Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good morning everybody. It is Tuesday, May fifth. I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes.
00:00:12
Speaker 2: I paused there for some reason that was strange for me even but yes, it's the fifth of May. It is single DeMaio and a reminder. Don't go out and tell anybody happy Mexican Independence Day. Most will check you really quickly. Well, some will, but some don't realize. It's worth always noting that this isn't Mexican Independence Day. That's later in September. This celebrates the Battle of Pueblo. They beat the French. It was unlikely eighteen sixty two. There you go. Today is naughty. It's just a regular day in Mexico.
00:00:44
Speaker 1: Yes, but here in America we like to use it as an excuse to eat a ton of chips and guac and pound some margaritas.
00:00:54
Speaker 2: Yes it's what we do. Yes, they call it on here, but there it's just another day, no holiday, no federal buildings closed, know, nothing like that. But enjoy your sinko de maayo. Today. It's a fun day. It's a fun day. We have plans, we plan on it. We're not even in Mexico. We're gonna go find a Mexican place all right now, wherever you may be, glad you are here with us. This morning. We will be making several stops on the run this morning, including a run in Tennessee. We're gonna be making a stop in Morocco, make a stop on the Red Carpet and the met Gala as well, where things got really interesting robes this morning. We need to start with the back and forth. It's more lack of clarity when it comes to what we're doing in the war with Iran and where we are in the war with Iran. I ask you, is the ceasefire in place or not?
00:01:40
Speaker 1: And I think that's a question that right now is a rhetorical one almost because it's something that we've been asking and there is no real clarity. This has been confusing to cover, confusing to understand, because yeah, they're not saying the ceasefire is over, but the US and Iran are both once again firing shots at one another. First iron hit energy targets in the UAE and then fired at ships being escorted through the Strait of Horneus.
00:02:11
Speaker 3: By the US Navy.
00:02:13
Speaker 1: Those attacks were thankfully repelled by the US Navy, but then we went on to then destroy several Iranian small arms boats.
00:02:20
Speaker 2: Okay, so after what you just heard, you would say, well, dj Amy, obviously the ceasefire is over. But the President of the United States is not saying that. He was to ask directly about this in an interview yesterday. His response was, I can't tell you that. So he's at least Robes publicly. You know, he's not shy, So he's at least right now finding a reason to have some restraint in what he is saying publicly.
00:02:46
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we will continue to keep our eye on that developing situation. But next up on the run, there's another big one out there, that cruise ship we told you about yesterday with a suspected hunt of virus outbreak, looking.
00:03:00
Speaker 3: For somewhere to go right now.
00:03:02
Speaker 1: It's off the coast of the West African island nation of Cape Verde, which has so far denied the ship access to its ports.
00:03:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, at least three people have died, another three are sick, all believed to have been infected by hantavirus, a rare virus found in rodent droppings. We just got an update Robes on this this morning that one of the fears they had is that this was going to start spreading from person to person, which is extremely rare. That is not a strain that is prevalent. Well, they've just reported this morning the World Health Organization that they do believe they have an instance of human to human transmission rode. Wow, that takes this story now to a different level and a different fear of having one hundred and seventy possibly exposed people with an incubation period.
00:03:49
Speaker 3: Of one to eight weeks floating around.
00:03:53
Speaker 2: In the world. You can't just let them out. How do you clear these folks robes?
00:03:57
Speaker 1: And it's understandable that nobody wants them to come into their port and to mingle among their community. No, and so look, there's been talk about how they're going to medically evacuate.
00:04:08
Speaker 3: There are two people who.
00:04:10
Speaker 1: Are ill who require or would be better off in a hospital.
00:04:15
Speaker 3: Where do you take these folks?
00:04:17
Speaker 1: And how do you isolate and continue to quarantine the one hundred and seventy passengers and seventy crew members on board that ship who potentially have been exposed to this virus.
00:04:28
Speaker 2: Robes, all the specially equipment, the doctors, the person now especially trained to handle this, aren't hanging out on the west coast of Africa. They're not in region like it takes so long to even get things and supplies and people in place. This is a hell of a story now, Robes. But that is scary, folks. Keep an eye on this. Yeah, well, we don't want to scare you, but we're talking about a disease that there's no cure for that they're now saying is possibly being transferred human to human and they don't know how many humans on this ship right now are infected.
00:05:02
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:05:03
Speaker 1: And by the way, just to point out the hunt of virus forty death rate, that is disturbing. That is a highly deadly virus.
00:05:12
Speaker 2: Last thing we forgot Ropes two people at least, yeah, they were confirmed now dead, got off that boat. They were in an airport.
00:05:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ropes.
00:05:22
Speaker 2: This is this story has taken a turn for holy.
00:05:26
Speaker 1: Hell, contact tracing from Hell. I can't even imagine that. So, yes, we will continue to keep our eye on that story. But next up on the Run, a manhunt continues in Tennessee for a man who shot his wife, and authorities are admitting.
00:05:39
Speaker 3: It might be difficult to capture him. It could take a while.
00:05:42
Speaker 1: Craig Berry is wanted for second degree attempted murder. But he's been on the run for five days now.
00:05:49
Speaker 2: Okay, police say last week. This is last Thursday. He shot his wife at their home in Stuart County, is in the northwest part of the state, then fled into the woods, a place where he might I thrive because robes. They say, he is a former Special Forces soldier and knows how to survive in that terrain. The police put it this way, quote, he has extensive training and survival tactics. He is an excellent swimmer and diver and is in good physical shape. They are essentially saying, we are out there hunting rambo. Wow, and this might take us a minute. Yeah. We don't know the condition of his wife. It's unclear at this point. And I didn't get worried whether or not they think these are life threatening injuries that she has. So we do not know.
00:06:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, we just know attempted murders. So the hope is that she is still okay and recovering all right. Next up on the Run, A we had a lot of these. A difficult follow up to a story we told you about yesterday. This one is so tough to hear because it was confusing how it could have happened. Now, we know two US service members missing in Morocco. They were there to participate in a multinational training exercise, but they were reported missing after they went on a hike. Well, the Defense Department now says they know what happened.
00:07:01
Speaker 2: So it was several service members on this hike. Apparently one of them fell into the Atlantic. During this hike, they attempted a human chain, they said rogues by putting their belts together and to try to get him out. That didn't work, so a second service member jumped into the water to try to save him. That second service member was immediately hit by a wave got in trouble as well.
00:07:24
Speaker 1: So then a third service member went into the water to try to rescue both of them. He wasn't able to rescue them, but he was thankfully able to make it back to shore safely. So it looks like these two service members were just taken out by the sea.
00:07:39
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, one died trying to save another. Yeah, and another almost died trying to save those two. The something about that story makes you proud, right, Wow, those guys were desperate doing all they could to try to save a fellow service member. That is a tough one. Continue on the run here now. The White House briefly went into lockdown yesterday after the Sea Service shot an armed man near the White House. Well, they shot him at the Washington Monument, but they had seen him earlier near the White House, I should.
00:08:09
Speaker 3: Say, all right.
00:08:10
Speaker 1: The incident happened when plain clothes agents saw the man and followed him, and when uniformed officers showed up, he then attempted to flee and exchange gunfire with the agents. The suspect was shot, as was a teenage boy who was hit in the crossfire. It's unclear right now who shot the teenager, but he is expected to recover.
00:08:33
Speaker 2: But yes, expect to be just fine. They even described it as minor injuries. But ropes. Here we go again. This is this is not too far removed from the White House correspondence dinner. You talk about another man near the White House with a gun. Scary, all right, Continuing here now on the run. We got this yesterday from Dolly Parton. She's canceled her much anticipated a Las Vegas residency for health reasons and ropes. She didn't get into too many specifics about the reason, but she did give us a pleasant update. It was bad news, but she made a smile and even laugh throughout her announcement.
00:09:02
Speaker 3: It's true.
00:09:02
Speaker 1: She posted a lengthy video, it's about five minutes, explaining she is not in good enough shape to perform at her Vagus residency that was set to take place in September. But she said that everything that she's dealing with medically is treatable.
00:09:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, it had already been rescheduled once.
00:09:21
Speaker 1: This residency was supposed to initially happen in December of twenty twenty five, they postponed it to September of twenty twenty six, and now it looks like it is not going to take place at all, which is certainly sad news for Dolly fans.
00:09:33
Speaker 2: I just want Dolly to be okay. If she never performs again and lives to one hundred and five, we'd prefer just to have her around.
00:09:40
Speaker 3: That's so sweet, right, so true.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: Stay with us here on this Tuesday Morning run when we come back as finally over the Blake Lively Justin Baldoni whole legal saga, Well it's over. They settled who won nobody. Also, the founder of the Gap has passed away at the age of ninety four. We'll tell you and explain some of the history of that company that really I didn't know. And then a big night last night at the met Gallop we saw Heidi klum or was that Heidi Kluone stay here?
00:10:20
Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone to your Tuesday Morning Ron And next up on the run the multi year explosive headline producing legal saga. It was a saga between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni is over and it ended with.
00:10:35
Speaker 2: A surprising thud when both sides announced they had settled their case. Lively had accused Baldoni of sexual harassment on the set of It Ends with Us, in which the two starred. She also had accused him in court of a public smear campaign.
00:10:50
Speaker 1: Baldoni countered with a defamation lawsuit, which set off a legal and public tit for tat that went on for the past year and a half, and the trial, this big, highly anticipated trial was set to begin.
00:11:02
Speaker 3: In two weeks.
00:11:03
Speaker 1: But yes yesterday, hours before the med Gala, they released a carefully crafted joint statement which said, in part, we acknowledged the process presented challenges and recognized concerns raised by miss Lively deserve to be heard. We remain firmly committed to workplaces free of improprieties and unproductive environments. It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online. Guess that's it, yep, I guess Blake got her concerns recognized.
00:11:40
Speaker 2: Allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online. All right, continue on the run here now. The co founder of The Gap has died. Doris Fisher passed away Saturday at the age of ninety four.
00:12:00
Speaker 1: Along with her husband Don, founded The Gap in nineteen sixty nine after Don had a frustrating experience shopping for jeans that fit, so they opened their own shop in San Francisco, which eventually grew into a multi brand, multi billion dollar business.
00:12:14
Speaker 3: I had no idea.
00:12:15
Speaker 2: I had no idea, But we hear so often that people have ideas. It comes out of their own experience, it comes out of necessity. He couldn't find jeans.
00:12:27
Speaker 3: Mess that's amazing.
00:12:29
Speaker 2: Well, he died like in two thousand and nine, and I didn't realize you see gap everywhere on these things. We'll be honest. Sometimes it turns us off from buying some gap stuf because I don't want to walk around with the big branding over my chest. But they make good stuff. It was literally meant to bridge the gap between older generation and younger generations. They were trying to hit that sweet spot in the middle, and that is where the company has stayed good for them. Idea.
00:12:57
Speaker 3: That is so cool.
00:12:58
Speaker 1: I never even thought of or knew the origins of the name the gap, but that's.
00:13:02
Speaker 2: What pretty legacy. That's a hell of a legacy.
00:13:04
Speaker 3: That's awesome all right.
00:13:05
Speaker 1: Finally on the run, the first ever bezos ball happened last night aka the med Gala.
00:13:12
Speaker 2: Did do you think they're offended by the bezels ball or they like it to be an insult.
00:13:16
Speaker 1: It's meant to be an insult, but I don't think they mind it. How does the Holmes ball sound doesn't have.
00:13:22
Speaker 2: The same ring? Good to be the alliteration bezos ball.
00:13:26
Speaker 3: It worked.
00:13:26
Speaker 1: I also liked the one you brought up that you saw Amazon Prime prom I might have made that up. Well, that was a good one. Thought Amazon Prime prom is pretty funny.
00:13:35
Speaker 2: Please remember everybody, you heard it here first, but it went off last night. A whole lot was made, of course, about the fact that Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder, and his wife reportedly paid ten million dollars to be sponsors and co chairs of the event. They were there, You did compliment. There was a lot of the theme of the night was what which one the theme of the night? Oh, it was fashion as art, fashion as art, and a lot of people took some great liberty and just went with it on that. But speaking of Besils White, I can't explain it right now, but you said she looked great in the dress, but it had a great art meaning.
00:14:08
Speaker 1: Uh, yes, yes, so it was no, no, no, I can I can find it because I wanted to get it right.
00:14:14
Speaker 3: It's Madam X.
00:14:15
Speaker 1: I believe was the Lauren Lauren Sanchez Bezos wore a dress that is depicted in a at the time was a very controversial painting in the eighteen hundreds of a woman who was known to be basically tastelessly dressed and like sexually appeal Yes, so she made that. She actually wore that exact dress that was depicted in this Madame X portrait that is hanging at the Met, and it was just basically kind of.
00:14:44
Speaker 3: A shot across the bow to her detractors, I.
00:14:46
Speaker 2: Had that was a good way to do it without saying a word. I didn't mind that so much. There were protests around the city really in the days leading up to people that put up posters and signs. There was a Met Gallip protest in which they put fake urine bottles all over the place, all kinds of stuff, but for the most part went off without a hitch. But some of the headlines I think, is Heidi Klum being talked about the most this morning?
00:15:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you didn't know it was Heidi Klume.
00:15:11
Speaker 1: She was literally dressed as a marble statue from the MET and.
00:15:15
Speaker 3: I've stared at it. I can barely tell it's her.
00:15:19
Speaker 1: And then you had bad Bunny who decided to rapidly age himself and really and like played the party. Had a cane, he had like a sad look on his face. But there was an exhibit in the Met that goes through a the aging process, and so he was replicating that. Apparently. Kylie Jenner I wasn't a fan of it. It was like the nipple show. People called it or the Missus doubt Fire. Look where she had like a padded nude bodice, almost looking like a suit that Robin Williams wore in Missus Doubtfire.
00:15:50
Speaker 2: You know most I do most guys. If you say she wore a padded nude bodice, don't we have to google what a padded nude bodice is.
00:15:58
Speaker 1: I don't know, probably, but it kind of looked almost like a corset top of address, but it was nude, padded and accentuated nipples and the front. It was bizarre, but that's part of what the met gala is all about. We had call Demigo, had looked festive, wouldn't be one way to put it, or courtestory, but it was.
00:16:19
Speaker 3: Fun and skipped it. Timothy Chalameay wasn't there.
00:16:21
Speaker 1: He was at the Knicks games, and Dea was with her husband, and Ariana Grande just wasn't there.
00:16:27
Speaker 3: So some skips and we don't know why, but people have their thoughts, yes, but.
00:16:32
Speaker 2: You can hear more of our thoughts. We have the episode what one or two before this one on the feed from today that we did post or we do a full breakdown recap of what happened last night at the Megalen All.
00:16:42
Speaker 1: Right, so we're gonna leave you on this Tuesday with our quote of the day. Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room.
00:16:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough, man. Is that a relationship quote?
00:16:56
Speaker 3: It could mean a lot of things.
00:16:57
Speaker 1: Career relationship, Yes, you could apply it to just about anything because a lot of times we stay with people or perhaps with positions, because we're afraid of change. We don't want to admit that we made a mistake, and so we just suffer. But that's ridiculous, think about it. I do like this sometimes. Yes, change is hard, Admitting your wrong is hard, but man, it can free you. It can free you. Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room. And with that, everyone, we always appreciate you running with us. I'm Amy Robox and I'm TJ.
00:17:31
Speaker 2: Holmes. Run soon.
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good morning everybody. It is Tuesday, May fifth. I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes.

00:00:54
Speaker 2: Yes it's what we do. Yes, they call it on here, but there it's just another day, no holiday, no federal buildings closed, know, nothing like that. But enjoy your sinko de maayo. Today.

She's canceled her much anticipated a Las Vegas residency for health reasons and ropes. She didn't get into too many specifics about the reason, but she did give us a pleasant update. It was bad news, but she made a smile and even laugh throughout her announcement.
00:09:02
Speaker 3: It's true.
00:09:02
Speaker 1: She posted a lengthy video, it's about five minutes, explaining she is not in good enough shape to perform at her Vagus residency that was set to take place in September. But she said that everything that she's dealing with medically is treatable.
00:09:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, it had already been rescheduled once.
00:09:21
Speaker 1: This residency was supposed to initially happen in December of twenty twenty five, they postponed it to September of twenty twenty six, and now it looks like it is not going to take place at all, which is certainly sad news for Dolly fans.
00:09:33
Speaker 2: I just want Dolly to be okay. If she never performs again and lives to one hundred and five, we'd prefer just to have her around.
00:09:40
Speaker 3: That's so sweet, right, so true.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: Stay with us here on this Tuesday Morning run when we come back as finally over the Blake Lively Justin Baldoni whole legal saga, Well it's over. They settled who won nobody. Also, the founder of the Gap has passed away at the age of ninety four. We'll tell you and explain some of the history of that company that really I didn't know. And then a big night last night at the met Gallop we saw Heidi klum or was that Heidi Kluone stay here?
00:10:20
Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone to your Tuesday Morning Ron And next up on the run the multi year explosive headline producing legal saga. It was a saga between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni is over and it ended with.
00:10:35
Speaker 2: A surprising thud when both sides announced they had settled their case. Lively had accused Baldoni of sexual harassment on the set of It Ends with Us, in which the two starred. She also had accused him in court of a public smear campaign.
00:10:50
Speaker 1: Baldoni countered with a defamation lawsuit, which set off a legal and public tit for tat that went on for the past year and a half, and the trial, this big, highly anticipated trial was set to begin.
00:11:02
Speaker 3: In two weeks.
00:11:03
Speaker 1: But yes yesterday, hours before the med Gala, they released a carefully crafted joint statement which said, in part, we acknowledged the process presented challenges and recognized concerns raised by miss Lively deserve to be heard. We remain firmly committed to workplaces free of improprieties and unproductive environments. It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online. Guess that's it, yep, I guess Blake got her concerns recognized.
00:11:40
Speaker 2: Allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online. All right, continue on the run here now. The co founder of The Gap has died. Doris Fisher passed away Saturday at the age of ninety four.
00:12:00
Speaker 1: Along with her husband Don, founded The Gap in nineteen sixty nine after Don had a frustrating experience shopping for jeans that fit, so they opened their own shop in San Francisco, which eventually grew into a multi brand, multi billion dollar business.
00:12:14
Speaker 3: I had no idea.
00:12:15
Speaker 2: I had no idea, But we hear so often that people have ideas. It comes out of their own experience, it comes out of necessity. He couldn't find jeans.
00:12:27
Speaker 3: Mess that's amazing.
00:12:29
Speaker 2: Well, he died like in two thousand and nine, and I didn't realize you see gap everywhere on these things. We'll be honest. Sometimes it turns us off from buying some gap stuf because I don't want to walk around with the big branding over my chest. But they make good stuff. It was literally meant to bridge the gap between older generation and younger generations. They were trying to hit that sweet spot in the middle, and that is where the company has stayed good for them. Idea.
00:12:57
Speaker 3: That is so cool.
00:12:58
Speaker 1: I never even thought of or knew the origins of the name the gap, but that's.
00:13:02
Speaker 2: What pretty legacy. That's a hell of a legacy.
00:13:04
Speaker 3: That's awesome all right.
00:13:05
Speaker 1: Finally on the run, the first ever bezos ball happened last night aka the med Gala.
00:13:12
Speaker 2: Did do you think they're offended by the bezels ball or they like it to be an insult.
00:13:16
Speaker 1: It's meant to be an insult, but I don't think they mind it. How does the Holmes ball sound doesn't have.
00:13:22
Speaker 2: The same ring? Good to be the alliteration bezos ball.
00:13:26
Speaker 3: It worked.
00:13:26
Speaker 1: I also liked the one you brought up that you saw Amazon Prime prom I might have made that up. Well, that was a good one. Thought Amazon Prime prom is pretty funny.
00:13:35
Speaker 2: Please remember everybody, you heard it here first, but it went off last night. A whole lot was made, of course, about the fact that Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder, and his wife reportedly paid ten million dollars to be sponsors and co chairs of the event. They were there, You did compliment. There was a lot of the theme of the night was what which one the theme of the night? Oh, it was fashion as art, fashion as art, and a lot of people took some great liberty and just went with it on that. But speaking of Besils White, I can't explain it right now, but you said she looked great in the dress, but it had a great art meaning.
00:14:08
Speaker 1: Uh, yes, yes, so it was no, no, no, I can I can find it because I wanted to get it right.
00:14:14
Speaker 3: It's Madam X.
00:14:15
Speaker 1: I believe was the Lauren Lauren Sanchez Bezos wore a dress that is depicted in a at the time was a very controversial painting in the eighteen hundreds of a woman who was known to be basically tastelessly dressed and like sexually appeal Yes, so she made that. She actually wore that exact dress that was depicted in this Madame X portrait that is hanging at the Met, and it was just basically kind of.
00:14:44
Speaker 3: A shot across the bow to her detractors, I.
00:14:46
Speaker 2: Had that was a good way to do it without saying a word. I didn't mind that so much. There were protests around the city really in the days leading up to people that put up posters and signs. There was a Met Gallip protest in which they put fake urine bottles all over the place, all kinds of stuff, but for the most part went off without a hitch. But some of the headlines I think, is Heidi Klum being talked about the most this morning?
00:15:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you didn't know it was Heidi Klume.
00:15:11
Speaker 1: She was literally dressed as a marble statue from the MET and.
00:15:15
Speaker 3: I've stared at it. I can barely tell it's her.
00:15:19
Speaker 1: And then you had bad Bunny who decided to rapidly age himself and really and like played the party. Had a cane, he had like a sad look on his face. But there was an exhibit in the Met that goes through a the aging process, and so he was replicating that. Apparently. Kylie Jenner I wasn't a fan of it. It was like the nipple show. People called it or the Missus doubt Fire. Look where she had like a padded nude bodice, almost looking like a suit that Robin Williams wore in Missus Doubtfire.
00:15:50
Speaker 2: You know most I do most guys. If you say she wore a padded nude bodice, don't we have to google what a padded nude bodice is.
00:15:58
Speaker 1: I don't know, probably, but it kind of looked almost like a corset top of address, but it was nude, padded and accentuated nipples and the front. It was bizarre, but that's part of what the met gala is all about. We had call Demigo, had looked festive, wouldn't be one way to put it, or courtestory, but it was.
00:16:19
Speaker 3: Fun and skipped it. Timothy Chalameay wasn't there.
00:16:21
Speaker 1: He was at the Knicks games, and Dea was with her husband, and Ariana Grande just wasn't there.
00:16:27
Speaker 3: So some skips and we don't know why, but people have their thoughts, yes, but.
00:16:32
Speaker 2: You can hear more of our thoughts. We have the episode what one or two before this one on the feed from today that we did post or we do a full breakdown recap of what happened last night at the Megalen All.
00:16:42
Speaker 1: Right, so we're gonna leave you on this Tuesday with our quote of the day. Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room.
00:16:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough, man. Is that a relationship quote?
00:16:56
Speaker 3: It could mean a lot of things.
00:16:57
Speaker 1: Career relationship, Yes, you could apply it to just about anything because a lot of times we stay with people or perhaps with positions, because we're afraid of change. We don't want to admit that we made a mistake, and so we just suffer. But that's ridiculous, think about it. I do like this sometimes. Yes, change is hard, Admitting your wrong is hard, but man, it can free you. It can free you. Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room. And with that, everyone, we always appreciate you running with us. I'm Amy Robox and I'm TJ.
00:17:31
Speaker 2: Holmes. Run soon.
