Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast.
00:00:05
Speaker 2: Good morning everyone, and welcome to Morning Run. It is Monday, March thirtieth. I'm Amy Roebuck and TJ's already popping his peas.
00:00:14
Speaker 1: Yes, just doing my warm up exercises so I can talk here. I get enunciate and be excited about what we saw yesterday. My goodness, the Final four set. But Robes, there was a moment. Does this help you better understand my obsession with March Madness.
00:00:31
Speaker 3: Yes, it was an amazing moment.
00:00:33
Speaker 2: I still don't think it's worth getting no sleep for two weeks, but it was incredibly cool to witness potentially the greatest moment ever in Final.
00:00:44
Speaker 3: Four history, in the Final four history, in March Madness.
00:00:47
Speaker 1: It's all right, you corrected yourself. That's all right. You get it, you get it, but you still don't get it. You still after watching Duke Yukon yesterday and wrote and folks, if you didn't see it, it is going to be talked about as a top five moment. You might put it up in the top three or top two moments in the history of the NCAA tournament. Yukon comes back beats Duke with a three pointer from the logo as time is running out. You watched every second at the end, at least of that last few minutes of that game, and you still don't want to lose sleep next year.
00:01:19
Speaker 3: Absolutely not.
00:01:20
Speaker 2: But it was awesome because I loved when it was on Sunday afternoon.
00:01:23
Speaker 3: I was bright eyed.
00:01:24
Speaker 2: I was watching it, watched the whole game, watched an amazing comeback from nineteen points behind. It was a great game. Still, if that happened at midnight, I would not have seen it and wouldn't be upset about it.
00:01:36
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you for a lot of you all have seen it. But it was a great, great moment. The final four is said. But yes, Yukon is the talk of the town after a freshman hit a three pointer from the logo with point four seconds left to play in the game to put them into the final four. So that is absolutely It has us lit this morning. But we have a lot of stuff to get to on this Monday morning run getting your week started. We'll be making stops and Jupiter Island, Florida, Juniper, I should say. Also, we'll be making stop to the nation's airports once again. We'll make a stop on Air Force one, a stop in Italy. Also will be making a stop in Washington, d C. Yes, for a sports story, not a political story. We'll explain a little bit more of what we saw last night in the final four. But we do have to start in getting up to the final four. But roads we have to start with Iran and okay, let's try to make sense out of this now.
00:02:27
Speaker 2: Yes, good luck everybody, because yes, it is hard to get clarity on what exactly is happening with negotiations, if they're even underway to end the war with Iran. The sides are sending let's just say, mixed and completely opposite signals from one another.
00:02:45
Speaker 1: Let's start with the president press gaggle. You've seen these sometimes he does on Air Force one informal little Q and A with the reporters. Well, he come out and he said that the war could be over soon, is what he told reporters. He also said that direct and indirect negotiations have been taking place and are going well. That all sounds promising, but he did manage expectations with this. I think we'll make a deal with them pretty sure, but it's possible we won't.
00:03:12
Speaker 2: Okay, so here's what the Iranians are saying. We're prepared to set US troops on fire if they invade. That doesn't sound like anyone in the middle of negotiations. The head of the Iranian parliament made those comments in response to reports that yes, more US troops were moved to the region over the weekend. Thirty five hundred more marines are now in place. Meanwhile, Pakistan announced it was set to host talks between the US and Iran. However, there is no word on when that might happen or if all sides are on board aka Iran.
00:03:46
Speaker 1: Again Pakistan even the announcement in the way they worded it, we are prepared and we would be honored. He didn't say they have agreed, they are coming. It was weird language. But everybody is saying Pakistan is hosting talks. They just raised their hand and said we'd be happy to.
00:04:00
Speaker 3: Can someone please clear this up?
00:04:03
Speaker 2: This is unnecessarily confusing, and I would imagine deliberately confusing.
00:04:08
Speaker 1: All right, well, if you want clarity, let's turn to this next story. Robes Tsa workers still not clear exactly what's going to happen here.
00:04:16
Speaker 2: Oh, you were being ironic or you were being sarcastic.
00:04:20
Speaker 1: Yes, because today is payday, supposed to be payday for TSA workers. It would be their first pay day in a month and a half. They've been working, of course, at the nation's airport without pay since the shutdown began February fourteenth.
00:04:34
Speaker 3: Six weeks without a paycheck. My goodness.
00:04:36
Speaker 2: President Trump signed that emergency order on Friday. It directs the DHS Secretary to immediately begin paying those workers. DHS says money will start showing up in TSA workers' bank accounts as early as today or tomorrow.
00:04:50
Speaker 1: But that's a good sign out. As of this recording, we haven't started seeing reports wide reports of people seeing their checks show up or anything. I'm sure those will pop out when.
00:04:58
Speaker 2: You imagine just checking your bank accoun out because it's been six weeks and you're just trying to see if you.
00:05:02
Speaker 1: Have to make a good point. They're doing that all day, so scary, refresh, refresh, refresh. Well. The President was also asked this question, we don't really know ropes. Is this going to so they're good to go, or is this just going to give them their back pay and they're going to stop getting paid in it don't know. The President was asked about this how long they will be paid? He just kind of was a vague, as long as they need to kind of a thing. It didn't wasn't a great commitment necessarily. So it does seem that even were that the President signed that emergency order to have them pay, that they started to show up a little more. We started to see in some places, at least over the weekend robes, the airport chaos wasn't as bad. Atlanta has been focused on so much, and we saw a lot of live reporting out of there that the lines weren't as bad this weekend.
00:05:45
Speaker 2: Yes, and so that is certainly a good sign. But call out rates were still high around ten percent. I think they naturally the highest they were.
00:05:53
Speaker 3: Raised, like eleven percent on average.
00:05:55
Speaker 2: But you still have those specific airports that have TSA agents calling out in larger numbers as high as forty percent. Obviously, we've seen those lines in Houston, Atlanta, some of the New York airports as well. But even as things might start improving at the airports, that does not mean that ICE agents will be leaving the airports immediately.
00:06:15
Speaker 1: Orders are Tom Holman said ICE agents would continue to assist at the nation's airports. We're all wondering, well, how long will they be there? His words, until the airports feel like they are one hundred percent in the world. We have to say a lot of fear and maybe even expectations that this was going to cause chaos having the ICE agents there. It's been the opposite.
00:06:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, so hey, I mean, look, if more help and it's needed and it's making things hopefully run a little smoother, that's great. Maybe there's a little different maybe tone or reaction to seeing an ICE agent now at the airports versus what it had been, maybe just even a month or two.
00:06:51
Speaker 1: Rohaps that's right, though, It's okay. They need some good pr as ICE agents, not not even saying as an agency, but those individuals. But to see them in the airport, calmly walking through, keeping order, no masks on, non threat and sometimes helping people with luggage, helping someone get through a line. This is important to them.
00:07:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could change the hearts and minds.
00:07:12
Speaker 2: So folks as just generally how they feel about ICE.
00:07:14
Speaker 3: All right.
00:07:15
Speaker 2: Next up on the run, oil prices jumped over the weekend. Wow, they now sit at one hundred and sixteen dollars a barrel. That is the highest it's been since the war with Iran started.
00:07:29
Speaker 1: Yes, so gas prices are going up as we see oil prices continue to go up right now at right a tick under four dollars a gallon nationally and continuing on the run.
00:07:39
Speaker 2: Here.
00:07:39
Speaker 1: Now we're talking about all this going on into the airports rose with the long lines, and we've seen the couple incidents, even deadly incidents at airports over the recent weeks and months, And now FBI is telling us they're investigating a bomb threat on a flight. This one landed at Atlanta's Heartfield Jackson Airport.
00:07:58
Speaker 2: Yes, the flight landed around five Sunday yesterday when a passenger made a verbal bomb threat. So the flight was kept away from the gate while police responded and deemed that the threat was not credible. I was reading what the pilot was telling law enforcement as they were coming on that. Well, now he's threatening to kill the woman next to him, as he's threatening to blow up the plane. Looks like it was just an unruly passenger who was upset and decided it would be a good idea to start threatening everyone around him.
00:08:29
Speaker 1: I think there is some video floating around about this, about this incident on the plane. But it's just it adds to robes. They say, this is not credible, so who knows what was going on? But Rose, Oh, we've got to worry about this is something we do on a flight now. And I'll admit when I used to land, like as soon as we land, I would take my seat bet off because I would just start fumbling around putting stuff together. I'm like, we're on the ground now, everything's fine. I do not take that seat bet off now until that plane it stopped at the gate. Those are the kinds of changes I know a lot of people are thinking about worried about planes on the ground. Oh God, can we make it to the gate?
00:09:06
Speaker 2: Actually, I know now we did think about that, and I was just also thinking about my god, who you're sitting next to. That's just scary to think some person starts, for whatever reason, starts threatening to kill me, starting to blow up the plane.
00:09:19
Speaker 1: What the man flying? Is terrifying for a whole host of reasons. These days. Continuing here on, there's run driving is a little scary for Tiger Woods continues to be Tiger Yes, was in jail for a little while over the weekend after a car accident, another car incident with him, and yes, after being charged with another DUI. This happened in Juniper Island. This is where he lives down there.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: Yes, so Tiger was driving a range Rover through a neighborhood and was speeding up to try and pass the truck that was hauling a trailer. Well, he clipped the truck and ended up rolling his vehicle onto its side. This is, unfortunately a familiar scenario for Tiger White.
00:09:59
Speaker 1: Any scared in a dangerous way. Now, he was given a breathalyzer out there, blue zero point zero, so he wasn't drunk, but he did refuse to take a urine test and that's why he failed with say, a lawful test, and that's why he was arrested. But they said he did exhibit signs of being under the influence of something and he did have an incident with this twenty seventeen. I think it was DUI found him in the middle of the street, sitting behind the wheel of a car, passed out the middle of the road. I mean, that's scary. He should not be on drugs and driving. Clearly, there is a problem here, right.
00:10:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, and why he can't afford a driver. I saw a headline.
00:10:35
Speaker 1: He didn't just say that, why he can't afford a driver?
00:10:38
Speaker 3: That's me being sarcastic.
00:10:40
Speaker 2: Obviously he can afford a driver, So why is he not, yes, using his money wisely, he's frugal. It's going to cost a lot to have two duys on your record. I mean, are like, at what point do you not get your driver's license? At what point is that taken away? I mean it would seem like two duys and four accidents in last how many years?
00:11:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, he hasn't hurt, no one else's in yet. We should mention nobody heard himself in this vehicle, and the wing helped ropes. Another vehicle at least was involved in the trip that he hit. All right, folks, we'll stay with us here on this Monday morning run. When we come back more about the great moment that has changed robox view of March madness. We'll talk about that. Also, there's a movie that's been talked about enough and it's been doing well enough now at the box office. We might have to break our rule and go through the theater to see something other than a horror movie. Also, what happened to all that chocolate?
00:11:43
Speaker 2: Welcome back everyone to our Monday morning run. And while we're still flying high from watching the final four being said, namely Yukon versus Duke, it was it was a hell of a game, bit.
00:11:57
Speaker 1: And your new hero Braylon Mullins, Brayln Mullen, remember that name, freshman kid out of Yukon who is from Indiana originally, but he hit this three pointer. What a chaotic last sequence. Your heart breaks for Duke. I know there's a lot of Duke haters out there, and that's fine, but I wanted to cry for those kids who had that game one, even had it won in the last couple of seconds, and a mistake, just a little mistake, babe, cost them. This was one of the most painful and most beautiful moments I've ever seen this term.
00:12:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, you said, if a boozer, right, if he had just hold the ball, held the ball, he didn't have to do anything and Duke would have won.
00:12:34
Speaker 3: But instead, you.
00:12:36
Speaker 1: Know, and to let you all know who we're talking about, who made the mistake was Caden Boozer. You might not know that kid, but if you've watched TV anytime the past month. You've seen him and his brother in those commercials Boozer Boys, the Boozer Boys and the State Farm commercial with Jake. They have an accident that you called that you called dad and the other self primacy. Yeah, they have been every where. They are studs, they are talented. They are going to be in the NBA. But the brother just all he had to do is hold onto the ball and rodes he is going to that's.
00:13:09
Speaker 3: You said, He's not going to forget that one for the rest of his life.
00:13:12
Speaker 1: Sick six six, so that let's hate it to see it. But yes, Yukon will take on Illinois and then number one Michigan will take on number one Arizona in the final four. Also the women's final four. Two more games tonight though with UCLA and Yukon have punched their tickets, So Yukon has men and women in the final four, and now Michigan has a chance as well to get their lead in the final four. So that's very cool.
00:13:32
Speaker 2: Some strong programs there, all, right, Next up on the Run, we yes, babe, I'm gonna I'm gonna.
00:13:38
Speaker 3: Give the green light on this show.
00:13:39
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, We're gonna have to because I think if you're going to see this one, seeing this in the theater, that might be part of the draw of Obviously it's a great movie, it's been well reviewed, but Project Hail Mary something to see on the big screen. Ryan Gosling's led sci fi flick was once again and easily number one at the box office.
00:13:56
Speaker 1: So here's the thing. He pulled in fifty four million dollars domestically. That would be a right opening weekend, opening weekend for most Yeah, they would take that. This is their second weekend, though. It's such a big deal. Roads we see about these drop offs with movies. How much did the did they drop off from first weekend to second weekend? A normal one is like fifty percent. Yeah, if you're doing really good, it's forty percent Roses. This thing only dropped thirty two percent. That means there's good word of mouth and there's gonna be good momentum, and this thing has legs for maybe the next month and could do gang busters. It's already made three hundred million dollars worldwide in just two weeks, So congrats to him. And he's been talked about as carrying this movie in a lot of way like, you can't just put anybody in this role. You needed somebody special like him.
00:14:40
Speaker 3: And then they will kill you. That it was an ouch.
00:14:42
Speaker 1: You know what?
00:14:43
Speaker 2: This is so interesting? I saw an article where they were saying, is horror?
00:14:47
Speaker 3: Horror? Is the horror genre oversaturated? They said, what was it?
00:14:51
Speaker 2: And but we actually had a very different way of looking at it. Well, for people who don't know they will kill you, it's almost the exact same thought as Ready or Not Too. Ready or Not Too came out the weekend before, and now to have another movie that looks awesome but almost have the exact same storyline as Ready or Not Too.
00:15:13
Speaker 3: I don't think it's that the horror genre has been oversaturated.
00:15:16
Speaker 2: It's that two movies that are almost identical came out two weekends in a row.
00:15:20
Speaker 1: What do you said? They are two beautiful, leading ladies who you wouldn't consider bad asses and with weapons and fighting, who are trapped somewhere and have to gore and bloody their way out for.
00:15:35
Speaker 3: Some vitualistic killing. Yeah, it's the scene.
00:15:39
Speaker 1: You love Zaozie Bates that leads they will kill you love her lover, lover. But this thing made five million dollars it's a it's a pretty big flop right now, and it's first weekend, so we might have to see that just to support her. You hate to see that because it looks like a fun movie. But even we horror movie fans are like, we just.
00:15:57
Speaker 3: We just saw that movie. It's called Ready or Not Too.
00:15:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunately, and we did see it this weekend and it was great all right. For the final leg of the run, Nestle says more than four hundred thousand kit Cat bars have been stolen. And when you see that headline, you're thinking, how in the hell is that possible. We're talking about twelve tons of candy. To give you a perspective, Well, guess what. It was just driven away right off their production site in Italy. The vehicle was carrying the chocolate bars and they thought it was, yes, an official vehicle. It was supposed to head to Poland, where the bars were then going to be distributed throughout Europe. Instead, the vehicle and its load are nowhere to be found.
00:16:37
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, the truck took off. Yep, they don't know where it is.
00:16:41
Speaker 3: Correct.
00:16:42
Speaker 1: Oh I didn't. I didn't get that bar in the story.
00:16:44
Speaker 3: Yes, and so there is a catch.
00:16:45
Speaker 2: Nesley says, though, on those four hundred thousand kit Cat bars, if anyone tries to sell them, the products actually will all be able to be traced back using a batch code that is assigned to individual Kitket bars.
00:17:00
Speaker 1: Okay, like they're really going to be found in the grocery.
00:17:03
Speaker 3: Who's going to be scanning them?
00:17:05
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm so, they say.
00:17:06
Speaker 2: They say, once a retailer or a consumer scans the number, they will get clear instructions on how to alert the company who's scanning the number of their kit cats?
00:17:15
Speaker 1: Who's scanning a kit Cat? And most of this kit Cat is going to be sold aware in the subways here in New York. Nobody's going to put it official.
00:17:21
Speaker 3: Let me scan this and make sure it's not stolen.
00:17:24
Speaker 2: That is funny, But I did like, I did like what Nesli had to say in their official statement. They said, wills, whilst is it whilst or what it's whilst? Whilst I knew I was saying that wrong. Whilst we appreciate the criminals exceptional taste, the fact remains that cargo theft is an escalating issue for businesses of all sizes, with more sophisticated schemes being deployed on a regular basis. We have chosen to go public with our experience and the hope that it raises awareness of an increasingly common criminal trend. So they didn't have to tell everybody. I guess that they just lost four hundred thousand kit cats. But they say, for the good of all of us, they're trying to let us know not to consume the stolen kitcat, so let's all scan our kitcat bars before we eat them.
00:18:07
Speaker 1: Or is the is the statement essentially saying, hey, don't eat that kit cat because it might be stolen.
00:18:12
Speaker 2: Because yes, this is a rising crime that you should not contribute to, even unknowingly.
00:18:17
Speaker 1: I think they could have leaned in a little more to the comedic element of this.
00:18:21
Speaker 3: The first line was fun.
00:18:22
Speaker 1: That was great, and then they could have done a little more.
00:18:24
Speaker 3: Now I'm feeling like the onus is on me.
00:18:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think so. I appreciate the criminals exceptional taste, all right.
00:18:30
Speaker 2: For our quote of the day on this Monday, brought one out from the Dolli Lama, Because who's more wise than the Dali Lama?
00:18:41
Speaker 3: This is this is for anyone in a relationship's.
00:18:43
Speaker 1: Setting us up. She's setting us up.
00:18:46
Speaker 2: Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your.
00:18:52
Speaker 3: Need for each other.
00:18:53
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love that.
00:18:55
Speaker 2: I love that too, meaning oh yeah, yeah, it's not what you can do for me, because actually loving someone is about giving. And so I just think that's cool to reshave his song What do I need? I need you?
00:19:07
Speaker 3: No, I love you.
00:19:08
Speaker 2: And there's a very very very different way of acting and reacting when you think about it in those terms.
00:19:14
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Donley Lama was even a relationship therapist.
00:19:17
Speaker 3: I never heard that one before, and I thought it was cool. So I just.
00:19:20
Speaker 2: It's something to remember when you actually think about how you're loving someone, including yourself. Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.
00:19:33
Speaker 3: And with that, everyone, we hope you have a beautiful day.
00:19:36
Speaker 1: I made me robots and I'm TJ. Holmes from which else soon
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast.
00:00:05
Speaker 2: Good morning everyone, and welcome to Morning Run. It is Monday, March thirtieth. I'm Amy Roebuck and TJ's already popping his peas.
00:00:14
Speaker 1: Yes, just doing my warm up exercises so I can talk here. I get enunciate and be excited about what we saw yesterday. My goodness, the Final four set. But Robes, there was a moment. Does this help you better understand my obsession with March Madness.
00:00:31
Speaker 3: Yes, it was an amazing moment.
00:00:33
Speaker 2: I still don't think it's worth getting no sleep for two weeks, but it was incredibly cool to witness potentially the greatest moment ever in Final.
00:00:44
Speaker 3: Four history, in the Final four history, in March Madness.
00:00:47
Speaker 1: It's all right, you corrected yourself. That's all right. You get it, you get it, but you still don't get it. You still after watching Duke Yukon yesterday and wrote and folks, if you didn't see it, it is going to be talked about as a top five moment. You might put it up in the top three or top two moments in the history of the NCAA tournament. Yukon comes back beats Duke with a three pointer from the logo as time is running out. You watched every second at the end, at least of that last few minutes of that game, and you still don't want to lose sleep next year.
00:01:19
Speaker 3: Absolutely not.
00:01:20
Speaker 2: But it was awesome because I loved when it was on Sunday afternoon.
00:01:23
Speaker 3: I was bright eyed.
00:01:24
Speaker 2: I was watching it, watched the whole game, watched an amazing comeback from nineteen points behind. It was a great game. Still, if that happened at midnight, I would not have seen it and wouldn't be upset about it.
00:01:36
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you for a lot of you all have seen it. But it was a great, great moment. The final four is said. But yes, Yukon is the talk of the town after a freshman hit a three pointer from the logo with point four seconds left to play in the game to put them into the final four. So that is absolutely It has us lit this morning. But we have a lot of stuff to get to on this Monday morning run getting your week started. We'll be making stops and Jupiter Island, Florida, Juniper, I should say. Also, we'll be making stop to the nation's airports once again. We'll make a stop on Air Force one, a stop in Italy. Also will be making a stop in Washington, d C. Yes, for a sports story, not a political story. We'll explain a little bit more of what we saw last night in the final four. But we do have to start in getting up to the final four. But roads we have to start with Iran and okay, let's try to make sense out of this now.
00:02:27
Speaker 2: Yes, good luck everybody, because yes, it is hard to get clarity on what exactly is happening with negotiations, if they're even underway to end the war with Iran. The sides are sending let's just say, mixed and completely opposite signals from one another.
00:02:45
Speaker 1: Let's start with the president press gaggle. You've seen these sometimes he does on Air Force one informal little Q and A with the reporters. Well, he come out and he said that the war could be over soon, is what he told reporters. He also said that direct and indirect negotiations have been taking place and are going well. That all sounds promising, but he did manage expectations with this. I think we'll make a deal with them pretty sure, but it's possible we won't.
00:03:12
Speaker 2: Okay, so here's what the Iranians are saying. We're prepared to set US troops on fire if they invade. That doesn't sound like anyone in the middle of negotiations. The head of the Iranian parliament made those comments in response to reports that yes, more US troops were moved to the region over the weekend. Thirty five hundred more marines are now in place. Meanwhile, Pakistan announced it was set to host talks between the US and Iran. However, there is no word on when that might happen or if all sides are on board aka Iran.
00:03:46
Speaker 1: Again Pakistan even the announcement in the way they worded it, we are prepared and we would be honored. He didn't say they have agreed, they are coming. It was weird language. But everybody is saying Pakistan is hosting talks. They just raised their hand and said we'd be happy to.
00:04:00
Speaker 3: Can someone please clear this up?
00:04:03
Speaker 2: This is unnecessarily confusing, and I would imagine deliberately confusing.
00:04:08
Speaker 1: All right, well, if you want clarity, let's turn to this next story. Robes Tsa workers still not clear exactly what's going to happen here.
00:04:16
Speaker 2: Oh, you were being ironic or you were being sarcastic.
00:04:20
Speaker 1: Yes, because today is payday, supposed to be payday for TSA workers. It would be their first pay day in a month and a half. They've been working, of course, at the nation's airport without pay since the shutdown began February fourteenth.
00:04:34
Speaker 3: Six weeks without a paycheck. My goodness.
00:04:36
Speaker 2: President Trump signed that emergency order on Friday. It directs the DHS Secretary to immediately begin paying those workers. DHS says money will start showing up in TSA workers' bank accounts as early as today or tomorrow.
00:04:50
Speaker 1: But that's a good sign out. As of this recording, we haven't started seeing reports wide reports of people seeing their checks show up or anything. I'm sure those will pop out when.
00:04:58
Speaker 2: You imagine just checking your bank accoun out because it's been six weeks and you're just trying to see if you.
00:05:02
Speaker 1: Have to make a good point. They're doing that all day, so scary, refresh, refresh, refresh. Well. The President was also asked this question, we don't really know ropes. Is this going to so they're good to go, or is this just going to give them their back pay and they're going to stop getting paid in it don't know. The President was asked about this how long they will be paid? He just kind of was a vague, as long as they need to kind of a thing. It didn't wasn't a great commitment necessarily. So it does seem that even were that the President signed that emergency order to have them pay, that they started to show up a little more. We started to see in some places, at least over the weekend robes, the airport chaos wasn't as bad. Atlanta has been focused on so much, and we saw a lot of live reporting out of there that the lines weren't as bad this weekend.
00:05:45
Speaker 2: Yes, and so that is certainly a good sign. But call out rates were still high around ten percent. I think they naturally the highest they were.
00:05:53
Speaker 3: Raised, like eleven percent on average.
00:05:55
Speaker 2: But you still have those specific airports that have TSA agents calling out in larger numbers as high as forty percent. Obviously, we've seen those lines in Houston, Atlanta, some of the New York airports as well. But even as things might start improving at the airports, that does not mean that ICE agents will be leaving the airports immediately.
00:06:15
Speaker 1: Orders are Tom Holman said ICE agents would continue to assist at the nation's airports. We're all wondering, well, how long will they be there? His words, until the airports feel like they are one hundred percent in the world. We have to say a lot of fear and maybe even expectations that this was going to cause chaos having the ICE agents there. It's been the opposite.
00:06:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, so hey, I mean, look, if more help and it's needed and it's making things hopefully run a little smoother, that's great. Maybe there's a little different maybe tone or reaction to seeing an ICE agent now at the airports versus what it had been, maybe just even a month or two.
00:06:51
Speaker 1: Rohaps that's right, though, It's okay. They need some good pr as ICE agents, not not even saying as an agency, but those individuals. But to see them in the airport, calmly walking through, keeping order, no masks on, non threat and sometimes helping people with luggage, helping someone get through a line. This is important to them.
00:07:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could change the hearts and minds.
00:07:12
Speaker 2: So folks as just generally how they feel about ICE.
00:07:14
Speaker 3: All right.
00:07:15
Speaker 2: Next up on the run, oil prices jumped over the weekend. Wow, they now sit at one hundred and sixteen dollars a barrel. That is the highest it's been since the war with Iran started.
00:07:29
Speaker 1: Yes, so gas prices are going up as we see oil prices continue to go up right now at right a tick under four dollars a gallon nationally and continuing on the run.
00:07:39
Speaker 2: Here.
00:07:39
Speaker 1: Now we're talking about all this going on into the airports rose with the long lines, and we've seen the couple incidents, even deadly incidents at airports over the recent weeks and months, And now FBI is telling us they're investigating a bomb threat on a flight. This one landed at Atlanta's Heartfield Jackson Airport.
00:07:58
Speaker 2: Yes, the flight landed around five Sunday yesterday when a passenger made a verbal bomb threat. So the flight was kept away from the gate while police responded and deemed that the threat was not credible. I was reading what the pilot was telling law enforcement as they were coming on that. Well, now he's threatening to kill the woman next to him, as he's threatening to blow up the plane. Looks like it was just an unruly passenger who was upset and decided it would be a good idea to start threatening everyone around him.
00:08:29
Speaker 1: I think there is some video floating around about this, about this incident on the plane. But it's just it adds to robes. They say, this is not credible, so who knows what was going on? But Rose, Oh, we've got to worry about this is something we do on a flight now. And I'll admit when I used to land, like as soon as we land, I would take my seat bet off because I would just start fumbling around putting stuff together. I'm like, we're on the ground now, everything's fine. I do not take that seat bet off now until that plane it stopped at the gate. Those are the kinds of changes I know a lot of people are thinking about worried about planes on the ground. Oh God, can we make it to the gate?
00:09:06
Speaker 2: Actually, I know now we did think about that, and I was just also thinking about my god, who you're sitting next to. That's just scary to think some person starts, for whatever reason, starts threatening to kill me, starting to blow up the plane.
00:09:19
Speaker 1: What the man flying? Is terrifying for a whole host of reasons. These days. Continuing here on, there's run driving is a little scary for Tiger Woods continues to be Tiger Yes, was in jail for a little while over the weekend after a car accident, another car incident with him, and yes, after being charged with another DUI. This happened in Juniper Island. This is where he lives down there.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: Yes, so Tiger was driving a range Rover through a neighborhood and was speeding up to try and pass the truck that was hauling a trailer. Well, he clipped the truck and ended up rolling his vehicle onto its side. This is, unfortunately a familiar scenario for Tiger White.
00:09:59
Speaker 1: Any scared in a dangerous way. Now, he was given a breathalyzer out there, blue zero point zero, so he wasn't drunk, but he did refuse to take a urine test and that's why he failed with say, a lawful test, and that's why he was arrested. But they said he did exhibit signs of being under the influence of something and he did have an incident with this twenty seventeen. I think it was DUI found him in the middle of the street, sitting behind the wheel of a car, passed out the middle of the road. I mean, that's scary. He should not be on drugs and driving. Clearly, there is a problem here, right.
00:10:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, and why he can't afford a driver. I saw a headline.
00:10:35
Speaker 1: He didn't just say that, why he can't afford a driver?
00:10:38
Speaker 3: That's me being sarcastic.
00:10:40
Speaker 2: Obviously he can afford a driver, So why is he not, yes, using his money wisely, he's frugal. It's going to cost a lot to have two duys on your record. I mean, are like, at what point do you not get your driver's license? At what point is that taken away? I mean it would seem like two duys and four accidents in last how many years?
00:11:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, he hasn't hurt, no one else's in yet. We should mention nobody heard himself in this vehicle, and the wing helped ropes. Another vehicle at least was involved in the trip that he hit. All right, folks, we'll stay with us here on this Monday morning run. When we come back more about the great moment that has changed robox view of March madness. We'll talk about that. Also, there's a movie that's been talked about enough and it's been doing well enough now at the box office. We might have to break our rule and go through the theater to see something other than a horror movie. Also, what happened to all that chocolate?
00:11:43
Speaker 2: Welcome back everyone to our Monday morning run. And while we're still flying high from watching the final four being said, namely Yukon versus Duke, it was it was a hell of a game, bit.
00:11:57
Speaker 1: And your new hero Braylon Mullins, Brayln Mullen, remember that name, freshman kid out of Yukon who is from Indiana originally, but he hit this three pointer. What a chaotic last sequence. Your heart breaks for Duke. I know there's a lot of Duke haters out there, and that's fine, but I wanted to cry for those kids who had that game one, even had it won in the last couple of seconds, and a mistake, just a little mistake, babe, cost them. This was one of the most painful and most beautiful moments I've ever seen this term.
00:12:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, you said, if a boozer, right, if he had just hold the ball, held the ball, he didn't have to do anything and Duke would have won.
00:12:34
Speaker 3: But instead, you.
00:12:36
Speaker 1: Know, and to let you all know who we're talking about, who made the mistake was Caden Boozer. You might not know that kid, but if you've watched TV anytime the past month. You've seen him and his brother in those commercials Boozer Boys, the Boozer Boys and the State Farm commercial with Jake. They have an accident that you called that you called dad and the other self primacy. Yeah, they have been every where. They are studs, they are talented. They are going to be in the NBA. But the brother just all he had to do is hold onto the ball and rodes he is going to that's.
00:13:09
Speaker 3: You said, He's not going to forget that one for the rest of his life.
00:13:12
Speaker 1: Sick six six, so that let's hate it to see it. But yes, Yukon will take on Illinois and then number one Michigan will take on number one Arizona in the final four. Also the women's final four. Two more games tonight though with UCLA and Yukon have punched their tickets, So Yukon has men and women in the final four, and now Michigan has a chance as well to get their lead in the final four. So that's very cool.
00:13:32
Speaker 2: Some strong programs there, all, right, Next up on the Run, we yes, babe, I'm gonna I'm gonna.
00:13:38
Speaker 3: Give the green light on this show.
00:13:39
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, We're gonna have to because I think if you're going to see this one, seeing this in the theater, that might be part of the draw of Obviously it's a great movie, it's been well reviewed, but Project Hail Mary something to see on the big screen. Ryan Gosling's led sci fi flick was once again and easily number one at the box office.
00:13:56
Speaker 1: So here's the thing. He pulled in fifty four million dollars domestically. That would be a right opening weekend, opening weekend for most Yeah, they would take that. This is their second weekend, though. It's such a big deal. Roads we see about these drop offs with movies. How much did the did they drop off from first weekend to second weekend? A normal one is like fifty percent. Yeah, if you're doing really good, it's forty percent Roses. This thing only dropped thirty two percent. That means there's good word of mouth and there's gonna be good momentum, and this thing has legs for maybe the next month and could do gang busters. It's already made three hundred million dollars worldwide in just two weeks, So congrats to him. And he's been talked about as carrying this movie in a lot of way like, you can't just put anybody in this role. You needed somebody special like him.
00:14:40
Speaker 3: And then they will kill you. That it was an ouch.
00:14:42
Speaker 1: You know what?
00:14:43
Speaker 2: This is so interesting? I saw an article where they were saying, is horror?
00:14:47
Speaker 3: Horror? Is the horror genre oversaturated? They said, what was it?
00:14:51
Speaker 2: And but we actually had a very different way of looking at it. Well, for people who don't know they will kill you, it's almost the exact same thought as Ready or Not Too. Ready or Not Too came out the weekend before, and now to have another movie that looks awesome but almost have the exact same storyline as Ready or Not Too.
00:15:13
Speaker 3: I don't think it's that the horror genre has been oversaturated.
00:15:16
Speaker 2: It's that two movies that are almost identical came out two weekends in a row.
00:15:20
Speaker 1: What do you said? They are two beautiful, leading ladies who you wouldn't consider bad asses and with weapons and fighting, who are trapped somewhere and have to gore and bloody their way out for.
00:15:35
Speaker 3: Some vitualistic killing. Yeah, it's the scene.
00:15:39
Speaker 1: You love Zaozie Bates that leads they will kill you love her lover, lover. But this thing made five million dollars it's a it's a pretty big flop right now, and it's first weekend, so we might have to see that just to support her. You hate to see that because it looks like a fun movie. But even we horror movie fans are like, we just.
00:15:57
Speaker 3: We just saw that movie. It's called Ready or Not Too.
00:15:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunately, and we did see it this weekend and it was great all right. For the final leg of the run, Nestle says more than four hundred thousand kit Cat bars have been stolen. And when you see that headline, you're thinking, how in the hell is that possible. We're talking about twelve tons of candy. To give you a perspective, Well, guess what. It was just driven away right off their production site in Italy. The vehicle was carrying the chocolate bars and they thought it was, yes, an official vehicle. It was supposed to head to Poland, where the bars were then going to be distributed throughout Europe. Instead, the vehicle and its load are nowhere to be found.
00:16:37
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, the truck took off. Yep, they don't know where it is.
00:16:41
Speaker 3: Correct.
00:16:42
Speaker 1: Oh I didn't. I didn't get that bar in the story.
00:16:44
Speaker 3: Yes, and so there is a catch.
00:16:45
Speaker 2: Nesley says, though, on those four hundred thousand kit Cat bars, if anyone tries to sell them, the products actually will all be able to be traced back using a batch code that is assigned to individual Kitket bars.
00:17:00
Speaker 1: Okay, like they're really going to be found in the grocery.
00:17:03
Speaker 3: Who's going to be scanning them?
00:17:05
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm so, they say.
00:17:06
Speaker 2: They say, once a retailer or a consumer scans the number, they will get clear instructions on how to alert the company who's scanning the number of their kit cats?
00:17:15
Speaker 1: Who's scanning a kit Cat? And most of this kit Cat is going to be sold aware in the subways here in New York. Nobody's going to put it official.
00:17:21
Speaker 3: Let me scan this and make sure it's not stolen.
00:17:24
Speaker 2: That is funny, But I did like, I did like what Nesli had to say in their official statement. They said, wills, whilst is it whilst or what it's whilst? Whilst I knew I was saying that wrong. Whilst we appreciate the criminals exceptional taste, the fact remains that cargo theft is an escalating issue for businesses of all sizes, with more sophisticated schemes being deployed on a regular basis. We have chosen to go public with our experience and the hope that it raises awareness of an increasingly common criminal trend. So they didn't have to tell everybody. I guess that they just lost four hundred thousand kit cats. But they say, for the good of all of us, they're trying to let us know not to consume the stolen kitcat, so let's all scan our kitcat bars before we eat them.
00:18:07
Speaker 1: Or is the is the statement essentially saying, hey, don't eat that kit cat because it might be stolen.
00:18:12
Speaker 2: Because yes, this is a rising crime that you should not contribute to, even unknowingly.
00:18:17
Speaker 1: I think they could have leaned in a little more to the comedic element of this.
00:18:21
Speaker 3: The first line was fun.
00:18:22
Speaker 1: That was great, and then they could have done a little more.
00:18:24
Speaker 3: Now I'm feeling like the onus is on me.
00:18:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think so. I appreciate the criminals exceptional taste, all right.
00:18:30
Speaker 2: For our quote of the day on this Monday, brought one out from the Dolli Lama, Because who's more wise than the Dali Lama?
00:18:41
Speaker 3: This is this is for anyone in a relationship's.
00:18:43
Speaker 1: Setting us up. She's setting us up.
00:18:46
Speaker 2: Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your.
00:18:52
Speaker 3: Need for each other.
00:18:53
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love that.
00:18:55
Speaker 2: I love that too, meaning oh yeah, yeah, it's not what you can do for me, because actually loving someone is about giving. And so I just think that's cool to reshave his song What do I need? I need you?
00:19:07
Speaker 3: No, I love you.
00:19:08
Speaker 2: And there's a very very very different way of acting and reacting when you think about it in those terms.
00:19:14
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Donley Lama was even a relationship therapist.
00:19:17
Speaker 3: I never heard that one before, and I thought it was cool. So I just.
00:19:20
Speaker 2: It's something to remember when you actually think about how you're loving someone, including yourself. Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.
00:19:33
Speaker 3: And with that, everyone, we hope you have a beautiful day.
00:19:36
Speaker 1: I made me robots and I'm TJ. Holmes from which else soon
