Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to West Michigan's morning News. Steve Kelly, Brent Pikita,
Lawrence Smith. It is Monday, May fifth, twenty twenty five.
Our Trending segment brought to you by Consumer's Energy, dedicated
to Michigan and the communities We serch What's not.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Online and what talks now at Woodradio Dot how.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
This is the Trending Now report on Wood Radio. The
United States in Iran remain in talks with each other
over a new Iran nuclear deal to stop Iran from
increasing its new program. US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee
telling Foxes One Nation under Brian Killmead, there's only one
peaceful solution to this issue.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
I hope talks can result in something where Iran completely
walks away from nuclear ambitions and realizes that both President
Trump and the Israelis have said you're never going to
have a nuclear weapon. So do they understand that the better?

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Former Vice President Mike Pence honored with the John F.
Kennedy Profile and Courage Award for refusing to go through
with President Donald Trump's request to overthrow the results of
the twenty twenty presidential election despite a mob of Trump
supporters here is former Vice President Pence.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
The American people know that whatever differences we may have,
the Constitution is the common ground on which we stand.
It's where we come to settle our differences, and it's
where we're going to forge a future of security and prosperity.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
And President Trump is planning to impose one hundred percent
tariffs on movies that are made outside the United States
other nations, a lot of them.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
I've stolen our moving in district, and I'm saying, if
they're not willing to make a movie inside the United States,
and we should have a tariff when movies should come in.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
There's still a lot of questions there, including those that
would apply to films on streaming services like Netflix. Netflix
will keep you posted at Woodradio dot com.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
Also trending this morning. He's just like us. Troit Lyons
head coach Dan Campbell got the joy of moving his
daughter out of Michigan State over the weekend. Oh this
video posted by his wife Holly. She writes, it's Michigan
State move out Day. FYI. Moving a love sack out

(02:17):
is a tad harder than moving it in. You can
see him using one of those like Giant roly Bins
to take this out to his truck.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:25):
He then loads the love sack into the back of
his truck, lays on it to try to smosh it
down enough to close the flatbed before he takes off,
while his wife and daughter are hysterically laughing.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
It is is funny a thing. It makes him look
like every.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
Dad, every dad on campus, trying to move someone out.

Speaker 6 (02:43):
Hey, listen, you gotta bite their knee caps off, Steve
if you have to.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
But it's Drew, you said, you like he could have
had a team. Nope, it is just him and his
son pushing this love sack into a truck and being like,
you're never bringing this back to campus.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
I can think that ly Bin looks familiar. I may
have used it to move into back in nineteen eighty four.
So I'll let you know.

Speaker 6 (03:04):
That's my love about Dan Campbell though he's your average dad,
great thing, and by the way, is the NFL coach.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
Of the line.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
And but he's in a Ford tremmor. Yeah, that's what
those things started.

Speaker 6 (03:14):
Well, like this morning, waking up with a lot of rain, right,
little muddy. It was certainly muddy on Saturday for the
one hundred and fifty first run for the Roses. We're
talking about the Kentucky Derby, and here's the way it
went down.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
Journalism is on the move as they turned for homent
Sovereignty is coming with him on the outside. The two
of them go right by with U Burlock. Journalism and
Sovereignty nose to nose down to the last sixteenth of
a mile. Sovereignty has taken the lead. Journalism is second fourth,

(03:46):
the outside by ass third. But it will be Sovereignty
to roll the Kentucky Journalism.

Speaker 6 (03:55):
You should have seen the mud all over the horses.
It's amazing to me. And didn't have blinders on. You
would think it would throw him off. The jockey was
filled with mud with the interview, but congratulations. Sovereignty had
seven to one odds out of the eighteen gate out,
dueling the favorite Journalism at three to one. It was
jockey Junior Elvarado's first Derby win. It was trainer Bill

(04:17):
Mott's second Derby win, but it was one of those
where his horse had finished second and they had to
disqualify the winning horse back in twenty nineteen, so he
won this one, as he said, kind of for real.
The way it should be three point one million dollars
to the winning horse on Saturday.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
Whoa
