Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good morning everyone, and welcome to Morning Ron. It is Friday, March thirteenth.
00:00:12
Speaker 2: I made what'd you say like that?
00:00:14
Speaker 3: I was trying to be scary. Didn't work. I kind of sounded like Oprah.
00:00:20
Speaker 2: Does it make you nervous? You get worried about? Are you scared of Friday the thirteenth? No?
00:00:25
Speaker 3: I actually I like it. I think it's fun.
00:00:28
Speaker 1: And maybe that's because I'm a horror movie fan, but I just yeah, you know, it's silly, it's I'm cool with leaning into what will happen today in a very non serious way.
00:00:40
Speaker 2: But it is a serious thing. Folks. If you are scared of Friday the thirteenth, you have pasca fora day. Catriaphobia? What is a real thing? They have a name for it.
00:00:50
Speaker 3: One more time for me, please.
00:00:51
Speaker 2: Ask today catriaphobia. Obviously I rehearsed this, obviously, But for people who have a genuine anxiety over Friday the thirteenth, which comes, we get at least one a year, but sometimes three or.
00:01:06
Speaker 1: So three is the most you can have, and we have three this year, and we just had one last month.
00:01:12
Speaker 2: So people worry about it. The origins are a little sketchy and people don't exactly know why, but yes, it's the real thing. Obviously pop culture with the booties and what not. But it makes me want to why some Friday or thirteen.
00:01:26
Speaker 1: I think we've done it before in the past, why not lean into it again today?
00:01:30
Speaker 2: It'll be happening today for sure. But the morning to you all on this Friday. Glad you could spend some time running with us, and I am T J. Holmes. I didn't introduce myself as well, but on the run this morning, I'm going to be making stopt in Michigan, in Utah, Quantico, Virginia, in Iran, also in our nation's airports. But we do need to get started this morning. Robes. A couple of incidents, a couple of attacks in the country yesterday, one of them in Michigan.
00:01:55
Speaker 1: That's right in Detroit or just outside of Detroit. Authorities have identified the suspect in that attack on a Michigan synagogue. Forty one year old I'm in Mohammed Ghazali died yesterday after he rammed his vehicle, according to police, through the doors of the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield.
00:02:14
Speaker 2: Police say Gazali, who is a naturalized US citizen originally from Lebanon, was armed with a rifle and died after he was confronted by security. They believe he had explosive something of some kind in that vehicle, because once he drove it into that school, into the synagogue, it caught fire and robes. We saw video of smoke like this was a significant fire, and we saw smoke coming out of that building, and miraculously no one was injured in that synagogue. How many school children do they say, we're in there at the times at the time, A.
00:02:49
Speaker 1: Bunch, yes, enough for it was of deep concern, and look, this guy was, according to police, armed with a rifle and intended to do harm. So a big sigh of relief that truly only he was the only casualty in the attack. But next up on the run we had to Norfolk, Virginia, where that was not the case. The FBI is investigating yesterday's shooting on the campus of Old Dominion University as a terrorist act.
00:03:16
Speaker 2: Gunman opened fire in an academic building, killing one instructor and injuring two others. Police say it was ROTC students that subdued the suspect and as they put it, they were able to terminate the threat. They are not right now robe saying exactly what happened and how the suspect died, But he died at the hands of these ROTC students.
00:03:37
Speaker 1: Yes, And that suspect has been identified as Mohammed Ajola. He was a former National guardsman who had just served time in prison after he was convicted for giving materials support to ISIS.
00:03:52
Speaker 3: And if you want to hear more.
00:03:53
Speaker 1: About these two suspects, please please please listen to our podcast just before this one earlier this morning. We go into great detail about who these two attackers were and it is chilling to learn the details and how this all potentially happened.
00:04:11
Speaker 2: Yesterday, all right, continuing on the run on this Friday morning, we heard from Iran's new Supreme leader for the first time yesterday, or so we're told we heard from the new Supreme leader because state television there in Iran read what it said was a statement from Moshtaba Kamahamane, but we didn't actually see him or hear his voice.
00:04:31
Speaker 1: That's right, So in this message that was purportedly from him was actually read by someone else, but Hamane says that Iran will keep up its attacks as well as continued to block that tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormus.
00:04:46
Speaker 2: Continuing on the run here now, the Pentagon just this morning, just a short time really before this recording, confirmed that four US service members died after a US military aircraft went down in a rock. Two others on board survived, according to the Pentagon, but US Central Command made the initial announcement yesterday about the crash, saying they were aware of the loss of a US KC one th five refueling aircraft.
00:05:13
Speaker 1: That statement went on to say this the incident occurred in friendly airspace during Operation Epic Fury, and rescue efforts are ongoing. Two aircraft were involved in the incident. One of the aircraft went down in western Iraq and the second landed safely. This was not due to hostile fire or friendly fire, they arcing, firming this was a refueling situation where they just there was just an unfortunate accident that took place.
00:05:38
Speaker 2: I want to reminder we think about combat operations, soldiers being fired at and attacked, but everything they do is dangerous, yes.
00:05:47
Speaker 3: Right, including mid air refueling dangerous. Yes, all right, we'll next up on the run.
00:05:51
Speaker 1: The so called grief author murder trial took a very unexpected turn yesterday when the defense rested its case without calling a single witness.
00:06:02
Speaker 3: Seconds after the prosecution rested their case.
00:06:05
Speaker 2: Man, this is Corey rich and the Utah mother of three. She's accused of poisoning her husband with a fentanyl least drink. She then later wrote a children's book meant to help kids deal with the loss of a parents.
00:06:16
Speaker 1: Prosecutors put on two weeks of witnesses and rested their case yesterday, and all signs pointed to the defense calling witnesses, at least three of them.
00:06:24
Speaker 3: But suddenly they just decided to rest.
00:06:28
Speaker 1: So today both the attorneys or the attorneys for both sides will work out basic juror instructions with the judge and then on Monday closing arguments and the jury gets the case.
00:06:39
Speaker 2: I continue on the run here now. I'm not sure how many positions you can be in in life where you like to hear the word.
00:06:46
Speaker 1: Plunged, unless you're talking about a pool in hot weather plunging into a pool.
00:06:51
Speaker 2: Isn't there something women wear a plunge.
00:06:53
Speaker 3: A plunge neckline, that's a thing. Well yeah, plunging neckline.
00:06:58
Speaker 2: Neckline. Well, you don't want to here plunged when you're talking about the stock market, however.
00:07:03
Speaker 3: No, you do not.
00:07:04
Speaker 1: Yes, unfortunately though, that is what we're talking about. The Dow took a dive yesterday, closing down seven hundred points. This is all due to fears about the ongoing war with Iran and just how long it might last. And that's the concern about the selloff, like how long is this going on?
00:07:22
Speaker 3: When is the end?
00:07:23
Speaker 1: We're hearing mixed messaging from the White House. The war is over, we still have a fight to fight. It's confusing. I don't know, we have no idea. It's just going to be over very soon.
00:07:35
Speaker 2: Okay, you just summed up the entire message coming out of the White House. That's not it. So that uncertainty is what's driving the markets the wrong direction. They hate investors hate uncertainty.
00:07:48
Speaker 3: And that's what we have right now. Next up on the run.
00:07:50
Speaker 1: Today was supposed to be payday for TSA workers. Instead now it is wow day twenty seven of the partial government shut down. In today, TSA workers r yes, missing their first full paycheck.
00:08:04
Speaker 2: And still no way out of this myth. There's no off ramp that has emerged. The Senate voted again yesterday on a funding package that would reopen the government, but it failed. It fails for the fourth time. You remember that during the shut down, the historic one, they just kept voting on the same bill over and over and over and over and over and down. We're kind of in that loop again. So again a reminder here, Democrats have refused to back funding for the Department of Homeland Security unless they get some new updates, something new. They won't reforms for ICE and so DHS. Yes, TSA FEMA Coast Guard all fall under DHS.
00:08:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, more to come on that one.
00:08:44
Speaker 2: Well, we'll continue on the run here now. And FBI agents are getting some specialized training this weekend.
00:08:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, you could call it that.
00:08:51
Speaker 1: This is a bit of a head scratcher in its first of its kind collaboration. UFC fighters will be at the FBI Academy in Quantico this weekend to conduct training sessions.
00:09:06
Speaker 2: Yeah. Cash Hotel calls this a tremendous and historic opportunity for agents to learn from the greatest athletes in the world. I don't know what they're teaching necessarily, maybe it's just an exhibition of something about the forming of the relationship. But to consider they're taking any of this seriously, like they're actually training our FBI agents.
00:09:25
Speaker 1: That it seems almost a little offensive of Yeah, and.
00:09:30
Speaker 2: There have been some comments out there from some former FBI guides something along those lines like we have access to every martial arts piece of trade specialist.
00:09:40
Speaker 3: You could imagine.
00:09:41
Speaker 2: We're all right, well, folks, stay with us here on this Friday morning run. When we come back, Netflix makes an announcement that we really did not need them to make. Also, one of the most expensive baseball cards ever sold yesterday and there was a New York Yankee on it, and Robot gets to say the name of her all time favorite NBA player, And then something happened yesterday in college basketball that Robes had no idea was going on. But then at the end her heart was broken. Stay here, we continue now on this Friday morning, Ron and Netflix made it official a K Pop Demon Hunter sequel is in the works. I was on the edge of my seat for this one, to.
00:10:31
Speaker 1: Which we say, dull yeah. The same writer director team will be back for this one. Why change anything. This is supposed to all happen in twenty twenty nine.
00:10:44
Speaker 2: Early some would tell you really might be quick.
00:10:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, I was thinking that was a long time.
00:10:49
Speaker 2: To wait too. You gotta produce another hit album.
00:10:52
Speaker 3: Oh that's true.
00:10:53
Speaker 2: You gotta get a script together. That script has to be put into animated form.
00:10:57
Speaker 3: And the expectations are pretty high.
00:11:00
Speaker 2: Sky. This is a his doic move.
00:11:03
Speaker 3: Dare them movie.
00:11:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, I dare them to come up with a better song than Golden. I could listen to that Honore you paid every day.
00:11:09
Speaker 3: In fact I do. It's in my head constantly.
00:11:11
Speaker 2: We even have remixes. We love that song so much. Continuing now and Aaron Judge baseball card sold for a record amount. What was that amount? We'll tell you right here off the top. Five point two million dollars.
00:11:25
Speaker 1: That is the highest amount ever paid for a modern day baseball card. So what is the big deal about this particular card.
00:11:32
Speaker 2: Well, it's his draft card from twenty thirteen, yes, when he was drafted, but it's officially the twenty thirteen Aaron Judge Bowman Chrome draft one of one super fractor autograph is what it's called super fractor. Yes, try to keep up here.
00:11:46
Speaker 3: Super califragilistic xpiyelados.
00:11:48
Speaker 2: It's Friday, folks, just bear with I was gonna say us, just bear with her. Okay, But the card is signed by him his rookie year. He wasn't a huge, huge star when he first came out, and then he became this superstar. One of one. There's not another one on the planet like it is signed by him. Yeah, it's a rare bird.
00:12:07
Speaker 3: Still, Okay. I still don't get it.
00:12:09
Speaker 2: Any other collection coin collection arts.
00:12:11
Speaker 1: I don't get the banana tape to the wall either, So it's okay. It's still art to someone else or important.
00:12:17
Speaker 3: Next up on the run.
00:12:18
Speaker 1: Always worth to mention when somebody passes a Wilt Chamberlain record.
00:12:24
Speaker 3: They TJ wrote this, Yeah.
00:12:26
Speaker 2: Because yesterday you didn't realize everybody, you say, Wilt Chamberlain. The one thing you know about him is that he scored one hundred points in the basketball Ye famous.
00:12:34
Speaker 1: The one thing I know is that he's a basketball player, and he's really really tall, and he was good at what he did.
00:12:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, because he scored one hundred points in the game, only one to ever do it. But yes, somebody passed Wilt Chamberlain on an all time list for decades, he was the only one. He held the record for the most consecutive games with at least twenty points. That is a big, big deal. And somebody passed it yesterday. Who passed it?
00:12:59
Speaker 1: Ropes Shaye Gilgus Alexander Yes, the.
00:13:06
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City Thunder, You're reigning MVP now is alone at the top of the list. He scored thirty five in the game yesterday. But yeah, this is it's not a small thing. It's not a small thing to have that kind of streak. It goes over. That's a year and a half, a season and a half plus to score at least twenty that's incredible.
00:13:24
Speaker 3: So congratulations to him. And I'm just excited.
00:13:26
Speaker 1: I broke my streak of not pronouncing his name correctly and it was you know what, It wasn't even spelled out for me.
00:13:31
Speaker 3: That might be why I got it guilt.
00:13:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you see it, I say SG.
00:13:34
Speaker 1: You just said SGA And that was easier for me than when I see his actual name.
00:13:39
Speaker 2: We're getting somewhere, folks. And finally, or the final leg of the run March Madness is pretty much underway with a lot of conference tournaments and something pretty special happened and hurt at the same time. Yesterday, the only undefeated team and Division one basketball Miami of Ohio. No other team. It's rare to get one that goes through the entire season undefeated. They were thirty one and oh yesterday Roads that keeps saying they were.
00:14:06
Speaker 1: Yes because they lost their opening game of their conference tournament and it was a nail bier to the end.
00:14:12
Speaker 3: It ended up to score eighty seven eighty three. And I'm laughing right now because as I watched the end of this with you yesterday, I thought it was Miami, like Miami. I didn't know it was Miami of Ohio until just this moment, and so I'm laughing at different school again.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: I'm new to the game in terms of like watching it the way you do, or at least watching you watch it.
00:14:37
Speaker 2: But I encourage everyone what happened yesterday is what happens oftentimes. I don't want to. I know a lot of women are basketball fans with a lot of women are annoyed that their guy sits on the couch and march madness and just says, hey, I'm gonna check out for a little while.
00:14:50
Speaker 3: Probably more on the latter end of those two groups.
00:14:52
Speaker 2: But I want to be fair, but yesterday was one of those moments. I'm always trying to get you involved because I say, that's always a storyline that you'll love. You didn't watch a second of that game until I say, hey, check it out. Look at their record. You said, oh, they're thirty one, and oh they said, oh, game's almost over. Oh they're losing. Oh my god. This is great. And you completely got into the storyline even if you didn't.
00:15:14
Speaker 3: Watch the whole I love the last two minutes of almost every game.
00:15:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like that, but there are storylines within. There'll be plenty. I encourage everybody watch Mark. That's all the day.
00:15:24
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, on this Friday the thirteenth, this is your quote of the day.
00:15:30
Speaker 3: It just spoke to me, and here it is.
00:15:33
Speaker 1: The best part of being authentic is that there is no image to maintain. You will delight some and disturb others, and none of it will concern the truth of you being. I love that we're all trying to put on airs and impress people or get people to like us, or some of us are. Maybe you're not in that category, but I would say ninety five percent of the population is in that category, including me.
00:15:59
Speaker 2: We all want want people to like us. We all do, of course, just some put more of an effort forth to getting people to like them.
00:16:07
Speaker 1: And I just think like in this current climate where we're all you know, Instagram, social media, everyone's trying to say, look how great my life is, this is just permission to be messy, because that's what we all actually are.
00:16:20
Speaker 3: And I appreciate that.
00:16:21
Speaker 1: As you get older, you start to realize that's more important than what you put out to the world. It's what you put into yourself, and I love it. The best part of being authentic is that there is no image to maintain. You will delight some and disturb others, and none of it will concern the truth of you being so everybody, you be you this weekend, and with that, thank you for listening to us.
00:16:47
Speaker 3: I'm Amy Robot.
00:16:48
Speaker 2: If you say this weekend, they go back to being somebody else. That's what I heard.
00:16:53
Speaker 1: I know.
00:16:54
Speaker 3: Okay, you be you from this day forward.
00:16:58
Speaker 2: Damn it.
00:17:00
Speaker 1: D J.
00:17:00
Speaker 2: Holmes. At least for the weekend, y'all have a good one. Mm hmmm, mm hmm.

00:01:06
Speaker 1: So three is the most you can have, and we have three this year, and we just had one last month.
00:01:12
Speaker 2: So people worry about it. The origins are a little sketchy and people don't exactly know why, but yes, it's the real thing. Obviously pop culture with the booties and what not. But it makes me want to why some Friday or thirteen.
00:01:26

Speaker 1: Today was supposed to be payday for TSA workers. Instead now it is wow day twenty seven of the partial government shut down. In today, TSA workers r yes, missing their first full paycheck.
00:08:04
Speaker 2: And still no way out of this myth. There's no off ramp that has emerged. The Senate voted again yesterday on a funding package that would reopen the government, but it failed. It fails for the fourth time. You remember that during the shut down, the historic one, they just kept voting on the same bill over and over and over and over and over and down. We're kind of in that loop again. So again a reminder here, Democrats have refused to back funding for the Department of Homeland Security unless they get some new updates, something new. They won't reforms for ICE and so DHS. Yes, TSA FEMA Coast Guard all fall under DHS.
00:08:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, more to come on that one.
00:08:44
Speaker 2: Well, we'll continue on the run here now. And FBI agents are getting some specialized training this weekend.
00:08:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, you could call it that.
00:08:51
Speaker 1: This is a bit of a head scratcher in its first of its kind collaboration. UFC fighters will be at the FBI Academy in Quantico this weekend to conduct training sessions.
00:09:06
Speaker 2: Yeah. Cash Hotel calls this a tremendous and historic opportunity for agents to learn from the greatest athletes in the world. I don't know what they're teaching necessarily, maybe it's just an exhibition of something about the forming of the relationship. But to consider they're taking any of this seriously, like they're actually training our FBI agents.
00:09:25
Speaker 1: That it seems almost a little offensive of Yeah, and.
00:09:30
Speaker 2: There have been some comments out there from some former FBI guides something along those lines like we have access to every martial arts piece of trade specialist.
00:09:40
Speaker 3: You could imagine.
00:09:41
Speaker 2: We're all right, well, folks, stay with us here on this Friday morning run. When we come back, Netflix makes an announcement that we really did not need them to make. Also, one of the most expensive baseball cards ever sold yesterday and there was a New York Yankee on it, and Robot gets to say the name of her all time favorite NBA player, And then something happened yesterday in college basketball that Robes had no idea was going on. But then at the end her heart was broken. Stay here, we continue now on this Friday morning, Ron and Netflix made it official a K Pop Demon Hunter sequel is in the works. I was on the edge of my seat for this one, to.
00:10:31
Speaker 1: Which we say, dull yeah. The same writer director team will be back for this one. Why change anything. This is supposed to all happen in twenty twenty nine.
00:10:44
Speaker 2: Early some would tell you really might be quick.
00:10:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, I was thinking that was a long time.
00:10:49
Speaker 2: To wait too. You gotta produce another hit album.
00:10:52
Speaker 3: Oh that's true.
00:10:53
Speaker 2: You gotta get a script together. That script has to be put into animated form.
00:10:57
Speaker 3: And the expectations are pretty high.
00:11:00
Speaker 2: Sky. This is a his doic move.
00:11:03
Speaker 3: Dare them movie.
00:11:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, I dare them to come up with a better song than Golden. I could listen to that Honore you paid every day.
00:11:09
Speaker 3: In fact I do. It's in my head constantly.
00:11:11
Speaker 2: We even have remixes. We love that song so much. Continuing now and Aaron Judge baseball card sold for a record amount. What was that amount? We'll tell you right here off the top. Five point two million dollars.
00:11:25
Speaker 1: That is the highest amount ever paid for a modern day baseball card. So what is the big deal about this particular card.
00:11:32
Speaker 2: Well, it's his draft card from twenty thirteen, yes, when he was drafted, but it's officially the twenty thirteen Aaron Judge Bowman Chrome draft one of one super fractor autograph is what it's called super fractor. Yes, try to keep up here.
00:11:46
Speaker 3: Super califragilistic xpiyelados.
00:11:48
Speaker 2: It's Friday, folks, just bear with I was gonna say us, just bear with her. Okay, But the card is signed by him his rookie year. He wasn't a huge, huge star when he first came out, and then he became this superstar. One of one. There's not another one on the planet like it is signed by him. Yeah, it's a rare bird.
00:12:07
Speaker 3: Still, Okay. I still don't get it.
00:12:09
Speaker 2: Any other collection coin collection arts.
00:12:11
Speaker 1: I don't get the banana tape to the wall either, So it's okay. It's still art to someone else or important.
00:12:17
Speaker 3: Next up on the run.
00:12:18
Speaker 1: Always worth to mention when somebody passes a Wilt Chamberlain record.
00:12:24
Speaker 3: They TJ wrote this, Yeah.
00:12:26
Speaker 2: Because yesterday you didn't realize everybody, you say, Wilt Chamberlain. The one thing you know about him is that he scored one hundred points in the basketball Ye famous.
00:12:34
Speaker 1: The one thing I know is that he's a basketball player, and he's really really tall, and he was good at what he did.
00:12:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, because he scored one hundred points in the game, only one to ever do it. But yes, somebody passed Wilt Chamberlain on an all time list for decades, he was the only one. He held the record for the most consecutive games with at least twenty points. That is a big, big deal. And somebody passed it yesterday. Who passed it?
00:12:59
Speaker 1: Ropes Shaye Gilgus Alexander Yes, the.
00:13:06
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City Thunder, You're reigning MVP now is alone at the top of the list. He scored thirty five in the game yesterday. But yeah, this is it's not a small thing. It's not a small thing to have that kind of streak. It goes over. That's a year and a half, a season and a half plus to score at least twenty that's incredible.
00:13:24
Speaker 3: So congratulations to him. And I'm just excited.
00:13:26
Speaker 1: I broke my streak of not pronouncing his name correctly and it was you know what, It wasn't even spelled out for me.
00:13:31
Speaker 3: That might be why I got it guilt.
00:13:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you see it, I say SG.
00:13:34
Speaker 1: You just said SGA And that was easier for me than when I see his actual name.
00:13:39
Speaker 2: We're getting somewhere, folks. And finally, or the final leg of the run March Madness is pretty much underway with a lot of conference tournaments and something pretty special happened and hurt at the same time. Yesterday, the only undefeated team and Division one basketball Miami of Ohio. No other team. It's rare to get one that goes through the entire season undefeated. They were thirty one and oh yesterday Roads that keeps saying they were.
00:14:06
Speaker 1: Yes because they lost their opening game of their conference tournament and it was a nail bier to the end.
00:14:12
Speaker 3: It ended up to score eighty seven eighty three. And I'm laughing right now because as I watched the end of this with you yesterday, I thought it was Miami, like Miami. I didn't know it was Miami of Ohio until just this moment, and so I'm laughing at different school again.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: I'm new to the game in terms of like watching it the way you do, or at least watching you watch it.
00:14:37
Speaker 2: But I encourage everyone what happened yesterday is what happens oftentimes. I don't want to. I know a lot of women are basketball fans with a lot of women are annoyed that their guy sits on the couch and march madness and just says, hey, I'm gonna check out for a little while.
00:14:50
Speaker 3: Probably more on the latter end of those two groups.
00:14:52
Speaker 2: But I want to be fair, but yesterday was one of those moments. I'm always trying to get you involved because I say, that's always a storyline that you'll love. You didn't watch a second of that game until I say, hey, check it out. Look at their record. You said, oh, they're thirty one, and oh they said, oh, game's almost over. Oh they're losing. Oh my god. This is great. And you completely got into the storyline even if you didn't.
00:15:14
Speaker 3: Watch the whole I love the last two minutes of almost every game.
00:15:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like that, but there are storylines within. There'll be plenty. I encourage everybody watch Mark. That's all the day.
00:15:24
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, on this Friday the thirteenth, this is your quote of the day.
00:15:30
Speaker 3: It just spoke to me, and here it is.
00:15:33
Speaker 1: The best part of being authentic is that there is no image to maintain. You will delight some and disturb others, and none of it will concern the truth of you being. I love that we're all trying to put on airs and impress people or get people to like us, or some of us are. Maybe you're not in that category, but I would say ninety five percent of the population is in that category, including me.
00:15:59
Speaker 2: We all want want people to like us. We all do, of course, just some put more of an effort forth to getting people to like them.
00:16:07
Speaker 1: And I just think like in this current climate where we're all you know, Instagram, social media, everyone's trying to say, look how great my life is, this is just permission to be messy, because that's what we all actually are.
00:16:20
Speaker 3: And I appreciate that.
00:16:21
Speaker 1: As you get older, you start to realize that's more important than what you put out to the world. It's what you put into yourself, and I love it. The best part of being authentic is that there is no image to maintain. You will delight some and disturb others, and none of it will concern the truth of you being so everybody, you be you this weekend, and with that, thank you for listening to us.
00:16:47
Speaker 3: I'm Amy Robot.
00:16:48
Speaker 2: If you say this weekend, they go back to being somebody else. That's what I heard.
00:16:53
Speaker 1: I know.
00:16:54
Speaker 3: Okay, you be you from this day forward.
00:16:58
Speaker 2: Damn it.
00:17:00
Speaker 1: D J.
00:17:00
Speaker 2: Holmes. At least for the weekend, y'all have a good one. Mm hmmm, mm hmm.
