Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast.
00:00:05
Speaker 2: Good morning everyone, it is Tuesday, June ninth.
00:00:09
Speaker 1: I'm Amy Robot, then I'm TJ Holmes, and for the first time in a while, we don't have a Love Island update off the top because we ain't seen the episode from last night. We were preoccupied.
00:00:18
Speaker 2: You know, I got a well, we both got a text from my oldest daughter yesterday. She hadn't seen the latest episode, and we kind of broke the news to her, who went home. She said she was gonna have to suspend listening to the morning run up. We were going to start giving out.
00:00:33
Speaker 1: Oh I didn't play that. I didn't put that together. I'm saying we didn't watch last night. The reason we did it is because that was a next game. We were preoccupied. Everybody here in New York was preoccupied. This was all it was about yesterday was this. It was not about Love Island last night. Sorry, not even at halftime. We had to focus and the focus still didn't work. What a night here in New York. Yes, it all went down. We're certainly gonna be starting with that. Yes, and we call ourselves the center of the universe here in New York. But it really did feel like all eyes were on the city and in particular one arena last night. So it was cool.
00:01:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, Madison Square Garden really was the center of the universe last night. I have to say, Look, we watched from our apartment, we had some folks around, but it really did feel electric.
00:01:16
Speaker 3: It was fun.
00:01:17
Speaker 2: The whole city was excited, and just looking at New York from the aerials, it was so beautiful. You didn't see any of the ugliness down on the streets. And look, it didn't have the outcome we wanted, but it was an exciting game.
00:01:28
Speaker 1: All right. We're going to get into all of that, including the boo birds at Madison Square Garden for President Trump. But we're gonna be making several stops this morning in the Bahamas, in Los Angeles, gonna be making a stop at the Straight Up Horn Moves, also in McKinney, Texas. We'll make a stop in London and Alabama. But of course let's start with last night's first stop is at the Garden, and maybe not maybe, definitely not the outcome robes we wanted.
00:01:55
Speaker 2: Yes, the much anticipated Game three of the NBA Finals was ultimately a big old let down for US New Yorkers. The Knicks lost to the San Antonio Spurs one fifteen to one eleven in front of a raucous and star studded crowd, Yes in Madison Square Garden.
00:02:12
Speaker 1: The night delivered, the game delivered. It was a wonderful game for everybody but Knicks fans. Right, if you're just a casual observer, this was a wonderful basketball game and environment to even experience, even if you were in your living room. But yes, the big guy wimby the French. The Frenchman Victor Rembayama had thirty two points and he did Rose. He didn't have the greatest game, had a big mistake in Game two at the end there, and he came out from the very beginning and you could tell this dude was ready to make up for that mistake. This was a fun, fun game to watch from beginning to end. None of us as late as it was and long a day as it was. And then we still got Sabine back there sleeping because she would normally be up by now, but she was up late on a school night. I mean, Rose, this was everything yesterday. Yes, disappoint but it ain't over.
00:03:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, it ain't over, and we still have Wednesday. That's gonna be fun. Game four is on Wednesday. Just the street parties. It was a beautiful weather day in New York, so folks are gonna be ready to party and celebrate on Wednesday.
00:03:12
Speaker 3: Excited about all of that. And one of the most.
00:03:14
Speaker 2: Highly anticipated moments of the night the crowd reaction to seeing President Trump on the JumboTron.
00:03:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it didn't disappoint. Look, this is just what happened sometimes at these events. But this was robes. Everybody waited to see one. How if they were going to show them on the big screen, and for how long? How many times? But how this Madison Square Garden crowd which had to wait hours in security lines because of this dude who also is the guy they might not agree with politically so much. They had some stuff pent up, and you throw in the twenty seven years of frustration with the Knicks robes. That was a lot pent up, was it not. Yeah?
00:03:56
Speaker 2: It was loud, yes, and uson Square Garden you could hear it coming through the TV, and everyone who is at watch parties also described maybe even a louder boo that was going on in the streets of Manhattan and Brooklyn where they had massive watch parties going on.
00:04:13
Speaker 1: All right, so we're gonna give you an idea of how it went. Now, the singer, I don't have his name right now, but he was crushing.
00:04:19
Speaker 3: A guy who did the national anthem. You know what he is.
00:04:21
Speaker 2: He's on Broadway. Hes A is the Antony Award winning Broadway star. He plays this scarecrow.
00:04:26
Speaker 1: Okay, oh yeah, yeah. They did say that he was good enough that you want to look him up. He was that good of a singer singer. But anyway, he's going through his thing. People are enjoying it. They're cheering at some moments because they see the flag or something that they show on the big screen. So you hear some of that at the beginning of the sound I'm about to play you. And then it is unmistakable when they show the president on the jumbo tron. Take a listen to this, and then those singing continues, so you get tell when his face came off the jumbo trump because it got quiet again and the guy kept singing. Now, the president was doing a salute at the time this was going on. What did you think of the moment?
00:05:18
Speaker 2: Uh? Look, I thought it was fun. You know, it didn't seem too mean. It seemed excited. And even Trump himself said, I think mostly cheers. It was loud and it was very enthusiastic.
00:05:29
Speaker 1: The exact answer you expect him to get. Did you hear the boo birds? Yeah, that is what he said. Now, Robes another moment that has been talked about a lot from last night, because he's been talked about a lot in recent weeks. Robes, I don't know. Was he asleep or not? Yes, Okay, it appeared to be.
00:05:48
Speaker 2: Come on, he's seventy nine years old, it was late at night. Yeah, he was sleeping.
00:05:54
Speaker 1: Robes In. The most bored looking person I saw in all of in New York yesterday was President Trump at the game. He was sitting next to dole In, the owner of the team. They were sitting there, not talking each other for long stretches. Didn't seem to be into the game. Seemed to be bored.
00:06:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was not a boring game, if not, any moment at any point that game was riveting. And you know me, I always fall asleep, especially when I get up early.
00:06:20
Speaker 3: Right, I was wired, which.
00:06:23
Speaker 1: Oh my Christ. Before halftime, Robes looked at me on the couch and said, you know what, I don't think I'm gonna make it to the end.
00:06:30
Speaker 2: And I did every second, didn't miss a moment.
00:06:33
Speaker 1: It was a great game, so of course, so much interest of what's going on on the court, the actual game, but also on the court who had their feet on the court as well. A bunch of celebrities who was sitting in some of the best and most expensive seats you will ever find. But this was the usual cast of characters for the most part. No surprises here. These are some regulars here.
00:06:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan, Chris Rock. I actually was fun seeing him there, Ben Stiller, John McEnroe, Jay Z, Derek Jeter, Eli Manning, Timothy's Shallow May dj Khaled Pact was.
00:07:03
Speaker 1: Dressed the business last night with that yellow shirt.
00:07:05
Speaker 2: Nice hard to miss Marishka Hargate and Larry David.
00:07:12
Speaker 3: That was fun to see that crowd.
00:07:14
Speaker 1: A lot of the usuals ending it ropes on the most part. Yes, there, it was annoying what happened outside. You heard people reporting about it even so, yes, some of the reporters even talk about what they went through getting in. It was inconvenient. It was annoying. People got over.
00:07:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were there.
00:07:28
Speaker 2: And New Yorkers, as we mentioned, especially NYPD, they know how to get people in and out of buildings and big arenas and Times Square safely, so that all went off without a hitch last night. But next up on the Run, we're gonna head overseas to a US helicopter that went down near the street of Poor Moves. And according to President Trump, the pilots were rescued and they are fine.
00:07:53
Speaker 1: We don't have all the details surrounding the crash, but the President confirmed last night that the pilots are fine, nobody was injured. He said we should expect information about it from the White House today. This was interesting, Robes. He was giving these comments as he was getting on the plane leaving the NBA Finals game. And oh yeah, there's a war going on.
00:08:10
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that too, all right.
00:08:12
Speaker 2: Next up on the Run, one week after election day. Wow, it's been one week now. Finally second place has been settled in the race for La mayor.
00:08:22
Speaker 3: Nathia Rahman.
00:08:23
Speaker 2: Is that how you say her name?
00:08:24
Speaker 3: Nathia? I always say it wrong.
00:08:26
Speaker 1: He put a little more stink on it than it deserves. But it's beautiful either way.
00:08:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was hoping Spencer prets easier to say so anyway, she's not going to be going forward.
00:08:36
Speaker 1: Yes, and she doesn't appreciate the comparison, Yes, she does not.
00:08:39
Speaker 3: She overtook Pratt, who had.
00:08:41
Speaker 2: A substantial lead over her on election day.
00:08:44
Speaker 1: Yes, ram as a city council member, was able to erase that lead as more mail in ballots were being counted robes. He had a significant lead, but he had so much of the Republican of Conservative support in LA, which is minimal. So think once the mail in ballot starting, this is why they didn't call it early. We were all like looking like, wait, why aren't they calling it? Surely he's gonna win this thing, and no, this all made sense. So now Ramen is going to face income at Karen Bass in November. This is one now that the DOJ says they have opened. Are the investigations not monitors, but they say they are looking into some irregularities. They're questioning whether or not it's a legit election in California.
00:09:25
Speaker 3: Yes, so we will wait for more on that.
00:09:27
Speaker 2: But in the meantime, the news search for Lynette Hooker, who disappeared in the Bahamas in April has already ended. This was a renewed coast Guard effort that focused on previously unsearched areas.
00:09:39
Speaker 1: The hooker went overboard, you remember, during a dinghy ride with her husband, Brian. He was briefly detained by police after her disappearance, but was released for lack of evidence, and he has always maintained his innocence. They say, the ropes. This investigation is not over just because this searches.
00:09:53
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but it's disappointing.
00:09:54
Speaker 2: They were certainly hoping they might be able to find her or at least some evidence that had not yet been covered.
00:10:00
Speaker 1: But next up on the run.
00:10:01
Speaker 2: Closing arguments already scheduled for this morning in the murder trial of Carmelo Anthony. That's the Texas teen who stabbed another seventeen year old during a confrontation at a track meet last year.
00:10:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, the defense rested its case yesterday after calling only about five or so witnesses. Carmelo did not testify in his own defense. The jury's expected to get their instructions and begin deliberating after closing arguments today. Big deal, he robes. They are not going home until they get a decision.
00:10:28
Speaker 2: Yes, he The judge has already told the jurors that they are being sequestered until they come up with their decisions. So apparently they're coming to court today with bags in hand, all right. Next up on the run, a federal appeals court has ruled that Alabama's new nitrogen gas execution method could inflict a cruel amount of pain and suffering. This ruling comes after death row inmate Jeffrey Lee, who was set to die by nitrogen gas on Thursday, filed an appeal.
00:10:58
Speaker 1: Now, this is an interesting story because this is somewhat of a win for his side, but this does not mean he's getting a stay of execution. What this ruling now says it sent Lee's case back to a district court where a judge will decide whether Lee can die by firing squad instead of nitrogen. The nitrogen gas essentially saying, Okay, that's a problem, let's just shoot you.
00:11:22
Speaker 2: Yes, well, and he asked for that to be the alternative, And of course he wanted to stay of execution.
00:11:28
Speaker 3: That was his first goal.
00:11:29
Speaker 2: But the second thing was, Okay, if you can't give me that, can you at least let me die by firing squad instead of nitrogen gas. We have to wait for word on that, but that decision has to come soon because yet, yes, he is set to die on Thursday. But it's really interesting. In fact, I was going to suggest we do an episode on this on what the court decided and determined about what nitrogen gas does to inmates. But Alabama has already executed six inmates this way since it started this process in twenty twenty four.
00:11:57
Speaker 3: Louisiana has used it once. But a lot of folks are.
00:12:01
Speaker 2: Raising their hands saying, we should not be killing inmates like this. It is absolutely cruel and unusual.
00:12:07
Speaker 1: All right toah, we'll stay with us here, folks on this Tuesday morning run. When we come back, she is back officially. Yes, today is the day, folks, we are going to see Serena Williams on a tennis court once again. And also coming up, well, if you're going to be a thief, why not still something worth a lot of money that can also give you a buzz. We'll tell you about the Bourbon thieves coming up. Stare, welcome back to this episode of Amy and DJ on. There's a morning ron we continue, herobes, come on, we're finally here, waiting almost four years for this day that we weren't even sure was gonna come. But Serena Williams is going to be back on a tennis court today.
00:12:54
Speaker 3: Yes, this is very exciting.
00:12:55
Speaker 2: She's going to make her highly anticipated return to tennis this evening doubles match at the HSBC Championships at the Queen's Club in London. She already has another tournament on her calendar later this month in Germany that's also a doubles, but she's playing Victoria. She's playing with Victoria Moboco. She's nineteen years old, so forty eight, So Serena's forty four and she's nineteen.
00:13:20
Speaker 3: That is going to be fun to watch.
00:13:21
Speaker 2: And if it's in London, I guess it's this afternoon for us here in the States.
00:13:25
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, it's early eves. It's five thirty there. Okay, it's five thirty there, early evening in London, so it'll be oh afternoon for us. All it's perfect time saying, yes, amazing, But everybody's wondering she's going to get back into singles. But I mean, she's obviously got another tournament lined up that's a doubles, but robe. She's got some plan to warm up for something.
00:13:47
Speaker 2: This is exciting, you know, is La My goodness? That would be Look at your face. Oh, don't get ahead of yourself.
00:13:56
Speaker 1: I'm a little ahead the knicks now, this and World Cup of losing it, lose it all right?
00:14:03
Speaker 2: Well, maybe to calm down you could take a nice little sip of bourbon.
00:14:07
Speaker 3: Well, we gotta find it first.
00:14:08
Speaker 2: Yes, for the final leg of our run, some brazen bourbon thieves were able to make out with more than half a million dollars worth of bourbon from a Philadelphia warehouse. How did they pull off taking eighteen hundred cases of Noble Oak bourbon? By the way, that's nearly eleven thousand bottles in the middle of the afternoon.
00:14:28
Speaker 1: They just pulled up a truck that was essentially it. They pulled up a truck and they loaded the truck. But get this, Their truck had fake logos, They had produced fake paperwork and had the warehouse employees themselves load the bottles in the truck. Have all these employees been fired?
00:14:49
Speaker 3: I don't believe so. Yeah.
00:14:51
Speaker 2: So they It took them about an hour to realize the shipment that was bound for New Jersey never arrived, and so they said this literally was a fake trucking company. They had a spoof name, they had a fake dispatcher with a phone number that when they first started calling, because they were calling the warehouse we were supposed to go to, and they're like, yeah, the shipment's not here yet. So they start calling the dispatcher and like, oh, yep, we'll be there soon, no worries, like letting them believe.
00:15:15
Speaker 3: That it was coming. That they just had run into some issues.
00:15:18
Speaker 2: And then eventually when they kept calling, they just stopped answering their phone calls and they realized, oh my god, we've been had.
00:15:26
Speaker 1: That would be my defensing court. Can I be charged with theft if you handed me the product?
00:15:32
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, you handed me the product by deception though it.
00:15:36
Speaker 3: Was all like all of the paperwork.
00:15:38
Speaker 2: Was absolutely for it selling you bro, Oh my goodness. And by the way, so the FEDS are investigating. They say this is a growing problem here in the States, and they say they will likely never recover this alcohol because it's just going to get sold to third parties and they're never going to find this alcohol.
00:15:55
Speaker 3: They should put special million dollars.
00:15:58
Speaker 1: If they put a special label on it, bro and said this is the stolen stuff.
00:16:01
Speaker 2: I would get a bottle, oh my god, and just see I put it on display. But they say that now maybe going forward they'll put tracking devices on any any trucks that come to deliver that.
00:16:11
Speaker 3: I think you could actually just put on.
00:16:13
Speaker 2: A tracking device or or or just make sure you're actually loading it on the right truck.
00:16:18
Speaker 3: Okay, there's that too.
00:16:19
Speaker 1: Don't give your product the way to thieves.
00:16:22
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
00:16:23
Speaker 1: I thought that'd cover that in orientation on day one.
00:16:26
Speaker 3: It was a costly mistake.
00:16:28
Speaker 2: All right, on this Tuesday, we will leave you with this quote of the day. Right now is the youngest you'll ever be. Slow down and enjoy today. It won't come again.
00:16:40
Speaker 1: Boom.
00:16:41
Speaker 3: I love that.
00:16:42
Speaker 1: Ain't nobody getting younger? Know what you think? I don't care what Tom Brady looks like. You're still aging. Okay, we're all aging. I love that. We always saw robes. Do you're not looking for somebody to grow older with. You should be looking for somebody do stay young with. Certainly stay as young as you possibly can. Today is all we got. Let's go play. Let's go see a move that new movie I've been talking about it. Let me go be a kid today.
00:17:02

00:00:18
Speaker 2: You know, I got a well, we both got a text from my oldest daughter yesterday. She hadn't seen the latest episode, and we kind of broke the news to her, who went home. She said she was gonna have to suspend listening to the morning run up. We were going to start giving out.

Speaker 2: Yeah, Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan, Chris Rock. I actually was fun seeing him there, Ben Stiller, John McEnroe, Jay Z, Derek Jeter, Eli Manning, Timothy's Shallow May dj Khaled Pact was.
00:07:03
Speaker 1: Dressed the business last night with that yellow shirt.
00:07:05
Speaker 2: Nice hard to miss Marishka Hargate and Larry David.
00:07:12
Speaker 3: That was fun to see that crowd.
00:07:14
Speaker 1: A lot of the usuals ending it ropes on the most part. Yes, there, it was annoying what happened outside. You heard people reporting about it even so, yes, some of the reporters even talk about what they went through getting in. It was inconvenient. It was annoying. People got over.
00:07:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were there.
00:07:28
Speaker 2: And New Yorkers, as we mentioned, especially NYPD, they know how to get people in and out of buildings and big arenas and Times Square safely, so that all went off without a hitch last night. But next up on the Run, we're gonna head overseas to a US helicopter that went down near the street of Poor Moves. And according to President Trump, the pilots were rescued and they are fine.
00:07:53
Speaker 1: We don't have all the details surrounding the crash, but the President confirmed last night that the pilots are fine, nobody was injured. He said we should expect information about it from the White House today. This was interesting, Robes. He was giving these comments as he was getting on the plane leaving the NBA Finals game. And oh yeah, there's a war going on.
00:08:10
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that too, all right.
00:08:12
Speaker 2: Next up on the Run, one week after election day. Wow, it's been one week now. Finally second place has been settled in the race for La mayor.
00:08:22
Speaker 3: Nathia Rahman.
00:08:23
Speaker 2: Is that how you say her name?
00:08:24
Speaker 3: Nathia? I always say it wrong.
00:08:26
Speaker 1: He put a little more stink on it than it deserves. But it's beautiful either way.
00:08:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was hoping Spencer prets easier to say so anyway, she's not going to be going forward.
00:08:36
Speaker 1: Yes, and she doesn't appreciate the comparison, Yes, she does not.
00:08:39
Speaker 3: She overtook Pratt, who had.
00:08:41
Speaker 2: A substantial lead over her on election day.
00:08:44
Speaker 1: Yes, ram as a city council member, was able to erase that lead as more mail in ballots were being counted robes. He had a significant lead, but he had so much of the Republican of Conservative support in LA, which is minimal. So think once the mail in ballot starting, this is why they didn't call it early. We were all like looking like, wait, why aren't they calling it? Surely he's gonna win this thing, and no, this all made sense. So now Ramen is going to face income at Karen Bass in November. This is one now that the DOJ says they have opened. Are the investigations not monitors, but they say they are looking into some irregularities. They're questioning whether or not it's a legit election in California.
00:09:25
Speaker 3: Yes, so we will wait for more on that.
00:09:27
Speaker 2: But in the meantime, the news search for Lynette Hooker, who disappeared in the Bahamas in April has already ended. This was a renewed coast Guard effort that focused on previously unsearched areas.
00:09:39
Speaker 1: The hooker went overboard, you remember, during a dinghy ride with her husband, Brian. He was briefly detained by police after her disappearance, but was released for lack of evidence, and he has always maintained his innocence. They say, the ropes. This investigation is not over just because this searches.
00:09:53
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but it's disappointing.
00:09:54
Speaker 2: They were certainly hoping they might be able to find her or at least some evidence that had not yet been covered.
00:10:00
Speaker 1: But next up on the run.
00:10:01
Speaker 2: Closing arguments already scheduled for this morning in the murder trial of Carmelo Anthony. That's the Texas teen who stabbed another seventeen year old during a confrontation at a track meet last year.
00:10:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, the defense rested its case yesterday after calling only about five or so witnesses. Carmelo did not testify in his own defense. The jury's expected to get their instructions and begin deliberating after closing arguments today. Big deal, he robes. They are not going home until they get a decision.
00:10:28
Speaker 2: Yes, he The judge has already told the jurors that they are being sequestered until they come up with their decisions. So apparently they're coming to court today with bags in hand, all right. Next up on the run, a federal appeals court has ruled that Alabama's new nitrogen gas execution method could inflict a cruel amount of pain and suffering. This ruling comes after death row inmate Jeffrey Lee, who was set to die by nitrogen gas on Thursday, filed an appeal.
00:10:58
Speaker 1: Now, this is an interesting story because this is somewhat of a win for his side, but this does not mean he's getting a stay of execution. What this ruling now says it sent Lee's case back to a district court where a judge will decide whether Lee can die by firing squad instead of nitrogen. The nitrogen gas essentially saying, Okay, that's a problem, let's just shoot you.
00:11:22
Speaker 2: Yes, well, and he asked for that to be the alternative, And of course he wanted to stay of execution.
00:11:28
Speaker 3: That was his first goal.
00:11:29
Speaker 2: But the second thing was, Okay, if you can't give me that, can you at least let me die by firing squad instead of nitrogen gas. We have to wait for word on that, but that decision has to come soon because yet, yes, he is set to die on Thursday. But it's really interesting. In fact, I was going to suggest we do an episode on this on what the court decided and determined about what nitrogen gas does to inmates. But Alabama has already executed six inmates this way since it started this process in twenty twenty four.
00:11:57
Speaker 3: Louisiana has used it once. But a lot of folks are.
00:12:01
Speaker 2: Raising their hands saying, we should not be killing inmates like this. It is absolutely cruel and unusual.
00:12:07
Speaker 1: All right toah, we'll stay with us here, folks on this Tuesday morning run. When we come back, she is back officially. Yes, today is the day, folks, we are going to see Serena Williams on a tennis court once again. And also coming up, well, if you're going to be a thief, why not still something worth a lot of money that can also give you a buzz. We'll tell you about the Bourbon thieves coming up. Stare, welcome back to this episode of Amy and DJ on. There's a morning ron we continue, herobes, come on, we're finally here, waiting almost four years for this day that we weren't even sure was gonna come. But Serena Williams is going to be back on a tennis court today.
00:12:54
Speaker 3: Yes, this is very exciting.
00:12:55
Speaker 2: She's going to make her highly anticipated return to tennis this evening doubles match at the HSBC Championships at the Queen's Club in London. She already has another tournament on her calendar later this month in Germany that's also a doubles, but she's playing Victoria. She's playing with Victoria Moboco. She's nineteen years old, so forty eight, So Serena's forty four and she's nineteen.
00:13:20
Speaker 3: That is going to be fun to watch.
00:13:21
Speaker 2: And if it's in London, I guess it's this afternoon for us here in the States.
00:13:25
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, it's early eves. It's five thirty there. Okay, it's five thirty there, early evening in London, so it'll be oh afternoon for us. All it's perfect time saying, yes, amazing, But everybody's wondering she's going to get back into singles. But I mean, she's obviously got another tournament lined up that's a doubles, but robe. She's got some plan to warm up for something.
00:13:47
Speaker 2: This is exciting, you know, is La My goodness? That would be Look at your face. Oh, don't get ahead of yourself.
00:13:56
Speaker 1: I'm a little ahead the knicks now, this and World Cup of losing it, lose it all right?
00:14:03
Speaker 2: Well, maybe to calm down you could take a nice little sip of bourbon.
00:14:07
Speaker 3: Well, we gotta find it first.
00:14:08
Speaker 2: Yes, for the final leg of our run, some brazen bourbon thieves were able to make out with more than half a million dollars worth of bourbon from a Philadelphia warehouse. How did they pull off taking eighteen hundred cases of Noble Oak bourbon? By the way, that's nearly eleven thousand bottles in the middle of the afternoon.
00:14:28
Speaker 1: They just pulled up a truck that was essentially it. They pulled up a truck and they loaded the truck. But get this, Their truck had fake logos, They had produced fake paperwork and had the warehouse employees themselves load the bottles in the truck. Have all these employees been fired?
00:14:49
Speaker 3: I don't believe so. Yeah.
00:14:51
Speaker 2: So they It took them about an hour to realize the shipment that was bound for New Jersey never arrived, and so they said this literally was a fake trucking company. They had a spoof name, they had a fake dispatcher with a phone number that when they first started calling, because they were calling the warehouse we were supposed to go to, and they're like, yeah, the shipment's not here yet. So they start calling the dispatcher and like, oh, yep, we'll be there soon, no worries, like letting them believe.
00:15:15
Speaker 3: That it was coming. That they just had run into some issues.
00:15:18
Speaker 2: And then eventually when they kept calling, they just stopped answering their phone calls and they realized, oh my god, we've been had.
00:15:26
Speaker 1: That would be my defensing court. Can I be charged with theft if you handed me the product?
00:15:32
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, you handed me the product by deception though it.
00:15:36
Speaker 3: Was all like all of the paperwork.
00:15:38
Speaker 2: Was absolutely for it selling you bro, Oh my goodness. And by the way, so the FEDS are investigating. They say this is a growing problem here in the States, and they say they will likely never recover this alcohol because it's just going to get sold to third parties and they're never going to find this alcohol.
00:15:55
Speaker 3: They should put special million dollars.
00:15:58
Speaker 1: If they put a special label on it, bro and said this is the stolen stuff.
00:16:01
Speaker 2: I would get a bottle, oh my god, and just see I put it on display. But they say that now maybe going forward they'll put tracking devices on any any trucks that come to deliver that.
00:16:11
Speaker 3: I think you could actually just put on.
00:16:13
Speaker 2: A tracking device or or or just make sure you're actually loading it on the right truck.
00:16:18
Speaker 3: Okay, there's that too.
00:16:19
Speaker 1: Don't give your product the way to thieves.
00:16:22
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
00:16:23
Speaker 1: I thought that'd cover that in orientation on day one.
00:16:26
Speaker 3: It was a costly mistake.
00:16:28
