  introduced the first iPhone, combining a capacitive

  touchscreen, a rich internet communication device,
• 0:26
  and a portable media player into a single elegant

  handset that reshaped consumer expectations.
• 0:33
  That breakthrough set a new standard for mobile
• 0:36
  computing and intuitive design, launching an
• 0:39
  application ecosystem and inspiring decades of
• 0:42
  innovation in how people interact with technology.

• 2:11
  enthusiasts! This podcast is brought to you by
• 2:14
  Versailles Café and Pastries in Encinitas. Nestled
• 2:19
  on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas
• 2:22
  Boulevard, this cafe is a haven for culinary
• 2:26
  delights. Indulge in their amazing Eggs Benedict
• 2:30
  or their gluten -free crepes. You can grab a
• 2:34
  panini for lunch or just breeze on through to
• 2:37
  get your morning coffee. They are open every
• 2:40
  day from 8 to 5. So stop on by and don't forget
• 2:44
  to tell them. Sunny Morning sent you. In local
• 2:49
  news, at Block Island, a whale has washed ashore.
• 2:54
  The Block Island Chamber of Commerce reported
• 2:56
  on social media that the whale carcass is situated
• 2:59
  north of Town Beach. Visitors to the area are
• 3:03
  urged to give the whale plenty of space and to
• 3:06
  avoid approaching or disturbing the site. A Facebook
• 3:10
  post expressed gratitude, stating, Thank you
• 3:14
  to everyone helping protect both our wildlife.
• 3:17
  and our community. For those interested, you
• 3:20
  can stream NBC 10 Boston News for free 24 hours
• 3:24
  a day, seven days a week, wherever you are. Now
• 3:32
  on to sports. The main focus of every National
• 3:37
  Hockey League draft weekend is the players hearing
• 3:39
  their names called, whether at the top of the
• 3:42
  class or at the end of the seventh round. While
• 3:46
  trades are completed and the foundation for future
• 3:48
  moves is built, it is one of the busiest times
• 3:51
  of the offseason. The San Jose Sharks emerged
• 3:54
  as winners, significantly adding to their prospect
• 3:57
  pool with three of the top 21 picks, including
• 4:01
  the second overall pick and the ninth overall
• 4:03
  pick. In contrast, the Seattle Kraken's reputation
• 4:07
  suffered when their deal for Jason Robertson
• 4:10
  fell apart, leaving them without the superstar
• 4:13
  they desperately need. The Buffalo Sabres had
• 4:16
  a great weekend, trading for key players and
• 4:19
  locking in forward Zach Benson to a long -term
• 4:22
  contract extension. In local sports, the Red
• 4:26
  Sox capped off a dominant sweep of the Yankees
• 4:29
  last night, winning 5 -4 behind Sonny Gray's
• 4:33
  brilliant 7 -1 innings of one -hit ball with
• 4:37
  nine strikeouts. Boston's now won four straight
• 4:40
  and ten of their last 13 games. Tonight, they
• 4:44
  host the Nationals at Fenway at 7 -10, with Ranger
• 4:49
  Suarez taking the mound against Miles Michaelis
• 4:52
  in what shapes up as a classic hitching duel.
• 4:56
  The Sox have real momentum heading into this
• 4:59
  three -game series. Meanwhile, the Celtics are
• 5:03
  staying active in the offseason. They just resigned
• 5:06
  Ron Harper Jr. to a three -year, $9 million deal.
• 5:11
  declining his team option to commit to the longer
• 5:14
  contract. The Celtics continue to ask for at
• 5:17
  least four first -round picks in trade discussions
• 5:20
  around Jalen Brown, testing the market with multiple
• 5:24
  teams. On the ice, the Bruins made a big move
• 5:28
  at the draft, acquiring winger J .J. Peterka
• 5:31
  from Utah by trading the 23rd overall pick at
• 5:36
  a 2028 first -rounder. The 24 -year -old scored
• 5:41
  25 goals last season and is signed through 2029
• 5:45
  -30 with a $7 .7 million cap hit. Development
• 5:50
  Camp opens today at Warrior Ice Arena in Brighton.
• 5:55
  In top news, how Cambodian artifacts stolen from
• 6:00
  temples ended up in American museums is a story
• 6:03
  of loss and recovery. The theft of Cambodia's
• 6:06
  cultural treasures, including sacred stone, bronze,
• 6:10
  and gold artifacts, might just be the greatest
• 6:12
  art heist in history. This began nearly a century
• 6:16
  ago during French colonization, but looting surged
• 6:20
  during the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, driven by a British
• 6:24
  man named Douglas Latchford. His gang sold stolen
• 6:28
  items to wealthy collectors and prestigious museums
• 6:31
  worldwide. Cambodia's government has spent the
• 6:35
  last 14 years trying to track down its stolen
• 6:38
  history and heritage. Yet many treasures remain
• 6:41
  hidden in private collections and museums. In
• 6:46
  business news, oil prices rose Sunday while U
• 6:50
  .S. stock index futures advanced after the U
• 6:53
  .S. and Iran continued to trade fire in the Persian
• 6:56
  Gulf, renewing fears that the Strait of Hormuz
• 6:59
  may effectively be shut again. Dow Jones Industrial
• 7:03
  Average futures were up 177 points, or 0 .3 %
• 7:09
  late Sunday. S &P 500 futures and NASDAQ 100
• 7:14
  futures also gained following a steep technology
• 7:17
  sell -off on Friday. Bitcoin was trading below
• 7:22
  $60 ,000, down more than 7 % over the past week.
• 7:26
  In crypto movement, Bitcoin has unchanged over
• 7:31
  the weekend. at about $60 ,000. Ethereum is up
• 7:35
  1 .5 % to just under $1 ,600. And XRP is up 1
• 7:41
  .5 % to $1 .05. Moving on to a more local vibe.

• 8:28
  Morning sent you by. And now, back to the show.
• 8:33
  Let's talk tech. Streaming ads might be getting
• 8:38
  a lot quieter this week. A California law banning
• 8:41
  streaming services from showing ads louder than
• 8:44
  the video content that they accompany is set
• 8:47
  to take effect on Wednesday, July 1st. Existing
• 8:51
  legislation already imposes similar volume restrictions
• 8:54
  on broadcast and cable television commercials.
• 8:58
  While the volume limitations only apply to California
• 9:01
  for now, it seems likely that any relevant changes
• 9:04
  would be deployed more broadly. When the law
• 9:08
  was passed in 2025, its sponsor, State Senator
• 9:11
  Thomas Sundberg, said it was inspired by every
• 9:15
  exhausted parent who has struggled with loud
• 9:17
  ads. And in entertainment news. Channing Tatum's
• 9:24
  new true crime thriller, Roofman, has officially
• 9:28
  become the number one movie on streaming. Tatum,
• 9:32
  known for his range, has taken on various roles,
• 9:35
  including a villain in Blink Twice and a superhero
• 9:38
  in Deadpool and Wolverine. Despite not making
• 9:42
  much noise at the box office, Roofman has thrived
• 9:46
  on streaming, remaining in the charts for over
• 9:48
  170 days. The film, directed by Derek Sanfrance,
• 9:54
  follows former soldier Jeffrey Manchester, played
• 9:57
  by Tatum, who leads a double life that unravels
• 10:00
  when he falls for a divorced mother. The movie
• 10:03
  has received an 87 % rating on Rotten Tomatoes,
• 10:07
  showcasing Tatum's compelling performance. Well,
• 10:11
  alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the
• 10:14
  day. And today, our quote comes from the American
• 10:18
  entrepreneur and inventor, Steve Jobs. And he
• 10:22
  said, innovation distinguishes between a leader
• 10:26
  and a follower, highlighting the transformative
• 10:29
  power of groundbreaking ideas in shaping the
• 10:32
  future. And that's a wrap for this morning. You
