16
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,680
It doesn't matter who the host is.

17
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,680
Oh, you know it, I know it, and we all talk about it,

18
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,680
because that's what we do. It does not matter who the host is.

19
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,680
What has always mattered is who the listeners are.

20
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:42,680
Anyways, today's Tuesday, January the 14th of 2025,

21
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:49,680
day 14th of the year, and only 351 days left to go.

22
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,680
We are broadcasting from the Safety FM Studios in Orlando, Florida,

23
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,680
and coming across the multiverse known as Safety FM,

24
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,680
and then we are hanging out with our friends and colleagues over there.

25
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:08,680
Rio Big. USA, Canada, UK.

26
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,680
Yep, hanging out with our friends at Radio Big is kind of what we do.

27
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,680
It is our thing-o, no doubt about that,

28
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,680
as we are hanging out and talking and doing all of the stuff that we get to do.

29
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,680
So how are you? How has the last 24 hours or so been?

30
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,680
Anything fun? Anything exciting?

31
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,680
Anything that you want to brag about because you have time to do that?

32
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,680
If you want to do that, go to callinradio.com.

33
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,680
That's callinradio.com.

34
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:40,680
It will give you all the kind of opportunity of doing all the stuff that we just talked about.

35
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,680
Anyways, you can text message, video message, audio message.

36
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,680
I always tell people, if you do anything on the social media platforms, that's great.

37
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,680
I am just terrible at checking it.

38
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,680
This is really what it boils down to. So there you go.

39
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,680
But you do have some options there.

40
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:04,680
So a lot of stuff going on as we are hanging out and doing our thing, no doubt about that.

41
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,680
So let's talk about what our show consists of.

42
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,680
Our show consists of safety in the news, news and safety if you're new here.

43
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,680
If you're not new here, you know that, and that's probably why you've come back.

44
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:20,680
So we are a radio show that's on a podcast network that's also just some kind of video streaming.

45
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,680
Yeah. That is the breakdown of the land of everything that we do.

46
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:30,680
Kind of what it, how it goes about. So not a problem there as we are talking.

47
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:36,680
Anyways, with that being said, why don't we go ahead and start talking about what the hell was trending in the overnight?

48
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,680
Here is one was trending rated R safety show.

49
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,680
Okay. So as we talk about the trends of the ends of the ends,

50
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,680
because that's always going to be an important aspect of everything that we are doing.

51
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,680
No doubt about that whatsoever.

52
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:59,680
So let's talk about this because, Hey, why would we not talk about some of this stuff?

53
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,680
I mean, I don't know. So here's what's on the trend.

54
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:08,680
Another Chinese app steps in for tick tock and a more bad news for LA's mayor.

55
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,680
So we'll talk about that here in a bit.

56
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:18,680
Also, another diddy accuser comes forward and Caitlin clocks to Kate and Clark's stalker is arrested.

57
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,680
We'll talk about that as we get into show business.

58
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:28,680
Yeah. I don't know how Caitlin Clark flies under show business because that's more of a sporting thing.

59
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,680
But we'll, we'll leave it at that for that one.

60
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:39,680
Also in some other news, a sunny Hostin defends her husband and Macy gray is a poor loser.

61
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:46,680
Yeah. I said poor loser. I don't, I don't see the thing here, but we'll talk about that here in a bit.

62
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:52,680
Also conflicting reports for the circumstances of Megan Margol's new shows delay.

63
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,680
And we'll talk about that as we get into the reals.

64
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,680
Yeah. Yeah. The Royals. Yeah. No doubt there.

65
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:05,680
So with that being said, I have some professional broadcasters, not me, because I said professional,

66
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:11,680
professional broadcasters waiting to talk to you about everything that is going on inside of their world.

67
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,680
So if you're ready to go, I'm ready to go.

68
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:21,680
We can bring them in and let them talk their hearts away about everything that is going on in this thing that we call the world.

69
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,680
Cause that's kind of the way that it looks.

70
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:31,680
So let's do that. Let's bring them in right now and let them tell you about what the hell is going on with the news.

71
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:37,680
Here is the news on the Royals safety show from Feature Story News in London.

72
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,680
I'm Oli Barrett. There are growing signs a ceasefire deal in Gaza could soon be agreed.

73
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:47,680
Negotiators are meeting in Qatar on Tuesday to discuss a draft agreement,

74
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:54,680
which the US says would see a gradual release of hostages by Hamas and a phased withdrawal by Israel from parts of Gaza.

75
00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:04,680
It would also allow more aid into the region after months of conflict. Jerusalem based journalist Noga Tarnopolsky says an agreement may be close.

76
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:11,680
At least on the Israeli side, it seems that Israel in the last few days, really two days, three days,

77
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:19,680
has agreed to some compromises that it simply had been kicking around since, it's important to note,

78
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:28,680
since Joe Biden first announced this basic draft of a deal back in May of last year, May 27th of last year.

79
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:35,680
A report found Donald Trump engaged in an unprecedented criminal effort to overturn the 2020 US election results.

80
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:42,680
Special counsel Jack Smith says the incoming president would have been charged if he had not been re-elected in November.

81
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:47,680
Donald Trump says the findings are fake and Jack Smith is deranged.

82
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:52,680
South Korea's military says North Korea has test-fired several short-range missiles.

83
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,680
It comes after South Korea reported Pyongyang launched a missile last week. Rebecca Bundon reports.

84
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:04,680
South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff say the ballistic missiles flew some 250 kilometres

85
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,680
before they landed in the waters between Japan and the Korean Peninsula.

86
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:14,680
It says that it strongly condemns the test. This is the second launch by North Korea this year.

87
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:22,680
After last week, it tested what it said was a new hypersonic intermediate-range missile designed to hit remote targets in the Pacific.

88
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:28,680
There are concerns about North Korea further advancing its technology as it strengthens its ties with Russia.

89
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,680
Rebecca Bundon, Tokyo.

90
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:38,680
India has summoned Bangladesh's acting High Commissioner to stress that its construction of fences in border territories is legal.

91
00:08:38,680 --> 00:08:45,680
Tensions between India and Bangladesh are simmering with Dhaka accusing Delhi of provoking tensions in border areas.

92
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:47,680
Ishan Gurg reports from New Delhi.

93
00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:55,680
India says its construction of fences in the border region is legal and in line with protocols and mutually agreed border agreements.

94
00:08:55,680 --> 00:09:04,680
Dhaka has called these actions unauthorised, signaling the new Mohammed Yunus-led administration in Bangladesh may be reconsidering border pacts with India.

95
00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:14,680
Bangladesh's Home Affairs Advisor in the interim government says the previous Awami League government provided India unequal opportunities to set up defence infrastructure along the border.

96
00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:22,680
India argues it reserves the right to protect its border, especially to counter cross-border crimes and to stem illegal immigrations.

97
00:09:22,680 --> 00:09:30,680
Delhi-Dhaka ties dipped to a new low after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina fled to India last year. Ishan Gurg, New Delhi.

98
00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:34,680
From bureaus worldwide, this is FSN.

99
00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:09,680
We're ahead on January 27th at a time when the Israeli war against Hamas in Gaza is not branded a genocide by the UK.

100
00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:14,680
Karen Pollock is chief executive of the Holocaust Educational Trust.

101
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:25,680
Holocaust Memorial Day, specifically this year, 80 years on since the Holocaust, since the liberation of the camps, is hugely important.

102
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:34,680
We're talking about what was a defining episode in history, six million Jewish men, women and children murdered by the Nazis.

103
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:43,680
It's really disappointing, it's really upsetting when you hear that others are suggesting we boycott such an important day,

104
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:50,680
that somehow this should be broadened out to talk about other events going on today that have nothing to do with the Holocaust.

105
00:10:50,680 --> 00:11:03,680
But the Islamic Human Rights Commission, which is aligned with Iran, argues that failure to recognise Gaza as a site of genocide is tantamount to silence in the face of profound injustice.

106
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:06,680
With FSN Spotlight, I'm Simon Marks.

107
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:11,680
To recap the top stories, there are growing signs a ceasefire deal in Gaza could soon be agreed.

108
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:18,680
Reports found Donald Trump engaged in an unprecedented criminal effort to overturn the 2020 US election results.

109
00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:24,680
He says it's fake. South Korea's military says North Korea's test fired several short-range missiles

110
00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:31,680
and India's summoned Bangladesh's acting High Commissioner to stress its construction of fences in border territories is legal.

111
00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:49,680

147
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:12,680
If you're kind of trying to figure out what the FM portion is, well, we're a radio station and also a podcast network.

148
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:18,680
You can come out, hang out, listen to my show, The Jay Allen Show. You can listen to Todd Conklin with the Pre-Accident Investigation.

149
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:26,680
Blaine Jay Hoffman with Safety Pro. The Hop Nerd. Sam Goodman, just to name a few on what can be found on the station.

150
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:31,680
Different things for different people trying to bring safety in an entertaining form.

151
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:39,680
Safetyfm.com. Go to the website, download the app, and carry it with you all day long. Safetyfm.com. We'll be waiting for you.

152
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:47,680
In order to save the planet from cow farts, why doesn't someone just invent really large Gas X pills?

153
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:53,680
God, what's that awful stench? Radio Big.

154
00:16:53,680 --> 00:17:04,680
Okay, so here we go. Currently 16 minutes past the top of the hour as you and I are hanging out on this lovely, lovely Tuesday.

155
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:12,680
Because that's what it is. That is what it is. It is a lovely day, a lovely Tuesday as we get to do all the stuff.

156
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,680
So let's start talking right away about what the hell is going on.

157
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:22,680
Because I think that that's going to be important. We're just days until the Supreme Court decides the fate.

158
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:32,680
Hold on. Just until days where the Supreme Court decides the fate of Tick Tock. Yeah, I said that.

159
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:41,680
Okay, so a new social media app has rocketed off the top of the app store and it too, its own Chinese, it's owned by its own Chinese company.

160
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:51,680
I am going to butcher this. There is no doubt. Zyaga Shoe. Yeah, Zyaga Shoe offers a familiar interface.

161
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:58,680
Most mainstream social media apps does what the profiles to follow and suggest that interest while the app is new.

162
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:04,680
Having rolled out over or isn't new because it's been rolled out over the last decade ago.

163
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:10,680
It's provided a landing spot for Americans preemptively bailing on Tick Tock.

164
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:15,680
And oh, it translates to a little red book is really what the wording does.

165
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:23,680
So they're just laughing at us now. But for English speakers, a branded red note, which really isn't much better.

166
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:30,680
This is according to the verge. So I guess some options are coming about if you kind of start thinking about it.

167
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,680
I don't know if they're going to be good options, but there will be options.

168
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:41,680
I mean, I understand that some people are very heartbroken about this whole thing when it comes to Tick Tock of it possibly being gone.

169
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,680
But I mean, I don't know. I think that somebody will probably end up stepping into the last moment.

170
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:54,680
And I believe me, I'm not a future predictor at any point, but do you really think bite dance is going to say just shut it down and not try to sell it off to somebody?

171
00:18:54,680 --> 00:19:03,680
I don't know what kind of proprietary technology will be there that they don't want the world to know about because that's going to be the other standpoint of the whole thing.

172
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:09,680
Another pitfall of our society rated our safety show.

173
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:25,680
Okay, so yeah, pitfalling and spitballing. No doubt about that. Police officers pulled a coyote out of a cold food section of an Aldi's, where like some people like to say an Aldi in Chicago.

174
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:34,680
Yeah. On Monday shoppers were shocked to see the large animal hiding behind the shelves, expecting officers to pull out something much smaller.

175
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:42,680
But, but, but such a like a possum or a squirrel, but that was quite not the case when it was all said and done.

176
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:48,680
So yeah, some people were freaky. Yeah, some freaky eekiness when it was all said and done.

177
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:56,680
And yeah, I have to tell you, as I look at this thing,

178
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:09,680
let's see, let's see.

179
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:17,680
They're poking this thing. I mean, of course, if you're on the radio, you're not here. You're not seeing this. They're poking this thing.

180
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:23,680
With. Whoa, this thing's giant. I mean, they're poking this thing.

181
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:34,680
I don't know. I don't even know how they were able to manage to pull it. Cause it's the size of a medium. Like a, let's see, like a laboratory retriever.

182
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:44,680
Yeah. That's probably, that's probably like the average size of what that thing was showing. Yeah. So yeah. Good luck there. Anyways, federal agents were spotted outside Ben Affleck's home over the weekend.

183
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:57,680
Though the reason is why is unclear sources told TMZ that the officers were in the area investigating an incident involving a drone colliding with a fire, with a firefighter aircraft.

184
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:08,680
Affleck was seen outside of his home on Saturday after evacuating last week to ex-wife Jennifer Garner's home to be with their kids is according to TMZ.

185
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:16,680
So there you go. There you go. What else do we got? What else do we got? Beyonce's foundation.

186
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:25,680
Baygood is donating 2.5 million to support Los Angeles wildfires relief efforts, specifically those affected by the Eaton fire.

187
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:38,680
As for why the specific focus on the blaze, insiders say that the Eaton fire hit the Alta Dena historical black neighborhood with a number of black owned businesses destroyed by the inferno.

188
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:50,680
This is according to THR. Elsewhere, David Spade is offering $5,000 to anyone who catches and reports the arsonists in the, in and around LA.

189
00:21:50,680 --> 00:22:01,680
This is according to page six. Now there was something circulating yesterday and the problem is that I was not vetted enough to say if it was true or not.

190
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:13,680
But some are claiming that this was arson. There's a video that it was arson that caused this and some insurance policies.

191
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:21,680
Say that if it's arson related, they do not cover it. So I don't know how true that is, but I'm giving you info that's making the word.

192
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:30,680
So we would have to we have to vet it because it's still just general info. Not sure how true it is. So there you go.

193
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:36,680
Also, the Grammys will for now still take place on February the 2nd at crypto.com arena.

194
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:45,680
Despite the ongoing devastation from the LA wildfires, a host has not been announced by the recording Academy.

195
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:58,680
This is according to Billboard. In other news, the Oscars timeline has been delayed for a second time on a sensitivity for the SoCal community, which is home to about 60% of the roughly 10,000 members.

196
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:11,680
The 97 Academy Award is still set for March the 2nd, but the nomination voting window has been extended from let's see January the 14th to January the 17th nominations will be announced sometime on January the 23rd.

197
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:22,680
Delayed from the previous postponed date of January the 19th. So a lot of stuff going on in that section and you might have noticed that probably over the last few episodes.

198
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:28,680
We've been talking mostly about Hollywood starting off and people go. Well, that's not really why I'm here.

199
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,680
Well, we're starting off there because there's so much stuff that's going on on that section.

200
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:38,680
So that is the reasoning behind it. So just understand that that is the point on why we are starting there.

201
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:45,680
Opposed to starting with, you know, some other major news stories. So just keep that in mind as we are going.

202
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:59,680
Anyway, say listen to this Elon Musk says that a third person has successfully been implanted with Neuralink system, which allows a patient to control control a computer with their mind during an interview at live stream on his own ex account.

203
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:17,680
Musk also says that he hopes to add up with about 30 people for the trials of the system before the end of the year. Well, Musk health or excuse me wealth and fame draw particular attention to Neuralink. There are more than 45 active trials with similar technology currently underway in the United States.

204
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,680
This is according to the New York Post.

205
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:32,680
So if you're familiar or not familiar with Neuralink Neuralink is an implanted chip that goes into the brain and that's how they have you be able to interact with stuff. Now it does promise some very good things in the future.

206
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:42,680
But keep in keep in mind that there's still trials going on. But I want you to think about some other side effects here.

207
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:54,680
I am sure that the majority of the people that have hung out here have taken a listen to are taking a little viewing viewing of one of the Matrix movies or have a general concept of what it is.

208
00:24:54,680 --> 00:25:08,680
If you think about that Jack system that's in the back of their head. I don't know if that's you know the severity of the stuff that we'll get to at some point, but it makes it pretty interesting when you start thinking about the grand picture of stuff.

209
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:14,680
Think about that for a moment. Think about how that would end up working because that's going to be pretty interesting overall.

210
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:23,680
But it's all said and done and me you know maybe I'm thinking too much of the dystopian future stuff. But I mean that's kind of how my brain works sometimes when it comes to some of these things.

211
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:28,680
It would be kind of cool to see some of this stuff. But who knows?

212
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:39,680
So there you go. Anyways discount airline Ryan Air is openly calling for the European Union regulators to limit how much flyers can drink before taking to the skies.

213
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:45,680
Yeah, that would probably be important. While the carrier can cut off passengers on board.

214
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:56,680
They have no say about what happens before the people get on the plane during a flight delays passengers are consuming excess alcohol at the airport without any limits of purchase or consumption.

215
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:13,680
A company rep tells the Manchester Evening News the public gravelling follows a recent incident that required the plane to divert after a drunk passenger grew unruly with a fellow flyer and the flight crew.

216
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:29,680
The itinerary change required Ryan Air to foot the bill of accommodations of 160 passengers plus airport fee adding to over $15,000. The airline is suing the disruptive drunk for the cost.

217
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,680
The man. This is according to the Manchester Evening News.

218
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:40,680
So doesn't that get interesting as we are talking because we had don'ts in that make you think about some stuff.

219
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:54,680
So here in the US if they think that you are too drunk to get on they will not let you on but there you can say let's pour it all on and go from there because you know it's a it's a it's a different thing going on.

220
00:26:54,680 --> 00:27:00,680
I mean I don't know. It makes it pretty interesting. At least it sounds that way as we are talking about it.

221
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:15,680
So think about that for a moment. Okay and some other news the ongoing California wildfires continue to create a political headache for the Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass just last November the LA Fire Chief Kristen Crowley issued a memo to the city's

222
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:34,680
five fire fire fire five fire commissioners who were appointed by Bass that the department lacked manpower to do its job the memo fretted that the fire department's headcount I'm hadn't grown since the 1960s and still use outdated deployment model even without the threat of wildfires

223
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:52,680
the department failed to respond to a call within four minutes of the national standard at 61% of the time over the weekend the memo which had been posted in the city's website was scrubbed was scrubbed another memo still available publicly published in

224
00:27:52,680 --> 00:28:10,680
December 4th warned that the fire department is facing unprecedented operational challenges due to the elimination of critical civilian positions and seven million dollar budget cut the developments came as Bass faces mounting criticism for traveling abroad at the

225
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:29,680
outset of the fires. So what do you think here? I mean it gets pretty interesting so why would the I mean what so the mayor had a plan to leave to travel and then all of a sudden they're gone during this because you know some people are going to have some some

226
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:50,680
hesitation marks because there's no other way to put it in regards to that timeline so as you're looking at this and going through it you have to look at this and go okay this is not good I mean if anything it reminds me when Ted Cruz jumped off to Mexico if you remember correctly during

227
00:28:50,680 --> 00:29:06,680
everything that was going on in Texas when all the electricity was going on because of all the frozen Tundra stuff that was occurring. We at safety FM are not responsible for what this idiot behind the microphone is saying. He is trying to be

228
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:23,680
entertaining. Our safety show tell me what I'm telling lies anyway so let's continue talking actress Leslie Charleston has died she passed away on Sunday after a likely illness according to a friend. Charleston is best known for her role of Monica

229
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:40,680
Guatameen in general hospital she was 79 at the time of her passing also let's see Patrick and Brittany Mahomes are now a family of Cinco the couple welcomed their third child on Sunday a daughter named Golden Ray the newborn Joy and siblings that

230
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:56,680
sister that is three and one that is two so there you go what else do we got going on do we want to talk about the sick bay let's talk about the sick babe Queen Sonja of Norway was hospitalized over the weekend following a ski related incident what ski related

231
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:12,680
incident the 87 year old was taken to the hospital on January the 11th after experiencing a flare up of an existing heart condition while skiing she was d
