00:00:01
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ.
00:00:02
Speaker 2: An iHeartRadio podcast.
00:00:05
Speaker 3: Hey there, everybody, and welcome to your Monday Morning Run.
00:00:10
Speaker 2: It's Monday, November 2nd. I'm Amy Robach.
00:00:13
Speaker 1: And I'm TJ Holmes. Say it again, Robes. November 2nd. It means our long, national, miserable nightmare is almost over. Midterms.
00:00:21
Speaker 3: Oh, I was thinking it meant that the marathon was done and we have a finisher sitting down.
00:00:29
Speaker 2: Next to me.
00:00:29
Speaker 1: Congratulations, baby. Thank you.
00:00:33
Speaker 2: It was a big, big deal that you crossed that finish line.
00:00:36
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the thing on my mind most is midterms. I'm kidding.
00:00:41
Speaker 2: No.
00:00:42
Speaker 1: Great day in New York. Great weather.
00:00:44
Speaker 2: It was amazing.
00:00:45
Speaker 1: It was fantastic. Thank you to the city, as always, for turning out and supporting all those runners. It was a wonderful day. Anybody keeping up with us here know I had some foot struggles and It was a rough. We can get into it. We will get into it later, maybe somewhere on the feed. But yes, got the medal.
00:01:00
Speaker 2: Beautiful.
00:01:01
Speaker 1: Gold. 50 years of the same route. It was a big, big, big day.
00:01:04
Speaker 2: It was so fun.
00:01:05
Speaker 3: This was my first time spectating, and it was fun cheering you on. But yes, I actually even have more respect for all the friends and family members and just... And just residents who just come out and cheer on people who have spent the last five months training for something that most people will never even consider attempting.
00:01:24
Speaker 2: And watching people cross the finish line, we had a great spot.
00:01:27
Speaker 3: New York Roadrunners, amazing organization, gave us, gave Nikki and I, my best friend and I, because her boyfriend Chris was running, these incredible viewpoints to watch people cross the finish line. If you can't get inspired by seeing people accomplish something they didn't think was possible, and you can see it on so many people's faces.
00:01:46
Speaker 2: It's just a beautiful reminder of what is possible.
00:01:49
Speaker 1: Best day in New York every single year. If you ever get a chance to come to New York for the marathon just to be a spectator, you should do it. So once again, New York showed out yesterday. So wherever you may be this morning, hope you are getting off to a good start. Hope you had a safe Halloween weekend. Robes, it was a scary one, a deadly one, a violent one, several shootings that we will tell you about. But yes, on this morning run, we'll make stops in Palm Springs, in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Birmingham, Alabama, Fairfield, California, Oberlin, Ohio. We'll also make a stop at the Reflecting Pool in D.C. We'll also swing by Martha Stewart's house. And, of course, we'll make another stop in the streets of New York. Yes, I finished, but you did have some winners, and it was really close at the end for us. The two that won in the men's and women's division have some pretty cool stories. So we'll get into that in a moment. But yes, we do have to start robed what the actual hell is going on. Shootings, mass shootings connected to football games. This is awful.
00:02:47
Speaker 3: Next up on the run, yes, we begin with a 19-year-old woman who is dead and another eight people who were injured in a mass shooting outside a football game in Alabama. The game was the annual Magic City Classic. It's a rivalry game.
00:03:01
Speaker 2: Game between Alabama State and Alabama A & M that draws huge crowds. It's been played for a hundred years.
00:03:09
Speaker 3: Yes.
00:03:09
Speaker 2: And this happens.
00:03:10
Speaker 1: Robes, the game drew some 70,000 spectators. It's one of the most attended games, HBCU games, every single year. Robes, it was just last week or the weekend before. That was a shooting outside of an HBCU game as well. But on this one, police say most people had dispersed after this game when the shooting happened, but they have not released a A lot of details. They haven't released a possible motive, but they do have at least one person in custody. Let's turn now, next up on the run, Robes, we go to a place we are very familiar with, not just Fayetteville, Arkansas, but where this shooting happened. At least six people injured in a shooting after the University of Arkansas' homecoming game. And, Robes, you cannot have a shooting in a more crowded place in this particular moment after a game.
00:03:54
Speaker 3: Well, this is frightening stuff. As you mentioned, obviously, we love... Fayetteville, Arkansas. We go back at least once a year, usually more, to see a game. And this happened on Dixon Street. This is an idyllic college town street lined with shops and restaurants and bars. It literally is like a Norman Rockwell version of... of a college town. Like that is how I would describe Fayetteville, Arkansas and specifically Dixon Street. It's the most bustling and festive street in all of Fayetteville, especially after a game. And police believe that this was a targeted incident that happened after a specific altercation, but they haven't gotten any details and no one's been arrested.
00:04:39
Speaker 1: And everybody knows, think of any college town you know, when everybody gets done with a game, they spill out into whatever area. Dixon Street is a long stretch of that, and you cannot get busier than after a football game.
00:04:51
Speaker 2: We just did this a couple weeks ago.
00:04:52
Speaker 1: We just were there in September. So, again, no motive in that one, and at least no one arrested Dixon. There, we do want to turn now to California, in particular Fairfield, California. This was on Saturday night. Robes, a pregnant woman was killed. And they say this woman is actually a mother of four. And she was expecting, killed at of all places, on Halloween night at a Spirit Halloween store. A gunman, according to police, Robes, opened fire as people were shopping. for last minute Halloween stuff.
00:05:22
Speaker 2: To think about this mom who's pregnant.
00:05:25
Speaker 1: You know what she was doing there.
00:05:26
Speaker 2: Probably getting some last... You know.
00:05:27
Speaker 1: Exactly what she was doing.
00:05:27
Speaker 2: I actually want to just start crying right now. She was probably getting a last minute thing for her kid who was missing something from a Halloween costume.
00:05:36
Speaker 3: She was being a good mom and just... My God, this is awful. At least six others were injured in this mass shooting and three of them are in critical condition as of this recording. Police have not identified a suspect. Believe once again... that this was a targeted attack.
00:05:52
Speaker 1: Well, we've seen the last several mass shootings, people were shot that had nothing to do with some altercation.
00:05:59
Speaker 2: Right.
00:06:00
Speaker 1: Where you've seen plenty where people just go in and want to do damage and shoot people up. It hasn't been the case on several of these lately.
00:06:05
Speaker 2: No, they've been going after someone.
00:06:07
Speaker 1: And bystanders are getting hit in this stuff. We continue now on The Run. Nine people were killed in a plane crash in Florida yesterday, all aboard a business jet that had taken off from Austin. They were actually heading to the Bahamas, but something went wrong and they crashed around one o'clock in Palm Springs and Robes. Yes, obviously the NTSB is investigating the video of there is video. of the exact moment of impact. I've never seen anything quite like this.
00:06:42
Speaker 3: You told me you need to watch this just to fully understand the scope of this story.
00:06:48
Speaker 2: But, yes, as you mentioned, it happened around 1 o'clock.
00:06:52
Speaker 3: It almost looks like you were describing it as a guided missile, like a targeted attack. You would think that you were looking at something happening in Ukraine.
00:07:01
Speaker 2: I mean, you would not think this was a plane. You couldn't even see the plane. It happened so fast.
00:07:06
Speaker 1: But it did a nosedive. It was nothing. There was zero control of this aircraft.
00:07:11
Speaker 2: And it's so weird to know that it happened not at takeoff, not at landing.
00:07:16
Speaker 1: Well into the trip. Almost over. They were almost.
00:07:19
Speaker 2: To the Bahamas.
00:07:20
Speaker 3: They were getting close to the Bahamas, obviously, in Palm Springs. To think that that happened midair for whatever reason, they have a lot of investigating to do.
00:07:29
Speaker 1: All right. We're going to turn now to some politics. President's finished with his rallies. He's done traveling all around. but he's going to do one more speech today. It's going to be his closing argument that the president is going to make. It's going to be 2 o'clock today in D.C. Robes, what would be the perfect place to do your closing argument on the midterms?
00:07:51
Speaker 3: I mean, he thinks, I think it might be a little strange, but he thinks the perfect place to do it would be at the reflecting pool. I guess it's finally refinished after all those damn vandals did their Oh, wait.
00:08:06
Speaker 2: Or was it shoddy construction work? Oh, wait. No, it was definitely vandals.
00:08:10
Speaker 1: Ask Jeanine Pirro. Ask her. Yes.
00:08:14
Speaker 3: Or anyone who has a brain cell. But anyway, he's probably going to say, look what we did. Despite what they did to us, we shall overcome. And we will do the same on Tuesday when you go to the balance.
00:08:27
Speaker 1: You know what? You got me wanting to watch just in case he might say we shall overcome.
00:08:32
Speaker 2: I threw that in there just for fun.
00:08:34
Speaker 1: Heading to a Negro spiritual. We shall. Yeah, okay. But again, I thought it was.
00:08:38
Speaker 3: I almost spit out my coffee when you started doing that. Warn me next time when you're going to start singing something funny.
00:08:43
Speaker 1: It's a strange spot to do it, Robes.
00:08:46
Speaker 3: It's just because it's so much of what people have been making fun of him for.
00:08:51
Speaker 2: And his wag the dog or let's look at this, look at this, look at this. Don't look at Iran. Don't look at your gas bill. Don't look at your grocery bill. Look at the reflecting pool. Isn't it pretty?
00:09:01
Speaker 1: Doesn't he think it's a representation of what he does for the country? Look at what I cleaned up.
00:09:07
Speaker 2: Which is laughable.
00:09:08
Speaker 1: Look at what I cleaned up.
00:09:10
Speaker 2: No one cares when they can't pay their bills.
00:09:12
Speaker 1: No, but look at what's possible. Okay. So we'll be watching. That's at 2 o'clock today. Can't wait to see him break out into We Shall Overcome. Continuing on the run here now, let's turn to U.S. Senator Chris Murphy. Recovering in the hospital this morning from a stroke. Robs, Connecticut Democrat, began experiencing numbness in his arm over the weekend, according to his office. He was at his son's hockey game at the time.
00:09:34
Speaker 3: Yes, he ended up being admitted to the hospital, and Murphy's office said in a statement that the senator is alert, he's awake, and they are optimistic about a full recovery.
00:09:43
Speaker 2: He's been a.
00:09:44
Speaker 3: Senator since 2013, and obviously this would have been a big deal for him. With everything at stake, folks are looking at the health of just about every single member of Congress at this point.
00:09:56
Speaker 1: He has served since 2013. Robes. He has been very visible lately, and there was a lot of talk of him possibly running for president. He has been very outspoken, very vocal. He feels like a fairly measured guy, if you will. He's grown a beard here lately. I'm not sure how I feel about that. But other than that, Chris Murphy has been talked about quite a bit. Turn now to Oberlin... Ohio. College community there has been shaken by the murder of a professor and his wife. This is, again, a small liberal arts school there, Oberlin University, but the professor and his wife were discovered shot to death at their home after performing a welfare check by police.
00:10:34
Speaker 3: And so, yes, as if this wasn't concerning enough, then they find out that their 31-year-old son, he has been charged with his own parents' murders, two counts of murder. The professor, his name was Pipo Hieu Nguyen Dui. He's described as a renowned and beloved professor of photography. He immigrated to the U.S. as a refugee from Vietnam. And yes, every headline when you see this story will say beloved professor, beloved professor. I actually was kind of taken aback at just how much he was written about in that way.
00:11:08
Speaker 1: And renowned, right? People throw that word around sometimes. But he was the head of whatever division of photography there. He's got awards and stuff all over the world. He is known. Did you see his picture? He's a... Robes, I don't know anything about him, his background, his life. What kind of guy he is. He looks sweet as anything.
00:11:28
Speaker 2: Right?
00:11:29
Speaker 1: Robes, he's got the double hoop earrings, bald head, glasses, stylish shirt. He looks just, Robes, beloved. He looks like an artist. And you just see his... picture and you go wow what a life he leaves from vietnam comes here he's doing well his own son kills him god according to police at least his own son.
00:11:48
Speaker 3: Killed innocent until proven guilty uh next up on the run lindsey clancy is expected to be back in court today and a lot is on the table prosecutors could announce whether they plan to retry the mother of three who strangled her three young children back in january of 2023 it's unclear though whether they will pursue, once again, first-degree murder charges, because we all know Clancy's trial resulted in that hung jury 11-1 in favor of the defense.
00:12:15
Speaker 1: You know, that might be the— we' ve been trying to predict a lot happening with this case. Maybe— is that the compromise, is to come back and charge her with something that's not first-degree?
00:12:25
Speaker 2: I'm curious, though. This prosecutor seems to— The guy or the women? Yes, the guy. Oh, yeah, the head.
00:12:31
Speaker 3: He seems to have a lot of ego to match Kevin Reddington's ego.
00:12:36
Speaker 1: This is what we're doing.
00:12:37
Speaker 2: I wonder.
00:12:38
Speaker 3: I mean, that would be the reason why I could see them, yes, having the, I don't want to say hubris, but the ego to go ahead and think they could get first-degree murder charges.
00:12:49
Speaker 1: You make me laugh at the idea that two ego-driven guys are in control of the fate of a woman. Yes. Who are in control of what might happen to her. And something else is guiding them besides what's best for this woman. Ah, potentially. Anyway, prosecutors filed a motion last week, indicated they were seeking to, quote, pursue justice for Clancy's kids. The judge is also expected to rule on several defense motions, including one to dismiss the case on double jeopardy grounds. Yes.
00:13:18
Speaker 3: The judge already ruled earlier this month. against a defense motion to investigate that loan holdout. Jurors, we know they lost that. But 9 a.m. Eastern time, it all begins again in Massachusetts.
00:13:29
Speaker 1: We'll stay with us on this Monday morning run. When we come back, it happens every year, right? Somebody gets in trouble for their Halloween costume. Who is it this year? Martha Stewart?
00:13:38
Speaker 2: Oh, this is a head scratcher.
00:13:40
Speaker 1: Yes, also coming up, the WNBA finals. Finally over, and guess who won? The new kids on the block. Also, the box office.
00:13:49
Speaker 2: It's Halloween.
00:13:51
Speaker 1: We got to do better than this. And also coming up, yes, the winners of the New York City Marathon.
00:14:05
Speaker 2: Welcome back, everyone, to this Monday Morning Run.
00:14:07
Speaker 3: I'm laughing because I feel like you need to say the first sentence because you wrote it in the way.
00:14:12
Speaker 1: Only you can say it. Oh, let me see. All right, let me see here. I'm sorry. I was looking at something on the television. All right, next up on the run, Martha Stewart, then gone and stepped in it. She's taking heat for her Halloween costume. Robes. We've seen, like, some racist-type stuff before. We've seen some ice... Right? Ice agent type. Gets people in a little trouble.
00:14:33
Speaker 2: Sometimes people have done murder victims when it's too soon.
00:14:36
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, it's too soon.
00:14:37
Speaker 3: I remember when, oh, it was awful to have the OJ Nicole Brown Simpson.
00:14:42
Speaker 1: Oh, God.
00:14:42
Speaker 2: Bless America.
00:14:42
Speaker 1: There were some tough, just.
00:14:43
Speaker 2: Inappropriate costumes, right? We've seen it over the years.
00:14:46
Speaker 1: Didn't see this one coming.
00:14:47
Speaker 3: Didn't see this one coming. We might have to do a, I think we might have to do an episode on this one.
00:14:51
Speaker 2: We will. Yes, Martha Stewart. Yes, look for this. She dressed, if you haven't heard, as... They don't say homeless person. What do they say?
00:14:58
Speaker 1: A person experiencing homelessness.
00:15:01
Speaker 2: She was dressed as a person experiencing homelessness.
00:15:04
Speaker 3: And no one told her that it might be a bad look for her to actually complete her outfit.
00:15:09
Speaker 2: Listen to what she did. She had dirt on her face. She wore tattered clothes. And she had a sign that read, I'm hungry. Please help.
00:15:19
Speaker 1: Homeless. That was what she was going for, right?
00:15:23
Speaker 2: Yep.
00:15:24
Speaker 3: Okay.
00:15:24
Speaker 1: So this is Martha Stewart. She had a pretty good reason for this. Now, she did take, we should say, after she posted it, it did come down almost immediately, and she said later in a statement, Robes, that added to the story, she said she was distressed that her outfit offended people, but then she had an explanation for why she chose this outfit in the first place.
00:15:46
Speaker 3: She said she chose to dress as a homeless person to bring more awareness to the very serious subject of homelessness. How can you If you're acknowledging it's a serious subject, how would it ever be in good taste to make a Halloween costume?
00:16:03
Speaker 1: Martha Stewart, this might be a misstep on her part.
00:16:07
Speaker 3: Our larger question that we will get into is how could no one? She has a team of people around her.
00:16:13
Speaker 1: Maybe she didn't on this one. Maybe she did this privately and then stepped out of the house and nobody knew she was doing it, except the person who was taking the photo.
00:16:20
Speaker 2: How could no one have told her? You might get some pushback on this one. You might want to rethink it.
00:16:28
Speaker 1: Or they should have said, Martha, that's not okay. Don't do that. Who cares what the public will think? But you, you don't want to do this, do you? The explanation was perplexing.
00:16:44
Speaker 2: Very much so.
00:16:45
Speaker 1: She's Martha Stewart. You can bring attention to homelessness 364 days a year. Skip Halloween, though.
00:16:51
Speaker 2: Yeah. Someone always gets in trouble. Always. Every single Halloween. It never fails.
00:16:56
Speaker 3: Someone always does something that offends people and they have to apologize.
00:17:01
Speaker 1: We should do it next year. We should finally do Halloween. We never do Halloween.
00:17:04
Speaker 2: We don't.
00:17:04
Speaker 1: We should get into it and do something elaborate. Start planning it now.
00:17:07
Speaker 2: Okay. I'm in. You know I love Halloween.
00:17:08
Speaker 1: We have to do this together, though.
00:17:09
Speaker 2: Okay. I love Halloween.
00:17:11
Speaker 1: It's got to be a black-white theme, though.
00:17:13
Speaker 2: Of course it does.
00:17:14
Speaker 3: All right, next up on the run, congratulations to the Golden State Valkyries. They won their first WNBA title on Halloween night. They beat the Atlanta Dream 68-63. That's a nice, fun game. Game seven of the WNBA Finals.
00:17:30
Speaker 1: And this is the first game seven in league history, and it's the first title for Golden State Rose. They're an expansion team. They've only been in the league three years.
00:17:38
Speaker 2: I don't know what expansion team means.
00:17:39
Speaker 1: It means like you have the WNBA, and all of a sudden another... City wants a team. So you expand your league by adding teams to the league. So it doesn't happen that often. But yes, there's a brand new team, the Golden State. It means that the WNBA is doing well, that they need to, they're expanding. But when you do that, you're plucking players from other teams the way it goes. So everybody thought Golden State's going to be forever to get good. And here they are. Third year. Won a championship. Congratulations to them. The box office. We've got to talk to these movie studios. It's Halloween. You had Halloween on a Saturday, and we had no great horror movies to pick from.
00:18:16
Speaker 3: Because, by the way, if there had been, as you were prepping for the marathon, we would have gone. Because we're like, we want to chill, something where you don't have to walk around a bunch.
00:18:25
Speaker 2: And there was not one horror movie that....
00:18:30
Speaker 3: There was nothing that would bring us to the, that's crazy, Halloween Saturday night.
00:18:34
Speaker 1: And Jamie Lee is still working. She should be in a horror movie every October.
00:18:38
Speaker 2: How is that possible?
00:18:39
Speaker 1: But yes, second lowest earning weekend of the year. So the Elizabeth Holmes documentary, slightly edged out, Clayface, with 10.6 million. You can see everything is the name of it. Three-hour documentary. We'll get around to it. Number one for the first time since opening three weeks ago. So yeah, it's been making its way up. Third week, now it's number one, 10.6 million. That's a Halloween. That's surprising.
00:19:04
Speaker 2: Right? That shows you there was nothing else to see that they chose to go see a three-hour documentary.
00:19:12
Speaker 1: On Halloween night.
00:19:13
Speaker 2: There was no horror movies.
00:19:15
Speaker 3: And by the way, to this, because I do want to see this, its box office total now sits at 63.9 million.
00:19:21
Speaker 2: It had a $ 7 million budget. I mean, that's remarkable.
00:19:26
Speaker 1: It's not quite obsession numbers, but it's good.
00:19:27
Speaker 2: That's fantastic. It's a three-hour documentary. It wasn't, like, that's, to get people to go see that, that's remarkable.
00:19:34
Speaker 1: You know, but she was, I mean, you remember when that whole thing was going on. That was no bigger story than Elizabeth Holmes, especially online. People launch podcast careers based on this lady.
00:19:44
Speaker 2: That is true, because it's so, like, and just everything about her is, I guess, fascinating.
00:19:49
Speaker 1: I can see that.
00:19:50
Speaker 3: Clayface came in second by by just 200 000 it like like i said it's slightly edged out clayface uh the elizabeth holmes.
00:19:58
Speaker 2: Documentary it's not doing better 10.4.
00:20:00
Speaker 3: Million but it fell 57 in its second weekend we loved it we thought it was great It was.
00:20:05
Speaker 1: Third place, animated film, Wildwood. Fourth place, comedic fantasy, Wicker. Olivia Colman is in that. Oh, yeah. She commissions a basket maker to build her a wicker husband.
00:20:16
Speaker 2: I thought that looked kind of interesting.
00:20:18
Speaker 1: Oh, it's getting great reviews, right?
00:20:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was only like a small release, so for it to come in fourth was great.
00:20:24
Speaker 2: And Alexander Skarsgård. I mean, anyone.
00:20:26
Speaker 1: I can't keep up straight.
00:20:27
Speaker 2: Which one is it? Isn't that the dad? No. If he built her a husband.
00:20:31
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, baby. Which one's Skarsgård, is it?
00:20:34
Speaker 2: I can't keep him straight.
00:20:35
Speaker 1: Is it the one that plays Pennywise or not?
00:20:37
Speaker 2: Alexander Skarsgård? No, I think that's someone else.
00:20:39
Speaker 1: The older brother, then. Is he the one that was, he was in King Kong?
00:20:45
Speaker 2: We can't, oh no. Which one is Alexander?
00:20:46
Speaker 3: Alexander Skarsgård is the son of Stellan Skarsgård. Who is that?
00:20:51
Speaker 2: He's the father. Wait. Stellan is the father. Alexander is younger.
00:20:56
Speaker 1: That's him.
00:20:56
Speaker 2: He's 50 years old.
00:20:57
Speaker 1: This one.
00:20:58
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:20:58
Speaker 1: He's Alexander. Okay. He played Tarzan. I love Alexander. He's awesome.
00:21:01
Speaker 2: Bill Skarsgård plays it, Pennywise.
00:21:03
Speaker 1: Yes, he's the... Okay. We do this every time.
00:21:06
Speaker 2: I can't keep any of the brothers straight.
00:21:09
Speaker 1: What about the Hemsworth boys?
00:21:10
Speaker 2: Don't even get me started. I'll get so confused. Or even the Chrises.
00:21:13
Speaker 3: Which one?
00:21:14
Speaker 2: Like Chris Pines versus Chris... Oh, my God. I can't keep any of them straight.
00:21:18
Speaker 1: You want to go with the Baldwins? How about the Baldwins? No, I know who they are. All right, final leg of the run. 26.2. Yes, New York City Marathon. It was a wonderful, wonderful day out there. Your two winners of the elite divisions, Sheila Chepkirio, right, of Kenya.
00:21:32
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:21:32
Speaker 1: This was her second win in three years. That's a big deal. And Robes, the guy who won for the men's division? was his first time running a marathon.
00:21:40
Speaker 2: That's amazing. He's from Sweden, Andreas Almgren. He was a half marathoner, correct?
00:21:46
Speaker 1: Big time, best in the world. So he's not just learning to run.
00:21:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, but still, we've said this before.
00:21:53
Speaker 3: Look, I think most people who run marathons, maybe not, but at least in my experience, do half marathons first.
00:21:59
Speaker 2: And you always say, it's not twice as hard. It's like.
00:22:04
Speaker 3: A hundred times harder so it's not like you can say oh well you're just taking your half marathon and then running a marathon no because something happens to your body at mile 20 that you cannot predict and it's different every time but you literally run out of gas in a way that is potentially fatal so you don't know how you're gonna.
00:22:22
Speaker 1: Be did you see that yesterday uh that people were taking off on carts there was uh i saw at least three people who were on stretchers and i saw a fourth person who was laid on the ground in his back and like just friends and spectators were attending to him. But there was one, I'd never seen this, like one of those carts, robes, those golf carts. It was actually had emergency lights on. Like there was an emergency. They were getting somebody out. Somebody I saw in a neck brace. So it looks like they just not passed, but took a fall, a hit of some kind. This is, it's fun and it's this and that. Rob, this is, it can be really dangerous stuff. Oh yeah.
00:22:53
Speaker 3: I told you, I relayed the story, but I saw two women and this is just a warning if you're going to be spectating and you've got marathoners around you. We were at the finish line, and yes, people, even if they've suffered and they're dying, and believe me, some people were vomiting as soon as they got to the finish line. Some people were literally immediately put into wheelchairs. But a lot of people have a, yes, a celebratory. They have that last burst of adrenaline, and they're smiling, and they're crying with joy. So these two women are like, you know what?
00:23:23
Speaker 2: I know it's hard, but Look how fun that looks and look how excited everybody is. I mean, I feel like we could do it.
00:23:29
Speaker 3: It doesn't look, I mean, I know it's hard, but it doesn't look that hard when you see all those smiles. And I looked at them. I said, ladies, however hard you think it is, multiply it.
00:23:38
Speaker 1: By a thousand. Did you do that too?
00:23:40
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:23:41
Speaker 3: I said, those smiles are just relief. And I said, do you see all the other people? They're like, yeah, I know what you're saying, but it feels like, I don't know. I just, people look like they still.
00:23:49
Speaker 2: Have energy in them.
00:23:50
Speaker 3: And I said, okay, you run the marathon and then come talk to me.
00:23:54
Speaker 1: You're seeing the end of six months of work. You are seeing the end of an MRI result that I got 10 weeks ago. You're seeing I'd like to show her my bleeding toe. That was stabbing me.
00:24:09
Speaker 2: Or you vomiting when you, yes.
00:24:12
Speaker 1: Tell me how fun that looks.
00:24:13
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:24:14
Speaker 1: And that's just the reality that people don't see. And that stuff needs to be talked about, but it's, it can be a little offensive when somebody sees and say, I can do this.
00:24:21
Speaker 2: Yes. And I heard people saying that.
00:24:22
Speaker 3: And look, I understand, but that's what's also tough because then when you see, and you're running alongside people who think that they can do it, they haven't actually put in the work and then they start walking at mile three.
00:24:32
Speaker 2: Which actually ends up being really difficult for people who have.
00:24:35
Speaker 3: Trained and want to keep running because And in certain congested areas, that actually I think is the most offensive part of it because people don't understand how hard it really is.
00:24:43
Speaker 1: But hey, if you want to run, get it. We welcome all. We welcome. We welcome all.
00:24:47
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:24:48
Speaker 1: But please, please respect those folks who are putting in that work. Yes.
00:24:54
Speaker 2: A lot of influencers like their content. We've noticed it's gotten more and more and more. It's very cool to say you ran a marathon. I'm just cool with marathons.
00:25:01
Speaker 1: But run it.
00:25:01
Speaker 2: It's very hard to actually. Did you run it or did you walk it? There's a question.
00:25:06
Speaker 1: All right.
00:25:06
Speaker 3: Quote of the day on this post-marathon Monday. I actually thought I'd get a marathon-themed quote. When you have gone so far that you cannot manage one more step, then you have gone just half the distance that you are capable of.
00:25:22
Speaker 2: What?
00:25:23
Speaker 1: I'm trying to follow that one. When you have gone so far.
00:25:26
Speaker 2: That you cannot manage one more step.
00:25:28
Speaker 1: I can't do one more step.
00:25:30
Speaker 2: Then you have gone just half the distance.
00:25:33
Speaker 1: Sorry.
00:25:34
Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
00:25:34
Speaker 2: I just clicked out of it.
00:25:35
Speaker 3: Then you have gone half the distance that you are capable of. I was going to give you the background to that.
00:25:39
Speaker 1: Okay, please.
00:25:40
Speaker 3: So this quote was written by a South African scientist and exercise physiologist. His name is Tim Noakes. And he had a book called The Love of Running. And he was just saying when people think, About what they can do. You're actually so much more capable than what your mind tells you you are.
00:25:56
Speaker 2: And that's part of marathon running.
00:25:58
Speaker 3: This is what you are actually negotiating with your own mind while you're running.
00:26:02
Speaker 2: You can do more than you think you can.
00:26:05
Speaker 1: My mind is negotiating with my body at the end of a marathon. For most people, I would say the last six. But certainly, the last three, four miles is mental. It's all a mental fight.
00:26:17
Speaker 2: The last point one is mental.
00:26:19
Speaker 1: Those signs suck. I hate it. Don't show me that.
00:26:23
Speaker 2: 800 yards, 400 yards, or is it meters? I don't even remember. It feels like it's forever away.
00:26:29
Speaker 1: It's getting farther away.
00:26:29
Speaker 3: And it was so weird to me to watch you because obviously I've never spectated. So I was watching you. I was tracking you on the app. And it's just like, oh, it looks like you just get there. But I know, obviously, having done this, how hard each step is. But it looks so easy when you're watching someone just move on this map. Oh, let's just catch up to him as I cross town on the subway. When you have gone so far that you cannot manage one more step, then you have gone just half the distance that you are capable of. You're stronger than you think, everybody. And with that, we always appreciate you running with us.
00:27:04
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robach.
00:27:05
Speaker 1: And I'm TJ Holmes. I'm not going to be running with you anytime soon.
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ.
00:00:02
Speaker 2: An iHeartRadio podcast.
00:00:05
Speaker 3: Hey there, everybody, and welcome to your Monday Morning Run.
00:00:10
Speaker 2: It's Monday, November 2nd. I'm Amy Robach.
00:00:13
Speaker 1: And I'm TJ Holmes. Say it again, Robes. November 2nd. It means our long, national, miserable nightmare is almost over. Midterms.
00:00:21
Speaker 3: Oh, I was thinking it meant that the marathon was done and we have a finisher sitting down.
00:00:29
Speaker 2: Next to me.
00:00:29
Speaker 1: Congratulations, baby. Thank you.
00:00:33
Speaker 2: It was a big, big deal that you crossed that finish line.
00:00:36
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the thing on my mind most is midterms. I'm kidding.
00:00:41
Speaker 2: No.
00:00:42
Speaker 1: Great day in New York. Great weather.
00:00:44
Speaker 2: It was amazing.
00:00:45
Speaker 1: It was fantastic. Thank you to the city, as always, for turning out and supporting all those runners. It was a wonderful day. Anybody keeping up with us here know I had some foot struggles and It was a rough. We can get into it. We will get into it later, maybe somewhere on the feed. But yes, got the medal.
00:01:00
Speaker 2: Beautiful.
00:01:01
Speaker 1: Gold. 50 years of the same route. It was a big, big, big day.
00:01:04
Speaker 2: It was so fun.
00:01:05
Speaker 3: This was my first time spectating, and it was fun cheering you on. But yes, I actually even have more respect for all the friends and family members and just... And just residents who just come out and cheer on people who have spent the last five months training for something that most people will never even consider attempting.
00:01:24
Speaker 2: And watching people cross the finish line, we had a great spot.
00:01:27
Speaker 3: New York Roadrunners, amazing organization, gave us, gave Nikki and I, my best friend and I, because her boyfriend Chris was running, these incredible viewpoints to watch people cross the finish line. If you can't get inspired by seeing people accomplish something they didn't think was possible, and you can see it on so many people's faces.
00:01:46
Speaker 2: It's just a beautiful reminder of what is possible.
00:01:49
Speaker 1: Best day in New York every single year. If you ever get a chance to come to New York for the marathon just to be a spectator, you should do it. So once again, New York showed out yesterday. So wherever you may be this morning, hope you are getting off to a good start. Hope you had a safe Halloween weekend. Robes, it was a scary one, a deadly one, a violent one, several shootings that we will tell you about. But yes, on this morning run, we'll make stops in Palm Springs, in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Birmingham, Alabama, Fairfield, California, Oberlin, Ohio. We'll also make a stop at the Reflecting Pool in D.C. We'll also swing by Martha Stewart's house. And, of course, we'll make another stop in the streets of New York. Yes, I finished, but you did have some winners, and it was really close at the end for us. The two that won in the men's and women's division have some pretty cool stories. So we'll get into that in a moment. But yes, we do have to start robed what the actual hell is going on. Shootings, mass shootings connected to football games. This is awful.
00:02:47
Speaker 3: Next up on the run, yes, we begin with a 19-year-old woman who is dead and another eight people who were injured in a mass shooting outside a football game in Alabama. The game was the annual Magic City Classic. It's a rivalry game.
00:03:01
Speaker 2: Game between Alabama State and Alabama A & M that draws huge crowds. It's been played for a hundred years.
00:03:09
Speaker 3: Yes.
00:03:09
Speaker 2: And this happens.
00:03:10
Speaker 1: Robes, the game drew some 70,000 spectators. It's one of the most attended games, HBCU games, every single year. Robes, it was just last week or the weekend before. That was a shooting outside of an HBCU game as well. But on this one, police say most people had dispersed after this game when the shooting happened, but they have not released a A lot of details. They haven't released a possible motive, but they do have at least one person in custody. Let's turn now, next up on the run, Robes, we go to a place we are very familiar with, not just Fayetteville, Arkansas, but where this shooting happened. At least six people injured in a shooting after the University of Arkansas' homecoming game. And, Robes, you cannot have a shooting in a more crowded place in this particular moment after a game.
00:03:54
Speaker 3: Well, this is frightening stuff. As you mentioned, obviously, we love... Fayetteville, Arkansas. We go back at least once a year, usually more, to see a game. And this happened on Dixon Street. This is an idyllic college town street lined with shops and restaurants and bars. It literally is like a Norman Rockwell version of... of a college town. Like that is how I would describe Fayetteville, Arkansas and specifically Dixon Street. It's the most bustling and festive street in all of Fayetteville, especially after a game. And police believe that this was a targeted incident that happened after a specific altercation, but they haven't gotten any details and no one's been arrested.
00:04:39
Speaker 1: And everybody knows, think of any college town you know, when everybody gets done with a game, they spill out into whatever area. Dixon Street is a long stretch of that, and you cannot get busier than after a football game.
00:04:51
Speaker 2: We just did this a couple weeks ago.
00:04:52
Speaker 1: We just were there in September. So, again, no motive in that one, and at least no one arrested Dixon. There, we do want to turn now to California, in particular Fairfield, California. This was on Saturday night. Robes, a pregnant woman was killed. And they say this woman is actually a mother of four. And she was expecting, killed at of all places, on Halloween night at a Spirit Halloween store. A gunman, according to police, Robes, opened fire as people were shopping. for last minute Halloween stuff.
00:05:22
Speaker 2: To think about this mom who's pregnant.
00:05:25
Speaker 1: You know what she was doing there.
00:05:26
Speaker 2: Probably getting some last... You know.
00:05:27
Speaker 1: Exactly what she was doing.
00:05:27
Speaker 2: I actually want to just start crying right now. She was probably getting a last minute thing for her kid who was missing something from a Halloween costume.
00:05:36
Speaker 3: She was being a good mom and just... My God, this is awful. At least six others were injured in this mass shooting and three of them are in critical condition as of this recording. Police have not identified a suspect. Believe once again... that this was a targeted attack.
00:05:52
Speaker 1: Well, we've seen the last several mass shootings, people were shot that had nothing to do with some altercation.
00:05:59
Speaker 2: Right.
00:06:00
Speaker 1: Where you've seen plenty where people just go in and want to do damage and shoot people up. It hasn't been the case on several of these lately.
00:06:05
Speaker 2: No, they've been going after someone.
00:06:07
Speaker 1: And bystanders are getting hit in this stuff. We continue now on The Run. Nine people were killed in a plane crash in Florida yesterday, all aboard a business jet that had taken off from Austin. They were actually heading to the Bahamas, but something went wrong and they crashed around one o'clock in Palm Springs and Robes. Yes, obviously the NTSB is investigating the video of there is video. of the exact moment of impact. I've never seen anything quite like this.
00:06:42
Speaker 3: You told me you need to watch this just to fully understand the scope of this story.
00:06:48
Speaker 2: But, yes, as you mentioned, it happened around 1 o'clock.
00:06:52
Speaker 3: It almost looks like you were describing it as a guided missile, like a targeted attack. You would think that you were looking at something happening in Ukraine.
00:07:01
Speaker 2: I mean, you would not think this was a plane. You couldn't even see the plane. It happened so fast.
00:07:06
Speaker 1: But it did a nosedive. It was nothing. There was zero control of this aircraft.
00:07:11
Speaker 2: And it's so weird to know that it happened not at takeoff, not at landing.
00:07:16
Speaker 1: Well into the trip. Almost over. They were almost.
00:07:19
Speaker 2: To the Bahamas.
00:07:20
Speaker 3: They were getting close to the Bahamas, obviously, in Palm Springs. To think that that happened midair for whatever reason, they have a lot of investigating to do.
00:07:29
Speaker 1: All right. We're going to turn now to some politics. President's finished with his rallies. He's done traveling all around. but he's going to do one more speech today. It's going to be his closing argument that the president is going to make. It's going to be 2 o'clock today in D.C. Robes, what would be the perfect place to do your closing argument on the midterms?
00:07:51
Speaker 3: I mean, he thinks, I think it might be a little strange, but he thinks the perfect place to do it would be at the reflecting pool. I guess it's finally refinished after all those damn vandals did their Oh, wait.
00:08:06
Speaker 2: Or was it shoddy construction work? Oh, wait. No, it was definitely vandals.
00:08:10
Speaker 1: Ask Jeanine Pirro. Ask her. Yes.
00:08:14
Speaker 3: Or anyone who has a brain cell. But anyway, he's probably going to say, look what we did. Despite what they did to us, we shall overcome. And we will do the same on Tuesday when you go to the balance.
00:08:27
Speaker 1: You know what? You got me wanting to watch just in case he might say we shall overcome.
00:08:32
Speaker 2: I threw that in there just for fun.
00:08:34
Speaker 1: Heading to a Negro spiritual. We shall. Yeah, okay. But again, I thought it was.
00:08:38
Speaker 3: I almost spit out my coffee when you started doing that. Warn me next time when you're going to start singing something funny.
00:08:43
Speaker 1: It's a strange spot to do it, Robes.
00:08:46
Speaker 3: It's just because it's so much of what people have been making fun of him for.
00:08:51
Speaker 2: And his wag the dog or let's look at this, look at this, look at this. Don't look at Iran. Don't look at your gas bill. Don't look at your grocery bill. Look at the reflecting pool. Isn't it pretty?
00:09:01
Speaker 1: Doesn't he think it's a representation of what he does for the country? Look at what I cleaned up.
00:09:07
Speaker 2: Which is laughable.
00:09:08
Speaker 1: Look at what I cleaned up.
00:09:10
Speaker 2: No one cares when they can't pay their bills.
00:09:12
Speaker 1: No, but look at what's possible. Okay. So we'll be watching. That's at 2 o'clock today. Can't wait to see him break out into We Shall Overcome. Continuing on the run here now, let's turn to U.S. Senator Chris Murphy. Recovering in the hospital this morning from a stroke. Robs, Connecticut Democrat, began experiencing numbness in his arm over the weekend, according to his office. He was at his son's hockey game at the time.
00:09:34
Speaker 3: Yes, he ended up being admitted to the hospital, and Murphy's office said in a statement that the senator is alert, he's awake, and they are optimistic about a full recovery.
00:09:43
Speaker 2: He's been a.
00:09:44
Speaker 3: Senator since 2013, and obviously this would have been a big deal for him. With everything at stake, folks are looking at the health of just about every single member of Congress at this point.
00:09:56
Speaker 1: He has served since 2013. Robes. He has been very visible lately, and there was a lot of talk of him possibly running for president. He has been very outspoken, very vocal. He feels like a fairly measured guy, if you will. He's grown a beard here lately. I'm not sure how I feel about that. But other than that, Chris Murphy has been talked about quite a bit. Turn now to Oberlin... Ohio. College community there has been shaken by the murder of a professor and his wife. This is, again, a small liberal arts school there, Oberlin University, but the professor and his wife were discovered shot to death at their home after performing a welfare check by police.
00:10:34
Speaker 3: And so, yes, as if this wasn't concerning enough, then they find out that their 31-year-old son, he has been charged with his own parents' murders, two counts of murder. The professor, his name was Pipo Hieu Nguyen Dui. He's described as a renowned and beloved professor of photography. He immigrated to the U.S. as a refugee from Vietnam. And yes, every headline when you see this story will say beloved professor, beloved professor. I actually was kind of taken aback at just how much he was written about in that way.
00:11:08
Speaker 1: And renowned, right? People throw that word around sometimes. But he was the head of whatever division of photography there. He's got awards and stuff all over the world. He is known. Did you see his picture? He's a... Robes, I don't know anything about him, his background, his life. What kind of guy he is. He looks sweet as anything.
00:11:28
Speaker 2: Right?
00:11:29
Speaker 1: Robes, he's got the double hoop earrings, bald head, glasses, stylish shirt. He looks just, Robes, beloved. He looks like an artist. And you just see his... picture and you go wow what a life he leaves from vietnam comes here he's doing well his own son kills him god according to police at least his own son.
00:11:48
Speaker 3: Killed innocent until proven guilty uh next up on the run lindsey clancy is expected to be back in court today and a lot is on the table prosecutors could announce whether they plan to retry the mother of three who strangled her three young children back in january of 2023 it's unclear though whether they will pursue, once again, first-degree murder charges, because we all know Clancy's trial resulted in that hung jury 11-1 in favor of the defense.
00:12:15
Speaker 1: You know, that might be the— we' ve been trying to predict a lot happening with this case. Maybe— is that the compromise, is to come back and charge her with something that's not first-degree?
00:12:25
Speaker 2: I'm curious, though. This prosecutor seems to— The guy or the women? Yes, the guy. Oh, yeah, the head.
00:12:31
Speaker 3: He seems to have a lot of ego to match Kevin Reddington's ego.
00:12:36
Speaker 1: This is what we're doing.
00:12:37
Speaker 2: I wonder.
00:12:38
Speaker 3: I mean, that would be the reason why I could see them, yes, having the, I don't want to say hubris, but the ego to go ahead and think they could get first-degree murder charges.
00:12:49
Speaker 1: You make me laugh at the idea that two ego-driven guys are in control of the fate of a woman. Yes. Who are in control of what might happen to her. And something else is guiding them besides what's best for this woman. Ah, potentially. Anyway, prosecutors filed a motion last week, indicated they were seeking to, quote, pursue justice for Clancy's kids. The judge is also expected to rule on several defense motions, including one to dismiss the case on double jeopardy grounds. Yes.
00:13:18
Speaker 3: The judge already ruled earlier this month. against a defense motion to investigate that loan holdout. Jurors, we know they lost that. But 9 a.m. Eastern time, it all begins again in Massachusetts.
00:13:29
Speaker 1: We'll stay with us on this Monday morning run. When we come back, it happens every year, right? Somebody gets in trouble for their Halloween costume. Who is it this year? Martha Stewart?
00:13:38
Speaker 2: Oh, this is a head scratcher.
00:13:40
Speaker 1: Yes, also coming up, the WNBA finals. Finally over, and guess who won? The new kids on the block. Also, the box office.
00:13:49
Speaker 2: It's Halloween.
00:13:51
Speaker 1: We got to do better than this. And also coming up, yes, the winners of the New York City Marathon.
00:14:05
Speaker 2: Welcome back, everyone, to this Monday Morning Run.
00:14:07
Speaker 3: I'm laughing because I feel like you need to say the first sentence because you wrote it in the way.
00:14:12
Speaker 1: Only you can say it. Oh, let me see. All right, let me see here. I'm sorry. I was looking at something on the television. All right, next up on the run, Martha Stewart, then gone and stepped in it. She's taking heat for her Halloween costume. Robes. We've seen, like, some racist-type stuff before. We've seen some ice... Right? Ice agent type. Gets people in a little trouble.
00:14:33
Speaker 2: Sometimes people have done murder victims when it's too soon.
00:14:36
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, it's too soon.
00:14:37
Speaker 3: I remember when, oh, it was awful to have the OJ Nicole Brown Simpson.
00:14:42
Speaker 1: Oh, God.
00:14:42
Speaker 2: Bless America.
00:14:42
Speaker 1: There were some tough, just.
00:14:43
Speaker 2: Inappropriate costumes, right? We've seen it over the years.
00:14:46
Speaker 1: Didn't see this one coming.
00:14:47
Speaker 3: Didn't see this one coming. We might have to do a, I think we might have to do an episode on this one.
00:14:51
Speaker 2: We will. Yes, Martha Stewart. Yes, look for this. She dressed, if you haven't heard, as... They don't say homeless person. What do they say?
00:14:58
Speaker 1: A person experiencing homelessness.
00:15:01
Speaker 2: She was dressed as a person experiencing homelessness.
00:15:04
Speaker 3: And no one told her that it might be a bad look for her to actually complete her outfit.
00:15:09
Speaker 2: Listen to what she did. She had dirt on her face. She wore tattered clothes. And she had a sign that read, I'm hungry. Please help.
00:15:19
Speaker 1: Homeless. That was what she was going for, right?
00:15:23
Speaker 2: Yep.
00:15:24
Speaker 3: Okay.
00:15:24
Speaker 1: So this is Martha Stewart. She had a pretty good reason for this. Now, she did take, we should say, after she posted it, it did come down almost immediately, and she said later in a statement, Robes, that added to the story, she said she was distressed that her outfit offended people, but then she had an explanation for why she chose this outfit in the first place.
00:15:46
Speaker 3: She said she chose to dress as a homeless person to bring more awareness to the very serious subject of homelessness. How can you If you're acknowledging it's a serious subject, how would it ever be in good taste to make a Halloween costume?
00:16:03
Speaker 1: Martha Stewart, this might be a misstep on her part.
00:16:07
Speaker 3: Our larger question that we will get into is how could no one? She has a team of people around her.
00:16:13
Speaker 1: Maybe she didn't on this one. Maybe she did this privately and then stepped out of the house and nobody knew she was doing it, except the person who was taking the photo.
00:16:20
Speaker 2: How could no one have told her? You might get some pushback on this one. You might want to rethink it.
00:16:28
Speaker 1: Or they should have said, Martha, that's not okay. Don't do that. Who cares what the public will think? But you, you don't want to do this, do you? The explanation was perplexing.
00:16:44
Speaker 2: Very much so.
00:16:45
Speaker 1: She's Martha Stewart. You can bring attention to homelessness 364 days a year. Skip Halloween, though.
00:16:51
Speaker 2: Yeah. Someone always gets in trouble. Always. Every single Halloween. It never fails.
00:16:56
Speaker 3: Someone always does something that offends people and they have to apologize.
00:17:01
Speaker 1: We should do it next year. We should finally do Halloween. We never do Halloween.
00:17:04
Speaker 2: We don't.
00:17:04
Speaker 1: We should get into it and do something elaborate. Start planning it now.
00:17:07
Speaker 2: Okay. I'm in. You know I love Halloween.
00:17:08
Speaker 1: We have to do this together, though.
00:17:09
Speaker 2: Okay. I love Halloween.
00:17:11
Speaker 1: It's got to be a black-white theme, though.
00:17:13
Speaker 2: Of course it does.
00:17:14
Speaker 3: All right, next up on the run, congratulations to the Golden State Valkyries. They won their first WNBA title on Halloween night. They beat the Atlanta Dream 68-63. That's a nice, fun game. Game seven of the WNBA Finals.
00:17:30
Speaker 1: And this is the first game seven in league history, and it's the first title for Golden State Rose. They're an expansion team. They've only been in the league three years.
00:17:38
Speaker 2: I don't know what expansion team means.
00:17:39
Speaker 1: It means like you have the WNBA, and all of a sudden another... City wants a team. So you expand your league by adding teams to the league. So it doesn't happen that often. But yes, there's a brand new team, the Golden State. It means that the WNBA is doing well, that they need to, they're expanding. But when you do that, you're plucking players from other teams the way it goes. So everybody thought Golden State's going to be forever to get good. And here they are. Third year. Won a championship. Congratulations to them. The box office. We've got to talk to these movie studios. It's Halloween. You had Halloween on a Saturday, and we had no great horror movies to pick from.
00:18:16
Speaker 3: Because, by the way, if there had been, as you were prepping for the marathon, we would have gone. Because we're like, we want to chill, something where you don't have to walk around a bunch.
00:18:25
Speaker 2: And there was not one horror movie that....
00:18:30
Speaker 3: There was nothing that would bring us to the, that's crazy, Halloween Saturday night.
00:18:34
Speaker 1: And Jamie Lee is still working. She should be in a horror movie every October.
00:18:38
Speaker 2: How is that possible?
00:18:39
Speaker 1: But yes, second lowest earning weekend of the year. So the Elizabeth Holmes documentary, slightly edged out, Clayface, with 10.6 million. You can see everything is the name of it. Three-hour documentary. We'll get around to it. Number one for the first time since opening three weeks ago. So yeah, it's been making its way up. Third week, now it's number one, 10.6 million. That's a Halloween. That's surprising.
00:19:04
Speaker 2: Right? That shows you there was nothing else to see that they chose to go see a three-hour documentary.
00:19:12
Speaker 1: On Halloween night.
00:19:13
Speaker 2: There was no horror movies.
00:19:15
Speaker 3: And by the way, to this, because I do want to see this, its box office total now sits at 63.9 million.
00:19:21
Speaker 2: It had a $ 7 million budget. I mean, that's remarkable.
00:19:26
Speaker 1: It's not quite obsession numbers, but it's good.
00:19:27
Speaker 2: That's fantastic. It's a three-hour documentary. It wasn't, like, that's, to get people to go see that, that's remarkable.
00:19:34
Speaker 1: You know, but she was, I mean, you remember when that whole thing was going on. That was no bigger story than Elizabeth Holmes, especially online. People launch podcast careers based on this lady.
00:19:44
Speaker 2: That is true, because it's so, like, and just everything about her is, I guess, fascinating.
00:19:49
Speaker 1: I can see that.
00:19:50
Speaker 3: Clayface came in second by by just 200 000 it like like i said it's slightly edged out clayface uh the elizabeth holmes.
00:19:58
Speaker 2: Documentary it's not doing better 10.4.
00:20:00
Speaker 3: Million but it fell 57 in its second weekend we loved it we thought it was great It was.
00:20:05
Speaker 1: Third place, animated film, Wildwood. Fourth place, comedic fantasy, Wicker. Olivia Colman is in that. Oh, yeah. She commissions a basket maker to build her a wicker husband.
00:20:16
Speaker 2: I thought that looked kind of interesting.
00:20:18
Speaker 1: Oh, it's getting great reviews, right?
00:20:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was only like a small release, so for it to come in fourth was great.
00:20:24
Speaker 2: And Alexander Skarsgård. I mean, anyone.
00:20:26
Speaker 1: I can't keep up straight.
00:20:27
Speaker 2: Which one is it? Isn't that the dad? No. If he built her a husband.
00:20:31
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, baby. Which one's Skarsgård, is it?
00:20:34
Speaker 2: I can't keep him straight.
00:20:35
Speaker 1: Is it the one that plays Pennywise or not?
00:20:37
Speaker 2: Alexander Skarsgård? No, I think that's someone else.
00:20:39
Speaker 1: The older brother, then. Is he the one that was, he was in King Kong?
00:20:45
Speaker 2: We can't, oh no. Which one is Alexander?
00:20:46
Speaker 3: Alexander Skarsgård is the son of Stellan Skarsgård. Who is that?
00:20:51
Speaker 2: He's the father. Wait. Stellan is the father. Alexander is younger.
00:20:56
Speaker 1: That's him.
00:20:56
Speaker 2: He's 50 years old.
00:20:57
Speaker 1: This one.
00:20:58
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:20:58
Speaker 1: He's Alexander. Okay. He played Tarzan. I love Alexander. He's awesome.
00:21:01
Speaker 2: Bill Skarsgård plays it, Pennywise.
00:21:03
Speaker 1: Yes, he's the... Okay. We do this every time.
00:21:06
Speaker 2: I can't keep any of the brothers straight.
00:21:09
Speaker 1: What about the Hemsworth boys?
00:21:10
Speaker 2: Don't even get me started. I'll get so confused. Or even the Chrises.
00:21:13
Speaker 3: Which one?
00:21:14
Speaker 2: Like Chris Pines versus Chris... Oh, my God. I can't keep any of them straight.
00:21:18
Speaker 1: You want to go with the Baldwins? How about the Baldwins? No, I know who they are. All right, final leg of the run. 26.2. Yes, New York City Marathon. It was a wonderful, wonderful day out there. Your two winners of the elite divisions, Sheila Chepkirio, right, of Kenya.
00:21:32
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:21:32
Speaker 1: This was her second win in three years. That's a big deal. And Robes, the guy who won for the men's division? was his first time running a marathon.
00:21:40
Speaker 2: That's amazing. He's from Sweden, Andreas Almgren. He was a half marathoner, correct?
00:21:46
Speaker 1: Big time, best in the world. So he's not just learning to run.
00:21:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, but still, we've said this before.
00:21:53
Speaker 3: Look, I think most people who run marathons, maybe not, but at least in my experience, do half marathons first.
00:21:59
Speaker 2: And you always say, it's not twice as hard. It's like.
00:22:04
Speaker 3: A hundred times harder so it's not like you can say oh well you're just taking your half marathon and then running a marathon no because something happens to your body at mile 20 that you cannot predict and it's different every time but you literally run out of gas in a way that is potentially fatal so you don't know how you're gonna.
00:22:22
Speaker 1: Be did you see that yesterday uh that people were taking off on carts there was uh i saw at least three people who were on stretchers and i saw a fourth person who was laid on the ground in his back and like just friends and spectators were attending to him. But there was one, I'd never seen this, like one of those carts, robes, those golf carts. It was actually had emergency lights on. Like there was an emergency. They were getting somebody out. Somebody I saw in a neck brace. So it looks like they just not passed, but took a fall, a hit of some kind. This is, it's fun and it's this and that. Rob, this is, it can be really dangerous stuff. Oh yeah.
00:22:53
Speaker 3: I told you, I relayed the story, but I saw two women and this is just a warning if you're going to be spectating and you've got marathoners around you. We were at the finish line, and yes, people, even if they've suffered and they're dying, and believe me, some people were vomiting as soon as they got to the finish line. Some people were literally immediately put into wheelchairs. But a lot of people have a, yes, a celebratory. They have that last burst of adrenaline, and they're smiling, and they're crying with joy. So these two women are like, you know what?
00:23:23
Speaker 2: I know it's hard, but Look how fun that looks and look how excited everybody is. I mean, I feel like we could do it.
00:23:29
Speaker 3: It doesn't look, I mean, I know it's hard, but it doesn't look that hard when you see all those smiles. And I looked at them. I said, ladies, however hard you think it is, multiply it.
00:23:38
Speaker 1: By a thousand. Did you do that too?
00:23:40
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:23:41
Speaker 3: I said, those smiles are just relief. And I said, do you see all the other people? They're like, yeah, I know what you're saying, but it feels like, I don't know. I just, people look like they still.
00:23:49
Speaker 2: Have energy in them.
00:23:50
Speaker 3: And I said, okay, you run the marathon and then come talk to me.
00:23:54
Speaker 1: You're seeing the end of six months of work. You are seeing the end of an MRI result that I got 10 weeks ago. You're seeing I'd like to show her my bleeding toe. That was stabbing me.
00:24:09
Speaker 2: Or you vomiting when you, yes.
00:24:12
Speaker 1: Tell me how fun that looks.
00:24:13
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:24:14
Speaker 1: And that's just the reality that people don't see. And that stuff needs to be talked about, but it's, it can be a little offensive when somebody sees and say, I can do this.
00:24:21
Speaker 2: Yes. And I heard people saying that.
00:24:22
Speaker 3: And look, I understand, but that's what's also tough because then when you see, and you're running alongside people who think that they can do it, they haven't actually put in the work and then they start walking at mile three.
00:24:32
Speaker 2: Which actually ends up being really difficult for people who have.
00:24:35
Speaker 3: Trained and want to keep running because And in certain congested areas, that actually I think is the most offensive part of it because people don't understand how hard it really is.
00:24:43
Speaker 1: But hey, if you want to run, get it. We welcome all. We welcome. We welcome all.
00:24:47
Speaker 2: Yes.
00:24:48
Speaker 1: But please, please respect those folks who are putting in that work. Yes.
00:24:54
Speaker 2: A lot of influencers like their content. We've noticed it's gotten more and more and more. It's very cool to say you ran a marathon. I'm just cool with marathons.
00:25:01
Speaker 1: But run it.
00:25:01
Speaker 2: It's very hard to actually. Did you run it or did you walk it? There's a question.
00:25:06
Speaker 1: All right.
00:25:06
Speaker 3: Quote of the day on this post-marathon Monday. I actually thought I'd get a marathon-themed quote. When you have gone so far that you cannot manage one more step, then you have gone just half the distance that you are capable of.
00:25:22
Speaker 2: What?
00:25:23
Speaker 1: I'm trying to follow that one. When you have gone so far.
00:25:26
Speaker 2: That you cannot manage one more step.
00:25:28
Speaker 1: I can't do one more step.
00:25:30
Speaker 2: Then you have gone just half the distance.
00:25:33
Speaker 1: Sorry.
00:25:34
Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
00:25:34
Speaker 2: I just clicked out of it.
00:25:35
Speaker 3: Then you have gone half the distance that you are capable of. I was going to give you the background to that.
00:25:39
Speaker 1: Okay, please.
00:25:40
Speaker 3: So this quote was written by a South African scientist and exercise physiologist. His name is Tim Noakes. And he had a book called The Love of Running. And he was just saying when people think, About what they can do. You're actually so much more capable than what your mind tells you you are.
00:25:56
Speaker 2: And that's part of marathon running.
00:25:58
Speaker 3: This is what you are actually negotiating with your own mind while you're running.
00:26:02
Speaker 2: You can do more than you think you can.
00:26:05
Speaker 1: My mind is negotiating with my body at the end of a marathon. For most people, I would say the last six. But certainly, the last three, four miles is mental. It's all a mental fight.
00:26:17
Speaker 2: The last point one is mental.
00:26:19
Speaker 1: Those signs suck. I hate it. Don't show me that.
00:26:23
Speaker 2: 800 yards, 400 yards, or is it meters? I don't even remember. It feels like it's forever away.
00:26:29
Speaker 1: It's getting farther away.
00:26:29
Speaker 3: And it was so weird to me to watch you because obviously I've never spectated. So I was watching you. I was tracking you on the app. And it's just like, oh, it looks like you just get there. But I know, obviously, having done this, how hard each step is. But it looks so easy when you're watching someone just move on this map. Oh, let's just catch up to him as I cross town on the subway. When you have gone so far that you cannot manage one more step, then you have gone just half the distance that you are capable of. You're stronger than you think, everybody. And with that, we always appreciate you running with us.
00:27:04
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robach.
00:27:05
Speaker 1: And I'm TJ Holmes. I'm not going to be running with you anytime soon.
