Something here no longer feels the same

3
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000
The two of you were trying to hide

4
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,000
In the shade of a tree on the other side

5
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Darkness could never hide

6
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
The beauty from my eyes

20
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,000
With your host, Doctor...

00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
It doesn't matter who the host is

22
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,000
Oh, you so know it

23
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,000
That it does not matter who the host is

24
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Or whatever that Dooley Hopper thingy

25
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,000
That we were just talking about

26
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,000
What's going on

27
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,000
Okay, so anyways, today is Wednesday

28
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Which is also known here as Whip-Em-Out Wednesday

29
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,000
January the 22nd of 2025

30
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
It is day 22 of the year

31
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
And only 343 days left to go

32
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000
We are broadcasting from the Safety FM studios

33
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,000
In Orlando, Florida

34
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,000
And coming across the multiverse known as Safety FM

35
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,000
And hanging out with our friends and colleagues over there

36
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Yep, so a lot of stuff going on inside of the world of the multiverse

37
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000
And we'll get into all that stuff in just a moment

38
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:14,000
But man, has it been an interesting 24 since we last got to hang out

39
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
No doubto-ado there

40
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,000
So a lot of stuff going on inside of the multi

41
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,000
As you are hanging out, and I am hanging out

42
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000
And we're talking about everything going on

43
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Let's talk a little bit about the show

44
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,000
The show consists of Safety in the News, News and Safety

45
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,000
It's kind of the overall theme

46
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Thematic theme of what we have going on

47
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000
And then we kind of take some deep dives into some other malarkey

48
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,000
And then we have some

49
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000
Let's see, how would I word it?

50
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Professional broadcasters come in to give you some new stuff

51
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
So if you want to interact with everything that's going on

52
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,000
All you have to do is go to callinradio.com

53
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,000
That's callinradio.com

54
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Once you get there, there will be all kinds of information related to

55
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Text messaging, video messaging, and even audio messaging

56
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Depending on how you want to do the layout of the land

57
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,000
That's kind of how it goes there

58
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
So a lot of stuff, little time

59
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000
It's the way the sequence always goes around here

60
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:20,000
So with that being said, let's start talking about what the hell was trending

61
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Okay, so as I take a look at the trends of the end of the end

62
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,000
Noteworthy and notable Instagram base

63
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
Top dollar for influencers and a creepy bug discovery

64
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000
We'll get into that here in a moment

65
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Also, Justin Bieber gets hacked

66
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000
And Colleen Hoover gets pulled into its ends with us

67
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
Legal drama, oh lord

68
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000
We'll talk about that as we get into showbiz

69
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000
And also Trevor Noah will host the Grammys this year

70
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000
We'll talk about that as we get into casting

71
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000
And then what else, what else, what else do I have here?

72
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:57,000
Last minute maneuvers delay the start of Prince Harry's latest trial

73
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,000
We'll talk about that in the Royals

74
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,000
So let me tell you this one before we drop into some other news

75
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Amid the legal hurdles facing TikTok, its major competitor, Instagram

76
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Wants to steal some of the Chinese spy influencers or at least the top influencers

77
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Instagram parent company Metta has reportedly offered top Tic Tac accounts

78
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
Or Tic Tac Tic Tac accounts

79
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:27,000
Let's see, $50,000 to post their videos on Instagram before they go live anywhere else

80
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,000
This is according to Mashable

81
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Meanwhile, Tic Tac enthusiasts who deleted the app in frustration when it went dark over the weekend

82
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Are reportedly flustered

83
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,000
It remains unavailable for a download in the app marketplace

84
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,000
The law banning the app which specifically restricts distributing its content

85
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,000
Remain in effect as President Donald Trump negotiates a new deal

86
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000
That includes American ownership

87
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
So there you go

88
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Don't know why you would have deleted it

89
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,000
Because it takes a moment in time before anything else happens

90
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,000
So there you go

91
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,000
What else?

92
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:09,000
An analyst of password data by tech NEIP shows the most commonly used and therefore at least secure passwords

93
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000
The worst three are numeric strings

94
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:17,000
123456, then 123456789, and 12345

95
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,000
So there you go

96
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Then the obvious password is the fourth spot of alphabetic strings

97
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:27,000
And query is the fifth and the sixth letter in typical keyboard

98
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
So farther down the list people get a little bit more creative

99
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Secret comes in at number nine, I love you at 18

100
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Dragon and monkey at 20 and 21 respectively

101
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,000
And the weird one, Tinkle comes in at 29

102
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:44,000
And if you were wondering also fuck you rolls into number 60

103
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:50,000
And you had to fill in the letters just in case if you're not 100% sure on what I was talking about

104
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:56,000
So with that being said let's go ahead and throw it down to our people in feature stories news

105
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,000
And let them start talking about what the hell's going on

106
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,000
Here is the news on the raising of our safety show

107
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000
From Feature Story News in London, I'm Oli Barrett

108
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:12,000
US President Donald Trump says his threat to hit China with 10% tariffs on all imports is still on the table

109
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,000
And could come as soon as next month

110
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Chinese Vice Premier Deng Shishang has told the annual World Economic Forum in Davos that China will expand its imports

111
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Saying the country doesn't seek a trade surplus

112
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Laura Westbrook reports from Hong Kong

113
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:35,000
Donald Trump said during an event at the White House that he was still considering putting a 10% tariff on imports from China on February the 1st

114
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:45,000
That repeats the threat he made on the campaign trail to impose an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods unless Beijing does more to stop the flow of the drug fentanyl

115
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Trump campaigned on a promise to implement 60% tariffs for all goods imported from China

116
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,000
On Monday Trump ordered an investigation into Chinese trade practices but held off on announcing any new tariffs

117
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Laura Westbrook, Hong Kong

118
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:07,000
President Trump has announced billions of dollars in private sector investment to construct artificial intelligence infrastructure in the US

119
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:14,000
He's unveiled a joint venture called Stargate, which he's calling the largest AI infrastructure project in history

120
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Benji Hire reports from Washington

121
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:24,000
President Trump says he wants to keep artificial intelligence in America, citing China as a competitor in the AI space

122
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,000
He was flanked by the heads of OpenAI, SoftBank and Oracle

123
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Those tech companies want to commit $500 billion into the project over the next four years

124
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:45,000
Stargate, according to Mr Trump, will build the physical and virtual infrastructure to power the next generation of AI, including data centers, one of which is already under construction

125
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,000
Benji Hire, Washington

126
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:56,000
Japan plans to continue to boost its defence capabilities amid the security challenges in East Asia, the country's foreign minister has told his US counterpart

127
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Donald Trump's return as president has triggered expectations the US will pressure allies to increase defence spending, as Rebecca Bundon reports from Tokyo

128
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:24,000
Japan is strengthening its defence amid concerns about China's expanding military and North Korea, which is nuclear armed. Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaiya met Trump's Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz in Washington on Tuesday

129
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:39,000
A foreign ministry spokesperson from Japan said that Iwaiya told Rubio and Waltz that Japan had no option but to continue increasing defence capabilities because of the security situation, Rebecca Bundon, Tokyo

130
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Almost 2,500 aid trucks have now entered Gaza as the agreed ceasefire between Israel and Hamas enters its fourth day

131
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:52,000
Further Israeli hostages are set to be freed on Saturday and returned for dozens more Palestinian prisoners

132
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:57,000
More humanitarian aid for Palestinians was also among the conditions set

133
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:25,000
From bureaus worldwide, this is FSN

134
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Laura has been appointed to the role by Haas, an American licensed team. She will work with its new signing driver Esteban Okon

135
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:40,000
Helena Hicks is the founder and editor in chief of Females in Motorsports

136
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:48,000
I can't believe it's taken decades and decades of Formula One in order for there to be a female race engineer, but here we are

137
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Laura comes with such good credentials, she's been at Haas Formula One team for a number of years now

138
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:00,000
And she really is the perfect match for Esteban Okon, who is such a determined character, so really looking forward to the season ahead

139
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,000
And what about getting women into the driving seat for Formula One races?

140
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:10,000
I think we're still a way away and that's OK. If we want actual change, that's not going to happen overnight

141
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:20,000
We last had a Formula One driver start the race, that was a woman in the 70s, and a quick fat few, there have been more women in space than have raced in Formula One

142
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:29,000
She thinks that situation will eventually be turned around and that the appointment of this first female F1 race engineer is a big step in the right direction

143
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,000
With FSN Spotlight, I'm Simon Marks

144
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:38,000
To recap the top stories, US President Trump says his threat to hit China with 10% tariffs is still on the table

145
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,000
President Trump's announced billions of dollars in private sector investment in AI infrastructure

146
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Japan plans to continue to boost its defence capabilities amid security challenges in East Asia

147
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:56,000
And almost 2,500 aid trucks have entered Gaza as the agreed ceasefire between Israel and Hamas enters its fourth day

148
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:13,000

You are listening to a Radio God. What? This has to be an error, that host is not a Radio God

156
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:37,000
Anyways, this is the Rated R Safety Show on Safety FM

157
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:50,000
It's always amazing to me on how technology changes and so does the environment that we're in and cyber criminals will do everything they can to take advantage of a system

158
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,000
If you don't own a home, you have nothing to fear about what I'm about to tell you

159
00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:02,000
But if you own a home like me and you don't guard it with home title lock, you're inviting home title fraud

160
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:12,000
One of the fastest growing crimes, cyber thieves around the world know our home values are sky high at the moment and that makes us a target

161
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,000
The crime is scary simple, let me explain it to you real quick

162
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:23,000
A cyber thief simply forges your name on a property cell form and refiles it, that's it

163
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:29,000
Now he or she is on the deed of your home and you have no idea that you're a victim

164
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:35,000
Then the version takes out a loan on your home and vanishes, leaving you to prove to the police that you didn't commit bank fraud

165
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Home title locks put a virtual barrier around your home title

166
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:46,000
The instant they detect any kind of tampering or anybody messing around, they help shut it down

167
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,000
Look, if you have equity in your home, you need to guard it the best way that you can

168
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,000
Some people might even go as far as guarding it with their life

169
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:59,000
Go to hometitlelock.com and register your address to see if you already are a victim

170
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:07,000
And enter the code RADIO, that's R-A-D-I-O, that's the code RADIO for 30 days free of protection

171
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,000
That's code RADIO at hometitlelock.com

172
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Safety never sounded so terrible, rated R safety show

173
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:24,000
It's a new year but it's feeling harder than ever to find and hire qualified people you need, especially for small businesses

174
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:33,000
That's where LinkedIn Job comes in, they make it easier to find people you want to talk to, faster and for free

Then use the simple tools on LinkedIn Jobs to quickly filter and prioritize who you'd like to interview and hire

00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:09,000
It's why small businesses rate LinkedIn Jobs number one in delivering qualified hires versus leading competitors

180

I have to tell you that we have used LinkedIn Jobs to even find some of the people that we have here at Safety FM

00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,000
The Rated R Safety Show on Safety FM

188
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Oh yes, Rated R Safety Show, Safety FM, radio big, we're hanging out 17 minutes past the top of the hour

189
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:09,000
Doing our lovely thing that we get to do this morning or depending what time of the day you're taking a listen to this

190
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,000
I can only tell you what we're doing it in real time

191
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:17,000
Yep, that's where that seven o'clock hour in the Eastern Standard Time just in case if you were wondering

192
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:21,000
So I guess 4 a.m. if you're out in the West Coast, I know, sorry about that

193
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:29,000
Okay, so let's continue talking, this year's Golden Raspberry Awards nominees better known as the Razzie's were announced on Tuesdays

194
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:37,000
Worst picture nominee include the new Joker movie, Madame Web, Boaterlines, Megalopolis, or Megalopolis

195
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:45,000
Something like that, and Reagan, Jerry Seinfeld picked up the nomination for starring in the role of unfrosted

196
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,000
And the Oscar winner, Cate Blanchett for her role in Borderlands, so there you go

197
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:55,000
Some stuff to talk about, also Cheney Tatum is rumored to be on the top of Jennifer's

198
00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:02,000
Lepus list of eligible bachelors and now she is officially divorced from Ben Affleck

199
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Radar Online reports that JLo has been asking her friends for some eligible men to date

200
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:15,000
For those who know both Jen and Channing, this relationship seems quite natural the insiders say

201
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Not only they look amazing together, but they should delve into their values of genuine connection

202
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Tatum was dealing with heartbreak recently ending an engagement to Zoe Krafitz, so stay tuned

203
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:31,000
Yeah, what a cluster there

204
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:37,000
So what else do we have? What else? Trevor Noah will host the 67th Annual Grammy Awards

205
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:43,000
Marking his fifth consecutive year, the former Daily Show host will serve as the producer of the show as well

206
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:52,000
The ceremony will air from LA at Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, February the 2nd just in case

207
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:57,000
So there you go, also what else do we got going on? Let's take a look

208
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Archaeologists exploring the ancient burial site of Dorset, a county in the southwest of England

209
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:10,000
Believe that they found the female centric society, the researchers created a complex

210
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Multi-generational family tree by analyzing the DNA of burial sites of the remains

211
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:25,000
The families were all traced back to a common female ancestor, but the men had no common connection whatsoever

212
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000
So I guess that's very interesting

213
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:34,000
Okay, one of the researchers says, and this tells us that husbands moved to join their wives communities upon marriage

214
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,000
Where the land potentially passed down through the female line

215
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:45,000
The development marks the first time that such system has been documented in the European prehistory

216
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:52,000
This is according to art news, art news I tell ya, art news

217
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,000
I'm just telling you the stuff that comes up, so there you go

218
00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:02,000
Also, Ryan Corbett has been freed from the captivity of Afghanistan more than two years

219
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,000
Since he was arrested, yeah, two years since he was arrested

220
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:15,000
So Corbett ran an organization, let's see, in Bloom, Afghanistan

221
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Funded by non-governmental organizations to help Afghans stay and run small businesses

222
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:28,000
During a routine visit in August of 2022, the Taliban arrested Corbett

223
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,000
He was not and has never was charged with a crime

224
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:39,000
Though the Taliban said that they were investigating him for espionage and preaching Christianity

225
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Which is illegal in the state, so there you go, some stuff going on there

226
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:51,000
Also, the secure release of government, the US government swapped drug pins

227
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:57,000
And arms dealer who had been in prison in California since 2008

228
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,000
So there you go, some stuff there also

229
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,000
In a statement posted online, Corbett's family said that today

230
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Our hearts are filled with overwhelming gratitude and praise to God

231
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:14,000
Sustaining the Ryan's life and bringing him back home from where he has been most challenging

232
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:19,000
In uncertain 894 days of our life, so there you go

233
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Lotta stuff right there as we are talking

234
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:28,000
I mean, glad for the person to be back, no doubt there

235
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:35,000
Anyways, a new super giant sea bug discovered in South China Sea has been named baby anonymous

236
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:42,000
Vajiri, after the iconic Star Wars villain Darth Valor, because it sounds nothing like that

237
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Researchers selected the name after noticing a resemblance between the head of the helmet worn by Darth Vader

238
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:54,000
The bug is unique in most measures, less than one inch in length

239
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:02,000
While the bee valdari is over a foot in length and weighs more than two pounds

240
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:08,000
There are currently 11 known super giants and nine giants, so there you go

241
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,000
I mean, I guess that's important

242
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,000
What else do we have? Actor Francisco Cian Martin has died

243
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,000
He was found by police at his home in Los Angeles on January the 16th

244
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:24,000
The LA County Coroner's Office confirmed the cause of death was suicide by hanging

245
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:30,000
Martin, best known for his role of Dario Hernandez in Days of Our Life

246
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,000
He was 39 at the time of his passing

247
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,000
So some stuff going on right there

248
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:41,000
So, you know, as you are aware, we will talk real quick

249
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:49,000
So you did notice that the tech billionaires were in town in DC since the inauguration

250
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,000
You know, they're all there because this is the time the grant money gets handed out

251
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Where all the new grants will be readily available if you want to talk about it

252
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,000
But maybe that's, you know, maybe that's that economy that we're not supposed to talk about

253
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:09,000
But anyways, President Donald Trump announced a massive investment into artificial intelligence technology on Tuesday

254
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:17,000
OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank are forming a $500 billion joint venture called

255
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,000
What is it? Stargate. This is StarBank, but it's Stargate

256
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:27,000
To build staff to manage and centers around the physical campuses to manage the technology

257
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Oracle founder, well, founder said he hopes that rapid development of AI

258
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:39,000
And will help develop breakthrough resources for rapidly curing diseases and cancer

259
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:47,000
Worth noting, Opien AI CEO had had an ongoing beef with Elon Musk, who was early investor on OpenAI

260
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,000
Meanwhile, Trump said that on Friday he'll visit areas in North Carolina

261
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Still recovering from last year's deadly disastrous hurricane before visiting Los Angeles

262
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,000
For the inspection of the fires

263
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,000
So we'll see what happens there over the next few days

264
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:09,000
What else do we got? OK, Marco Rubio is now the official United States Secretary of State

265
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:17,000
After being sworn in by Vice President J.D. Vance early Tuesday morning in the line of President Trump's foreign policy directives

266
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Rubio said that all foreign policies will be shaped to make United States stronger, safer and more prosperous

267
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:29,000
It doesn't do one of those three things. We will not do it, he said

268
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:35,000
Worth noting while the cabinet secretaries and actually all executive appointees officially take a formal oath

269
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,000
There is no legal requirement who needs to administer it

270
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,000
So there you go

271
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:47,000
So the confirmation hearing for nominees to be heard by Veteran Affairs and Agriculture Department offers

272
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Office of Management and Budget and ambassadors to the UN

273
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:58,000
To the retrospective Senate committees, votes of advanced cabinet nominees who attend confirmation hearings

274
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000
At the committee level are expected throughout the week

275
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,000
So a lot of stuff going on

276
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:10,000
I mean, the transition weeks are always interesting as we start talking about them

277
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,000
Because you never know what's going to happen

278
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,000
You never know if somebody's going to be like, we don't agree with this appointee

279
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000
He's not vetted properly, she's not vetted properly

280
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:25,000
I mean, there were some questions coming up yesterday that I was looking at going, what the hell is going on, man?

281
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:31,000
A lot of strange things inside of our multiverse as we are talking

282
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,000
So now we're down there

283
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,000
Okay, so let's talk real quick about the numbers

284
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:41,000
The Dow gained 537 points on Tuesday

285
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:48,000
To close at 44,025, the S&P increased by 52 points to close at 6,049

286
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:54,000
And the Nasdaq increased by 126 points to close at 19,756

287
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,000
So let's get going

288
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:03,000
West Texas intermediate closed at $76 a barrel and Brent crude was at $79 a barrel

289
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,000
The national average price of a gallon of gas was $3.12 on Tuesday

290
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,000
Hold on, weren't we told the gas prices would go down? Okay, I'm just saying

291
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:17,000
Also, Bitcoin gained on Tuesday trading around $106,000

292
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,000
So yeah, some moolah there

293
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:30,000
Also, tonight's Powerball drawing will be for $31 million jackpot or $13.8 million cash payout

294
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,000
So there you go, some stuff to go into

295
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:40,000
So let me reference this because I see this coming up on this other side here

296
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,000
Why the references to Hollywood and all this other stuff outside?

297
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,000
Because we tried to talk about pop culture thingies

298
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,000
Yeah, let me say that one more time

299
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,000
Pop culture thingies

300
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,000
That way people have other things to talk about that's just not safety

301
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,000
Because here's what happens

302
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:04,000
I would imagine that most of you are, we'll say subject matter experts

303
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,000
In regards of safety

304
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,000
We talk about some main story portions on safety

305
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,000
The whole show's not related around safety

306
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,000
The reason behind it is because we want to make sure that we're covering a little bit of everything

307
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,000
That way you have starting points to talk about

308
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,000
I'll tell you yesterday I had a weird thing

309
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,000
I have a, what we'll call a friend of mine

310
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:29,000
Reached out and said, hey, can I put you down as a reference

311
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,000
For a job that I'm applying for

312
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Sure, not a problem, we've worked together, we've worked together for many years

313
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:40,000
And reall
