0:00

right, let's go. It's Monday,

0:02

March 24th, 2025. Hope

0:05

you had a great weekend. It's first thing with

0:07

Kevin Mano. Super quick look at all the top

0:09

headlines as you start your day and the show

0:11

starts right now. And

0:15

we always start with the top story.

0:17

It's not a good one this morning. The

0:20

health ministry just said that the death toll

0:22

in Gaza has now passed 50 ,000. That

0:25

is how many people have passed away since

0:27

the start of Israel's war with Hamas began

0:29

in October of 2023. It's

0:31

heartbreaking and sadly, as the

0:33

fighting continues, the number is

0:35

still going up. The

0:42

big story from the

0:44

sports world over the weekend was the passing of

0:46

George Foreman. Very sad. One of

0:48

the most iconic boxers of all time. He

0:51

was a two -time heavyweight champion He was

0:53

inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame

0:55

in 2003. He was possibly just

0:57

as well known in more recent years for

0:59

his George Foreman grill. I used to love

1:01

mine. One of my favorite

1:03

facts about him is that he named all

1:05

five of his sons George. According

1:08

to the official statement, he passed

1:10

away Friday surrounded by family. He

1:13

was 76 years old. In

1:15

other sports related news, UFC fighter Conor

1:18

McGregor just announced that he is running

1:20

for president in Ireland. He

1:22

recently visited our president at the White House, and

1:24

now he has launched a bit of his own.

1:27

And lastly here, hey, my

1:30

job is to bring you the news

1:32

and this counts. According to a new

1:34

study, this story's going around, athletes perform

1:36

better after they poop. I

1:39

can't believe they studied this, but

1:41

they did. The people involved completed

1:43

a physically demanding, cognitive task more

1:46

quickly, post defecation. Do

1:48

with that what you will. On

1:52

to some entertainment headlines. First, in relationship

1:54

news, it looks like Jeff Bezos and

1:57

Lauren Sanchez are getting ready for a

1:59

wedding. According to reports, the

2:01

two of them sent out wedding invitations. I

2:03

haven't seen mine yet, but keep an eye

2:05

out. They're supposedly getting married this summer in

2:08

Italy. Weddings are expensive, I hope

2:10

they're saving. Also, Jake Paul is

2:12

engaged. He's marrying an Olympian, a

2:14

Dutch speed skater named Jetta Leerdum.

2:17

In business news, Kim Kardashian

2:19

just consolidated. Her company

2:22

skims acquired skin by Kim. I don't

2:24

actually know if I'm pronouncing you right.

2:26

It's SKK and skin Regardless that means

2:29

her fashion empire and her beauty empire

2:31

are now a singular brand And lastly

2:33

here Drake Bell and Josh Peck just

2:35

had a reunion Drake and Josh together

2:38

again They were Nickelodeon co -stars back

2:40

in the day and this reunion was

2:42

their first time together since that documentary

2:45

quiet on the set premiered a year

2:47

ago. It was dark stuff Drake just

2:49

recorded an interview for Josh's podcast. Good

2:51

guys, which is out today. Move

2:57

and on to movie and TV news.

2:59

It's Monday morning, so we'll take a

3:01

quick look at the box office. Disney's

3:04

new live action Snow White was number

3:06

one, but it didn't do great. It

3:08

brought in $45 million over the weekend.

3:10

It's enough for the top spot for

3:13

sure, but it was the lowest domestic

3:15

debut for a Disney live action remake.

3:17

Black bag was second and Captain America

3:20

brave new world was third Also, this

3:22

isn't really movie news, but I mentioned

3:24

Disney so I'll do this here There

3:26

was a fire at Walt Disney World

3:29

over the weekend at Epcot Center The

3:31

ratatouille ride had to be evacuated. No

3:33

injuries were reported. Thankfully This is why

3:35

you shouldn't let a rat cook guys.

3:38

It's dangerous It's a ratatouille

3:40

joke. Last night, Conan O 'Brien received

3:42

the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

3:44

It's a high honor. There were tons

3:46

of comedians there for it. John Mulaney,

3:48

Sarah Silverman, Kumail Nanjiani, Stephen Colbert, Nikki

3:50

Glaser, they were all a part of

3:52

the show. The ceremony will

3:55

be on Netflix May 4th. In

3:57

TV news, this was inevitable, but

3:59

as Apple TV Plus dropped the

4:01

severance second season finale, they announced

4:04

its renewal. Season three

4:06

is coming. And Ben Stiller, the

4:08

guy behind the camera, he promised it will

4:10

not take another three years to get the

4:12

next season. And by the way, fans seem

4:14

to be torn about the finale, how it

4:16

ended. I personally loved it. Can't wait for

4:18

season three. This is

4:20

such a strange story, but the full

4:22

original 16 -minute pilot for the show

4:24

Family Guy was apparently lost to just

4:26

lost media. Never to be seen again,

4:28

but a dark web user, however this

4:30

works, was able to find it somewhere.

4:32

So now the whole thing is back

4:34

on. 16 minutes. It was

4:36

made in 1998 and it looks very

4:39

old, very cheap. It's out there now

4:41

if you want to see it. Lastly

4:43

tonight on our television's ABC has the

4:46

29th season finale of The Bachelor. What's

4:49

Grant Ellis gonna do? On

4:51

TBS, it's the 19th season finale

4:54

of American Dad. What's Roger gonna

4:56

do? Also, The Voice is new

4:58

on NBC. What's Michael Buble gonna

5:01

do? And now, let's enjoy an

5:03

intermission. This

5:06

show was supported by Nandaka, the coffee

5:08

alternative that changes everything. The company behind

5:10

it is peak. P -I -Q -U

5:12

-E again Nandaka is the coffee alternative

5:14

that I've fallen in love with. I

5:16

like the thing that attracted me to

5:19

it is that it's made with pure

5:21

clean ingredients. There's no fillers, no preservatives,

5:23

no junk, just the best of the

5:25

best. I had some health stuff earlier

5:27

this year and I've really been trying

5:30

to live a lot cleaner so this

5:32

was just the perfect time for me

5:34

to find this. Unlike a lot of

5:36

other, quote, mushroom coffees, this one actually

5:38

uses real functional mushrooms. Some of them

5:41

just use like grain powder, but Nandaka

5:43

is made with 100 % fruiting body

5:45

mushrooms. That's the part that

5:47

actually has the powerful compounds that support

5:49

energy, focus, and longevity. It's great, I

5:51

can't say enough good things about it.

6:13

I'm amused. Sick. Justin Bieber has

6:15

been trending since posting some cryptic

6:18

messages. about anger issues.

6:29

Speaking of social media, Taylor Swift

6:31

just broke her 100 -day Instagram

6:34

silence for a post praising her

6:36

friends Selena Gomez. She

6:38

tagged Selena and Benny Blanco and told them how

6:40

much she loves their new album. In

6:43

other new music news, we just found

6:45

out that Morgan Wallen's upcoming album, I'm

6:47

the Problem, will have 37 tracks on

6:49

it. 37. He's already really seven of

6:51

them, so 30 to go. In

6:54

tour news, the Jonas Brothers just announced

6:57

a big one, their 20th anniversary stadium

6:59

tour. They're gonna have Marshmallow out

7:01

on the road with them, as well as

7:03

the all -American rejects and boys -like girls.

7:05

That's an unexpected lineup. August through

7:08

November, they're gonna be busy. I'll post

7:10

those dates up in our Instagram stories

7:12

if you wanna catch the Jonas Brothers.

7:15

Lastly, it seems KISS are

7:17

planning an unmasked show in

7:19

Vegas. No makeup, a

7:21

surprise show, not really a surprise at

7:24

this point, but planning it for November

7:26

14th at Virgin Hotels in Vegas. Some

7:31

additional headlines here on this Monday morning.

7:33

Pope Francis was discharged from the hospital

7:35

yesterday. He had been in there for

7:38

over a month and he's back on

7:40

the streets. He'd been battling a chronic

7:42

lung disease. He was admitted to a

7:44

Rome hospital on Valentine's Day diagnosed with

7:46

double pneumonia. It's been quite a road

7:48

to recovery, but 88 year old Pope

7:51

Francis is finally doing better. Back

7:53

here in the States, it was

7:55

announced on Friday that the Trump

7:58

administration is revoking temporary legal status

8:00

for more than 530 ,000 Cubans,

8:02

Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans, people that

8:04

arrived in the US through Biden

8:06

-era temporary parole programs. Also,

8:09

Venezuela just reached another deal with us

8:11

to take more deportation flights. There was

8:13

a flight yesterday, actually, which is now

8:16

the fifth flight of migrants to arrive

8:18

in Venezuela since Trump took office. In

8:21

completely unrelated news, I'm no conspiracy

8:23

theorist, but there seems to be

8:25

something going on with the pyramids

8:27

right now in Egypt. This story's all

8:29

over the place. According to some

8:31

scientists, they say they used radar

8:34

pulses to create an image of what's under

8:36

the pyramids, and they found a whole vast

8:38

city down there, all connected. But

8:40

a lot of other people say that's

8:43

fake. They say these claims have not

8:45

been independently peer reviewed, so people are

8:47

arguing as they do. In

8:49

travel news, a man is suing United

8:51

Airlines. He's claiming that he was having

8:53

some trouble in the bathroom. He was

8:55

trying to go, but after about 30

8:57

minutes, the flight crew, they

8:59

were demanding that he come out. He

9:01

said, the pilot actually broke the lock

9:04

on the door and pulled him out

9:06

while his pants were around his ankles.

9:09

The passenger's pants, not the pilot's pants. Anyway,

9:11

this guy was handcuffed and escorted off the

9:13

plane when it landed in Houston, and now

9:15

he is suing. Lastly

9:17

here, I always end the show with something

9:20

positive. We need the good news. I have

9:22

seen stories exactly like this before, but I

9:24

love them every single time. And it's a

9:26

good reminder for all of us to know

9:28

how to react in an emergency. A nine

9:31

-year -old boy in North Carolina just saved

9:33

his friend's life. Jayceon is his name. He

9:35

was at recess, mined in his

9:37

own business. When he saw a friend of his take

9:39

a bite of a granola bar and immediately start choking,

9:42

Jayceon jumped into action, and he

9:44

performed the Heimlich maneuver. Again, he's

9:46

nine years old. How did he

9:48

know the Heimlich? YouTube. He

9:50

said he saw it in a video. That's amazing. I

9:53

guess the internet is not all bad. Thanks,

9:55

YouTube, really. I mean, that's cool. And I want

9:57

to get his full name out there because he's

9:59

a nine -year -old hero, Jayceon Branch

10:01

saved His Buddy's life. great

10:04

work, the show is

10:06

over now. The show is over now.

10:08

Okay, all right. let's go.

10:10

First full week spring starts

10:12

now. I hope it was a

10:14

nice weekend for you. Thank you for being here

10:16

today. Let's do this again tomorrow. Make it a

10:18

great week, alright? Please your

10:20

friends about this show.
