Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Hey there, everybody, and welcome to your morning run. It is Thursday or Friday Eve, August thirteenth, My dad's birthday. Happy birthday, Dad. I'm Amy Rovot Hey there, and I'm TJ.
00:00:18
Speaker 2: Holmes. Happy birthday. Sent cigars, some steaks. I said nothing, It's okay.
00:00:26
Speaker 3: I sent a present on behalf of both of them.
00:00:28
Speaker 2: Okay. I love that stuff. That's one of the best things about being in a relationship as a guy. You don't have to do some shopping and you get credit for the gifts exactly. But hey, good morning to you all wherever you may be. Hope you're getting off to a good start on this August thirteenth, which is a kind of a bizarre day in America. There are actually three executions schedule for today in three different states. We'll be talking about that this morning, but we will be making stops in Hopkins, Minnesota, will make a stop in Massachusetts, in Columbia and Illinois, LA make a stop in the White House briefing room, as well as Central Texas, as well as in Georgia. But we'll start here Robes. If folks didn't get the word yesterday there is going to be a change in really the most public face of the administration outside of Trump.
00:01:15
Speaker 3: Maybe absolutely.
00:01:17
Speaker 1: We got word late yesterday that White House Press Secretary Carolyn Lovett is stepping down just a few weeks after coming back from maternity leave. She made her announcement just after Trump made the big announcement on.
00:01:32
Speaker 2: Social media, and she put out a long statement, but this was really the key paragraph in there. She said, quote being a mother and welcoming a new baby while working in one of the most demanding jobs in the world has been the most rewarding yet challenging seasons of my life. To say the leaf, the truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve. That's I mean, a lot of women heard that say I feel you.
00:02:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, it resonated. And look, as I said, and we did a whole episode on this yesterday. If she financially can do that, and that's what's in her heart, that's amazing. She has that opportunity and that ability. And look, she was the youngest Press secretary ever and she lasted the longest out of any of the press secretaries for President Trump for looking back at his first term, of.
00:02:24
Speaker 2: Course, and it's barely been a year and a half.
00:02:27
Speaker 1: He went through four and four years, I believe his first term. So yes, she almost doubled what the longest one before her did.
00:02:36
Speaker 2: He She has I say has too. She's making that choice. But like we were talking about, women have to make that choice. It's just such a great job for a woman that young. Just to think she's being pulled away from it.
00:02:50
Speaker 1: I love that you're looking at it from a like you're looking at it as a father to her daughter. I could see a father feeling that way about his daughter, wanting her to be able to have all the opportunity to have it all. But it's very difficult when you're a woman. Yes, and it's effective by the way. She leaves at the end of.
00:03:06
Speaker 2: This month, continuing on the run here now on this Friday, even going to head to Columbia, where rescuers there continue to pull victims from the rubble of Monday's powerful earthquake. The death toll has now risen to two hundred and sixty five. There are a lot of estimates out there ropes about how many people are still missing. They range from five hundred to four thousand, but they are still looking and robes there are, and there are plenty of success stories and some you can't even believe. We saw the video yesterday the baby.
00:03:37
Speaker 1: If you were watching the news, if you were on your computer at all yesterday, you saw the miracle that they were able to pull out of the rubble. It was it looked like a day's old baby, age so tight, covered.
00:03:49
Speaker 3: In dusts covered in dust, but still alive.
00:03:52
Speaker 1: And look, that is what these rescuers are holding out for that they find that one person, that one baby.
00:04:00
Speaker 3: But there's still folks who are being rescued as we record this, all right. Next up on the.
00:04:05
Speaker 1: Run, two soldiers were killed in a helicopter crash in Texas. The Apache helicopter, which was based at Fort Hood, crashed into a field yesterday afternoon. This was about fifty miles north of austin a town near called Salado.
00:04:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, they said this actually it crashed in the feeling it was away from many structures or anything, but they said it's set off a fire, a wildfire that was out of control for a little while. Two soldiers that were the only ones that were on board. The cause of this crash is under investigation now, all right.
00:04:37
Speaker 1: Next up on the run, A fourteen year old is in custody after a shooting at a high school in Georgia. But police say this was not a case of a student with an intent to shoot up his school, but this was actually the result of an altercation in the bath throa.
00:04:53
Speaker 2: This is where we are. We're relieved that it was just an altercation and only one kid would shot and not kill. It's a relief. Did you hear when you hear school shooting here? Yeah, goes one direction. But this was in Warner Robbins at Georgia. This is in central Georgia and near making. Police say it was two ninth graders who were arguing in a bathroom when one pulled out a gun and shot the other.
00:05:19
Speaker 3: That's insane.
00:05:20
Speaker 2: Ninth graders get into a fight and one pulls out a gun like this is the wild West and he's a grown man. But yet, no word on the condition of the victim here. But the suspect did flee and was caught a short time later.
00:05:33
Speaker 3: All right, Next up on the run.
00:05:34
Speaker 1: We cannot believe this headline and that we're talking about this once again.
00:05:39
Speaker 3: But a man is.
00:05:40
Speaker 1: Believed to have killed his wife and their seven year old daughter before then taking his own life. And this time police say it all happened at a daycare while other children were nearby.
00:05:54
Speaker 2: What is going on, Rovees. This was in Hopkins, Minnesota. It's about twelve miles southwest of Minneapolis. But police say the forty one year old suspect, who at this recording, they have not identified, but they said the suspect stabbed his wife and daughter at the daycare and then took his own life. It was a self inflicted gunshot wound and Robes. The reason police showed up to the scene is because another parent who was dropping off his child at the daycare saw this going on and it was serious enough that he called police. And this is what ends up happening. And the scariest part this is a daycare. Robes kids were there.
00:06:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, six other kids were at the daycare at the time of this incident. This is chilling because yesterday on our Feet, if you want to look it up, we did an entire podcast episode on the rising seemingly like once a month. Now we're actually getting more than that of men killing their families and then themselves.
00:06:50
Speaker 3: What the hell is going on? And it's just remarkable and awful to wake up to. Yet unis I.
00:06:56
Speaker 2: Can't believe it. Familicide, right, familicide taking out their family. Sorry, continuing here on the run. Another emotional day in the Lindsey Clancy triple murder trial. Massachusetts mom who says she strangled her three children because she was suffering from postpartum psychosis. She was once again rob These have been emotional days. I don't know how we keep getting more emotional and more emotional. But it was so tough in the court that the judge had to stop things on several occations.
00:07:26
Speaker 3: That's right.
00:07:26
Speaker 1: She was sobbing with her head on the table uncontrollably audibly in court as two medical examiners went over the autopsies of her five year old and her three year old. The judge yes called two recesses an interrupted testimony, then had to remind jurors once again that their verdict must be based on the evidence and cannot be based on sympathy, anger, passion, or prejudice. Jurors also heard from three law enforcement officers and another mental health professional and testimony resumes today. They expected to once again be a full day of testomers to the prosecution still going strong with witnesses.
00:08:04
Speaker 2: All right, next leg of our run, there's going to be a three state leg of our run, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Alabama. There are three execution schedule to take place today in the US, the first time that three will have taken place since twenty ten. Two of them robes are this morning in Tennessee and Oklahoma, and the other is scheduled for tonight in Alabama.
00:08:28
Speaker 1: That's right, at eleven am Eastern time, Tennessee will execute Anthony Darryl Hines by lethal injection for the nineteen eighty five murder of a motel made and then at the same time in Oklahoma, Carlos Questa Rodriguez will be getting a lethal injection for the two thousand and three shooting death of his girlfriend.
00:08:45
Speaker 2: And then at six o'clock tonight, Jeremy Williams will also be given a lethal injection for the twenty twenty one rape and murder of a five year old girl. Yes you heard that right, twenty twenty one. He was only convicted in twenty twenty four. Conviction to execution day in two years is essentially unheard of, and we have him to think for that Ropes.
00:09:09
Speaker 1: Yes, he cleared the way said do not appeal this decision. There was one automatic appeal he was granted and then he gave up basically all of his rights to continue to appeal, and he literally got moved up to the front of the line.
00:09:25
Speaker 3: And today is his day.
00:09:27
Speaker 1: These will be the twentieth, twenty first, and twenty second executions of the year. If you're interested at all, take a look back on our feed the last three episodes.
00:09:36
Speaker 3: We actually go through each.
00:09:38
Speaker 1: Of these men, their murders and maybe even more importantly, the victims, the folks who were killed and the people who loved them who were left behind, who have been waiting for this day, in one case for forty years.
00:09:51
Speaker 2: And listener warning on the Alabama execution, it's one of the most horrifical crimes you've you have ever heard of it. It's really difficult the stomach. But just the heads up on that one. But continuing on the run, here now a newly unsealed indictment alleges that Nick Reiner was lying in wait to murder his parents, Rob and Michelle Reiner. And rogues. That distinction is very important.
00:10:18
Speaker 1: That's right, because yes, now that gives the prosecutors a couple of options. The grand jury returned that indictment last month, but the public is just now getting a look at it.
00:10:28
Speaker 3: It was just unsealed.
00:10:30
Speaker 1: And yes, Nick Reiner was arrested soon after his parents were found stabbed to death at their Brentwood home in December.
00:10:35
Speaker 3: TJ referring to lying in wait.
00:10:37
Speaker 1: Yes, that charge means Reiner could be eligible now for the death penalty. That gives prosecutors that option, but they have not announced what their decision is yet. Nick Reiner has pleaded not guilty.
00:10:49
Speaker 2: All right, folks, will stay with us on this Friday Eve Ron when we come back. Yes, somebody won the one billion dollar powerball jackpot last night, and that is barely enough money to buy the Los Angeles Lakers, which were just sold for a record amount.
00:11:17
Speaker 3: Welcome back every one to your Friday Eve morning run.
00:11:21
Speaker 1: And next up, Jared Kushner's little brother and the former Disney CEO just bought the Los Angeles Lakers. The storied NBA franchise was purchased for twelve point five billion dollars by Bob Iger and Josh Kushner, the youngest brother of the president's son in law.
00:11:43
Speaker 2: This is the most expensive, most expensive sports team ever purchase ava the Los Angeles Lakers. Wow, twelve point five billion in there. It just seems like the rich keep getting richer. It's the same name, same family, same everything. They got Disney involved, you got the president's family by extension involved here, and.
00:12:06
Speaker 1: You know, just to that's just like a little fun hobby, like a side project. You just sort of throw twelve billion that way.
00:12:13
Speaker 2: And Lebron just left, So they're gonna be a new look Lakers. They can reshape the team. Who knows, but hey, Lakers are going to be fine.
00:12:20
Speaker 3: All right.
00:12:20
Speaker 1: Someone else is going to be really, really, really really fine. When they realized that they won the billion dollar powerball jackpot last night, a single ticket was sold in Illinois.
00:12:35
Speaker 2: And they already know ropes. I'm not used to. I don't think they usually give this that quickly, but already they're telling this was a gas station in Quincy, Illinois, and somebody got a one point zero four billion dollar ticket four hundred and fifty point five million if you take the cash option, which you absolutely should. I did the math earlier given their state tax there four point nine five percent, but I lost.
00:12:58
Speaker 3: Minhll it is point Oh my god, what's that like?
00:13:02
Speaker 2: That's what we have that in the city almost city.
00:13:05
Speaker 1: Text that we've got like twelve points something percent in New York state? Wait, what why don't we live in Illinois or any other state other than California.
00:13:14
Speaker 2: Well we can explain that we centered the universe. Isn't that what we say here?
00:13:18
Speaker 3: We paid dearly for it.
00:13:20
Speaker 1: Congratulations to that lucky, lucky person who just swung by, got some gas and thought why not, got to be in it to win it.
00:13:29
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
00:13:30
Speaker 1: I love it for them, all right. Our quote of the day. This one jumped out of me. Thought it was fun. Anyone in a relationship, I think this is a cool way to look at things.
00:13:39
Speaker 2: I'm listening.
00:13:40
Speaker 3: A relationship's job isn't to make us happy.
00:13:44
Speaker 2: No, no, no, it's.
00:13:45
Speaker 1: Our job to bring happiness into the relationship.
00:13:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, doesn't everyone see it that way.
00:13:51
Speaker 1: I think most people expect the partner or the relationship to make them happy.
00:13:55
Speaker 3: That they're looking for.
00:13:56
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the relationship to make them happy. That's a new partner needs to make me feel like that's you. Okay, No, if you look at it the other way around, it's actually the way it's.
00:14:06
Speaker 3: Supposed to be.
00:14:06
Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna look at it, but right, don't don't. A lot of people, oftentimes even now, get married to increase their status at work. It makes them look more stable, even that kind of a thing. What can this relationship bring to me? Yes, some would argue that's there's nothing wrong with that.
00:14:22
Speaker 1: You're going to be disappointed. That's the point, and you're missing the point. Yes, look, I do think people look to look.
00:14:30
Speaker 3: We love watching these relationship shows.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: We're watching Marritive f Sight again and people say I want to be married because I want to be happy, like they don't.
00:14:40
Speaker 3: It's the opposite.
00:14:41
Speaker 1: You bring the happiness to your partner, to the marriage, and that's what makes it great. And that's how if you think about it in those terms, it will change your life and your relationship. So a relationship job, I can't talk a relationship.
00:14:56
Speaker 2: Relationship, I don't know what. Now we're getting on track.
00:15:03
Speaker 1: Yes, a relationship's job isn't to make us happy. It is our job to bring happiness into the relationship. That's empowering and beautiful and without everyone.
00:15:13
Speaker 3: We hope you have a wonderful Thursday.
00:15:15
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. Run Soon.

00:02:36
Speaker 2: He She has I say has too. She's making that choice. But like we were talking about, women have to make that choice. It's just such a great job for a woman that young. Just to think she's being pulled away from it.
00:02:50
Speaker 1: I love that you're looking at it from a like you're looking at it as a father to her daughter. I could see a father feeling that way about his daughter, wanting her to be able to have all the opportunity to have it all. But it's very difficult when you're a woman. Yes, and it's effective by the way. She leaves at the end of.

00:11:43
Speaker 2: This is the most expensive, most expensive sports team ever purchase ava the Los Angeles Lakers. Wow, twelve point five billion in there. It just seems like the rich keep getting richer. It's the same name, same family, same everything. They got Disney involved, you got the president's family by extension involved here, and.
00:12:06
Speaker 1: You know, just to that's just like a little fun hobby, like a side project. You just sort of throw twelve billion that way.
00:12:13
Speaker 2: And Lebron just left, So they're gonna be a new look Lakers. They can reshape the team. Who knows, but hey, Lakers are going to be fine.
00:12:20
Speaker 3: All right.
00:12:20
Speaker 1: Someone else is going to be really, really, really really fine. When they realized that they won the billion dollar powerball jackpot last night, a single ticket was sold in Illinois.
00:12:35
Speaker 2: And they already know ropes. I'm not used to. I don't think they usually give this that quickly, but already they're telling this was a gas station in Quincy, Illinois, and somebody got a one point zero four billion dollar ticket four hundred and fifty point five million if you take the cash option, which you absolutely should. I did the math earlier given their state tax there four point nine five percent, but I lost.
00:12:58
Speaker 3: Minhll it is point Oh my god, what's that like?
00:13:02
Speaker 2: That's what we have that in the city almost city.
00:13:05
Speaker 1: Text that we've got like twelve points something percent in New York state? Wait, what why don't we live in Illinois or any other state other than California.
00:13:14
Speaker 2: Well we can explain that we centered the universe. Isn't that what we say here?
00:13:18
Speaker 3: We paid dearly for it.
00:13:20
Speaker 1: Congratulations to that lucky, lucky person who just swung by, got some gas and thought why not, got to be in it to win it.
00:13:29
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
00:13:30
Speaker 1: I love it for them, all right. Our quote of the day. This one jumped out of me. Thought it was fun. Anyone in a relationship, I think this is a cool way to look at things.
00:13:39
Speaker 2: I'm listening.
00:13:40
Speaker 3: A relationship's job isn't to make us happy.
00:13:44
Speaker 2: No, no, no, it's.
00:13:45
Speaker 1: Our job to bring happiness into the relationship.
00:13:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, doesn't everyone see it that way.
00:13:51
Speaker 1: I think most people expect the partner or the relationship to make them happy.
00:13:55
Speaker 3: That they're looking for.
00:13:56
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the relationship to make them happy. That's a new partner needs to make me feel like that's you. Okay, No, if you look at it the other way around, it's actually the way it's.
00:14:06
Speaker 3: Supposed to be.
00:14:06
Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna look at it, but right, don't don't. A lot of people, oftentimes even now, get married to increase their status at work. It makes them look more stable, even that kind of a thing. What can this relationship bring to me? Yes, some would argue that's there's nothing wrong with that.
00:14:22
Speaker 1: You're going to be disappointed. That's the point, and you're missing the point. Yes, look, I do think people look to look.
00:14:30
Speaker 3: We love watching these relationship shows.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: We're watching Marritive f Sight again and people say I want to be married because I want to be happy, like they don't.
00:14:40
Speaker 3: It's the opposite.
00:14:41
Speaker 1: You bring the happiness to your partner, to the marriage, and that's what makes it great. And that's how if you think about it in those terms, it will change your life and your relationship. So a relationship job, I can't talk a relationship.
00:14:56
Speaker 2: Relationship, I don't know what. Now we're getting on track.
00:15:03
Speaker 1: Yes, a relationship's job isn't to make us happy. It is our job to bring happiness into the relationship. That's empowering and beautiful and without everyone.
00:15:13
Speaker 3: We hope you have a wonderful Thursday.
00:15:15
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robots and I'm TJ Holmes. Run Soon.
