during a Sunday call with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who aimed 67 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,840 to gauge the sentiment after Biden's poor debate performance. 68 00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:48,400 Concerns were raised about the potential damage to the Democratic ticket and its impact on 69 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,920 regaining the House majority. 70 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:57,920

unique effects on your body. 98 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:18,600 While a drink might seem relaxing, it could worsen your in-flight experience. 99 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:24,640 New research shows that alcohol compounds high-altitude effects, straining the cardiovascular 100 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:30,680 system, reducing blood oxygen levels, and impairing sleep quality. 101 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:36,840 Why not just avoid drinking it in a situation that is already stressful for the body? 102 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:43,120 Experts advise limiting alcohol consumption, pairing it with food, and staying hydrated. 103 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:50,520 Remember, even moderate drinking can disrupt sleep and heighten anxiety during flights. 104 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:59,520 And in entertainment news, a first peek at Brad Pitt's new movie, titled F1, reveals 105 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,680 fast cars and dangerous driving. 106 00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:09,440 Filmed at actual Grand Prix events, F1 promises thrilling feats of driving and glorious speed, 107 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:14,160 rather than a critical view of the multibillion-dollar industry. 108 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:19,360 Directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the film features Pitt 109 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:25,920 as a retired racer and Dancin Idris as an up-and-coming driver, both trained by Formula 110 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,880 1 legend Lewis Hamilton. 111 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:35,640 Despite Apple's backing, the movie is set for a theatrical release on June 25, 2025, 112 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,640 internationally, and June 27 in North America. 113 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:45,440 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 114 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:50,920 And today, our quote comes from Canadian activist Jack Clayton. 115 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,200 And he said, 116 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,680 My friends, love is better than anger. 117 00:09:56,680 --> 00:09:59,880 Hope is better than fear. 118 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:04,000 And optimism is better than despair. 119 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,460 So let us be loving, hopeful, and optimistic. 120 00:10:08,460 --> 00:10:11,680 And we'll change the world. 121 00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:14,280 And that's a wrap for this morning. 122 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:20,400 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos 123 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,800 with local news and the surf reports. 124 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,720 Have an amazing day, my good friends.
