  Speaker 1: Kyle and Fugg, what do we need to know today?
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Imagine showing up to work and finding out your company
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: is now offering 60,000 people money to leave. Not 60,000,
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: 60,000 people in your company are getting offered money to quit.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: That's what's happening right now at Microsoft. Employees around the
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: world are being offered voluntary buyouts. They're giving them six
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: to nine months pay, some even more. It's happening as
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: the company continues investing billions of dollars into artificial intelligence.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: And they're saying, look, we have to put our money here.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: So while basically before you get kicked out, because AI,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: we're going to pay you if you want to leave.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: But if you stay, there's no word on how long
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: you'll be staying.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure they're like, if the price is right.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: Like what a sticky situation.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: Six to nine months. That's a long time.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that, that. I do not envy that position. That's
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: a tough position to be in for those who work
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: at Microsoft.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Dictionary.com just announced its 2026.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: Word of the year is maxing.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: Word maxing added on to basically everything on social media
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: just basically means what it sounds like, overdoing.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: Usually when they announce the word of the year, it's
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: the word that we're all sick of and would like
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: to see go away. And in this case, I think
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: maxing is one of those.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but like maxing, it stemmed from that clavicular guy,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: and I don't love this for his ego.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Sleep maxing, looks maxing, fiber maxing, protein maxing, sport mom maxing.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, whatever it is.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: DJ maxing.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: If you're overdoing your life.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: DJ maxing.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: It is now the word of the year.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: This sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: A doctor just performed surgery on a patient who was
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: 35 miles away using a robotic system to operate.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Without even being in the same room.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Doctors say technology like this could eventually mean people in
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: smaller communities won't have to travel hours to get specialized surgery.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: It's like the future in medicine is here. it's really
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: annoying when you see a price on the shelf at
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: a store and then you get up to the register
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: and it costs more. This literally just happened to me
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: the other day. And now Arizona is actually joining a
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: lawsuit against Dollar General for doing exactly that. The lawsuit
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: claims customers have been charged more than the advertised prices
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: and now the company could have to answer for it.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: It's kind of not cool.
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: Dollar General. I get the Dollar General mixed up with
• 2:20
  Speaker 6: the other dollar stores, right? Dollar Tree.
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: Dollar Tree.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Dollar Tree. Maybe that's it.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: I love Dollar Tree.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: So Dollar Tree, I think that's what's on Thomas right
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: over here, right over there.
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: And that's the one I go to for my nose spray.
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: And my wife was going there the other day and
• 2:31
  Speaker 6: I have plenty of nose spray right now, but she was, Hey,
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: I'm going to Dollar Store.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Do you want anything? And I said, can you give
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: me the nose spray? She goes, yeah. So she goes
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: in there. She calls me. Guess what? It's now a spirit.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: It's not a Dollar Tree.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. Those spirits pop up everywhere.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Is it going to turn back into a Dollar Tree?
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: How does a Dollar Tree? That store was packed all
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the time. What happened?
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know. That's pretty wild.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: How sad.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: That's sad.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: This is actually wild.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Major League Baseball is testing a pretty crazy new rule
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: right here.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: It's in Scottsdale right now for the fall league.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: And they're making outfielders stand closer to the infield and
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: restricting where they move before the pitch, basically making it
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: harder for outfielders to catch like hot flies.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Or deep balls.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: I wonder why they'd switch that.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: They're doing it because they, the major league baseball apparently
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: wants more doubles and triples because it's more exciting for
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: fans to watch. So they want to make it extremely
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: hard for those outfielders to catch the balls.
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: The TikTok generation can't sit through nine innings of baseball.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: It's too slow.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: That's why banana ball is so important, like so popular.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: They changed the pitch clock so it does move faster.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: The games do go faster. It does move faster, yes.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: But apparently this new rule that they're testing has already
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: worked because in one game that they were testing it in,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: They had five triples, which was a league record. They're
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: testing it with the minor league prospects right now. But
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: if it keeps going well and they think that this
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: could work, it may eventually change how Major League Baseball
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: is played.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: And it would really suck for those outfielders.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: They should do it tonight. Isn't the game four tonight?
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Milwaukee didn't seem to have any problems last night.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: They went like 10-1, something like that. They're a game
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: away from a sweep.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: It would be big. And that's what you need to know.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Jocelyn. Hey.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: All right, so people have been calling us and describing
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: their job in a few words, but also being creepy
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: and mysterious.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: What's your job?
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: I take your sons and I dangle them upside down
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: for hours.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Your sons? Are you in Stranger Things?
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: I take your sons and I dangle them upside down
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: for hours. Maybe you're a gym teacher or a gymnast teacher.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: Yes, I am a boys gymnastics coach.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good workout, right? I love a good riddle.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: How long have you been doing that?
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: Oh, man. I've been doing boys for about 15 years,
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: and I did girls before that.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Anybody that you ever trained became a famous gymnast?
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: Not yet. I do the little ones, like, I don't know,
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: five-year-olds to about 10, 12-year-olds.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: All three of my boys did that. I loved it.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: It was great for them.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, both my sons are gymnasts also. My oldest is
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: at the Naval Academy.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: And he was on the national team, so that was something.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, there you go. That should have been your answer.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: That's a great answer. Way to go, Jocelyn.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: Thanks.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Well, thanks for calling in. Thank you for listening.
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, have a great day, y'all.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: You too.
