Rosie's Friday Leftovers

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Friday, fake news you can trust from the Babylon
b Iran wins a three hundred billion dollar cash prize
for placing second in a war. And now for the
real thing. Less than twenty four hours after the MoU
of Iran was signed, it's falling apart. Israel has already
violated one of the terms. They will not vacate southern

(00:22):
Lebanon and will not stop shooting at the terrorists there.
The Iranians announced they will be charging tolls on all
shipping in the Straits. And here's the worst sign. The
first round of negotiations in Switzerland were postponed. Don't count
Nebraska's two Republican US senators as cheerleaders for this yet.

(00:43):
Pete Ricketts wants more clarity on how these lowers consumer prices.
Deb Fisher has questions about how we're going to verify
Iran's the side of the bargain and why they will
be allowed to still build and maintain ballistic missiles. They're
not alone. Wicker of Mississippi, Crew of Texas, Graham of
South Carolina, and both Thoon and Rounds of South Dakota

art endorsing the plan. Trump responded by calling them all fools.
You know, nothing is more inspirational than the retelling of
why one of us wins the Presidential Medal of Honor.
The President pinned several more around the next of these
heroes Yesterday, Major James Capers, then Lieutenant's second Lieutenant Capers

(01:26):
and his remarkable valor in Vietnam, how he led a
nine man force on a mission to find an ENVC
base camp, encountering superior enemy forces multiple times. On the
final day, his patrol was ambushed. He sustained serious wounds
a broken leg, still refusing evacuation until all the other

(01:47):
marines were safe. Something curious is happening in American religion.
A visible group of young adults are embracing Catholicism. Gallup
did a survey found that young men's real religious attendance
at Catholic mass is up seven percent in two years. Now,
why might that be? Here's a thought. Young people today

(02:08):
are surrounded by updates, rebrands, apps. The Catholic faith provides
just the opposite. The prayers, the chants, the rituals, the
liturgical music. Age gives faith weight. Maybe the old matters
to the young who don't want a religion that bends
every time the culture sneezes to your health. To existing

(02:31):
cancer drugs. The trozol, which is used on breast cancer patients,
and rhinotecan, which treats colon cancer, have been tested on
lab mice, and doctor say those tests have curbed a
neuro degeneration of Alzheimer's. Human testing will begin soon. This
year's US Open Golf Championship ended after just ten holes

for former world number one Jason Day. He withdraws can't
shake this nagging back pain. He was seven over after
ten divorcing after ten years recording artist Jelly Roll and
his wife of ten years, Bunny x O. It's been
rocky ever since he publicly admitted cheating on her. Sunday

(03:14):
is Father's Day? Shouldn't it be? Dad's Day? Is one
day enough dads are forced to endure childhood without the epidural.
When his children grow, he never feels entirely worthy of
their worship. This worries him, which explains why fathers grow
old faster than other people. Moms can cry where it shows,

(03:35):
while dads just stand there beaming on the outside, dying
on the inside. Dad's hearts are strong, which means they
have to be broken from time to time, or we'd
never know what's inside. They hurry away from the breakfast
table each day to that office or factory job, making
a bet with insurance companies about who's going to live longer,

(03:56):
and one day they lose. But Dad's enjoy an earthly
immortal and the bet is paid off to the part
of him he leaves behind. Don't yet know where dads
go when they die, but you can bet they won't
be happy unless there is work to do. You won't
find them sitting on a cloud. He'll be too busy
oiling the gates, smoothing the way. In this week's Tournament
