event
at the outer Loop location. You can learn more at
pet bloodbank dot com or give them a call. Five
O two nine hundred pets. Again, that's Bibo two nine
hundred pets. Don't miss a chance to save lives and
of course celebrate these pets that we love. Really really
important stuff and who would want to do their part
(18:16):
to help save the lives of pets. So again, big
big thanks to our friends over there at the Jefferson
Animal Hospital for partnering with us and hopefully they get
a good turnout. All right, let's get an update of
traffic and weather, shall we. We've got Rody O'Neal NBC
News set to join us on the other side. It's
a Wednesday. We were rolling along here on News Radio
eight forty wajs. Happy hump days to you. It is
Kentucky and this morning news coffee and company with you
(18:38):
on news radio eight forty whas and we have Rory
O'Neil of NBC News joining us here. It's a big
day for Apple. Rory they've got a lot of new
toys they're going to make available for folks, including a
new iOS that'll be out next week. What can you
tell us about about this this latest for Apple. It
seems as if there's a little bit more, a little
more buzz around this one than than the previous updates
(18:58):
they've had.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Yeah, a little bit more. Now, are you team Samsung
or a team iPhone?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
On? Team iPhone?
Speaker 4 (19:05):
All right, I'm team Samsung. So all this is gibberish
to me. Okay, let's just put that out there.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
There's a real divide. There's a real divide people stick with,
you know's there's some loyalty to those two things, Android
and iOS. People like what they like. They're uncomfortable with
the other.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Right, there are those of us who are right and
everybody else. Yeah, the iPhone Air is kept being released,
and that's really what's getting all the buzz. It's so thin.
Five point six millimeters thick. That's essentially about the size
of a pencil eraser. That's the thickness of the phone. Now,
there will be some parts that bulge out to accommodate
(19:40):
some of the processors and some of the camera lenses,
but the iPhone Air starts at one thousand dollars and
it will launch on September nineteenth. I think they'll start
taking orders this Friday. And the iPhone seventeen Pro similar
camera bump as the Air, I guess they'll call it,
but it's also got a more durable surround. I'm a
shield on it. The I seventeen Pro starts at eleven
(20:04):
hundred dollars oop, and then there's the iPhone seventeen Pro
Max that starts at what is it two thousand?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, So the the the iPhones and I have I
have a sixteen Pro Max and it can do everything
I needed to do. But that's the one big thing
that stands out now is that it is even without
a case, it's a bulky device. Now again, it's it's
worth it, I suppose, but I could see a lot
of folks saying, you know what, maybe it was a
little bit better when we had sleeker, thinner phones that
(20:33):
didn't that didn't seem just you know, it's almost like
you got a little computer in your pocket, which can
can be used too to your advantage, but also it
could be annoying at times too.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
But then I don't understand why everyone wants thin and
then all the first thing you do is buy a
case for it.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
It's true. Yeah, you're gonna make it. You're gonna make
it as big as the as the bulky ones. Whenever
you have to, when you realize what you've invested to
pay for, you're gonna buy probably the biggest and bulkiest
case to make sure it doesn't break.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
Right. No, I've had my little flip foldable phone from
Samsung for years now. Everyone's like, I don't trust that's
folding screen stuff. No, it works fine, having not a
problem with it, apparently three years nice.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
So I'll be honest with you. I don't know many
flip phones. I know they're still around to an extent.
But you're telling me you've got the old school Samsung
the flip I mean you're.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
No, it's a new phone. No, they've been making flip phones,
and apparently Apple will finally get on board and reach
what Samsung's been doing next year. Huawei, the other Chinese
phone company, they've got a good flip phone. Yeah, everyone's
doing flip here.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Here, I am sounding like an Apple snob. I'm sorry, Rory.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Yeah, it's not that I don't let the big giant phone. No,
this one that's little and the just flips in half,
like it's almost the size of my old star tech
about that for dating? For how for how old I am?
But they also did unveil a bunch of new watches
that are coming out as well, bigger screens, longer battery
life on the watches, and the new earbuds. Okay, this
is cool. The earbuds. They do live translation, so you
(21:58):
have to hold the stem I guess you'd say, of
both earbuds and it will do it and we'll let
you talk in a different language and understand.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Yeah, that is that is really cool technology. I know
other other you can you can get headphones that do that,
but I'm sure Apple's got some resources that maybe others
don't to make it a little better than what's been
out there. But yeah, that that that absolutely I think
would interest a lot of people who do a lot
of traveling and may realize, hey, this could really help
me as far as being able to make up for
the for the language barrier. But Roy and Neil is
(22:26):
our guest jointing us here on NBC News, let's talk
about wealthy people in certain states. Forbes has come out
with the wealthiest Americans, and we now have the richest
folks in each state here in America. Uh, what can
you tell us as far as just uh, I guess
we'll start with Kentucky. I'm gonna let you tell us
who it is, but I think I know who it is.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
Uh, well, you give me the guest first I have
the list. Is the curse you think of it?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Is it the Craft family?
Speaker 4 (22:52):
No, it's the Gustavson family. Okay, yep, that George the
public storage folks. Yep, yeah, eight point five billion. Now
to get in the Forbes four hundred list, you need
a minimum of three point eight billion in wealth. That's
how Yeah, things have changed. There's a six point six
trillion dollar value to the four hundred richest Americans. It
(23:14):
went up one point two trillion in just the past year,
so they've had a very good year. Of course, Elon
Moscu is at the top of the list. And what
is it Alice Walton. She's the richest woman, but she
is also from inherited wealth, whereas the wealthiest self made
woman is Diane Hendrix, the owner of the ABC Supply
(23:36):
roofing company.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Give us a few years, we'll be there, right, Rory,
not in this business, that's true. But we can let
me live in fantasyland. All right, you keep buying those
power ball tickets. Rory appreciates your time as always, having
a good dayble to talk tomorrow, my buddy back, Nick,
all right, that's roniald NBC News good stuff. Yeah, he's right.
This isn't exactly the lucrative business that could lead to
(23:59):
one being wealthy enough to be mentioned by Forbes really
in any way. But that's okay. We're getting by and
we're having fun at least I am. Let's get an
update of trafficking weather. Also, we've got a sports update
coming up with Scott right here on news Radio eight
forty w h A s
All right, let's get it started. Hump Day is here
and we are ready to rock and roll. I mean
I am. I think I think the team is ready
to rock and roll. We've got the full crew in
the house today coffee. That is me, Scott fits Jared
alongside John Alden he's here, the company man himself and
John Shannon's back. So again I spoke for you guys,
is if you're ready, But you're already right. It's midweek, bro,
it's hump day, It's day week man.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
We're coming to the end another big weekend upon us.
And I think you know you were. We were talking
earlier this week about the weather and how warm it's
going to get.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
It got warmer, but it got warmer.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
But you know what, when you still walk out in
the morning, it feels comfortable because there's no humidity.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Yes, and that is that. That is what I enjoyed
hearing this morning from Matt Melosovich that we are going
to get a little warmer later this week to where
we'll be above I guess the average, however, humidity going
to be almost non existent, which can make the world
of a difference. But yesterday I was at my son's
my son's flag football practice, and I realized, you know what,
(00:56):
heats back. But again it was you know, we're talking
six pm, So despite it being in the eighties, it
was still still you know, we were in the shade,
and it just felt beautiful outside. So I think I'm
making an adjustment here as I as I get older,
because usually i'm I'm I'm ready for and I am
ready for the brutal stretch of the summer heat to
(01:17):
be over. But I don't know if I'm ready for,
like it to get dark outside earlier things like that,
because and again I'm usually somebody who is I swear
I'm some people would say that I've got issues because
I actually, for the most part, I found myself a
little bit more. I guess content whenever it's cold and
it does get dark at six o'clock, and I don't know.
Now I'm like, yeah, I don't I'm not ready for that.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Just maybe it's because you get up at three in
the morning. Now it's probably darkness all the.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Time, that's true, Yeah, because you know, I won't really
have a whole once we get there, I won't really
have a whole lot of daylight, right.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
I think last night was our last night or the
night before was the last night? We'll see the sunset
after eight o'clock.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
That is correct, Okay, I saw that so last night.
If you were if you were enjoying some sunlight post
eight pm, just no, that was it. From here, it
won't be happening, which again, that is kind of a bummer.
And look, seasonal depression is a real thing. I always
think using the word depression is it's overused quite a bit,
but I mean it's true. There are people who without sunlight,
(02:20):
and I guess just maybe pleasant temperatures, it just changes
sort of the state of mind. I mean, there's we
don't deal with it here, but there are places, and
I believe Alaska doesn't get daylight for a certain stretch
of the year. I don't believe it's for an extensive
amount of time, but I mean there's real proof that
that is not a healthy environment for folks. So I
get it. Whenever we get to the colder temperatures, and
(02:42):
again five point forty five, it's nighttime outside. It's not
a good time for a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
But oh, when we lived in San Diego, my brother
and I used to come home and believe it or not,
because seventy five and sunny sounds great, and we use
that term a lot here, especially derby time. But we
used to have to come home because we missed the
change of seasons.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Because in San Diego it is a weather paradise. It's
absolutely beautiful. Seeing to your point, that makes total sense.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, and I can understand. I kind of like it
because we get up so early. I kind of like
it getting dark earlier. It's easier for me to get
to sleep sometimes at night, and there's a bit of
coziness that comes with fall.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yes, there's something about cold weather. I don't know if
it's more I don't know if it's dark outside being
a big factor, but like whenever there's a chill type
of and I don't mean like cold temperatures, I mean
but just like a relaxing thing, because I think what
it is is because when it's cold and it's dark
outside and it's six thirty, you just kind of feel
like you're not missing out on anything. So you're content
(03:39):
to just kind of sit around and I guess kind
of be lazy.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah, And so you settle in for the night and
then you appreciate when it like after December twenty. First,
when it starts getting lighter every day, then then you
appreciate when the spring rolls around.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, it always reminds me that there's a certain time
in I guess between about I don't know, five five
thirty to about seven pm, whenever it's it's done. I mean,
you could wake up from a nap and have to realize, Okay,
is it is it time to get up and start
the day or did I fall asleep? And is it
is it almost dinner time. I've had a couple. I
(04:15):
haven't had it happen at as an adult, but as
a kid, I would wake up after and after school
nap sometimes and my mom and sister would be in
the kitchen. Mom would still have her work clothes on
she just got home. I don't remember, but I would
just assume, Okay, they're getting ready for school today and work,
so I'm gonna go get ready, and I would I
would go get the shower. I would just go through
(04:36):
the motions and I'd get my backpack and I'd come
out there they're sitting at the table for dinner, and
I'm like, oh, well, guess I guess I realized it
wasn't It wasn't five forty five am. It was five
forty five, But it was such a relief to know
that I don't have to go to school at that time,
right right? Have you all, I mean, you've been doing
this a lot longer than I have Scott as far
as just this schedule, John, you as well, although it's
a little bit a little bit newer for you than Scott. Obviously.
(04:56):
Have you all had weekends or days off where you
wake up in a panic? That's starting to happen to me.
My wife's not happy with it because I jump up
out of bed at five point forty five or sometimes
like six fifteen on a on a Saturday or a Sunday,
and I'm full panic mode running around and it's starting
to annoy my wife. She's like, it's it's Saturday. Yes,
(05:17):
But I had this fear of you know, because it's
I'll tell you this.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I panicked one time when I got a phone call
from Tony Cruz at four fifty eight in the morning
and I hadn't left my bed.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yet, but I was picking me up one morning. That
was a good pan I mean, that was a good thing.
He called.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yes, it's I mean, thankfully Scott was here, but it
saved me from being late all the way through the morning.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I hate that.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
It's wild how the relief of like, because panic sets
in for maybe thirty seconds and then I mean then
I realized, oh what a.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Relief, and then and then the worst part is that,
like Will Clark used to actually race into work, I figure,
at least at this point if I'm late, Okay, I'm late,
all right, I'll get there. You know, five or ten
minutes isn't going to make a difference. Will Clark used
to go all indy five hundred on the way in.
I'm like, dude, be careful.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Does not surprise me, That's right, John. All right, guys,
let's have a hump day, shall we. We've got trafficking
weather updates coming up right here right now, We've got
another sports with We've got a sports update coming up
with you in about fifteen minutes, and John has the
news around five thirty. So let's get it started, shall we.
It is Kentucky and this morning News Coffee and Company
with the euro News Radio eight forty whas we're just
(06:24):
a few seconds away from five to sixteen. I could
have been a liar and told you that it was
five fifteen. But then when I would have said that
by the time you heard it because of this thing
called a delay, I would have been lying to you.
So it is five sixteen now, and I appreciate you
guys hanging out with us getting your Wednesday started here
on news Radio eight forty whas. So today's the big
day for Apple. They they are unveiling the latest when
(06:46):
it comes to everything they have to offer products, whether
it be iPhone air pods, the Apple Watch. They're gonna
have iOS twenty six launching launching Monday. And I'm not
sure if it's because I'm paying more attention to it
or it's just because you know, it's a competitive business
in the tech world, but I do feel like there's
more talk about Apple's release here than we've had in
(07:08):
previous releases. Now, if you're not an Apple user, then
I'm sure you don't care. But if you're an Apple snob,
maybe I shouldn't call people that. But there are Apple
snobs out there, John Olden, you can attest to this
as somebody who's a proud Android guy. Apple snobs they
just assumed that anything that's not Apple, that's just it
must be for the pores. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I mean I've seen I remember I vividly remember somebody
posting on Twitter a while back that they were embarrassed
to have to ask to you somebody's Android charger because
Apple recently moved to the USBC chargers at androids you
used for.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Quite a while.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
The newer iPhones have the USBC compared to the older ones,
and so they were embar staff to ask for an Android.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I think that's faded a little bit, just because I
think everybody's well aware now yes you can do whatever
you want, I mean on either device, but the USB.
I mean, I feel like there's been more when it
comes to super competitive I guess battles like Android and Apple,
as far as iOS systems. I mean again, PEPSI Coke,
(08:07):
that kind of thing. You will see. Okay, well, if
they've done this, we're gonna do it as well. And
yes we're copying, but we're gonna do it better. Like
whenever you're you're the two dominant forces in a certain industry,
which these two are, Like you see, like Apple going
to USBC, they probably realized, oh yeah, that's probably the
right way to do it. I can get a faster
charge with my with my hardware by using this connection.
(08:28):
They'd never admit that they're copying. But that's that's that's
what you do. That's when it comes that that's that's
really pretty common when it comes to super competitive things.
But the I, the Apple iPhones seventeen and seventeen Pro,
those are the newest actual phones. They're they're expected to
be ultra thin. That that, of course is the uh
is the real cell here is that you're gonna get
(08:48):
the latest and greatest when it comes to tech. But
this is gonna be a little bit more sleek.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
The air Pods Pro. These are the AirPods Pro three.
These are new and they've got a new design and fit,
and they have improved active noise cancelation. But the big
difference here is there's live translation features that allow users
to hear conversations in different languages directly in their ear. Now,
this is not super unique to Apple, because in fact,
(09:16):
there are products already that exist where you can do this.
We actually talked about it a few months ago. Where
you can get you can get these headphones that have
if you can get them connected to to something Wi
Fi data, it can pick up conversations that others are
having in your in your headphones, and it can translate
it for you, which is really, I think, really useful.
I think that's uh. I mean, I can't think of
(09:38):
any time where I would use it in a normal
in a regular situation, but if you're traveling abroad, it
could it could really help as far as just understanding,
they'll you know, being able to make up for the
you know, the the No, there's no loss in translation.
I'm sure there would be some things that still wouldn't
sound right, like, I'm sure it's not a full proof
thing to where you're gonna get everything in the in
(09:58):
the language that you that you're fluent in, and I
mean the context can be stretched in a lot of
different ways depending upon which language is we're talking about.
But yeah, today is the big Apple Day, and I'm
I'm an Apple user, But I have no plans to
purchase anything new. Uh, although if if I'm not interested
as much in the live translation for the air pods,
(10:20):
but the active noise cancelation, would would would definitely uh,
if it is in fact a big boost, I would
I would maybe look into buying those at some point,
Probably not now because they're going to be too expensive.
But uh, the air pods I have now, which I use,
they're great. They don't I don't like that. For example,
when I run on the treadmill and I use them,
like I hear too much of the loud treadmill. I
(10:40):
hear too much of the gym noise. I don't need
complete noise cancelation. But the ones I have now, the
air pods, I like them. But that's the one complain
is that you just don't get as much noise cancelation
as as i'd like. Yeah, John, you you came in
here when I started talking Apple. You're the enje Are
you here to talk crap about Apple? No?
Speaker 5 (10:59):
I was just I was just going to say the
one of the things the reason why Apple had to
switch to USBC with the chargers. They were perfectly happy
with the lightning connectors and had a whole ecosystem around those.
The European Union forced Apple really to switch to them
in Europe because they said it was unfair to consumers
over there to have to buy a different type of
(11:20):
cable than what was more commonly used over there. Androids
is a little more common and popular phone over there,
and they've all gone USBC, so the EU ruled Apple
had to switch over there. So Apple just had to
do it all over. I'm looking forward to seeing what
the phones are like.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I mean, if had they had they decided, no, we're
not going to do it, really wouldn't have surprised me,
just known how Apple has has been historically. But again
they would they would clearly be less attractive to many
people in Europe, which would be a bad business decision, right.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
Right, And and so now they've had to switch all
their phones, switch to the designs to to a more
universal plug in, which is USBC. It comes in handy
with me and my wife if she needs a cable
I don't have upstairs and find her lightning cable I can.
I can plug in USBC.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
But in a lot of things when it comes to tech,
now are USBC driven? The lightning was just a specifical,
a specific Apple thing. There's nothing else. Did we connect
that way? No? And that's just I feel like that's
just how they For a long time, it felt like
Apple's going to do whatever, and you'll just have to
conform to it because it's Apple. And I think now
they don't.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
I mean, that's still a lot of their mindset with
things with their with their operating system and with their computers.
But I'm looking forward to the to the iOS twenty six.
They've jumped it ahead to make it current with the
with the upcoming year instead of going to like iOS
eighteen or nineteen. But I've got to learn it anyway,
because my wife is still an Apple iPhone user. So
when this new ICE operating system drops on her phone
(12:35):
and I'm going to start hearing, what is this?
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Why is this doing this? You'll like to get her
caught up. Yeah, I got to get her caught.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
Up, and I get I got to stay current myself.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Good stuff. All right, let's get to a quick update
of trafficking. Whether we've got sports updates on the way
from Scott Fitzgerald right here on his radio forty whas.
Thank you very much, John, just a day away from
Bourbon and beyond. We'll talk a little bit more about
that later on, because I do think there are some
folks that may not realize there have been some changes
as far as just the layout, but exciting stuff. I
(13:04):
don't have fomo. I've kind of grown out of that
as far as you know, feeling like Hey, I wish
I could have the same joy and excitement for something
that others have, because it's nice to see people excited
about going to a big event or just about anything really.
But I'm happy for those that are going to enjoy
it and now know that it really just isn't It
isn't my thing. But yesterday I did notice some folks
(13:25):
downtown Louisville. They may be here for other reasons. They
may be here because of a business trip or whatever
it may be, but they may be here making it
a week in Louisville. Right they're here for the festival,
but they're just going to take in what Louisville has
to offer. And if that's the case, I hope that
those doing that are enjoying themselves.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
All right.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
So we talked yesterday about the driver's license situation where
clearly a lot of leaders in their communities throughout the state,
of the local level, the county level, they're pushing to
go back to the way it used to be with
driver's license, and obviously the leaders at the state level,
but sheer they claim that that just really isn't doable
because of how long it would take to go back.
(14:02):
But I will say, I've got some good news for you.
There's going to be a new driver's license office opening.
In fact, I think it is open now. It is
in Bargetown, Kentucky. It's a new permanent driver's license office,
and it's offering the improved technology and convenience for residents,
which I guess that's the way they're billing it. But
as far as convenience, that'd be the last word I
would use when it comes to people sharing their experiences
(14:23):
when it comes to getting a driver's license made or
a real ID. So this is going to be next
to the Nelson County Justice Center, and I'll be honest
with you, just from the stories that I've heard for
a while now, Bargetown may not be a place you
really ever get to. It may not be that close
to you, but it might be the easiest way for
you to get one if it's taken a long time
(14:45):
to get an appointment closer to you, if you're in Louisville.
But it'll be next to the Nelson County Justice Center,
and it replaces a temporary office that opened in July
of last year. So the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says the
new facility includes updated technology to speed up the services.
Monday through Friday eight am to four pm are going
to be the hours, and they do welcome walkins, but
(15:05):
appointments are encouraged for for faster service. So who knows,
maybe maybe that would that'll speed some things up for
folks that need to go get a driver's license made now,
it is worth mentioning that they do not offer driver testing,
so you can't go get your license there as far
as passing your driver's test, but as far as just
going and I guess getting it renewed, or maybe you've
(15:26):
lost yours need to get it done, or you need
a real ID. I mean Bartetown is again it's not
that close for a lot of people, but I've heard
stories of people having to drive two hours away. And
even if you do end up getting an appointment, it's
not convenient, like it shouldn't. You shouldn't have to do
that in order to just go get your driver's license updated.
So I don't I have no clue as far as
(15:47):
the light at the end of the tunnel here, because
you got to keep in mind this has been an
issue for a long time now, and you throw in
the whole controversy surrounding these state workers that worked the
driver's office have worked at helping getting people's driver's license
either renewed or made in general. And you've got some
(16:08):
of these folks that were selling driver's license under the
table to people illegally, and that's a whole other can
of worms that just didn't a good look overall. All right,
real quick, I want to talk to you guys about
something that is really awesome. It's the second time this
is happening, and I don't know if a lot of
people are aware that your pets can donate blood. So
the Jefferson Animal Hospital in the American Red Cross, they're
(16:29):
teaming up to help folks not only come and donate
blood themselves, but also let them learn about the process
of pet blood donation. So this is something special for
you and your pet. And it's going to be Saturday,
September twenty seventh, and it is the Jefferson Animal Hospital
and Regional Emergency Center on outer Loop. It is the
(16:50):
Pintes for Paws and people. So it's a one of
a kind type of event and you can roll up
your sleeves and give blood to the American Red Cross
while your dog or cat and then donate blood as
a pet blood donor. And this to me is something
that I'd never again, out of sight, out of mind, right,
I never thought about pets donating blood, but it is
(17:11):
a thing, it's needed, and every pet blood donation can
save up to four to six lives of other pets,
which is incredible. So you can come out, bring your
whole family. They're gonna have great food on hand. You
can chat with experts at the JEFFERSONIM Hospital about the
life saving impact of pet blood donations. They can also
put you at ease if the thought of your dog
or cat donating blood, maybe you don't know the process,
(17:34):
and you don't you don't feel comfortable because it's your
fur baby, and you just you're worried. They'll put you
at ease and let you know how how routine the
process is and also let you know just how important
it is that we do have pets that donate blood.
So again, JEFFERSONIM Hospital they even serving the Looiveral community
for forty five years, open twenty four to seven, even
on holidays. They've got a doctor on site every day
of the year, every single night, including Christmas. So when
(17:54):
it comes to your pet self. You're in great hands
with the team of Jefferson in the hospital. And again
keep in mind September twenty seven is the big event
at the outer Loop location. You can learn more at
pet bloodbank dot com or give them a call. Five
O two nine hundred pets. Again, that's Bibo two nine
hundred pets. Don't miss a chance to save lives and
of course celebrate these pets that we love. Really really
important stuff and who would want to do their part
(18:16):
to help save the lives of pets. So again, big
big thanks to our friends over there at the Jefferson
Animal Hospital for partnering with us and hopefully they get
a good turnout. All right, let's get an update of
traffic and weather, shall we. We've got Rody O'Neal NBC
News set to join us on the other side. It's
a Wednesday. We were rolling along here on News Radio
eight forty wajs. Happy hump days to you. It is
Kentucky and this morning news coffee and company with you
(18:38):
on news radio eight forty whas and we have Rory
O'Neil of NBC News joining us here. It's a big
day for Apple. Rory they've got a lot of new
toys they're going to make available for folks, including a
new iOS that'll be out next week. What can you
tell us about about this this latest for Apple. It
seems as if there's a little bit more, a little
more buzz around this one than than the previous updates
(18:58):
they've had.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Yeah, a little bit more. Now, are you team Samsung
or a team iPhone?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
On? Team iPhone?
Speaker 4 (19:05):
All right, I'm team Samsung. So all this is gibberish
to me. Okay, let's just put that out there.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
There's a real divide. There's a real divide people stick with,
you know's there's some loyalty to those two things, Android
and iOS. People like what they like. They're uncomfortable with
the other.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Right, there are those of us who are right and
everybody else. Yeah, the iPhone Air is kept being released,
and that's really what's getting all the buzz. It's so thin.
Five point six millimeters thick. That's essentially about the size
of a pencil eraser. That's the thickness of the phone. Now,
there will be some parts that bulge out to accommodate
(19:40):
some of the processors and some of the camera lenses,
but the iPhone Air starts at one thousand dollars and
it will launch on September nineteenth. I think they'll start
taking orders this Friday. And the iPhone seventeen Pro similar
camera bump as the Air, I guess they'll call it,
but it's also got a more durable surround. I'm a
shield on it. The I seventeen Pro starts at eleven
(20:04):
hundred dollars oop, and then there's the iPhone seventeen Pro
Max that starts at what is it two thousand?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, So the the the iPhones and I have I
have a sixteen Pro Max and it can do everything
I needed to do. But that's the one big thing
that stands out now is that it is even without
a case, it's a bulky device. Now again, it's it's
worth it, I suppose, but I could see a lot
of folks saying, you know what, maybe it was a
little bit better when we had sleeker, thinner phones that
(20:33):
didn't that didn't seem just you know, it's almost like
you got a little computer in your pocket, which can
can be used too to your advantage, but also it
could be annoying at times too.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
But then I don't understand why everyone wants thin and
then all the first thing you do is buy a
case for it.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
It's true. Yeah, you're gonna make it. You're gonna make
it as big as the as the bulky ones. Whenever
you have to, when you realize what you've invested to
pay for, you're gonna buy probably the biggest and bulkiest
case to make sure it doesn't break.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
Right. No, I've had my little flip foldable phone from
Samsung for years now. Everyone's like, I don't trust that's
folding screen stuff. No, it works fine, having not a
problem with it, apparently three years nice.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
So I'll be honest with you. I don't know many
flip phones. I know they're still around to an extent.
But you're telling me you've got the old school Samsung
the flip I mean you're.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
No, it's a new phone. No, they've been making flip phones,
and apparently Apple will finally get on board and reach
what Samsung's been doing next year. Huawei, the other Chinese
phone company, they've got a good flip phone. Yeah, everyone's
doing flip here.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Here, I am sounding like an Apple snob. I'm sorry, Rory.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Yeah, it's not that I don't let the big giant phone. No,
this one that's little and the just flips in half,
like it's almost the size of my old star tech
about that for dating? For how for how old I am?
But they also did unveil a bunch of new watches
that are coming out as well, bigger screens, longer battery
life on the watches, and the new earbuds. Okay, this
is cool. The earbuds. They do live translation, so you
(21:58):
have to hold the stem I guess you'd say, of
both earbuds and it will do it and we'll let
you talk in a different language and understand.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Yeah, that is that is really cool technology. I know
other other you can you can get headphones that do that,
but I'm sure Apple's got some resources that maybe others
don't to make it a little better than what's been
out there. But yeah, that that that absolutely I think
would interest a lot of people who do a lot
of traveling and may realize, hey, this could really help
me as far as being able to make up for
the for the language barrier. But Roy and Neil is
(22:26):
our guest jointing us here on NBC News, let's talk
about wealthy people in certain states. Forbes has come out
with the wealthiest Americans, and we now have the richest
folks in each state here in America. Uh, what can
you tell us as far as just uh, I guess
we'll start with Kentucky. I'm gonna let you tell us
who it is, but I think I know who it is.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
Uh, well, you give me the guest first I have
the list. Is the curse you think of it?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Is it the Craft family?
Speaker 4 (22:52):
No, it's the Gustavson family. Okay, yep, that George the
public storage folks. Yep, yeah, eight point five billion. Now
to get in the Forbes four hundred list, you need
a minimum of three point eight billion in wealth. That's
how Yeah, things have changed. There's a six point six
trillion dollar value to the four hundred richest Americans. It
(23:14):
went up one point two trillion in just the past year,
so they've had a very good year. Of course, Elon
Moscu is at the top of the list. And what
is it Alice Walton. She's the richest woman, but she
is also from inherited wealth, whereas the wealthiest self made
woman is Diane Hendrix, the owner of the ABC Supply
(23:36):
roofing company.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Give us a few years, we'll be there, right, Rory,
not in this business, that's true. But we can let
me live in fantasyland. All right, you keep buying those
power ball tickets. Rory appreciates your time as always, having
a good dayble to talk tomorrow, my buddy back, Nick,
all right, that's roniald NBC News good stuff. Yeah, he's right.
This isn't exactly the lucrative business that could lead to
(23:59):
one being wealthy enough to be mentioned by Forbes really
in any way. But that's okay. We're getting by and
we're having fun at least I am. Let's get an
update of trafficking weather. Also, we've got a sports update
coming up with Scott right here on news Radio eight
