Speaker 3: I'm Ami Robot and I'm TJ.
00:00:12
Speaker 4: Hold is getting serious again. Seven hundred and seventy five million dollars up for grabs Powerball tonight. Seven hundred and seventy five million. Need to buy tickets?
00:00:20
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, one hundred percent we do. Because you got to be in it to win it.
00:00:24
Speaker 4: Yes, you have to. Here's the thing, this is not even crack. Is barely crack in the top twenty biggest jackpot of all time.
00:00:30
Speaker 2: That's where we are.
00:00:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I don't know if we should get involved.
00:00:33
Speaker 2: Need to wait till it gets to a billion plus.
00:00:35
Speaker 4: That's where we are threshold. But that's going on. Everybody keeping an eye on that tonight. Yes, good morning to you all wherever you may be. Hope you're having a good one. Story that jumped out. There's a big man hunt going on in Georgia right now. Yes, they say he's an armed and dangerous guy. For Robes, he had an uber escape. This guy escaped in part via uber. They're trying to figure out how this was possible.
00:01:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, how do he have an Uber account? How do you have a cell phone? I'm very confused.
00:01:06
Speaker 4: We all are confused. Also, egg prices have been going what up or down? They remember they were skyrocketing for a while, but the prices have steady that have come down. But yesterday the most expensive egg ever sold was sold in London.
00:01:21
Speaker 2: Yeah it's not one you eat.
00:01:22
Speaker 4: Okay, you should point that out. How did you give it away? I'm sure that's what they were thinking. But as always, folks, top right corner of your Apple podcast app on our show page has a button there that says follow click that you can get our updates coming to you. And there have been a lot, including on the Brian Walls trial. And what I'm saying is there's a lot of stuff that we have been rapidly responding to, So follow and we can get those always to you in your inbox. Always joining us or also i should say joining us On the run this morning, Sabrina Carpenter will be with us. Miley Cyrus, the San Francisco City Attorney, Netflix on the run with us, as well as Matt Bennepps.
00:01:58
Speaker 2: Also on the run.
00:02:00
Speaker 1: The DC shooter makes a court appearance from a hospital bed and Brian Walsh's jaw dropping internet searches. TJ just mentioned we have been following this court trial very closely, been watching it.
00:02:14
Speaker 2: There are cameras in the courtroom.
00:02:15
Speaker 1: So we have an update for you today, but keep checking out throughout the day like we have. It's remarkable what has already been shown in court as evidence, and it just keeps getting more and more fascinating.
00:02:28
Speaker 4: We could have done a full episode yesterday just reading his internet searches. Yes, is what the trial was, all right, with an update on that coming up, But let's get going here. There was an election last night, but somebody has to win, somebody has to lose, but everybody's saying they want We talked about Republicans and Democrats both claiming victory in that closely watched congressional race in Tennessee, the seventh district. This was seen and why it was a big deal was seen as a referendum on President Trump's second term.
00:02:55
Speaker 1: Yes, technically and officially. Matt Van Epps, the Republican, won by about nine points. But the reason why Democrats are claiming a victory is because they're saying, ha ha, he only won by single digits. Trump took the state by twenty two points, I believe, so they feel like they've made massive inroads.
00:03:14
Speaker 2: In that area.
00:03:15
Speaker 1: Sure, so the Democrat was often ben and she has now made a name for herself because all eyes were on this district as truly a referendum on President Trump.
00:03:24
Speaker 4: Normally this wouldn't be a barn burner. Somebody won by nine points, but hey, they cut it in half.
00:03:31
Speaker 1: And so they are hoping that that means more to come for the midterm elections for Democrats.
00:03:36
Speaker 2: All right.
00:03:36
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, the Trump administration is pausing immigration cases for everybody from nineteen countries. And which countries are they Well, they're described as countries of concern.
00:03:50
Speaker 4: Yes, these countries we have heard about before in this administration with a travel band. So what this new thing does now they're saying it halts allreation cases for people from nineteen countries that are already in process or already in the country, So people might be in the middle of green card cases, their naturalization ceremony might be coming up, essentially stopping everything for new review. Now, there was already this travel ban in place for these nineteen countries, but this new announcement goes further by stopping the adjudication of all cases involving people from these places. And again they did this back in June. They said, there's essentially a travel ban that almost made it impossible for anybody to come for these nineteen countries. So it was a little confusing, like, what's the addition here, Well, it is a big deal.
00:04:37
Speaker 1: It certainly is in some of the countries who have been named Afghanistan, Me and mar Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia. A lot was said about Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, etc. But yeah, the Somalia rhetoric was off the chart.
00:05:01
Speaker 4: Yes, this is not paraphrasing that he called the place garbage and said that he doesn't want some allies that are in this country here. He said, to be honest with you, I don't want them here. He said that and called ilan Omar garbage as well. He said this in the it was a long cabinet meeting yesterday that was aired live on the night.
00:05:19
Speaker 3: He flat out said it.
00:05:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no way to even try to put it into context because it is what it is, and it gets to a point now where I think we still have to acknowledge the shock and the disrespect and the tone. It's wildly offensive and especially disturbing coming from our president. You can have your feelings, it's just to use the word garbage to describe human beings as tough.
00:05:47
Speaker 4: All right, continuing on the run here now, folks, the doctor who pleaded guilty in Matthew Perry's death is set to be sentenced today. This is the guy who sold ketamine to Matthew Perry.
00:05:58
Speaker 1: Now, Perry died back in October of twenty twenty three from an overdose. That doctor his name is doctor Salvador Placensi, and the prosecutors are asking that he spent three years behind bars for Perry's death. The defense is asking for zero prison time.
00:06:15
Speaker 3: Now.
00:06:15
Speaker 1: To be clear, doctor plus sense is not accused of selling Perry that fatal dose, but he is accused of selling him large amounts in the weeks that led up to his death that facilitated Perry's ability to take more than he should have.
00:06:31
Speaker 4: I didn't remember actually a lot of the backstory, but he had been subscribe prescribed, excuse me, ketamine, but he wanted larger doses. His doctor wouldn't prescribe, so he ended up calling to these other places, actor.
00:06:44
Speaker 2: Shopping, and yes, found somebody who would do it all right.
00:06:47
Speaker 4: Continuing on the run here now, the suspect in the DC's shooting those two National Guard members made his first court appearance yesterday. He did it remotely. He's still in the hospital. He did enter a not guilty plea to first degree murder and assault with intent to kill. Andrew Wolfe is still in serious condition right now. Twenty four year old. The President said he's fighting for his life. But we heard positive signs of what is. He gave a thumbs up top, wiggled his toes. I believe, so that's positive. But Sarah Bextrom, the twenty year old, she did die from her wounds, but good to hear he was. I hope we keep getting those updates about Andrew wolf.
00:07:22
Speaker 1: Yes, we are certainly keeping him in our thoughts in prayers. But next up on our run, Netflix now Defending Itself and that new Ditty documentary everyone is talking about Sean Combs The Reckoning. It dropped yesterday despite a cease and desist order from Ditty's team, claiming the documentary uses stolen, unauthorized footage. You see it in the first five minutes of the first episode of this four part series. You are actually listening to and watching Ditty talk to his attorneys six days before he was arrested. So here's Netflix's official statement. The claims being made about Shawn Combs the reckoning are false. The project has no ties to any past conversations between Shawn Combs and Netflix. The footage of Comb's leading up to his indictment and arrest were legally obtained. This is not a hit piece or an active retribution. Curtis Jackson is an executive producer, but does not have creative control.
00:08:22
Speaker 2: No one was paid to participate.
00:08:24
Speaker 1: This was, of course, in reaction to Ditty's team saying that fifty cent Curtis Jackson has a vendetta, is a longtime rival, why would you give him creative control over a documentary about Ditty? And they claimed that footage couldn't have been legally procured.
00:08:41
Speaker 4: I don't know how it's possible. I can't wait to hear that answer. But you and I watched the first episode and did not come away feeling like it was a vendetta or was too one sided or it seemed personal.
00:08:50
Speaker 1: No, it actually I learned a lot. It seemed straightforward and explained. Perhaps the ditty we saw in cord or all of the out llegations around him made a little bit.
00:09:03
Speaker 4: More sense and continue on the run here now on this Wednesday morning. Testimony set to resume this morning in the trial of Brian Walsh, the Massachusetts man who's admitted to dismembering and disposing of his wife's body but says he didn't kill her.
00:09:17
Speaker 1: So much of yesterday's testimony focused on his Internet searches in the immediate aftermath of her death. We're talking within hours, if not minutes of her death. Some of the searches will just read them aloud to you. Ten ways to dispose of a body if you really need to. How long before a body starts to smell? Is it possible to clean DNA off a knife?
00:09:40
Speaker 4: And that one's key because no one knows how she died. Nobody was there, and so this search gives some kind of an indication of maybe a knife was used in her merger. That was That was one of the biggest that jumped out yesterday.
00:09:54
Speaker 1: Yes, there was also and he's admitted to dismembering her body. But among the searches how to saw a body, how to dismember a body, he was trying to find out how to clean up blood stains. So again, if his claim that she died of a natural causes or some sudden death, why is he cleaning up blood? Why is he searching about a knife? So those are all questions that the defense is certainly having a difficult time trying to answer.
00:10:20
Speaker 4: We will see them try again today. The testimony resumes at nine am. Continue on the Run. Now, a man hunt underway in Georgia for a guy who took an uber as part of his escape.
00:10:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes zero sense. We're talking about Timothy Shane, fifty two years old. He is considered armed and dangerous and apparently has a cell phone available to him as well. He was originally taken into custody last month after he led police on a chase. He was transferred to the hospital though after a suicide attempt, and somehow while he was in the hospital around one thirty in the morning on Monday, he was able to walk away on foot. He stole an suv, he crashed it, he fled on foot again and then was able somehow to call an uber which picked him up near a residence.
00:11:08
Speaker 4: I have no idea they at least they haven't said how they think it was possible. Obviously he had to have a cell phone or somebody did it on his behalf. But some kind of way they knew to go to the area and he was gone by the time they got there. Called an uber, an uber escape. This is incredible. That was escape in New Orleans. We saw where the guys all just jumped through a hole in the wall.
00:11:31
Speaker 1: Yeah and just said too easy, yes, and just went right through, ripped toilet off the wall and we walked out.
00:11:39
Speaker 4: Okay, these are I'm laughing a little because we just walked through a hole in the wall and I called an uber.
00:11:47
Speaker 3: Those are not daring capers and escapes.
00:11:50
Speaker 1: No.
00:11:51
Speaker 2: And then there was the case I forgot where were the guy?
00:11:53
Speaker 1: I think this was actually an Arkansas where he just made a makeshift like silly kind of a fish looking outfit and walked right out the front door like he was some guard or something, wrote sheriff.
00:12:05
Speaker 4: On the back, this will fool them and walked right out the place. HI, Well, keep it on. What's happening in Georgia. We continue on the run. Now, let's head to the Bay Area where San Francisco is suing all your favorite food and the people who make it. This is a big, big deal, Sultan, a first of its kind lawsuit.
00:12:24
Speaker 2: That's right.
00:12:24
Speaker 1: So the city assuming ten major food companies We're talking craft Hines, Coca Cola, PepsiCo, General Mills, Neslie, Kellogg, et cetera, all a part of what they are calling a public health crisis. They say it's this is all over or ultra processed food that is designed to be harmful and addictive. I believe there's a seventy percent of food you find in the grocery store is in this ultra processed category, and that is what most Americans are consuming.
00:12:54
Speaker 4: So now, the companies themselves haven't responded at least as this recording to the lawsuit, But an industry group that does speak for these for these big companies, put it this way. There is certainly no agreed upon scientific definition of ultra processed foods, and attempting to classify foods as unhealthy simply because they are processed, or demonizing food by ignoring its full nutrient content misleads consumers and exacerbates health disparities.
00:13:22
Speaker 2: Look, I don't know.
00:13:23
Speaker 1: This is a tough one, because yes, I think. And they said, this was an interesting moment where San Francisco, the attorney general there is aligning himself with the Trump administration in a rare moment because they said, this sounds a lot like what RFK Junior is trying to do with his Make America Healthy Again campaigns. So they are actually aligned on this.
00:13:43
Speaker 3: Wonder they'll have a press conference together.
00:13:46
Speaker 2: Holding hands and singing Kumbaya. Can't wait? All right?
00:13:49
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, Trump is trolling pop stars again. This time it's Sabrina Carpenter and she is not happy.
00:13:57
Speaker 3: Why does he do this?
00:13:58
Speaker 2: This is because he can.
00:14:00
Speaker 4: It's a thing now I expect that. I'm waiting for the next one he did is with Taylor Swift. He did it with Kenny Loggins. What was that Highway to the danger Zone?
00:14:08
Speaker 2: Danger Zone where he was flying a.
00:14:09
Speaker 3: Fighter jet and pooping on protesters?
00:14:11
Speaker 1: Yes?
00:14:11
Speaker 3: Something right?
00:14:12
Speaker 4: Okay, yes, yes that one. So this time Sabrina Carpenter her song Juno the President and his folks. They used it in an online video that was promoting ice raid.
00:14:21
Speaker 2: Much like Olivia Rodrigo just a few weeks ago.
00:14:23
Speaker 4: Ah, I forgot about her. Yes, same thing, and she came out swinging about it as well.
00:14:27
Speaker 2: Yes she did.
00:14:28
Speaker 1: She actually put a comment in this section saying stop using my music, you are not allowed to.
00:14:34
Speaker 4: And what they deleted, and then all of her fans kept reposting in it and he can't do anything about it. But this time Sabrina Carpenter got on social media and said, quote, this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda. Have we seen has he been forced legally to take any other dent?
00:14:52
Speaker 2: He does take it down.
00:14:52
Speaker 1: Once they say something like that publicly or put it in the comments section before it's deleted, they will turn the audio off. But at that they've gotten probably hours and hours of views, and they've made their point.
00:15:04
Speaker 4: And then we're talking. I didn't even know about the video until this. All right, we'll stay with us folks here on this Wednesday morning run. When we come back, Egg prices are going through the roof, at least for one egg. Also, that poor police officer down in New Zealand, you won't believe the job he has Right now, a bit. Congrats to Miley, Cyrus and folks, let's get rich today.
00:15:35
Speaker 1: Continuing out on our Wednesday morning run. Next up on the run, one egg, one egg, One egg sold for thirty million dollars.
00:15:45
Speaker 3: That's a good egg.
00:15:46
Speaker 2: How is that?
00:15:47
Speaker 3: But I'm bump.
00:15:50
Speaker 1: It's not just an egg you eat. It's nothing that you would crack. Hopefully, this is a rare Faberge egg. It was auctioned off in London yesterday. This is the most that a Faberge egg has ever sold for. Again that price tag, specifically, thirty point two million dollars.
00:16:07
Speaker 4: I say, every time one of these goes to auction, it breaks the record for the previous one. So yes, this is a new Faberge egg record. Why is this one a big deal? Well, it's called the Winter Egg. It's made of rock crystal, has forty five hundred tiny diamonds in it. It opens as a tiny basket of quartz flowers on the inside. Now, the auction house here actually called this the Mona Lisa for Decorative Arts. They say this egg is a big deal.
00:16:31
Speaker 1: You weren't buying it just I mean, okay, I'm amazed that people would pay that much for a tiny egg. But I actually didn't know the history. You found out Faberge. Yeah, Peter Carl Faberget. He only created fifty eggs, so I guess, yes, if you you only have a finite amount, they go up in value significantly. But he created them for the Russian Imperial Family between the years of eighteen eighty five and nineteen seventeen.
00:16:59
Speaker 4: How many movies we've seen where a Faberge egg is being stolen or something like that, and we hear, we know they're precious and we know they're a big deal. I didn't realize, but yeah, he was this master jeweler or whatever, and they went to him.
00:17:09
Speaker 3: He made just a handful.
00:17:11
Speaker 1: I had no idea. And this is just so bizarre, babe, because we don't have just one Faberge egg story. We have two Faberge egg stories, and this one takes the cake.
00:17:25
Speaker 2: So also, also on.
00:17:28
Speaker 1: The Faberget front, something I've never uttered in New Zealand, there are officers right now who are assigned to monitor an inmate until he poops a pendant.
00:17:39
Speaker 4: Yes, very special pendent. It's a Faberget pendant. So it looks like a Faberge egg. It actually does have also little a little opening in a basket inside, like they all do. But he was trying to steal it from this store, and the way he was trying to smuggle out, he actually ate it. He swallowed the dang thing. So now he's facing charges, he's being held and he is being watched.
00:18:03
Speaker 1: Very closely because they are waiting to recover it. Is that egg, that pendant worth nineteen thousand dollars? Will it still be worth nineteen thousand dollars after it passes through?
00:18:16
Speaker 4: Well, look, we've had stories like this before. We wondered, do they have to let the buyer know about this particular history of this?
00:18:24
Speaker 1: Would you wear a nineteen thousand dollars nestlace if it came out of someone's butt?
00:18:30
Speaker 4: If I saw, I didn't care, how you could sit it in front of me and show me how you clean it with the most powerful cleaners on planet Earth.
00:18:39
Speaker 3: Nope, that happened.
00:18:41
Speaker 1: Apparently this diamond has this diamond, This pendant has hundreds of diamonds and sapphires, and was inspired by one of your favorite movements.
00:18:49
Speaker 4: Yes nineteen eighty three Sean Connery Octopus James Bond film, where a Faberge egg was the centerpiece of that movie, so it was designed.
00:18:58
Speaker 1: Even with your love of James Bond, you still wouldn't want that necklace anywhere?
00:19:02
Speaker 2: Would you put it around my neck?
00:19:04
Speaker 3: Now? Because I would? I had to look at you. That's almost worse.
00:19:09
Speaker 1: I just don't know how anybody would choose to wear that after this?
00:19:13
Speaker 2: Okay, all right?
00:19:14
Speaker 1: Next up on the run onto much happier, happier stories.
00:19:19
Speaker 2: Congrats, this is cool.
00:19:20
Speaker 1: To Miley Cyrus, the Grammy winner is officially engaged to Max Mirando.
00:19:28
Speaker 2: It's so funny.
00:19:29
Speaker 1: He's twenty seven, she's thirty three, and I saw this hole she did this. People are asking her about how she handles the age difference. Do you think anybody would ever ask a man who's only six years older than his wife or his fiance how they handle the age difference?
00:19:44
Speaker 3: What is the question? Though they're age appropriate.
00:19:48
Speaker 2: Six years apart, but what is the she's older than him.
00:19:50
Speaker 1: So anytime a woman is older than a man, people are like, ooh, how does that work?
00:19:54
Speaker 4: But that's got to start where though it's some nobody's asking us that.
00:20:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, maybe because he's in his twenties and she's in her thirties.
00:20:03
Speaker 3: What if she was forty three and he's thirty seven.
00:20:06
Speaker 2: We're in different decades right now. That happens.
00:20:09
Speaker 3: I didn't know that debate was going on.
00:20:10
Speaker 2: I saw it and I thought, are you a serious right now?
00:20:12
Speaker 1: Someone actually had the guts to ask her, and she actually was really gracious and said, you know what, he keeps me up on things sometimes, like he has different perspectives, and I think that's cool and it keeps it interesting. But she actually answered it without being offended, which I thought was cool.
00:20:27
Speaker 4: Thirty five year old man, twenty five year old woman. Do you get asked that question?
00:20:31
Speaker 3: No?
00:20:32
Speaker 2: No, But if it were reversed year old woman, twenty five year old man, yes, one hundred percent, she would be.
00:20:37
Speaker 4: Maybe we need to do an extra episode on it. I did not know that was the thing, And now I'm interested. I'm very interested. Yeah, all right, finally here folks, powerball drawing tonight. I just to let you know, seven hundred and seventy five million dollars up for grabs. We haven't had a winter since September and that was one point seven and eight billion was that last one? So if you take the cash option, that's three hundred and sixty two point six million dollars.
00:20:58
Speaker 3: Good luck to you all night, And I mean that.
00:21:01
Speaker 1: And I know we always say we're going to go get one and we've only done it once when it was the one point seven billion whatever. But I am going to remember to get It's not because I don't want.
00:21:12
Speaker 2: I forget, but I am not going to forget today.
00:21:15
Speaker 4: I'll sit on the sidelines. I'll wait, I'll wait all right before we let you go. Something we'd like for you to consider it is our quote of the day Robes this just for you quote. Even at the worst, there is a way out, a hidden secret that can turn failure into success and despair into happiness. No situation is so dark that there is not a ray of light.
00:21:40
Speaker 2: That's cool. It's funny.
00:21:41
Speaker 1: While you were I love the quote, and while you were reading it, I was thinking you were going to give me the secret.
00:21:47
Speaker 4: A hidden secret that can turn failure into success and despair into happiness.
00:21:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give it to you.
00:21:53
Speaker 1: What is it?
00:21:54
Speaker 4: And with that, folks, we appreciate you running with us as always. No, I'm not going to give the secret to wait here. Oh okay, come on, all right, secret one more time for your folks. Even at the words, there's a way out, a hidden secret that concern failure into success and despair into happiness. No situation is so dark that there is not a ray of light comes to us from Norman Vincent Pearl.
00:22:18
Speaker 1: You know what I do as a pearl of wisdom right there, I actually believe that there's always something to learn. There's always something and you know what, in the darkest of tragedies you see people at their best. And I agree, so there is always always a ray of light.
00:22:33

Story that jumped out. There's a big man hunt going on in Georgia right now. Yes, they say he's an armed and dangerous guy. For Robes, he had an uber escape. This guy escaped in part via uber. They're trying to figure out how this was possible.
00:01:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, how do he have an Uber account? How do you have a cell phone? I'm very confused.
00:01:06
Speaker 4: We all are confused. Also, egg prices have been going what up or down? They remember they were skyrocketing for a while, but the prices have steady that have come down. But yesterday the most expensive egg ever sold was sold in London.
00:01:21
Speaker 2: Yeah it's not one you eat.
00:01:22
Speaker 4: Okay, you should point that out. How did you give it away? I'm sure that's what they were thinking. But as always, folks, top right corner of your Apple podcast app on our show page has a button there that says follow click that you can get our updates coming to you. And there have been a lot, including on the Brian Walls trial. And what I'm saying is there's a lot of stuff that we have been rapidly responding to, So follow and we can get those always to you in your inbox. Always joining us or also i should say joining us On the run this morning, Sabrina Carpenter will be with us. Miley Cyrus, the San Francisco City Attorney, Netflix on the run with us, as well as Matt Bennepps.
00:01:58
Speaker 2: Also on the run.
00:02:00
Speaker 1: The DC shooter makes a court appearance from a hospital bed and Brian Walsh's jaw dropping internet searches. TJ just mentioned we have been following this court trial very closely, been watching it.
00:02:14
Speaker 2: There are cameras in the courtroom.
00:02:15
Speaker 1: So we have an update for you today, but keep checking out throughout the day like we have. It's remarkable what has already been shown in court as evidence, and it just keeps getting more and more fascinating.
00:02:28
Speaker 4: We could have done a full episode yesterday just reading his internet searches. Yes, is what the trial was, all right, with an update on that coming up, But let's get going here. There was an election last night, but somebody has to win, somebody has to lose, but everybody's saying they want We talked about Republicans and Democrats both claiming victory in that closely watched congressional race in Tennessee, the seventh district. This was seen and why it was a big deal was seen as a referendum on President Trump's second term.
00:02:55
Speaker 1: Yes, technically and officially. Matt Van Epps, the Republican, won by about nine points. But the reason why Democrats are claiming a victory is because they're saying, ha ha, he only won by single digits. Trump took the state by twenty two points, I believe, so they feel like they've made massive inroads.
00:03:14
Speaker 2: In that area.
00:03:15
Speaker 1: Sure, so the Democrat was often ben and she has now made a name for herself because all eyes were on this district as truly a referendum on President Trump.
00:03:24
Speaker 4: Normally this wouldn't be a barn burner. Somebody won by nine points, but hey, they cut it in half.
00:03:31
Speaker 1: And so they are hoping that that means more to come for the midterm elections for Democrats.
00:03:36
Speaker 2: All right.
00:03:36
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, the Trump administration is pausing immigration cases for everybody from nineteen countries. And which countries are they Well, they're described as countries of concern.
00:03:50
Speaker 4: Yes, these countries we have heard about before in this administration with a travel band. So what this new thing does now they're saying it halts allreation cases for people from nineteen countries that are already in process or already in the country, So people might be in the middle of green card cases, their naturalization ceremony might be coming up, essentially stopping everything for new review. Now, there was already this travel ban in place for these nineteen countries, but this new announcement goes further by stopping the adjudication of all cases involving people from these places. And again they did this back in June. They said, there's essentially a travel ban that almost made it impossible for anybody to come for these nineteen countries. So it was a little confusing, like, what's the addition here, Well, it is a big deal.
00:04:37
Speaker 1: It certainly is in some of the countries who have been named Afghanistan, Me and mar Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia. A lot was said about Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, etc. But yeah, the Somalia rhetoric was off the chart.
00:05:01
Speaker 4: Yes, this is not paraphrasing that he called the place garbage and said that he doesn't want some allies that are in this country here. He said, to be honest with you, I don't want them here. He said that and called ilan Omar garbage as well. He said this in the it was a long cabinet meeting yesterday that was aired live on the night.
00:05:19
Speaker 3: He flat out said it.
00:05:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no way to even try to put it into context because it is what it is, and it gets to a point now where I think we still have to acknowledge the shock and the disrespect and the tone. It's wildly offensive and especially disturbing coming from our president. You can have your feelings, it's just to use the word garbage to describe human beings as tough.
00:05:47
Speaker 4: All right, continuing on the run here now, folks, the doctor who pleaded guilty in Matthew Perry's death is set to be sentenced today. This is the guy who sold ketamine to Matthew Perry.
00:05:58
Speaker 1: Now, Perry died back in October of twenty twenty three from an overdose. That doctor his name is doctor Salvador Placensi, and the prosecutors are asking that he spent three years behind bars for Perry's death. The defense is asking for zero prison time.
00:06:15
Speaker 3: Now.
00:06:15
Speaker 1: To be clear, doctor plus sense is not accused of selling Perry that fatal dose, but he is accused of selling him large amounts in the weeks that led up to his death that facilitated Perry's ability to take more than he should have.
00:06:31
Speaker 4: I didn't remember actually a lot of the backstory, but he had been subscribe prescribed, excuse me, ketamine, but he wanted larger doses. His doctor wouldn't prescribe, so he ended up calling to these other places, actor.
00:06:44
Speaker 2: Shopping, and yes, found somebody who would do it all right.
00:06:47
Speaker 4: Continuing on the run here now, the suspect in the DC's shooting those two National Guard members made his first court appearance yesterday. He did it remotely. He's still in the hospital. He did enter a not guilty plea to first degree murder and assault with intent to kill. Andrew Wolfe is still in serious condition right now. Twenty four year old. The President said he's fighting for his life. But we heard positive signs of what is. He gave a thumbs up top, wiggled his toes. I believe, so that's positive. But Sarah Bextrom, the twenty year old, she did die from her wounds, but good to hear he was. I hope we keep getting those updates about Andrew wolf.
00:07:22
Speaker 1: Yes, we are certainly keeping him in our thoughts in prayers. But next up on our run, Netflix now Defending Itself and that new Ditty documentary everyone is talking about Sean Combs The Reckoning. It dropped yesterday despite a cease and desist order from Ditty's team, claiming the documentary uses stolen, unauthorized footage. You see it in the first five minutes of the first episode of this four part series. You are actually listening to and watching Ditty talk to his attorneys six days before he was arrested. So here's Netflix's official statement. The claims being made about Shawn Combs the reckoning are false. The project has no ties to any past conversations between Shawn Combs and Netflix. The footage of Comb's leading up to his indictment and arrest were legally obtained. This is not a hit piece or an active retribution. Curtis Jackson is an executive producer, but does not have creative control.
00:08:22
Speaker 2: No one was paid to participate.
00:08:24
Speaker 1: This was, of course, in reaction to Ditty's team saying that fifty cent Curtis Jackson has a vendetta, is a longtime rival, why would you give him creative control over a documentary about Ditty? And they claimed that footage couldn't have been legally procured.
00:08:41
Speaker 4: I don't know how it's possible. I can't wait to hear that answer. But you and I watched the first episode and did not come away feeling like it was a vendetta or was too one sided or it seemed personal.
00:08:50
Speaker 1: No, it actually I learned a lot. It seemed straightforward and explained. Perhaps the ditty we saw in cord or all of the out llegations around him made a little bit.
00:09:03
Speaker 4: More sense and continue on the run here now on this Wednesday morning. Testimony set to resume this morning in the trial of Brian Walsh, the Massachusetts man who's admitted to dismembering and disposing of his wife's body but says he didn't kill her.
00:09:17
Speaker 1: So much of yesterday's testimony focused on his Internet searches in the immediate aftermath of her death. We're talking within hours, if not minutes of her death. Some of the searches will just read them aloud to you. Ten ways to dispose of a body if you really need to. How long before a body starts to smell? Is it possible to clean DNA off a knife?
00:09:40
Speaker 4: And that one's key because no one knows how she died. Nobody was there, and so this search gives some kind of an indication of maybe a knife was used in her merger. That was That was one of the biggest that jumped out yesterday.
00:09:54
Speaker 1: Yes, there was also and he's admitted to dismembering her body. But among the searches how to saw a body, how to dismember a body, he was trying to find out how to clean up blood stains. So again, if his claim that she died of a natural causes or some sudden death, why is he cleaning up blood? Why is he searching about a knife? So those are all questions that the defense is certainly having a difficult time trying to answer.
00:10:20
Speaker 4: We will see them try again today. The testimony resumes at nine am. Continue on the Run. Now, a man hunt underway in Georgia for a guy who took an uber as part of his escape.
00:10:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes zero sense. We're talking about Timothy Shane, fifty two years old. He is considered armed and dangerous and apparently has a cell phone available to him as well. He was originally taken into custody last month after he led police on a chase. He was transferred to the hospital though after a suicide attempt, and somehow while he was in the hospital around one thirty in the morning on Monday, he was able to walk away on foot. He stole an suv, he crashed it, he fled on foot again and then was able somehow to call an uber which picked him up near a residence.
00:11:08
Speaker 4: I have no idea they at least they haven't said how they think it was possible. Obviously he had to have a cell phone or somebody did it on his behalf. But some kind of way they knew to go to the area and he was gone by the time they got there. Called an uber, an uber escape. This is incredible. That was escape in New Orleans. We saw where the guys all just jumped through a hole in the wall.
00:11:31
Speaker 1: Yeah and just said too easy, yes, and just went right through, ripped toilet off the wall and we walked out.
00:11:39
Speaker 4: Okay, these are I'm laughing a little because we just walked through a hole in the wall and I called an uber.
00:11:47
Speaker 3: Those are not daring capers and escapes.
00:11:50
Speaker 1: No.
00:11:51
Speaker 2: And then there was the case I forgot where were the guy?
00:11:53
Speaker 1: I think this was actually an Arkansas where he just made a makeshift like silly kind of a fish looking outfit and walked right out the front door like he was some guard or something, wrote sheriff.
00:12:05
Speaker 4: On the back, this will fool them and walked right out the place. HI, Well, keep it on. What's happening in Georgia. We continue on the run. Now, let's head to the Bay Area where San Francisco is suing all your favorite food and the people who make it. This is a big, big deal, Sultan, a first of its kind lawsuit.
00:12:24
Speaker 2: That's right.
00:12:24
Speaker 1: So the city assuming ten major food companies We're talking craft Hines, Coca Cola, PepsiCo, General Mills, Neslie, Kellogg, et cetera, all a part of what they are calling a public health crisis. They say it's this is all over or ultra processed food that is designed to be harmful and addictive. I believe there's a seventy percent of food you find in the grocery store is in this ultra processed category, and that is what most Americans are consuming.
00:12:54
Speaker 4: So now, the companies themselves haven't responded at least as this recording to the lawsuit, But an industry group that does speak for these for these big companies, put it this way. There is certainly no agreed upon scientific definition of ultra processed foods, and attempting to classify foods as unhealthy simply because they are processed, or demonizing food by ignoring its full nutrient content misleads consumers and exacerbates health disparities.
00:13:22
Speaker 2: Look, I don't know.
00:13:23
Speaker 1: This is a tough one, because yes, I think. And they said, this was an interesting moment where San Francisco, the attorney general there is aligning himself with the Trump administration in a rare moment because they said, this sounds a lot like what RFK Junior is trying to do with his Make America Healthy Again campaigns. So they are actually aligned on this.
00:13:43
Speaker 3: Wonder they'll have a press conference together.
00:13:46
Speaker 2: Holding hands and singing Kumbaya. Can't wait? All right?
00:13:49
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, Trump is trolling pop stars again. This time it's Sabrina Carpenter and she is not happy.
00:13:57
Speaker 3: Why does he do this?
00:13:58
Speaker 2: This is because he can.
00:14:00
Speaker 4: It's a thing now I expect that. I'm waiting for the next one he did is with Taylor Swift. He did it with Kenny Loggins. What was that Highway to the danger Zone?
00:14:08
Speaker 2: Danger Zone where he was flying a.
00:14:09
Speaker 3: Fighter jet and pooping on protesters?
00:14:11
Speaker 1: Yes?
00:14:11
Speaker 3: Something right?
00:14:12
Speaker 4: Okay, yes, yes that one. So this time Sabrina Carpenter her song Juno the President and his folks. They used it in an online video that was promoting ice raid.
00:14:21
Speaker 2: Much like Olivia Rodrigo just a few weeks ago.
00:14:23
Speaker 4: Ah, I forgot about her. Yes, same thing, and she came out swinging about it as well.
00:14:27
Speaker 2: Yes she did.
00:14:28
Speaker 1: She actually put a comment in this section saying stop using my music, you are not allowed to.
00:14:34
Speaker 4: And what they deleted, and then all of her fans kept reposting in it and he can't do anything about it. But this time Sabrina Carpenter got on social media and said, quote, this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda. Have we seen has he been forced legally to take any other dent?
00:14:52
Speaker 2: He does take it down.
00:14:52
Speaker 1: Once they say something like that publicly or put it in the comments section before it's deleted, they will turn the audio off. But at that they've gotten probably hours and hours of views, and they've made their point.
00:15:04
Speaker 4: And then we're talking. I didn't even know about the video until this. All right, we'll stay with us folks here on this Wednesday morning run. When we come back, Egg prices are going through the roof, at least for one egg. Also, that poor police officer down in New Zealand, you won't believe the job he has Right now, a bit. Congrats to Miley, Cyrus and folks, let's get rich today.
00:15:35
Speaker 1: Continuing out on our Wednesday morning run. Next up on the run, one egg, one egg, One egg sold for thirty million dollars.
00:15:45
Speaker 3: That's a good egg.
00:15:46
Speaker 2: How is that?
00:15:47
Speaker 3: But I'm bump.
00:15:50
Speaker 1: It's not just an egg you eat. It's nothing that you would crack. Hopefully, this is a rare Faberge egg. It was auctioned off in London yesterday. This is the most that a Faberge egg has ever sold for. Again that price tag, specifically, thirty point two million dollars.
00:16:07
Speaker 4: I say, every time one of these goes to auction, it breaks the record for the previous one. So yes, this is a new Faberge egg record. Why is this one a big deal? Well, it's called the Winter Egg. It's made of rock crystal, has forty five hundred tiny diamonds in it. It opens as a tiny basket of quartz flowers on the inside. Now, the auction house here actually called this the Mona Lisa for Decorative Arts. They say this egg is a big deal.
00:16:31
Speaker 1: You weren't buying it just I mean, okay, I'm amazed that people would pay that much for a tiny egg. But I actually didn't know the history. You found out Faberge. Yeah, Peter Carl Faberget. He only created fifty eggs, so I guess, yes, if you you only have a finite amount, they go up in value significantly. But he created them for the Russian Imperial Family between the years of eighteen eighty five and nineteen seventeen.
00:16:59
Speaker 4: How many movies we've seen where a Faberge egg is being stolen or something like that, and we hear, we know they're precious and we know they're a big deal. I didn't realize, but yeah, he was this master jeweler or whatever, and they went to him.
00:17:09
Speaker 3: He made just a handful.
00:17:11
Speaker 1: I had no idea. And this is just so bizarre, babe, because we don't have just one Faberge egg story. We have two Faberge egg stories, and this one takes the cake.
00:17:25
Speaker 2: So also, also on.
00:17:28
Speaker 1: The Faberget front, something I've never uttered in New Zealand, there are officers right now who are assigned to monitor an inmate until he poops a pendant.
00:17:39
Speaker 4: Yes, very special pendent. It's a Faberget pendant. So it looks like a Faberge egg. It actually does have also little a little opening in a basket inside, like they all do. But he was trying to steal it from this store, and the way he was trying to smuggle out, he actually ate it. He swallowed the dang thing. So now he's facing charges, he's being held and he is being watched.
00:18:03
Speaker 1: Very closely because they are waiting to recover it. Is that egg, that pendant worth nineteen thousand dollars? Will it still be worth nineteen thousand dollars after it passes through?
00:18:16
Speaker 4: Well, look, we've had stories like this before. We wondered, do they have to let the buyer know about this particular history of this?
00:18:24
Speaker 1: Would you wear a nineteen thousand dollars nestlace if it came out of someone's butt?
00:18:30
Speaker 4: If I saw, I didn't care, how you could sit it in front of me and show me how you clean it with the most powerful cleaners on planet Earth.
00:18:39
Speaker 3: Nope, that happened.
00:18:41
Speaker 1: Apparently this diamond has this diamond, This pendant has hundreds of diamonds and sapphires, and was inspired by one of your favorite movements.
00:18:49
Speaker 4: Yes nineteen eighty three Sean Connery Octopus James Bond film, where a Faberge egg was the centerpiece of that movie, so it was designed.
00:18:58
Speaker 1: Even with your love of James Bond, you still wouldn't want that necklace anywhere?
00:19:02
Speaker 2: Would you put it around my neck?
00:19:04
Speaker 3: Now? Because I would? I had to look at you. That's almost worse.
00:19:09
Speaker 1: I just don't know how anybody would choose to wear that after this?
00:19:13
Speaker 2: Okay, all right?
00:19:14
Speaker 1: Next up on the run onto much happier, happier stories.
00:19:19
Speaker 2: Congrats, this is cool.
00:19:20
Speaker 1: To Miley Cyrus, the Grammy winner is officially engaged to Max Mirando.
00:19:28
Speaker 2: It's so funny.
00:19:29
Speaker 1: He's twenty seven, she's thirty three, and I saw this hole she did this. People are asking her about how she handles the age difference. Do you think anybody would ever ask a man who's only six years older than his wife or his fiance how they handle the age difference?
00:19:44
Speaker 3: What is the question? Though they're age appropriate.
00:19:48
Speaker 2: Six years apart, but what is the she's older than him.
00:19:50
Speaker 1: So anytime a woman is older than a man, people are like, ooh, how does that work?
00:19:54
Speaker 4: But that's got to start where though it's some nobody's asking us that.
00:20:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, maybe because he's in his twenties and she's in her thirties.
00:20:03
Speaker 3: What if she was forty three and he's thirty seven.
00:20:06
Speaker 2: We're in different decades right now. That happens.
00:20:09
Speaker 3: I didn't know that debate was going on.
00:20:10
Speaker 2: I saw it and I thought, are you a serious right now?
00:20:12
Speaker 1: Someone actually had the guts to ask her, and she actually was really gracious and said, you know what, he keeps me up on things sometimes, like he has different perspectives, and I think that's cool and it keeps it interesting. But she actually answered it without being offended, which I thought was cool.
00:20:27
Speaker 4: Thirty five year old man, twenty five year old woman. Do you get asked that question?
00:20:31
Speaker 3: No?
00:20:32
Speaker 2: No, But if it were reversed year old woman, twenty five year old man, yes, one hundred percent, she would be.
00:20:37
Speaker 4: Maybe we need to do an extra episode on it. I did not know that was the thing, And now I'm interested. I'm very interested. Yeah, all right, finally here folks, powerball drawing tonight. I just to let you know, seven hundred and seventy five million dollars up for grabs. We haven't had a winter since September and that was one point seven and eight billion was that last one? So if you take the cash option, that's three hundred and sixty two point six million dollars.
00:20:58
Speaker 3: Good luck to you all night, And I mean that.
00:21:01
Speaker 1: And I know we always say we're going to go get one and we've only done it once when it was the one point seven billion whatever. But I am going to remember to get It's not because I don't want.
00:21:12
Speaker 2: I forget, but I am not going to forget today.
00:21:15
Speaker 4: I'll sit on the sidelines. I'll wait, I'll wait all right before we let you go. Something we'd like for you to consider it is our quote of the day Robes this just for you quote. Even at the worst, there is a way out, a hidden secret that can turn failure into success and despair into happiness. No situation is so dark that there is not a ray of light.
00:21:40
Speaker 2: That's cool. It's funny.
00:21:41
Speaker 1: While you were I love the quote, and while you were reading it, I was thinking you were going to give me the secret.
00:21:47
Speaker 4: A hidden secret that can turn failure into success and despair into happiness.
00:21:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give it to you.
00:21:53
Speaker 1: What is it?
00:21:54
Speaker 4: And with that, folks, we appreciate you running with us as always. No, I'm not going to give the secret to wait here. Oh okay, come on, all right, secret one more time for your folks. Even at the words, there's a way out, a hidden secret that concern failure into success and despair into happiness. No situation is so dark that there is not a ray of light comes to us from Norman Vincent Pearl.
