Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Hey there everybody, and welcome to Morning Run. It is Monday, June fifteenth.
00:00:10
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes as we continue our runs from Amsterdam as of now. Congrats to the well I say congrats to the Netherlands. We watched their match with the locals yesterday and it was going really really well until it wasn't.
00:00:25
Speaker 1: Until Japan tied it in the end to too, but it was so it's so much fun watching soccer and World Cup soccer when you have the home team playing and you're in the home team city, it's awesome.
00:00:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that was awesome. Oh. Yes, we continue on the road, but we do not stop Morning Running with you. Going to be making stops in Brazil, making a stop back in our hometown of New York City. Also make a stop on the south lawn of the White House, make a stop in Missouri. The baby owl of your grocery store is where we're going to have a leg of the run this morning. And also we're making a stop at the Weekend Box Office with ropes. Let's start with the good news.
00:01:03
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a question mark question marketing in right, because the information is coming from the White House. But yes, we're told it's good news, because we're told there is a deal. The US and Iran have reached a new deal that will immediately open the Strait of Horror Moves. This all according to President Trump.
00:01:21
Speaker 2: Yes, and it does appear that, yes, the Iranians have put out some indications that yes, there is a deal of some kind in place. Now. We first heard from the President in this social media post. He said, quote, the deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all. I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Horror Moves, and simultaneously, herewith authorize the immediate removal of the US naval blockade. Ships of the world, start your engines, let the oil flow. He took complete credit, like I could just flip a switch.
00:01:53
Speaker 1: It really is like he is oz behind the scenes, controlling everything. He goes on to say, the great deal will bring peace and security to the whole region. Many presidents have tried to make peace with Iran and all have failed. Before me, the leaders of the region have, for the first time founder president who can help them achieve real peace with the opening of the strait upon the signing of the deal on Friday, for purposes of mind removal, oil will flow on both ends again for the region and the world.
00:02:23
Speaker 3: It's like he's writing his.
00:02:25
Speaker 1: Own entry into the next Nobel piece.
00:02:30
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, he's bringing peace by ending the war he started.
00:02:34
Speaker 3: He is the only president to have ever done so. He started the war.
00:02:38
Speaker 2: Okay, we were up late. We're a little too much sarcasm, little too heavy, so we'll back it off.
00:02:43
Speaker 3: Is that you're not so subtle way saying Amy, stop talking.
00:02:46
Speaker 2: No, it was me too, and he pulled me into it. But in addition to the opening of the straight Orford moves, the deal reportedly calls for a sixty day ceasefire in order to allow for more talks about what else but the nuclear issue. So, Rold, it appears that's deal hasn't been worked out. So we agreed to not keep shooting at each other for the sake of continuing to talk about this nuclear stuff. But yes, signing ceremonial supposed to happen on Friday in Switzerland, all right.
00:03:11
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, the weather held up for President Trump's birthday. UFC fight on the South Lawn. Extreme thunderstorms were in the forecast, but they mostly spared the DC area. I think at nine pm Eastern time, there was one lightning strike six miles away. That's as close as it got. And that would have been a logistical nightmare with the number of people gathered to watch in so few covered areas, that would have been tough.
00:03:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the President did make it out. He watched. They call it cage sides, not rings side. You sit cage, said, his first lady was there. He was sitting next to Dana White as well, and looked like the whole Trump clan was there, all of them, the kids, their spouses, they were grand kids all around. Looked like the whole cabinet was there as well. Seven matches after the third, the crowd this is a nice moment, right The crowd start singing Happy Birthday to the President.
00:04:02
Speaker 1: Ah. Yes, but they someone wrote there was no need to have judges because every single fight ended in a knockout, so no judgment needed. There was also we have to talk about this a disgusting moment after one of the matches with UFC fighter Josh Hoke It he was talking to Joe Rogan and in his post fight speech, Hokit praised President Trump and then ended with this, and lastly, Michelle Obama is a man?
00:04:29
Speaker 3: Am I right America?
00:04:32
Speaker 2: Yeah? It was, Yeah, it makes no sense. It was disgusting, It was it was unnecessary, It was what point was he trying to make? It was really what an ugly, ugly thing to say.
00:04:42
Speaker 3: And yes it was disgusting.
00:04:43
Speaker 1: But then the camera panned to Trump and a lot of people put this online that showed him with a half smile on his face after the remark. The crowd bowed and cheered simultaneously at the remark. There was reaction and it was mixed. But it was just terrible and just unnecessary and disgusting. I can't think of a better word. Trump, however, left the fights straight for the G seven summit, so he is on his way. Looks like he got a nap in possibly cage side to prepare for the big trip.
00:05:12
Speaker 2: You'll see that video too. But yes, folks are saying but that this was late. I mean the last fight didn't start till after midnight.
00:05:18
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, when we were already up because we're obviously ahead here in Amsterdam, and I was reading live reporting of the president.
00:05:26
Speaker 3: Yes, while we were up.
00:05:27
Speaker 2: For the day, still cage fights on the lawn.
00:05:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay at.
00:05:31
Speaker 2: Midnight, that's awesome. Well, continuing here on the run, the president's name has been removed from the Kennedy Center, and we'll just have to take the president's word for it. Rose because a judge, as you'll remember, gave the administration a deadline of Friday night to remove the name Trump from the center wall on the outside. They said, essentially, you shouldn't have put it up in the first place because it was illegal, so had till Friday night midnight to take it down.
00:05:58
Speaker 1: It was a little past midnight when they started working on it, but there was some last minute legal wrangling which delayed along with the weather allegedly, but workers did begin the process of taking down his name, but first they spent eight hours putting up scaffolding and huge white tarps which have prevented the public from seeing his name being removed. And the tarp is still preventing the public from seeing that his name is gone.
00:06:22
Speaker 3: And we have no indication of when that tarp might come down.
00:06:25
Speaker 2: We should take we should take bets. When's it gonna come down? Is he just gonna punish the center and not let any name be shown outside the Kennedy Center.
00:06:33
Speaker 1: He's now making it a big deal for the unveiling. They should just they'll probably take it down like some random day at three am.
00:06:40
Speaker 2: I continue to go on the run here now. Following the nixt historic NBA Finals win, over the weekend, celebrations took over the city, and yes, there was some chaos in some areas. Tens of thousands of fans were in the streets around Massive Square Garden. Police made it total, they tell us now of sixty three arrests related ropes to the Knicks libration.
00:07:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it did get violent in some moments. A total of ten police officers were injured in the mayhem, including one who was punched in the face and another who was hit by a glass bottle. A seventeen year old was shot near MSG a few blocks north of it.
00:07:14
Speaker 3: He is recovering in the hospital.
00:07:15
Speaker 1: Four other fans were either slashed or stabbed, but their injuries, thankfully, were not life threatening.
00:07:21
Speaker 2: We also got police cars damaged, at least five, windshields smashed. School buses were set on fire or damage at least five by that account, More celebrating on Thursday. Of course, there will be a victory parade in Lower Manhattan, the Avenue of Champions as you call it, through their very particular route. Don't expect this kind of rowdiness, but it is. I mean, I cannot imagine the scene in Lower Manhattan.
00:07:44
Speaker 3: Fifty three years in the making.
00:07:46
Speaker 2: I cannot imagine how many people are going to show up for the last one we saw were the Liberty at Liberty.
00:07:51
Speaker 1: This will be a little bit different, yes, down Broadway, but hundreds of thousands of fans they expect to line the streets.
00:07:57
Speaker 3: What could possibly go wrong?
00:07:59
Speaker 2: Oh, this is going to be so it'll be middle of the day of the.
00:08:02
Speaker 3: Middle of the day is different involved as well?
00:08:04
Speaker 1: Yeah midnight on a Saturday night versus Yeah, middle of the day. Big different crowd, different crowd, all right, next up on the run. This is a tragic This is a horrific story out of Missouri. Twelve people were killed when their sky diving plane crashed on Sunday, and it happened with a lot of their family members watching. You know, when people go up to skydive, the family friends stay behind to watch it all happen.
00:08:32
Speaker 2: Ooh, cameras rolling. But this was in Butler, Missouri. This is a little south of Kansas City. Plane had just taken off where it crashed into a field, burst into flames. The investigation is underway, but this is an area, this is what they do. It's a lot of skydiving that happens in this area. And it's just who knows what happened in suggestion that there was a.
00:08:50
Speaker 1: Loss of power, engine failure, because it knows it just lost you see, it never even got above one hundred feet, so it just had started taking off, and there were experienced skydives on that plane.
00:09:01
Speaker 3: So what a sad story.
00:09:02
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, two helicopters collided in Rio on Sunday, killing all six who were on board.
00:09:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, and authority to say among those on the passenger list with singer, comedian, songwriter Oliver Tree, Now that might need to be a name. A lot of you old familiar with your kids probably are. Now they haven't made a positive identity, but they do say they do believe, yes, Oliver Tree is among the dead here. But he gained fame with some viral hits, including Life Goes On was his big one in twenty twenty one. But he was on tour and performed down there, has a world tour going on. He's known for if you see him, you might go okay, I've seen that because he has such a look to him as his funny bowl cut and he always wears his very bright I guess eighties beyond colors.
00:09:45
Speaker 1: I looked at his picture too, but I'm not familiar with him or his music, but certainly an incredibly sad story.
00:09:50
Speaker 2: Thirty two years old. And you know how I got the heads up, Sabine. Sabine sends a text. Then did you hear?
00:09:57
Speaker 1: So?
00:09:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was very familiar to a lot of folks.
00:09:59
Speaker 1: Wow. Next up on the run, Senator Mitch McConnell is in the hospital this morning, and as his spokesperson put it, he is receiving excellent care. He's eighty four years old and he's had a lot of health issues, including a really bad fall there in the Capital, over the last several years. But his office did not go into any detail about exactly why McConnell was admitted to the hospital this time and exactly what type of treatment he is receiving, but certainly folks who are wishing for his speedy recovery.
00:10:27
Speaker 2: All right, Our next leg of the run now takes us, so as you said, Robes to the grocery aisle where you find your baby formula. We're talking about botulism again in baby formula. Three infants have been sickened, yes, with botulism, which is led now to another nationwide baby formula recall. Whole Milk organic infant formula made by Nara Organics has been recalled after three babies who are between the ages of two and five months had to be hospitalized.
00:10:57
Speaker 3: Oh that is so scary.
00:10:58
Speaker 1: One case was in California, the other in Pennsylvania, and then another in Washington State. The formula in question was sold between July of twenty twenty five and June of this year. And remember this all comes after the buy heart recall last year that basically just shut down that entire company. I mean they had to recall every single last drop over their infant formula.
00:11:21
Speaker 2: Everything they ever made. They couldn't guarantee any of it was safe. We'll stay with us on this Monday morning run. When we come back. Some extraordinary stuff happened at the box office over the weekend, and something pretty extraordinary happened to the Carolina Panthers last night as well as they hear. All right, we continue on this Monday morning run by saying congrats to the Carolina Panthers. They beat the Vegas Golden Knights last night won the Stanley Cup when the series four games to two, and their first championship in some twenty years. Robes, I normally would be watching this, but we got so much going on and we're in the wrong time zone.
00:12:01
Speaker 1: Well, I was gonna ask, because d does it usually get usurped in terms of coverage with the NBA Finals. It's always over that, they always overlapping. And maybe we just cared a lot more about the NBA Finals this year because our knicks were in it. Because normally I do feel like Stanley Cup is something we watch, but I didn't see one second of it this time around.
00:12:22
Speaker 2: You know what, normally you wouldn't see one second of the NBA Finals.
00:12:25
Speaker 3: That's true, That is true. That's a fair statement. All right.
00:12:28
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, It's official, Michael is the biggest music biopic biopic we have got biopick.
00:12:36
Speaker 3: I don't know how to say it.
00:12:37
Speaker 2: But which one are we going with? Biopic or biopic?
00:12:41
Speaker 1: I like biopic but I feel like it's biopic anyway, it's the biggest one ever.
00:12:47
Speaker 2: Yes, the movie, which traises Michael Jackson's early rise, has now overtaken Bohemian Rhapsody at the box office and has made nine hundred and thirty two plus million dollars. It is the biggest music bio movie ever.
00:13:03
Speaker 1: All right, and for the final leg of the run, let's stay with our movie theme. And it was a scarily good weekend at the box office. I love this Steven Spielberg, I really want to see this. His alien flick Disclosure Day came in at number one with forty four million domestically and ninety three million globally.
00:13:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Emily Blunt is in this movie.
00:13:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're seeing it.
00:13:26
Speaker 2: Oh, we gotta see this.
00:13:27
Speaker 1: And this was This was Spielberg's best box office premiere in nearly a decade. All the headlines are like, Spielberg is back, so this is gonna be a fun one.
00:13:36
Speaker 3: Obviously.
00:13:36
Speaker 1: Jaws basically brought the movie theaters back to life in the seventies, and folks are saying, this is this is one of those just he's really good at those monster flicks, those big epic monster flanks.
00:13:46
Speaker 2: It's weird. He's a guy who has given he's given credit for creating the summer blockbus. Yes, just the idea of it. Yes, he created it. Oh that's the.
00:13:57
Speaker 1: Et also among them, Yes yeah, I mean those are just some of the biggest ones. But we I'm excited to see this one, but also exciting. The number two and three films this weekend continue to dominate the headlines, and I would argue number four, so number two, three, and four all horror movie adjacent at least. But Horror Movie Obsession earned another nineteen million dollars thirty four million worldwide, bringing its total to one hundred and eighty eight million domestically two hundred eighty six million globally. It outgrossed its opening weekend numbers every single weekend since it came out five weeks ago. Can you because it's opening weekend it made seventeen million. In its fifth weekend made nineteen I would like.
00:14:41
Speaker 2: To see another or some history on that. If another film has ever done that for five straight weeks it has done better than its first week, I would like to see the history on that. I've never heard of that before.
00:14:53
Speaker 1: But falling to number three was scary movie. It brought in another fourteen and a half million domestically, but it also held the number two position globe with thirty seven million, so it's kind of interesting.
00:15:02
Speaker 3: I don't know that I've seen that before.
00:15:04
Speaker 2: Going better internationalley, it took a tough drop from its first it did, it did.
00:15:07
Speaker 3: It was like a seventy percent drop.
00:15:09
Speaker 1: But the other note, number four is that other horror hit created by another twenty something YouTuber, back Rooms. It came and forth with another twelve million domestically and another twenty three million worldwide. So that's those two horror movies are still hoppin weeks and weeks and weeks after they came out.
00:15:28
Speaker 2: Spielberg is being trailed in the box office by a twenty six year old YouTuber, and two spots behind that is a twenty year old you can sye. That's pretty fun.
00:15:38
Speaker 3: That's pretty fun, all right.
00:15:39
Speaker 1: Our quote of the day on this Monday, it was a little indulgent, because well, we're traveling, we're jumping on planes and trains and experiencing the world right now while working, and it's fun. But I loved this quote. Travel breaks the illusion that your life is the only one.
00:15:55
Speaker 2: Possible In life is the one you're living, Yes, currently is the only There are other options for your life. Yea, you get to see them. Okay, I had to put it together for a second.
00:16:06
Speaker 1: Yes, and I just thought it's cool because it creates this a. It creates possibilities that you hadn't even considered in your own life. But it also allows you to view We talked about this as we go around, and we we're big people watchers. I think people who listen to the podcast know and you do see things, and you experience things, and you can view things differently when you see them through other people, and you can only really get that when you travel to their country.
00:16:30
Speaker 2: I've been talking about that a lot here. We've never been to Amsterdam and heard a lot about it, heard specific things about it, but now we have an understanding of it that kind of flies in the face of what our impression was. So yes, better understanding, but.
00:16:45
Speaker 3: It also just opens up like where could I live? What could I do?
00:16:48
Speaker 2: Well?
00:16:48
Speaker 3: You know, it's just very cool. So travel breaks.
00:16:51
Speaker 1: The illusion that your life is the only one possible. And with that, everyone, we appreciate you listening to us as always on Ami Robots and I'm TJ.
00:17:00
Speaker 2: Holmes will be running with you soon.

00:02:38

Speaker 3: Fifty three years in the making.
00:07:46
Speaker 2: I cannot imagine how many people are going to show up for the last one we saw were the Liberty at Liberty.
00:07:51
Speaker 1: This will be a little bit different, yes, down Broadway, but hundreds of thousands of fans they expect to line the streets.
00:07:57
Speaker 3: What could possibly go wrong?
00:07:59
Speaker 2: Oh, this is going to be so it'll be middle of the day of the.
00:08:02
Speaker 3: Middle of the day is different involved as well?
00:08:04
Speaker 1: Yeah midnight on a Saturday night versus Yeah, middle of the day. Big different crowd, different crowd, all right, next up on the run. This is a tragic This is a horrific story out of Missouri. Twelve people were killed when their sky diving plane crashed on Sunday, and it happened with a lot of their family members watching. You know, when people go up to skydive, the family friends stay behind to watch it all happen.
00:08:32
Speaker 2: Ooh, cameras rolling. But this was in Butler, Missouri. This is a little south of Kansas City. Plane had just taken off where it crashed into a field, burst into flames. The investigation is underway, but this is an area, this is what they do. It's a lot of skydiving that happens in this area. And it's just who knows what happened in suggestion that there was a.
00:08:50
Speaker 1: Loss of power, engine failure, because it knows it just lost you see, it never even got above one hundred feet, so it just had started taking off, and there were experienced skydives on that plane.
00:09:01
Speaker 3: So what a sad story.
00:09:02
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, two helicopters collided in Rio on Sunday, killing all six who were on board.
00:09:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, and authority to say among those on the passenger list with singer, comedian, songwriter Oliver Tree, Now that might need to be a name. A lot of you old familiar with your kids probably are. Now they haven't made a positive identity, but they do say they do believe, yes, Oliver Tree is among the dead here. But he gained fame with some viral hits, including Life Goes On was his big one in twenty twenty one. But he was on tour and performed down there, has a world tour going on. He's known for if you see him, you might go okay, I've seen that because he has such a look to him as his funny bowl cut and he always wears his very bright I guess eighties beyond colors.
00:09:45
Speaker 1: I looked at his picture too, but I'm not familiar with him or his music, but certainly an incredibly sad story.
00:09:50
Speaker 2: Thirty two years old. And you know how I got the heads up, Sabine. Sabine sends a text. Then did you hear?
00:09:57
Speaker 1: So?
00:09:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was very familiar to a lot of folks.
00:09:59
Speaker 1: Wow. Next up on the run, Senator Mitch McConnell is in the hospital this morning, and as his spokesperson put it, he is receiving excellent care. He's eighty four years old and he's had a lot of health issues, including a really bad fall there in the Capital, over the last several years. But his office did not go into any detail about exactly why McConnell was admitted to the hospital this time and exactly what type of treatment he is receiving, but certainly folks who are wishing for his speedy recovery.
00:10:27
Speaker 2: All right, Our next leg of the run now takes us, so as you said, Robes to the grocery aisle where you find your baby formula. We're talking about botulism again in baby formula. Three infants have been sickened, yes, with botulism, which is led now to another nationwide baby formula recall. Whole Milk organic infant formula made by Nara Organics has been recalled after three babies who are between the ages of two and five months had to be hospitalized.
00:10:57
Speaker 3: Oh that is so scary.
00:10:58
Speaker 1: One case was in California, the other in Pennsylvania, and then another in Washington State. The formula in question was sold between July of twenty twenty five and June of this year. And remember this all comes after the buy heart recall last year that basically just shut down that entire company. I mean they had to recall every single last drop over their infant formula.
00:11:21
Speaker 2: Everything they ever made. They couldn't guarantee any of it was safe. We'll stay with us on this Monday morning run. When we come back. Some extraordinary stuff happened at the box office over the weekend, and something pretty extraordinary happened to the Carolina Panthers last night as well as they hear. All right, we continue on this Monday morning run by saying congrats to the Carolina Panthers. They beat the Vegas Golden Knights last night won the Stanley Cup when the series four games to two, and their first championship in some twenty years. Robes, I normally would be watching this, but we got so much going on and we're in the wrong time zone.
00:12:01
Speaker 1: Well, I was gonna ask, because d does it usually get usurped in terms of coverage with the NBA Finals. It's always over that, they always overlapping. And maybe we just cared a lot more about the NBA Finals this year because our knicks were in it. Because normally I do feel like Stanley Cup is something we watch, but I didn't see one second of it this time around.
00:12:22
Speaker 2: You know what, normally you wouldn't see one second of the NBA Finals.
00:12:25
Speaker 3: That's true, That is true. That's a fair statement. All right.
00:12:28
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, It's official, Michael is the biggest music biopic biopic we have got biopick.
00:12:36
Speaker 3: I don't know how to say it.
00:12:37
Speaker 2: But which one are we going with? Biopic or biopic?
00:12:41
Speaker 1: I like biopic but I feel like it's biopic anyway, it's the biggest one ever.
00:12:47
Speaker 2: Yes, the movie, which traises Michael Jackson's early rise, has now overtaken Bohemian Rhapsody at the box office and has made nine hundred and thirty two plus million dollars. It is the biggest music bio movie ever.
00:13:03
Speaker 1: All right, and for the final leg of the run, let's stay with our movie theme. And it was a scarily good weekend at the box office. I love this Steven Spielberg, I really want to see this. His alien flick Disclosure Day came in at number one with forty four million domestically and ninety three million globally.
00:13:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Emily Blunt is in this movie.
00:13:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're seeing it.
00:13:26
Speaker 2: Oh, we gotta see this.
00:13:27
Speaker 1: And this was This was Spielberg's best box office premiere in nearly a decade. All the headlines are like, Spielberg is back, so this is gonna be a fun one.
00:13:36
Speaker 3: Obviously.
00:13:36
Speaker 1: Jaws basically brought the movie theaters back to life in the seventies, and folks are saying, this is this is one of those just he's really good at those monster flicks, those big epic monster flanks.
00:13:46
Speaker 2: It's weird. He's a guy who has given he's given credit for creating the summer blockbus. Yes, just the idea of it. Yes, he created it. Oh that's the.
00:13:57
Speaker 1: Et also among them, Yes yeah, I mean those are just some of the biggest ones. But we I'm excited to see this one, but also exciting. The number two and three films this weekend continue to dominate the headlines, and I would argue number four, so number two, three, and four all horror movie adjacent at least. But Horror Movie Obsession earned another nineteen million dollars thirty four million worldwide, bringing its total to one hundred and eighty eight million domestically two hundred eighty six million globally. It outgrossed its opening weekend numbers every single weekend since it came out five weeks ago. Can you because it's opening weekend it made seventeen million. In its fifth weekend made nineteen I would like.
00:14:41
Speaker 2: To see another or some history on that. If another film has ever done that for five straight weeks it has done better than its first week, I would like to see the history on that. I've never heard of that before.
00:14:53
Speaker 1: But falling to number three was scary movie. It brought in another fourteen and a half million domestically, but it also held the number two position globe with thirty seven million, so it's kind of interesting.
00:15:02
Speaker 3: I don't know that I've seen that before.
00:15:04
Speaker 2: Going better internationalley, it took a tough drop from its first it did, it did.
00:15:07
Speaker 3: It was like a seventy percent drop.
00:15:09
Speaker 1: But the other note, number four is that other horror hit created by another twenty something YouTuber, back Rooms. It came and forth with another twelve million domestically and another twenty three million worldwide. So that's those two horror movies are still hoppin weeks and weeks and weeks after they came out.
00:15:28
Speaker 2: Spielberg is being trailed in the box office by a twenty six year old YouTuber, and two spots behind that is a twenty year old you can sye. That's pretty fun.
00:15:38
Speaker 3: That's pretty fun, all right.
00:15:39
Speaker 1: Our quote of the day on this Monday, it was a little indulgent, because well, we're traveling, we're jumping on planes and trains and experiencing the world right now while working, and it's fun. But I loved this quote. Travel breaks the illusion that your life is the only one.
00:15:55
Speaker 2: Possible In life is the one you're living, Yes, currently is the only There are other options for your life. Yea, you get to see them. Okay, I had to put it together for a second.
00:16:06
Speaker 1: Yes, and I just thought it's cool because it creates this a. It creates possibilities that you hadn't even considered in your own life. But it also allows you to view We talked about this as we go around, and we we're big people watchers. I think people who listen to the podcast know and you do see things, and you experience things, and you can view things differently when you see them through other people, and you can only really get that when you travel to their country.
00:16:30
Speaker 2: I've been talking about that a lot here. We've never been to Amsterdam and heard a lot about it, heard specific things about it, but now we have an understanding of it that kind of flies in the face of what our impression was. So yes, better understanding, but.
00:16:45
Speaker 3: It also just opens up like where could I live? What could I do?
00:16:48
Speaker 2: Well?
00:16:48
Speaker 3: You know, it's just very cool. So travel breaks.
00:16:51
Speaker 1: The illusion that your life is the only one possible. And with that, everyone, we appreciate you listening to us as always on Ami Robots and I'm TJ.

Speaker 2: Holmes will be running with you soon.
