Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hey, everybody, welcome to atn the Sharkiri Board of Talk Radio.
I'm Kate Delaney. Breaking news, huge news that just happened.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
A short while ago.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Israeli leaders approved a plan for the gradual military takeover
of all of Gaza. And what a risky decision and
interesting decision that went against the recommendation of the Israeli army.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
So it is backed by of.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Course Prime Minister Benjamin and Nahu. But it's again you
look at the military chief of staff against the idea
of doing this. But after ten hours of deliberations, a
majority of the Security Cabinet for the PM, for the
Prime Minister backed his proposal to prepare to conquer the
(01:05):
core of Gaza city.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
So what does this mean?
Speaker 1 (01:08):
The goal, according to the statement, is to achieve a
victory over Harma's a decisive one which led to you
think about what happened back on October seventh. Wow, So
Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee talked about what he was
(01:31):
asked about whether or not this was a genocide of
what was happening in Gaza because of the children that
were starving. And here's what he said.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
If Israel is attempting genocide. They're really really bad at it.
They could have had genocide on October the eighth. If
they were trying to commit genocide, it would not have
taken them twenty two months to do it.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So again, this is very very big news when we
talk about what is so much of a tinderbox, I
think when we talk about Israel and what's happened in
the past couple of years because of October seventh, and
again the issue of what's happening to the kids and
(02:20):
the families along.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
The Gaza Strip.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
So there is so much more I think that's going
to trickle down on this, that's absolutely for sure. The
thing that is taking up the conversation here in the
US really for more than a handful of months has
been the tariffs and what is going to happen with
the tariffs.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
So one of the things the President has talked.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
About, we talked about it the other day, is that,
in fact, you've got to remember there will be no
tariffs if you are building chips in the US. If
you are building something in the US and you're from
another country and the focus is for example, like I said,
the chips, there will not be a tariff on top
(03:06):
of that, and he reemphasized that.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
We'll be putting a terraphone of approximately one hundred percent
on chips and semiconductors. But if you're building in the
United States of America, there's no charge even though you're
building and you're not producing yet in terms of the
big numbers of jobs and all of the things that
you're building. If you're building, there will be nut chart.
(03:30):
So I just want everyone to know.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
That, Wow, again, does this affect our markets? Of course
it Doesn't're going to talk about that later in the show.
In the meantime, one of the craziest things that's happened,
One of the scariest things I think that's happened is
a woman who was posing as the kind of nurse
who could go out and cater to the people who
(03:56):
needed some you know, needed medical help, when in fact
she wasn't that kind of a nurse. So this happened
in Florida, and over forty four hundred people were victimized
by this woman who really was only cleared to take
(04:18):
blood and to change IV bags, but yet she was
making house calls and really defrauding people out of money
and doing the work that she was not licensed to do.
So here's Sheriff Rick Staley from Flagler County talking about that.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
This isn't I just made a mistake. This is about
perpetrating a fraud. And when you caught one lie, you
created another lie to continue perpetrating your crime. Basically in this.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Case, Wow, and now arrested, she's been so then it's
now a question of what, you know, what happens to
all these people who were frauded? You know that, who
were victims of the fraud. And this story is starting
(05:15):
to gain more traction. More people are hearing about it,
and they're wondering about how did she get away with this?
And part of the reason is because when she applied
for her job, apparently to even do the basic things
that she was trying to do at Advent Health, she
said that her name was different from her last name,
(05:38):
from the name that they had the number four for
the license because she had gotten married, so her name
was different. And how could a hospital system buy that
and not check that?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Wow, you want to talk about a security breach?
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I think it's time for some good news.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
It's all about surfing, isn't it. We have our song
that makes me think of surfing every time I hear it.
Speaker 6 (06:13):
If everybody had an across the USA, then everybody be
served like California as.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, just like the World Surfing Dog Championships that returned
to San Francisco just a few days ago. Almost twenty
pups took part in it. The annual contest happens on
pacifica State beach and draws thousands of spectators, all thrilled
to watch the dogs compete against their peers for a
chance to win.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
And some of the heats you had multiple.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Dogs that surfed in ten of It's very very cool,
and the judges note how long the dogs stay on
the board and how long they could hold their balance,
and whether they performed any tricks.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Some of them actually did that.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Some of them turned around while they were surfing on
the waves. Wow, So you know they ended up with
medals and dog treats. It was Cacao, a labrador from Brazil,
who retained her title of Grand Champion from last year.
I mean, I'm telling you look this up on whatever
(07:21):
search engine you use, and it is the most hilarious,
hilarious thing.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
And they had different.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Categories like medium dog categories. The different heats he one
and two and just watching it. I don't know how
you cannot just fall in love with these dogs. I
just it's just crazy to watch them on the surfboards.
No one's holding them. They're just doing their thing. You know,
they have their their life vests on and they're they're
(07:52):
out there trying to catch the waves. I have never
seen somebody told me about it. I have never seen
anything like it. I do not think Guinness, would you
ever want to try to surf some of the waves. Okay,
I'm going to translate he's saying, no, no way. Don't
(08:16):
even think that you can try to get me on
a surfboard. I can't even get them to do go
on a boat?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Much less do tricks and surf some waves in in
a couple of different heats. Congratulations to all of the
people who had their dogs competing, because I'm telling you,
they all looked. Yeah, they all looked absolutely wonderful.
Speaker 7 (08:42):
Odds and ends next.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
What people, you know that joke?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
How hot is it? Nobody in Arizona wants to hear that.
They want nothing to do with it. In Phoenix one
hundred and sixteen degrees right now, as this leaves my
lips in the evening one hundred degrees. One hundred degrees
in Tucson. My friends listening to us on KVOI, I
(09:25):
know you're hot.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I know you're hot because you told me so.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
I had three three reached out to me to tell
me just how hot it is. All over Arizona, they're
seeing temperatures that just are a little bit abnormal, and
there's big concerns about that. In Phoenix, it was one
hundred and sixteen degrees during the day.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
So one of the.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Phoenix fire captains, I caught him on the tube, Todd Keller,
said that they've got these cooling bags even if they
have to. They've had people that have had heat strokes
that they've had to put them in these bags that
they have, And he talked about, you know, you got
to be careful and when do you hydrate. You do
(10:09):
it well before you start the day off, it's the
day before you're consistently hydrating.
Speaker 8 (10:18):
Once we start reaching that one hundred and ten hundred
and fifteen degree weather, people mean you take every precaution
before going out in the heat.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, I mean we say it all the time, but
I feel like we.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Just cannot say it enough because I've been there. Ride's
happened to me and it is scary. And you think,
but I've had some uh power aid. Yeah, I had
some power ade, I had a little bit of water
and uh oh, I was this close to a heat
stroke and it is not you get very very ill.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Let me tell you, all.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Right, along with what's happening there, it's not just there.
I mean, we're talking about red flag warnings. Besides all
over Arizona, I'm talking about other places in the West
that are feeling the same thing. I mean, there's heat
advisories stretching from the desert southwest to the Pacific northwest,
huge portions of California and southern Nevada the same thing.
(11:16):
It's pretty hot in Utah too, And some of this
has to do with the fact that you also have
with these heat advisories, you also have horrible, horrible fires
that have broken out. I told you about the fire
that was where I used to live in central California,
(11:40):
San Luis Obispo, Santa Maria area, all in there, and
it's just gotten worse. And they have so many assets
that they're using to try and push back on these
extreme fires, and even near Los Angeles they have some fires.
It's just critical fire danger that that are breaking out.
(12:02):
I mean, you know, you got these deadly flash floods
in North Carolina. Then you have the extreme heat out
in the West. I mean, just be careful because it's
bubbling up all over the place. Like I said, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska,
South Dakota. I was looking at a critical fire map
(12:24):
and I was seeing all of these areas lit up
because you got the conditions that are conducive for rapid
fire spread with new or existing fires in all of
those areas. And by the way, you know I talked
about Phoenix and Tucson palm springs is getting hammered when
(12:44):
it comes to the heat. But also Albuquerque and El
Paso and Amarillo and Dallas and Oklahoma City. We have
people listening in all those places. Denver, Sussity. They're talking
about the possibility of one hundred and eighteen degrees. Certainly
Phoenix and palm spring same thing you could see that
happen into the weekend. Wow wow in North Dakota. And
(13:09):
thinking about those temperatures in North Dakota, Uh, do it
exactly what that fire captain said. I mean, just really
be careful and make sure you hydrate and think about
not really spending a lot of time if you don't
have to outdoors. All right, So we got some really
good birthdays to throw at you this time around. So
(13:34):
once again, if nobody's told you happy birthday and you're
listening to the show, Happy Birthday, I think it's important
to recognize anyone's date of birth.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
So happy happy birthday.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I hope you get to celebrate it, that's for sure,
David Decvny. Yeah, nothing like if you party horns, or
maybe you have those evil friends who take you out
and you're a low key person, you're an introvert, and
you decide, oh sure I'll go out to dinner, and
then everybody in the restaurant sings happy birthday to you.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
You know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
I was out to dinner with some friends earlier in
the evening, and that happened to a table near us,
and of course everybody saying happy birthday. And the poor guy,
probably in his forties, he was as red as any
tomato I have ever seen. So he was in the
X Files. He was in Beethoven you're not gonna known
(14:27):
from that. He was in House of d with Robin
Williams if we go a little bit further back, but
the X Files really is the big clue. David d'covney,
like I said, sixty five years old, sixty five years old,
David d'covny, Happy birthday, right, also celebrating a birthday. Charlie Then.
(14:53):
Charlie Then is fifty years old. She's been a ton
of things. I think I've seeing almost everything she's been
in when I started to look at her, IMBD. That's
the resume for the people who are in movies right,
so Fast and the Furious a bunch of those installments.
She was in Mad Max, Fury Road, she was in
(15:18):
The Cider House Rules.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
She was in Monster in two thousand and three.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
She won an Academy Award for Best Actress for that role,
and she portrayed as a famous serial killer. She didn't
look like herself at all. She was in a very
scary movie that I saw in the late nineties, The
Devil's Advocate. Anyway, you get the drift here. She's been
in a whole bunch of different movies. All right, What
(15:51):
do you think of when I say this, pizza.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Pizza, pizza, pizza, pizza, pizza, pizza, pizzas, pizza, pizza, pizza, pizza,
free chocolate chocolate. So it's like the age old question.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Unless you don't like pizza, I don't care where you live,
where do you get the best pizza? I mean that
was Little Caesar's their famous ad. But they did a poll,
talk a research to the survey of five thousand people
across fifty states and who were the people that were
the ultimate pizza fans. And so it turns out the
(16:32):
Hawkeye state Iowans eat the most pizza five times a month,
followed by North Dakota slightly less than five times, Alaska
four point seven times. How they split that difference, I
have no idea. And then when it comes to toppings,
(16:52):
the country is split except for Massachusetts, the only state
took place a veggie pizza at the number one spot,
which I'm.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Very prized by that.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
But the iconic pepperoni pizza is favored by Alaska and
California and Colorado and the Great State of Connecticut and
Delaware and Florida.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
You get the drift.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I mean, really, people like pepperoni Texas Tennessee, New Jersey.
They like it right, the meat Lover's Pizza. Wow, the
most The state's most fond of meat Lover's Pizza Arizona, Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska,
(17:38):
North Carolina, Utah, and Oregon. You're in that mix too, Wow.
I think it's about where's the best place to get pizza?
You know what, when you move somewhere, where's the best
place to get pizza?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
And then how you like it?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Like how you like it, which you're just talking about
the toppings, but also deep dish New York style to
style squares, however it is that makes a big difference.
You know, there are over seventy four thousand pizza restaurants
in the US. The market size to be in the
(18:13):
pizza business fifty.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Point one billion. Fifty point one billion, are you kidding me?
Speaker 9 (18:22):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Ugh to own a pizza place, right, and especially if
you can keep that overhead down. So what's interesting is
some of the habits of how people eat the pizzas.
Forty percent of the people from Georgia admit they eat
the crust first, fifty three percent from Illinois use a
knife and fork.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
That's because deep dish is what I think.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Fifty eight percent of the people who respond to this
survey from New Mexico and Hawaii prefer to add spice
to their pizza. Michigan and South Carolina least likely to
do anything to the pizza thirty one percent. It's like
making me hungry for pizza. Now I am a pizza hounds,
I do. I have to be so careful because I'm
(19:10):
gonna have to like run five more miles with the
amount of pizza I could probably eat.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
I easily would be right up there on that record.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Oh, I just like it, and I like it the
best with onions and pepperoni.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
How about you? What'd you miss? We're going over it next.
Speaker 9 (19:44):
All right.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I like to call this what we mix in every
once in a while, would you miss? At the very
top of the show, I'll just reiterate this huge breaking news.
Israel Security Cabinet approved a plan for the military to
occupy Gaza City. That decision follow those remarks by Prime
Minister Benjamin nettan Yahoo in which he said Israel intends
(20:05):
to take military control of.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
The entire Gaza Strip.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Let me say that again that Israel intends to take
military control of the entire Gaza strip as hunger is
spreading in Gaza, and now the focus is definitely definitely
going to switch there, that is for sure. Elsewhere, there
(20:33):
is so much conversation about policing and what it's going
to look like in the future, and the future is here,
and we're seeing that drones are being used for all
kinds of things. Obviously in war we see we're seeing
drone techniques and drones heavily being used in what's happening
with Russia and Ukraine. In fact, some of those techniques
and what's happened there has actually been a primer, if
(20:57):
you will, for the US should there be any future skirmishes.
I mean, it is about drones, absolutely so. Drones are
also now being used for like nine to one one
calls and to find missing persons because of what you
can see from the air and how quickly the response
can be by the time cruisers get to let's say
(21:19):
a house or whatnot, and especially if that it can
be called off, you save money and time where other
resources could be headed in other directions. I caught this
today on one of the shows. I thought was great.
Lieutenant Jason Messer from Upper Arlington, Ohio Police Department talked
about how big this is becoming.
Speaker 8 (21:41):
It's part of the ever rapidly increasing technological field that's
available to police officers. Thermal imaging that is available on
these cameras is literally a lifesaver and it's going to
help us find people who are hiding where officers can't see.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
I love that part, right, Like somebody is breaks into
a house, the alarms go off, whatever it is, and
then they can find them they're crawling across in alleys
and whatnot. It's true that thermal imaging is very, very big.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
We're ready to do.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
More on drones, drones, drones in the upcoming weeks. We
have a series where we're going to talk about the
applications that are being used besides what you just heard
there and what we know certainly in war situations, and
that there are some pizza places and other restaurants that
(22:33):
are talking about using drones and they're testing that too.
As a matter of fact, right now, this is what
we like to call dollars and cents.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Many money money money, So you know, scams are everywhere.
I was talking to somebody today about that, and they
were talking about how many times they get calls about,
you know, the business that they're in, or.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
They get calls or they get emails where it looks
official from the company, it looks like it's from their bank,
and they're thrown off and they sometimes people respond. So
losses to impersonation scams, that's really been on the rise.
If you go back to twenty twenty of what we
(23:20):
know tracked fifty five million, fifty five million, we're talking
about losses to impersonation scams in twenty twenty four four
hundred and forty four million dollars. Wow, So somebody impersonating
(23:41):
you know, somebody else copying and pasting, reaching out to people.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
We've had that happen.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
I've had that happen to me on several occasions.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
We've had that happen with the show.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
And the more people I talk to, the more they
have that happen in various areas of their life too.
It's just a good reminder to always double check, check,
check check, to make sure that you know, especially with
impersonation scams where they catch you.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
You're off guard.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
That sounds like it's absolutely right because they have the
lingo down and you're on the phone, or you answer
the door, or you get some sort of an email
and it looks so real and it sends you spiraling
without checking. So yeah, my advice is just make a
(24:39):
few phone calls. Just check, just check before you act
with whatever it is that they're trying to abscond from you.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Probably money, right, I.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Mean, it's happened where people have even given up bank
accounts because they're that good. Because I think when you
talk about the figures that I just gave you, never
transfer to send money, hang up and verify, block on
one of calls, you know, protect yourself for goodness sake,
because that is a huge jump in just a short
(25:13):
amount of time to see it go up that high.
So those are some really good tips. Just never do
the money thing, hang up and verify, and absolutely when
you get a call and it throws you off, just
all you have to do, all you have to do
is block it all. Right, Like I said, this is
(25:33):
what you miss.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
So we've been.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Talking about Trump and Putin meeting for a while now, right.
President Trump said on Thursday that Russia's Vladimir Putin doesn't
have to meet with Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky in order
for him and Putin to meet. He told reporters that
in the Oval, he said, they would like to meet
with me, and I'll do whatever I can to stop
(25:55):
the killing. Earlier on Thursday, there was some pushing back
on the Kremlin claims that a Trump Putin's summit had
been set. White House Press Secretary Carolyn Levitt followed up
to say Trump was open to meeting with Putin, but
the preference was still for a trilateral meeting. But it
(26:17):
doesn't have to be that right So, supposedly, is there
going to be a deadline for Putin to agree to
a ceasefire or face sanctions, because remember that was thrown
out there and the President said that, you know, Friday
is the deadline, and we're sticking to it. It's going
(26:38):
to be up to him. We're going to see what
he has to say. It's up to him, and I'd
be very disappointed if something doesn't happen here.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
So will there be a meeting in the coming days?
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I mean, the Kremlin says they're working on that right now.
They're working on it right now. What the venue will be,
all of that has been agreed on and supposedly there's
going to be more details that will come out about
it too. So that would be a good thing to
(27:11):
end the war with Ukraine. But what would be the concessions,
what would Putin agree to to make this become a reality?
I mean, yeah, that's the key thing. Zelenski wrote in
a post on X The war is happening in Europe
and Ukraine is an integral part of Europe. We are
already in negotiations on EU ascension, he says, therefore Europe
(27:35):
must be a participant in the relevant processes. That's another
curveball in the middle of all of that. Boy, it
is interesting, isn't it. We have the situation in Israel,
and then now with them saying we're going full bore
into Gaza, period that's it. And then on top of that,
(27:56):
which of course there's US interest there, and then on
top of that the situation with Ukraine and Russia, especially
with deadlines. But I really think Israel saying they're going
to control Gaza, that's going to overshadow whatever's going to
happen with Putin and Ukraine and what kind of a
(28:18):
meeting that's going to look like. I mean, of course,
when it happens, there will be a lot of conversation
about it, but the focus is absolutely going to be
I mean, is this a temporary thing, what does it mean?
And what does that do to the hostages? Are the
hostages in the tunnels at risk? Because there's at least
twenty Israeli hostages that are you know, they're emaciated themselves
(28:44):
in the tunnels and they've been there maybe since you know,
October seventh. But does that jeopardize you know, their lives?
And I think some of the families of those Israeli
hostages are not happy with that decision, and many of
(29:06):
them have said that all right, I am almost loathed
to bring this up. I know there's so many people
listening to us along the Gulf coast, along the East
coast when.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
We talk about hurricanes.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
But now they're saying above normal activity is being predicted
for the remainder of the twenty twenty five Atlantic hurricane season.
That's according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Of course,
they they're the ones that look at the activity and
they're continuing to say that it's an above normal number
(29:38):
of name storms for the year. But what does that mean?
There's now a fifty percent chance of above normal. It's
just the number that they're saying. They're forecasting thirteen to
eighteen name storms and what does that mean. It means
where they're predicting winds of thirty nine miles and miles
(29:59):
an hour org with five to nine of the storms
predicted to become hurricanes with winds of seventy five miles
an hour or greater.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
And so two to five of the name storms expect
to become major hurricanes between CAT three and CAT.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Five and we don't want to see that.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Oh, we went through the thick of it in Florida
and the Carolina is everybody still trying to recover from
the storms from last season. But we've seen four named
tropical storms, no hurricanes if you're keeping score. Andrea Barry
Chantale Dexter, so far Erin is the next name up.
(30:45):
I mean, look, no storms, no two storms are alike,
and that's for sure, and they're all unique as far
as what could be life threatening hazards in coastal and
inland communities, because that's what happened in North Carolina. I mean,
the only thing you do there is have a plan
in place. And know what you should take and what
(31:06):
you should do when when you're in the middle of
a predicted hurricane, right, have a plan or plan to
be stuck in the middle of all of that.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Going to the man Cave, going to the Merricave, going
to the merri Caves. Once again with that opening theme.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
We are in the man Cave and we're gonna actually
turn to tennis at the top and then rock into
some NFL news and notes and of course Major League
Baseball as well. But congratulations to Ben Shelton. Wow, he
wins it all by pie beating Hatchakova in the final.
(32:02):
He wins a Master's one thousand, a huge tournament, the
ATP Tour in Toronto. I happen to catch that and
it was beautiful to see him. Wow to see him
win that. So how about some applause for the for
the playing of Ben Shelton. Just incredible. And they came
(32:25):
down to the third set, they were in the tiebreaker
and he was able to pull it out.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
He was stoked.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
He jumped into the crowd, gave his dad the biges
bear hug you can possibly imagine. So that was in Toronto. Meanwhile,
the women were playing in Montreal and Victoria and Buco
and unknown ranked well below three hundred, has whipped her
way through this tournament and she beat Naomi Osaka to
(32:57):
capture the National Bank Open title. And congratulations to her.
That's a very very big win. So completely unknown underdog
with a win going all the way through that tournament.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
And then the big news.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Yeah, it's a great, great player, great attitude. You as open,
our biggest tournament, a really big draw here in the
United States, even if you don't know anything about tennis,
it's huge.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
It's a big showcase and it's hard courts.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
So the singles champions it was announced, whoever wins for
the men and the women, they get equal prize money.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
Five million dollars. What five million dollars goes to the winner.
Speaker 7 (33:40):
May many many, many, many many many money.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Yeah, that's a that's a sweet check, let me tell you.
And of course the money has been going up in
the sport. But that is an absolute astonishing record if
you think about just ten years ago where tennis was
at all.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Right, let's jump into a little football.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
Hike.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Yeah, a little hike. I got this one.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
I said, hikke was going to be when many of
you asked me questions, and we would do that like
once a week. So I got this one from Charlie
who asked the usual question, what is going on Kate
with the Dallas Cowboys. Here's a question everybody asked me.
What do you know about Micah Parsons? Is this thing
(34:33):
going to get done or is he just going to
be on the sidelines. And yes, he has back issues.
I heard you talking about that the other day and
that he hasn't been on the practice field. But will
they get a deal done or not?
Speaker 3 (34:51):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
I think they have to get a deal done. It
would be egregious if Jerry Jones didn't get a deal
done with him. They need Micah Parsons. It just wouldn't
make any sense. He does have legitimate back issues, and
he did miss the practice and he wasn't even on
the practice field. You know, I guess he had back tightness.
(35:13):
But Dallas was seven to ten last year, not even
a five hundred team. They finished well below Washington and
of course Philadelphia, and they do have some good players.
They need someone like Parsons. They need him there defensively.
So to answer your question, will they get a deal done? Yes, yes, yes,
I would be absolutely stunned if something doesn't happen, because
(35:38):
it just absolutely makes no sense. It just makes no
sense whatsoever. All Right, here's the danger of these practices.
It's like been a string of injuries. The last day
of practice for the Houston Texans in West Virginia safety CJ.
Gardner Johnson with a right leg injury, and tests did
(36:02):
reveal on Thursday night late that the ACL is intact.
That's the good news, but they're still conducting some more
tests to determine the extent of the injury. There was
a scrimmage at Greenbrier Resort and he tackled one of
the wide receivers and after making contact, he crumbled to
the ground. He couldn't move his lower right leg and
(36:23):
he's on the ground writhing in pain. And the practice
just went completely silent. And then they say to themselves,
why did we do this? Now, they didn't say that,
but maybe they were asking themselves that in private.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I don't know. So not good though. You don't want
to see. You don't want to see that happen in
certainly not in a practice. And that's just.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
The wrong timing for that because it's working out the
kinks in training camp, and of course, how much time
do you have before you get to the regular season.
You go through preseason, then you get to the regular season.
So tick, tick tick, all right, let's turn to a
Major League Baseball scores and boy, we have a whole.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Slate of them.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
We'll see what we can get through here. Not as
many as usual, but a bunch of them anyway. So
the Nationals blanked, blanked by the A's six nothing. They
picked up their fifty first a Nationals Park. They haven't
had a lot to cheer about. They've eked out forty
five wins somehow, but they have not been playing good baseball.
(37:34):
It's been a tough season. Jacob Lopez struck out a
career high ten batters and seven to two thirds. That
made part of the big difference there. Colby Thomas hit
his first major league home run and drove in three,
and thus that was part of the deal. The Nationals
have lost seven of eight. Ooh, seven of eight.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Not good.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
We go even further with those ugly numbers. They are
tied for a season high twenty four games under five hundred.
Washington was outscored sixty one to twenty three during a
six game homestand against Milwaukee.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
And the A's. They need a quick turnaround, that's what
they need. They need they need somebody to come in
and rally them or something. They need change the lineup.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
The Mariners beat the White Socks in Seattle for three.
So the Mariners, I said this, they're quietly amassing a
lot of wins. Sixty second win and four Seattle fans,
they've had a lot to cheer about this year. Dominic
Cozone Canzone singled home the winning run and in the
(38:49):
eleventh and so it was a three game sweep of
the White socksking those sweeps for sure. Both teams scored
once in the tenth whole into interesting factoids from that
from that game, but it worked out in favor of
the Mariners. So Seattle welcomes Tampa Bay for weekend series
(39:10):
and Chicago returns home for a three game series against Cleveland.
They're looking for they're looking for something to cheer about
because it has been an ugly season for the White
tux Pirates beat the Reds seven. Nothing oh tough going
it was. It was Olivia Dunn's boyfriend, Paulie. He has
(39:35):
the right stuff. He's one of the best pitchers in baseball.
He struck out eight and six innings and then gets
the support Brian Reynolds and Henry Davis, homerd and the
Pirates beat the Reds. Like I said, so, you know,
for Paul Skeenes, this is his scoreless streak is twenty
seven to two third innings. He last allowed a run
(39:58):
June eighth, again Philadelphia. Wow, a minuscule e er, A
minuscule He is earning every cent of of his paycheck,
that's for sure. He's he's the He's the pitcher that
people are wishing that they had a lot of teams
(40:18):
that are struggling in the starting rotations. Braves knocked off
the Marlins eight six the final in that one is
played in Atlanta, Georgia. And if you look at what
happened in that game, Drake Baldwin homer twice, drove in
four runs. Made a big difference obviously, and Ozuna too.
(40:40):
It's power, power, power, and then some because Ozuna had
three hits for the Braves two who snapped a three
game skid after they were trailing six to two in
the sixth inning, so they were able to come back
and make that happen.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
It was a big pick.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
It was a big pickup for for them, for sure.
The Braves improved to fifty and twenty one against Miami.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
That's at home.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
That's their best record versus any NL East opponent at
home since the ballpark opened in twenty seventeen. If you
haven't been to that ballpark, it is an amazing, amazing,
amazing ball It is beautiful, absolutely beautiful. And so that's
a wrap when it comes to baseball. So how about that.
(41:29):
And it's interesting too when we look at this upcoming weekend,
there certainly is some things to talk about when it
comes to the world of golf.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
I'll be watching and I'm.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
Going to give you a full scoop on what it's
looking like when we talk about the Ryder Cup. Right now,
Jordan's speeth probably won't even make the team.
Speaker 2 (41:52):
But who's going to make the team? We'll talk about
it next week.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
Some great authors coming up next there in our virtual
green room. I am so thrilled to welcome to the show,
Sarah Mayori, because let me tell you, you are gonna feel
(42:18):
like you have just had a drink from a fire
hose of incredible information that is so useful to so
many people, so we are very pleased to welcome her
to author's corner here in America Tonight with me Kate Delaney.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
Check this out.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
One of the books we're gonna talk about is it's
a book that will help you identify abuse, gain insight
into the patterns that bind you, and offer practical, evidence
based strategies for healing.
Speaker 9 (42:47):
Who doesn't want that. It's designed to be a resource
that empowers you to take control of your future, build
your resilience. I love that word, and ultimately find peace.
And that's from her book that we're talking about, Breaking Chains,
a Guide to Overcoming interpersonal violence and reclaiming your strength.
She's a mental health counselor. She knows what she's talking about,
(43:09):
and she's been through it herself. Sarah, thanks so much
for coming on.
Speaker 6 (43:13):
Thank you so much. Kit. I'm happy to be here.
I appreciate the invite.
Speaker 1 (43:18):
So let's talk about You heard what I said there.
You definitely have the knowledge from what you do for
a living, but also it happened to you personally.
Speaker 9 (43:27):
Tell us your story.
Speaker 6 (43:29):
Yes, Kit, absolutely, this time from our lived experience because
I went through a very difficult, toxic relationship about ten
or twelve years ago. The journey began after seven being
in the marriage for seven years, and before that I
had been with this person. We had known each other
for a number of years, about seven years before. But
(43:52):
once I got married, things went south. So essentially my
journy as a married woman was not the best, and
it progressively got was. And when I decided I needed
to get out of this toxic relationship, I was lost.
I did not know what to do. I had no
(44:12):
resources to go by, and I also the resources were
very very limited, and I obviously divorced is a legal matter,
so I found myself constantly going to court back and forth,
and that was in itself also very very traumatic to me.
So once I went through the healing journey, and healing
is a journey, it's a process. I'm still healing, but
(44:34):
I have come to a point whereby I knew in
hindsight and looking back, I needed to put out a
tool out there that could help somebody going through that
situation in distress and be able to get image to
the next side. And that's why I decided to put
a resource out there, So hence the book Breaking Chains.
Speaker 9 (44:57):
Yeah, and we should say we're so close to you, PhD.
So many good things like that have happened for you
since you were brave and you broke the chains.
Speaker 6 (45:07):
Absolutely, because when I was going through that toxicity, I
almost lost myself. I did not know that I had
the strength to go back to school, even though the
wheel power was there, but the drive was absolutely not available.
And also, once you're told that that's not the route
you need to go, and you're listening to the abuse
(45:28):
of time and time again, I should not be a priority,
So you become someone's almost someone's slave, because you know
you've lost yourself and you're always catering to this person,
and they become domineering, and the more you lose yourself,
the more control they get over you. And once you
(45:48):
get out of the other side, it's like you're discovering yourself.
And that's when you realize, oh, myself as team had
gone so low. I have done so much work on
myself to get myself to imagine again and also be
able to accomplish so much. I bought a house after that,
(46:09):
I have been able to reach out to people. I
have been able to establish my own business, and life
is good. Once you realize that Oh my goodness, I
had all these talents that I had sat on just
because of one experience. And the other thing that the
book talks about is the freedom and also the slate.
(46:32):
You get a clean slate every day and you can
rewrite your story. Just because you went through something difficult.
That doesn't mean that you need to be stuck there. Yes,
you have to recognize that, yes, that happens, because it
is still a part of the journey. And perhaps if
I didn't go through that experience, I would not be
able to write as much as I do. So even
(46:54):
though I went through a very difficult situation, I always
tell people have to adopt a spirit of gratitude because
thank be thankful for what you went through, because if
that journey did not happen, I would not be here,
maybe even today discussing this. So take what you can.
Life is going to give us caveballs. But it doesn't
(47:15):
matter what we go through. It's how it's when we
or even how we get there, but it's when we
are live on the other side, and that's the destination
and it should be for everybody listening.
Speaker 2 (47:27):
I love that.
Speaker 9 (47:28):
So, I mean you're really saying it. You've said it
that what do you hope people take away when they
read your book, which you can get for a song
by the way, on Amazon, Barnes, Noble, wherever great books
are sold. What do you hope Sarah, they take away?
Speaker 6 (47:43):
The one message I want to tell people is that
life is a journey and you do not have to
be stuck in circumstances there you will. Tomorrow is another day.
We get as slate and we can rewrite our story.
We have choices to make, and once you make a choice,
live by that choice and be resilient, walk through that journey.
(48:04):
Make sure that you are taking care of yourself, because
it all starts with you. If you do not take
that responsibility of making the right choices, you will never
go make a step. But once you take that choice,
you decide that Okay, this is what I want to do,
the rest will come into play. The world is always waiting.
(48:27):
It's waiting to help you get through through whatever you're
going through. And also I tell people that there are
so many resources out there. Go look for what fits you,
throat your boat, look for what that works for you,
because every experience is very very different and it's very
very personal and unique.
Speaker 2 (48:46):
To you.
Speaker 6 (48:46):
Even though on the surface it looks the same, your
experience is unique to you. So make sure that you're
taking the resources that are able, that are out there.
You're taking care of yourself. Make sure you're also sleeping well,
because you cannot tell people what to do if you're
not doing yourself. And then the other thing too that
I hope to do is to make sure that also
(49:07):
I'm leaving a legacy of hope, a legacy of determination,
a legacy of yes, pulling people from where they are.
I want to have a support group for people that
have gone through this, so we can all work together.
You can walk alone, but I think when you work
with other people it's also incredibly beneficial because we are
(49:28):
not all the same. Some people get broken and stay there.
But again that's where mental health comes in, because as
mental health care comes in, because when you have gone
through that incredible toxicity, you get broken mental health, mental health,
your psychological situation gets affected, Your emotional aspect also gets affected.
(49:52):
So it's a combination of so many things. But the
one thing that you want to do is make that choice.
And once you make that decision to leave a toxic relationship,
the rest will come, will come naturally. So that's what
I would want to say to people.
Speaker 1 (50:10):
And I want to briefly mention you have two other
books too, because you mentioned the word resilience. Empowered by
Resilience is one of your books that, in fact was
the first one that you wrote. Resilience is so important,
isn't it.
Speaker 6 (50:21):
Yes, it is Empowered by Resilience A path two unstop
uple growth. So yes, even through the journey of adversity.
It's you've got to grow and grow, lips and bounds.
Absolutely yes.
Speaker 9 (50:37):
And how about your You've got one that's just coming out.
Tell us about that one.
Speaker 6 (50:40):
Actually it's out. The next one that came out in
June is Mental Health Awakening Empower your Mind and Soul,
a bruprint for mental strength and wellness, because you have
to have that mental capacity and mental strength. I just
spoke in an event not days ago on Sunday, and
(51:01):
I told people that even though you may have the
whole wow to yourself, you may have a lot of money,
money does not equate one hundred percent success. Even though
a little bit of money in the bank it's helpful,
but if you do not have the mental capacity. It
all starts from here. It all starts from the brain,
It all starts from your mental health. If you're taking
(51:21):
care of your mental health your physical health, then you'll
be here to enjoy the rest of the the of
your life. And then the awareness piece too, is very,
very critically important because, like I said, you've got to
make sure that you're hydrating, especially in the summertime. I'm
in the East coast. It's very hot right now. So
you're hydrating, you're eating right, you're taking your environments, and
(51:44):
again you're also making sure that you're exercising a little movement.
Speaker 2 (51:48):
Take a walk.
Speaker 6 (51:49):
Look at nature. The other day, I just went out
and looked at the beautiful creations that the universe has
given us. So let's do that more. And then make
sure that you're doing all that and setting goals for yourself.
And it doesn't matter. Maybe it's very little goals, very
subter goals, but make sure that you're walking towards that.
Because if you write your goals and you're genering your
(52:11):
success and extensor yourself some grace, even though you may
not have accomplished task yesterday, tomorrow is another day. Let's
do that. There's always a light of latannel, but more importantly,
make sure that you are doing the right things for
your own self and then the wild will blossom and
making back just by doing that.
Speaker 9 (52:31):
Wow, Sarah, you are a delight. Please go get her books,
all of them. Thank you for coming on.
Speaker 6 (52:36):
