  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Friday morning, thirteenth day of June. It's the old Friday
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: the thirteenth. Back again, here we go. I'd like to
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: take a moment, as I do on a Friday the thirteenth,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: to remind you, as my good friend Scott Miller and
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: I said for many years on the radio together during
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: our show we co hosted Friday the thirteenth, you can
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: be superstitious about it all you want. It's not Monday
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: the thirteenth. Look at the bright side. It could be Monday.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: You could be starting your week and it'd be the thirteenth.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: But no, it's Friday the thirteenth. Hang in there. You
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: get five o'clock, six o'clock, whatever time your job ends.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Maybe you got an evening shift, maybe you got a
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: morning shift, whatever time your shift ends. Today it's the weekend.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: Hopefully you get the weekend off. And that's a positive
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: for many of you that are complaining and whining. And
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I don't know think Jason Vorhees is gonna come get you.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: He's not. It's okay unless you can know a guy
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: named Jason Vorhees who you know happens to be a
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: psychopath and has mother issues and all that. Then in
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: which case, yeah, you know, you may have some problems.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I can't fix all of them, but statistically speaking, your
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: odds of knowing someone who has all of that specific
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: going on in his life, and also, you know, you'd
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: have to again maybe be working a job where you're
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: gonna be working all weekend. I think basically, for you know,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: general purposes, it's probably not as bad as Monday the thirteenth.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: That's the whole point I'm trying to get to. It's
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: not so bad. It doesn't have to be so bad.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: It is Friday. It is a day we celebrate some
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: of these strange and bizarre news from around the world.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get to that in a second before we do.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: And I'm just kind of toying this idea around, and
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: I know that these stories may also be strange, but
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: there's some positive news kind of stories, and I want
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: to share those because I think every now and then
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: we should and maybe this may be a regular part
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: of our Friday experience together. But I would like to
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: share some stories that have a nice, positive, uplifting message
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: to them. And then you know, they can be part
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: of our Friday experience. That's all okay. So let's go
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: to Mansfield, Texas at a summit high school where the principal,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Jason Mutterer I'm not stuttering, it's Mutterer, also known as
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Coach Mutt, gave his graduating seniors a send off that
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: they'll never forget. Instead of a handshake and a diploma
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: like most principles do, he decided to give all of
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: the four hundred and forty three students a handwritten letter
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: and a crisp dollar bill. Mutt says the dollar is
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: because four hundred and forty three random acts of kindness
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: can start a ripple of positivity and an impactful change.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Coach Mutt said it took him over twenty four hours
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: to write all of those notes, but to him, it
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: was worth every minute because the gift was more than
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: just a farewell to the students. It was a challenge
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: to go out in the world and pay it forward.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: See that's what I mean. This is a good story,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: a good positive story. I like this guy as a principal.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: He's thinking kind of something different. There I say outside
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: the box and that overused expression, But that's what he's doing,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: and he's decided to come up with a way to
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: issue this challenge to the seniors. What a great impact
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: this guy had on his It'll be less snarky when
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: I do these, They're going to be a little less
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: snarky prop most of the time. I would assume, at
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the very least, they'll be less snarky. How about Mackinac Bridge,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: a massive five mile bridge that carries commuters and tourists
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: back and forth between the upper peninsula of Michigan to
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: the lower part of the state, and late in May,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: it was being used by a certain possum who had
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: found itself strolling along between the two peninsulas. A passing
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: motorist spotted the animal wandering onto the bridge called law
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: enforcement for help Themackinac Bridge Authority staff and Deputy Davis
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: from the Mackinac County Sheriff's Department located the possum safely
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: relocated it to the south end of the bridge, allowing
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: it to scurry into the wild near Mackinaw City. News
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: of the rescue went viral on social media. Featured a
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: picture of Deputy Davis and the possum, who was then
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: making its way along the walkway casually. See these are
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: fun positive stories. Work some of these in from time
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: to time, you know. I mean, we're about to get
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: to the good stuff. We're going to get to the
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: snarky stuff that's going to happen. That's what we do
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: on our fridays together. So with that said, those are good, right,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: aren't those all right? I don't know. We'll test him out.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: We'll see how we go with I think we need
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: some of these positive stories in the world, especially principles
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: doing nice things for students. They can't all be mister
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Belding on save by the Bell, I can tell you that.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: So we need a good positive story every now and then.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: All right, let's dive into this week's strange and bizarre
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: news from around the world. We'll start in Michigan. We
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: just ended in Michigan with our positive stuff. We'll go
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: to Michigan for this story where a man was placed
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: under arrest for calling a fake bomb threat to Spirit
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Airlines because he wasn't happy that he had missed his flight.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Police say twenty three year old John Charles Robinson of Monroe, Michigan,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: showed up to the airport late in Detroit missed his
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: flight to la and instead of rebooking quietly, he allegedly
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: called Spirit Airlines from hisself phone and claimed someone was
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: planning to blow up the flight. According to the FBI,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Robinson told the airline there's going to be someone who's
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: going to try to blow up that flight. They're going
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: to be carrying a bomb through TSA. The call triggered
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: an immediate emergency response. The flight was canceled, the plane evacuated,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: and the bomb sniffing dogs were brought in to do
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: a sweep of the plane. No explosives were found. Of course,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: this is shenanigans. Well, it's a crime. Investigators later discovered
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Robinson had been booked on that flight, missed it because
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: well he missed it, and they suspected he may have
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: phoned in the threat. He was arrested, and when he
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: returned to the airport later that day to catch a
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: different flight, that's when they caught him. When confronted with
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: recording the call, officials say he admitted to making it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Robinson faces a felony charge of making a false bomb threat.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: I think that scene an airplane when all the passengers
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: line up and start, you know, slapping they're just all
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: lined up, you know, slapping and you know, hammers and
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: bats and things. I think that might be a fun punishment.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: In this particular case, it certainly seems that would be
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: a planeload of very angry people. I know we would
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: be if we were planning a flight and that happened
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: to my family, we would be very upset. A Walmart
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: shopper ended up in handcuffs after calling the police to
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: report that the store had robbed him. It's a bizarre situation. Indeed,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: it went down at the self checkout. The shopper said
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: he was trying to scan nine avocados, but the machine
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: was giving him a hard time. He ended up accidentally
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: charging himself for nine hundred and ninety nine avocados, which
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: was a charge of thirteen hundred dollars. When the customer
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: noticed his mistake, he freaked out, claim the store was
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: robbing him. He then got on his phone and called
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: police to report that he was being robbed by Walmart.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Employees tried to calm the man down and explain to
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: him the mistake will be fixed, but he kept shouting
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: and causing a scene. Employees told him he needed to
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: leave the store, but he refused and insisted Walmart compensate
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: him for pain and suffering and distress. Eventually police arrived
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: and arrested him for trespassing. Yeah, it sounds like there's
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: something not right here. I don't know what it is.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: I can't put a finger on exactly what's going on
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: without doing a little more investigating. I'll just say this,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: if you're bringing up avocados and you're trying to buy
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: nine avocados and you accidentally punch in nine hundred and
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: ninety nine avocados, you could just call for help. Somebody
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: will come over to yourself check out and they'll take
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: off the at least, you know, nine hundred and ninety
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: of those avocados, and then you don't have to pay
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the thirteen hundred dollars. I don't think they've actually stolen
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: from you until they hold down and force you to
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: pay for almost one thousand avocados. Now, the other option,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: of course, is just pay for it and you have
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: a big walk party. I mean, it's a lot of
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: walk and avocados are good for you, so go out
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: and have a good time. Maybe just stock up on them.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: You know, we had this whole thing with you know,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: the left trying to tell us how expensive it was
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: going to be to buy avocados, and we had Chuck
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Schumer holding his holding his avocado and anyway Corona beer,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: just trying to tell us, like how expensive it's gonna be.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Those are the tariffs, so you could just load up.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: That would be pretty good, right. We got to follow
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: up on a story. Remember the runaway pet zebra Ed
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: finally has been captured. This was in Murphy's Borough, Tennessee.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Ed escaped from an owner's property. They're in Murphrey's Borough
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: and it'd been spotted multiple times, not striped, but spotted
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: multiple times. Well, he was striped and spotted I guess
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: over the course of the week and spent some time
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: running along the highway. Animal officials hadn't been able to
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: actually corral him. Ed quickly became an internet sensation. Videos
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: spotted of him again spotted and striped, trotting through neighborhoods
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: were shared on social media. The Rutherford County Sheriff's Office
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: finally wrangled Ed on Sunday after he was striped and
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: spotted in a pasture and he was outstanding in his field.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: A helicopter was called in to airlift him to a
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: waiting animal shelter. Ed's owner Laura Ford said the zebra safe,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: hundred percent healthy, so welcome home. I also heard that
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: there was a drone involved in like a dart to
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: get Ed under control. And apparently, if I remember correctly,
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: the story was Ed was a gift. And I guess
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Laura Ford wasn't really sure about corraling a zebra, didn't
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: know what to do all those sorts of things. So
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: I'm glad to know that he's home. Hopefully now they
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: are able to, you know, secure him a little bit
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: better and give him that dream home that he deserves, right,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: he deserves it. A head and run driver was arrested
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: after he was chased down by a man on a horse.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: And you might think, okay on a horse. Maybe this
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: was like Texas, Oklahoma, Wyoming, you know, somewhere out west, No,
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: no New Jersey place s A driver crashed into a
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: parked car in Riverside Township and then sped off. A
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: woman called police and she said she heard a loud
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: crash outside her home and she saw a car speeding away.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: What the suspect did not count on was a witness
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: named PJ. Who just happened to be on horseback nearby
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: and rode up to the woman and told her he
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: was on the case. PJ took off on his horse, Shiny,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: it's great. That just makes the story better, and got
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: close enough to the car to make out a license
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: plate number. Officers were able to track down the driver
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: and arrested the twenty two year old driver, who was
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: charged with careless driving, leaving the scene of an accident,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: driving without a license. Nice job, PJ, Nice job Shining.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: I think Shiny did a lot of the work. You know,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: you got to chase down a car. That's not easy,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: so kudos. And I think this is a great story
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: for you know, New Jersey's had a lot of bad
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: news lately. New Jersey needs some positive news, so PJ
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: and Shiny have delivered for New Jersey. A door Dash
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: driver headed out to deliver food and ended up exposing
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: a major security flaw at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport uh OH.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: A DoorDash driver and a red Hundai Launcher managed to
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: pass right through a security gate at the airport, drove
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: right onto the tarmac before coming to a stop alongside
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: a United Airlines plane parked at Tarmina I. The driver
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: told authorities he was simply following GPS directions to deliver
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: the food that had been ordered. The most troubling part
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: of the story is that the driver got through security
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: because there was no guard there at the time, not
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: only that the Hyundai was parked next to the plane
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: for about ten minutes before police arrived. Row investigators say
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: that a private security guard contracted by the airport to
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: guard the gate at the south side of the airport
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: admitted she saw an unfamiliar vehicle enter the tarmac didn't
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: report it immediately, though she has since been terminated. The
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: door dash driver was released without charges. Unclear though if
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: he is still employed. I don't know that he I mean,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: if he's being honest, and if his GPS directed him there,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know what what did he do wrong?
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: You could say, well, maybe he should have realized it,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: But I would think that a security guard being present
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: there would have been helpful and allowing him to realize
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: that he wasn't supposed to be there. Like, I don't
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: know that this is his fault. That's my thoughts. All Right,
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: you've heard a cocaine bear, well, a group of mad
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: scientists at the University of Utah have Frankenstein, a cocaine fly.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: That's what we need. Researchers wanted to better understand how
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: addiction works in the brain, so they turned a bunch
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: of fruit flies into coke heads. It wasn't easy to do, though.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: Flies hate cocaine. In fact, they are naturally designed with
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: special receptors in their legs to detect all toxins, so
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: they know how to avoid them. If only we had
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: something in our bodies that would cause us to stay
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: away from things like, I don't know, hard drugs. It's
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: almost like we just ignore those things anyway. So scientists
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: got creative, not all of us, just some people. So
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: scientists got creative. They got to put their brains together
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: and figured out how to genetically modify the flies to
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: remove the natural aversion to the drug and actually like
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: it and seek it out. Now, maybe that's more like
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: what we got going on. They believe that the flies,
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: which actually are actually share a surprising amount of genetic
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: material with humans. They're closer to us than you would think.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: I should say, we'll be able to tell us more
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: about why our brains become addicted to drugs and how
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: better treatments can be developed. So it's right there, it's
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: right there, and what I'm talking about, it's all just
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: kind of right there. But cocaine flies, fruit flies or
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: any kind of flying things. We don't need this, and
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: we don't need this to come out of a cocaine
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: fly lab in China or somewhere. We don't will know
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: if that happens in this particular research that was being done.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, we need to just make sure that we
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: keep this under control because this doesn't need to be
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: a widespread problem. Today's show brought to you by Columbus
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center. Hey.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Everyone, this is doctor Sean Crusin. I'm the executive director
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: of Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center. I
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: want to tell you about a very special exhibit that
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: we have on display the summer. It's so big that
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: it can't even fit in our own exhibit gallery. It's
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: just too many pieces.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: This is a.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Collection of items from the personal collection of astronaut David R. Scott.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Dave Scott flew on Gemini eight with Neil Armstrong. He
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: flew on Apollo nine. A dress rehearsal for the moon landing,
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: and then most importantly perhaps he commanded Apollo fifteen, where
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: he became the first person to ever drive a car
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: on the us of the Moon. Because Dave's brother, Tom
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: lived and worked here in Columbus, Georgia, with our Columbus
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Chamber of Commerce, we got to be good friends with Tom.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: Tom has coordinated a very generous donation of artifacts and
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: memorabilia from the Scott Brothers collection to us here at
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Coca Cola Space Science Center. And again, that collection got
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: so overwhelmingly large we couldn't put it on display here.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: That's why we're doing the exhibit at the Bow Bartlet Center.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: They are open from eleven am to four pm Tuesday
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: through Saturday. Go down and check out this great exhibit
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: on display at the Bow Bartlet Center. Check out all
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: the other wonderful pieces of artwork down there as well,
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: and then come visit us here at Columbus State University's
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: Coca Cola Space Science Center.
• 17:43

• 17:51
  Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: always good to get maintenance on anything that has parts
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: that move and have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door

  Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of square in that
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: away for you, and while they're there, you can always
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: ask them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: you'd like to make to your garage door. Maybe your
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: curb appeal isn't quite what you want it to be
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: and you need some repair work done to the outside door.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes that stuff gets in
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: door system that you can put down and you can
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: use your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: man cavid you'd like to be able to open the
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: And they do those as well. Seven oh sixty five

  Speaker 2: Morning Show right after the break well. The company in
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: China has developed a humanoid robot specifically designed to clean
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: hotel rooms. It's the Zerith h one and it could
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: be a game changer in the hotel industry. It can
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: stoop to pick up items from the floor, clean everything
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: from toilets to tabletops, vacuum and mop all while avoiding
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: bumping into furniture or guests. How about that. A couple
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: days ago, we were talking about some of the jobs
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: that could be concerning when it to AI, and I
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: was commenting that, you know, you look at trade jobs
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: electricians and plumbers and welders and things like that, mechanics,
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: there are a number of jobs that you would think
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: AI is not coming for. And I said, I don't
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: know how close we are to having some sort of
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: a robot that can come into your house and do
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: all of the plumbing work in this story comes along
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: and this gets eerily like yikes. Okay, well, if it
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: can come in and clean your hotel room pick up things.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't say. It says cleaning tabletops and toilets,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: cleaning a toilet and fixing a toilet it. I know
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: it's not the same thing, but are we starting to
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: get close? Does it make the beds too? I don't
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: know how that works. Hey. The T two o six
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: Honus Wagner baseball card between nineteen oh nine and nineteen eleven,
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: one of the crown Jewels of sports collectible, is only
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: fifty four known to exist, and it's one of the
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: cards that is currently on the auction block and will
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: be sold when the auction ends coming up on June
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: twenty first. It was quick to build up more than
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: three point million dollars in the sports world is watching
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: because the card could end up being the most expensive
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: card ever. Currently, the record is held by the Tops
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: nineteen fifty two Mickey Mantle Rookie card, which sold for
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: twelve point two million dollars back in twenty twenty two. So, yeah,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: if we had jumped very quickly up to more than
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: three million dollars. I don't know what it is at
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: the moment, but yeah, it's it could easily be the
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: new record holder. So healthcare officials in England have found
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: that the average, that's the best way to say this,
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: I was trying to decide earlier, a certain member of
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: the mail anatomy has increased by a ten percent over
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: the past few years, and they believe it has something
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: to do with weight loss drugs like ozimpic. Supposedly some
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: guy in Venezuela experienced a significant increase within that two
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: year period. And while it seems unlikely, there's some solid
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: data that suggests that the average has changed significantly at
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: whatever you wanted to find it significantly in that two
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: year period. So another possible side effect and byproduct of,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: you know, weight loss drugs like ozimpic. This isn't me
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: telling you, hey, rush out and get ozimpic. That's not
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: what I'm doing. I'm just passing along the information because
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: it's I mean, it's a piece of information some people
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: might want to know. Some people might want this information,
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: that's all.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Hey.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: A team of physicist in England has created what they're
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: calling the world's smallest violin made out of platinum, measures
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: thirty five microns long, smaller than a human hair, and
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: it's one millionth of a meter. Scientists created this using
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: advanced nanotechnology, and it's just a microscopic image and it
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: does not actually make music. But still when people talk
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: about smallest violin, now there is actually a smallest violin.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: It doesn't play, but it's there.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: According to a.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: New study, time doesn't always tick the same everywhere, at
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: least not in our heads. Researchers found people exercising on
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: stationary bikes consistently felt like time was dragging, overestimating how
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: long thirty seconds lasted by about nine percent. Researchers believe
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: this time warp has to do with how our brains
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: process reality under physical stress. And all of this is
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: kind of a bummer, because if the time warp is true,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: with thirty minute workout will actually feel like you've been
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: huffing and puffing for thirty three minutes. We've all been there.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: An epic robot battle was recently held in China, featuring
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: humanoids squaring off the robots controlled by humans with remote controls.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: It's a movie with Hugh Jackman. They punched kick to
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: nad their way through a six robot tournament. In the
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: final showdown, a sleek black bot named Ai Strategist faced
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: a green rival called PowerCore Guardian. In the end, Ai
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Strategist took the crown, becoming the world's first humanoid robot
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: kickboxing tournament champion. Congratulations, that'll do it for this Friday
