13
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000
You're being infiltrated. Radio big.

14
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:59,000
Yes, infiltration and radio big is kind of the way that we go with doing some of the stuff that we do around here. There is definitely not a doubt about that.

15

So don't worry as we are talking because hey man, yeah, that's what we do. Infiltration radio big. Just kind of the way of the world of the things that we do. No doubt there.

16
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:19,000
So anyways, how was your weekend? Did you survive another weekend before the holidays? Because that's going to be a big thing for people to talk about.

17
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:33,000
You know, hey, I had to go do this. I had to go do that. I swear, you know, I hardly been inundated with any mailing lists or advertisements about any kind of a sales or cyber deals that I could have potentially missed out on and all that kind of fun stuff.

18
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:42,000
And yesterday, yesterday I had to tell you I went to Universal Studios and you know, not, you know, not talking about them in particular, but

19
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:55,000
remember I had told you that the week, the week end of a, of Thanksgiving, I went there on Sunday, hardly anyone. Yesterday I went totally reverse scenario. Everybody and their brother was there.

20
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:08,000
But hey, I mean, that's cool because a lot of people were there for the Macy's Day parade thing that they have. So yeah, good for them. So anyway, let's talk about this. Here's what we got going on on this lovely Monday.

25
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:55,000
And some people are like, Oh, you ignored me. It's I didn't ignore you. I just don't look at anything there. So that's it. That's it. That's the, that's the Schindler's. That's the Schindler's list there. Yeah. That's what I'm saying.

But before I start ranting and raving about everything under the sun, why don't we start talking about what the hell was trending in the overnight?

28
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,000
Here is what was trending rated are safety show.

29
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Okay. So let's take a look at those trending moments. So did I'm 10 10 10 10 10 10.

30
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:47,000
This is what was happening. I see roads aren't the only thing to worry about behind the wheels. This winter. We'll talk about that as we get into the shit list. Also, Barry Kiergaard called social media trolls and a housewife shows off some facial damage.

31
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:56,000
We'll talk about that as we get into show business. Also a pair of Ruby slippers that sells for a record breaking price at auction and Coldplay. And I am says a charity event.

32
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:08,000
So we'll get into some of that. And also Donald Trump suggests that Prince Harry could have some immigration troubles and the forthcoming and his forthcoming administration.

33
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:25,000
So there it is. A lot of stuff for us to talk about. So be on the lookout as we are talking there. So there you go. Some stuff happening always as we are looking around and doing our thing.

34
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:37,000
So with that being said, let's go ahead and bring in our friends from feature story news and let them talk with them. Everything that's going on right now. So let's do that.

35
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Here is the news on the radio safety show from feature story news in New Delhi.

36
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:54,000
Celebrations continue across Syria as the country wakes up to the end of Bashar al-Assad's rule, a family that had been in power for five decades.

37
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:03,000
Over the weekend, rebels seized the capital of Damascus, forcing President Bashar al-Assad to flee. The president is now in Moscow along with his family.

38
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Russian state media confirming and will be given asylum there. Trent Murray has more.

39
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:25,000
Scenes of jubilation continuing to play out in towns and cities across the country, marking really the end of what has been one of the most brutal civil wars not just the Middle East has experienced in recent times but indeed the world.

40
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:38,000
We have seen some of those people in the capital Damascus for example even breaching the presidential palace of Damascus, looting the personal belongings of the Assad family.

41
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Of course through much of the past 24 hours one of the big questions had been where President Bashar al-Assad fled to. Certainly there were indications that he was on a plane but the destination was unknown.

42
00:07:50,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Overnight we have heard from Russian state media that he and his family have now travelled to Moscow where they were granted asylum by President Putin.

43
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:12,000
US President Joe Biden has offered his nation's ongoing support for Syria but it's not clear what Biden's approach will be and whether it will be shared by his successor Donald Trump who takes over next month.

44
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,000
Jagruti Dhave is in Washington DC.

45
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:24,000
A moment of historic opportunity, that's how Joe Biden described the capture of Damascus and the departure of Assad after more than two decades in power.

46
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:33,000
Mr Biden's optimism came with a warning that this was also a moment of risk and uncertainty with ISIS preparing to take advantage of the power vacuum.

47
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:39,000
With that in mind he said the US had conducted dozens of precision airstrikes in Syria.

48
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:48,000
The incoming Trump administration is also watching events in the Middle East closely with the President-elect posting on Truth Social a day before the government's collapse.

49
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,000
This is not our fight. Let it play out. Do not get involved.

50
00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:03,000
But given the level of existing US sanctions on Syria's economy and concerns about ISIS, the Trump administration may find that staying out of Syria is easier said than done.

51
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:09,000
China is monitoring developments in Syria it says and hopes the country returns to stability as soon as possible.

52
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Beijing's Foreign Ministry also said its embassy in Damascus has been helping Chinese nationals leave Syria.

53
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:28,000
On Chinese social media the fall of President Bashar al-Assad was a trending topic with the Satchitan rebels declare end to Assad rule receiving more than nine and a half million views.

54
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:36,000
Beijing has stepped up engagement with Damascus in recent years looking to Syria to expand its influence in the Middle East.

55
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Last year Chinese President Xi Jinping invited Assad to China. From bureaus worldwide this is FSN.

56
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:52,000
With FSN Spotlight I'm Simon Marks with more on the weekend's extraordinary events in Syria and the sweeping from power of dictator Bashar al-Assad.

57
00:09:52,000 --> 00:10:04,000
US President-elect Donald Trump said over the weekend that he does not believe the United States should be playing any role arguing on social media that this is not our fight.

58
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:14,000
But in fact the US is already deeply engaged in Syrian affairs. There are 900 troops in the northeast of the country supporting Kurdish fighters there.

59
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:24,000
And American sanctions on Syria's oil and gas sectors are so comprehensive that to all intents and purposes it has a strangle hold over the country's economy.

60
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Joshua Landis heads the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma.

61
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:35,000
There are heavy American sanctions on this. America owns all the oil and gas so that's not coming to the Syrian government.

62
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:46,000
And so Assad has not been able to rebuild. We'll have to see what the new one brings and whether America will lift those sanctions, return oil and gas to the Damascus or keep it for the Kurds.

63
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:52,000
These are going to be big questions. They're going to look to the international community to lift those sanctions.

64
00:10:52,000 --> 00:11:10,000
He spoke to Canada's CBC. Many observers believe that after Bashar al-Assad and members of his minority Alawite sect in Syria, the Kurds may be the biggest losers from this weekend's events, with Turkey watching closely and hoping to neutralize Kurdish hopes for autonomy.

65
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
With FSN Spotlight, I'm Simon Marks.

66
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:25,000
The main news again. Syria's Bashar al-Assad is in Moscow and will be given asylum there, Russian state media is confirming. Even a celebrations continue across Syria following his ouster.

67
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:35,000
U.S. President Joe Biden has offered his nation's ongoing support for Syria as he claims America's approach to Syria shifted the balance of power in the Middle East.

68
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,000
China says it is monitoring developments and hopes the country returns to stability soon.

69
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,000

If you're anything like me, you have certain tendencies to put things off such as filing taxes, seeing the doctor, you know, working on that home improvement project that you're supposed to be doing, but you just haven't gotten to it.

Oh, yes. Some risky business as we are 17 minutes past the top of the hour hanging out on this lovely Monday.

112
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:15,000
So let's start talking right away about some of the things that are going on inside of the world of the multiverse because that's kind of part of what we do.

113
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:22,000
Nerd alert. Michael Jamon claimed the top prize of this year's Excel championship.

114
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Yes, Microsoft Excel championship, a financial due diligence expert from Canada edge out.

115
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:35,000
Andrew the Annihilator. No, really. That's in his nickname from Australia at the Las Vegas Gala.

116
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:49,000
The championship challenges include managed data and simulated game of Worldcraft with each retreat with calculating characters, various and game capabilities as the scenarios unfold.

117
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:56,000
Whereas accomplishment jamming took home $5,000 in a WWE style belt.

118
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:03,000
They are now the when everything gets announced, people tend to start going bananas about it.

119
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,000
If you want to, we can take a little listen. It's in here.

120
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:18,000
Some of the stuff we have 30 seconds left. Okay, let's see.

121
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Michael Jarman off top spot with 30 seconds to go.

122
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:28,000
It is. I think it's coming. Are we coming? Are we going to see 2120 seconds left?

123
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:37,000
Australia to Canada. All right, let's see. Oh, 10 seconds.

124
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:44,000
Come on. Is anything going to happen? Can anybody throw a Leroy Jenkins out in the last few seconds?

125
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,000

I don't know the dudes Michael Jordan, but that's what they're saying.

128
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,000
They're.

129
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,000
Yeah.

130
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,000
So there you go. People very excited about.

131
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:15,000
About, you know, playing the game in Microsoft. So yeah, I mean, hey, whatever.

132
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:20,000
I mean, whatever works, whatever floats your boat, I guess. So there you go.

133
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:29,000
So a new study has given the meaning to happy wife, happy life, but that's the mutual enjoyment of each other's company goes both ways.

134
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:39,000
The research team analyze that data gathered in a different studies of from 321 older adult couples who have been together on average 44 years.

135
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:55,000
From Canada and Germany, participants completed regular surveys to report their moods throughout the day and provided corresponding saliva samples up to seven times each day to measure their levels of cortisol and stress hormones.

136
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000
Yep. I'm not, this, this is what the report says. So there you go.

137
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:13,000
In general, one partner had lower levels of cortisol. When the other partner reported positive mood, when one partner reported more negative emotions, there was a correspondent increase in each other's cortisol levels.

138
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:27,000
However, researchers suggest that this could mean that older people do a better job at regulating their emotions. Overall, the older participants and more positive emotions expressed the lower cortisol levels in the relationship.

139
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,000
So there you go.

140
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Okay. So let's make sure that I understand this. If my spouse is stressed out, that causes me stress.

141
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:46,000
Hmm. I don't know if it took a genius to figure that out, but yeah, that's kind of how that world normally goes is what I would imagine there. So there you go.

142
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:53,000
So take a listen to this. Here's the latest in the investigation of United healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson's murder.

143
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Police recovered the backpack believed to belong to the prime suspect in central park, but found monopoly money inside.

144
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:12,000
And the New York post reports that multiple insurance companies have scrubbed their, the names of top executives off their websites likely as a measure to protect their, um, well, their identity.

145
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:23,000
I would imagine the FBI has issued a $50,000 reward to offer tips that successfully lead to the suspects capture while law enforcement seems certain.

146
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:29,000
They figured out the prime suspect's identity and they have not yet released his name. So.

147
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:35,000
I will tell you because you know, we live in this, uh, multiple reality, uh, world at the moment.

148
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:44,000
Really? When I say that it's sarcasm, of course, but we live in this world where we have this digital life and we have this virtual life and we have this real life.

149
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,000
But some people over the weekend.

150
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:52,000
We're naming off companies and their CEOs in case people wanted to know it.

151
00:22:52,000 --> 00:23:05,000
And I know we can be, um, but one would call it a time as Polish when it comes to certain aspects, but being that, I mean, timeline is always kind of important when you're going to play some of these games as we are talking.

152
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,000
So I don't know. I mean, I don't know.

153
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:16,000
It's going to be an interesting one. Once the person is captured from this murder, uh, because that this is just a strange thing.

154
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:26,000
And like we played part of the video, you can't play the whole video through because that's just, you know, not the thing to do, but man, it makes you kind of wonder.

155
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Sometimes some of the things that are going on in this lifetime, no doubt about that.

156
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Okay. So in some followups and updates from the big stories around the world over the weekend in South Korea, after last week, short-lived martial law declaration, the president of South Korea apologized for the chaos and saying that he has instituted the measure out of desperation.

157
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Hours later, the nation's parliament failed to meet for a quorum and in an impeachment vote after enough of the president's allies in the legislature exited the room for the vote.

158
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:08,000
Uh, you maintain that he will not try to, uh, to evade future legal or political responsibilities in the New York times reports in Syria.

159
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:16,000
Rebel groups took control of Syria over the weekend, forcing the nation's, uh, president.

160
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:29,000
Let's see two into exile aside and his family have reportedly been given asylum in Russia, which has been a long time financial backer of the regime.

161
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Meanwhile, um, search of American journalists, Austin Tice is underway. Tice was kidnapped in Syria while reporting in 2012.

162
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:49,000
In a brief statement on Sunday, president Joe Biden said that he believes that Tice is alive and that a diplomatic efforts are underway to bring him back home separately.

163
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000
Tice family tells ABC news.

164
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:56,000
They have sources who have confirmed that he is alive and well in El Salvador.

165
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:03,000
An optimistic note president from the president announced the discovery of $3 trillion in gold in the country.

166
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:17,000
And they will work to undo regulatory bands of mining other for other precious metals and elements discovered include, um, well, 10 gallium tan tan tanium.

167
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Um, so be on the lookout for some of that stuff.

168
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:26,000
It'll be interesting to see because, Hey, you know, who doesn't like some Muna some Mula there.

169
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,000
You are listening to a radio. God, what?

170
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,000
This has to be an error. That host is not a radio. God.

171
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:37,000
Anyways, this is the rated R safety show on safety FM.

That's what we go through. So take a listen to this.

174
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,000
Be careful driving and singing this holiday season.

175
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:54,000
A new study in South China University of technology found that songs with BPM greater than 120 encourages dangerous driving behaviors.

176
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,000
Applying that to Christmas classic frosty.

177
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:03,000
The snowman was deemed the most dangerous to drive with with 172 BPMs coming in.

178
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,000
Second was Mariah carries.

179
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:09,000

Let it snow. Let it snow. Let it snow.

184

Rudolph the red nose reindeer.

So I guess, you know, get the holiday cheer out of the car while you're driving is what it sounds like to me.
