That 00:00:32.420 --> 00:00:34.960 milestone proved the practical promise of combining 00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.780 radio and visual technology, inspiring inventors 00:00:38.780 --> 00:00:41.979 and broadcasters to pursue commercial television 00:00:41.979 --> 00:00:48.079 development.

Despite this, 00:03:59.060 --> 00:04:01.860 many San Diego drivers are still feeling the 00:04:01.860 --> 00:04:04.360 pinch at the pump, as the average cost remains 00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:08.539 around $4.

Now onto sports. 00:04:28.740 --> 00:04:31.360 Mike Tomlin has no interest in shifting the weight 00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:34.680 of the Pittsburgh Steelers' recent playoff failures 00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:37.399 onto his players ahead of tonight's game against 00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:41.310 Houston. Tomlin stated, I'm certainly not going 00:04:41.310 --> 00:04:43.970 to unpack my bags on the collective's bed, if 00:04:43.970 --> 00:04:47.629 you will." The Steelers, with a record of 10 00:04:47.629 --> 00:04:51.189 wins and 7 losses, are facing a Texans team on 00:04:51.189 --> 00:04:55.509 a 9 -game winning streak. Aaron Rodgers acknowledged 00:04:55.509 --> 00:04:58.389 the pressure on Tomlin, saying, it feels good 00:04:58.389 --> 00:05:02.329 to shut all those comments down. Steelers wide 00:05:02.329 --> 00:05:05.810 receiver Yike Metcalf returns, after a suspension, 00:05:06.449 --> 00:05:10.379 expressing gratitude to his teammates. Houston's 00:05:10.379 --> 00:05:13.699 coach, D 'Amico Ryans, is confident in his players' 00:05:13.699 --> 00:05:16.899 ability to win, stating, our guys know how to 00:05:16.899 --> 00:05:22.399 win football games. Kickoff is at 8 .15 on ESPN 00:05:22.399 --> 00:05:28.079 in local sports. The New England Patriots, led 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.120 by coach Mike Frable, celebrated their first 00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:35.000 playoff victory since the 2018 season, defeating 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:38.519 the Los Angeles Chargers 16 -3 in the wild card 00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:42.660 round. Milton Williams secured the win with a 00:05:42.660 --> 00:05:45.500 critical sack on Justin Herbert, celebrating 00:05:45.500 --> 00:05:50.000 with a headbutt that left Vrabel bloodied. Drake 00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:52.860 May threw a touchdown pass to Hunter Henry, while 00:05:52.860 --> 00:05:55.660 the Patriots defense dominated, sacking Herbert 00:05:55.660 --> 00:06:00.100 six times. Herbert, who was recovering from surgery, 00:06:00.579 --> 00:06:04.399 struggled, finishing with 159 yards, passing 00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:07.319 as the Chargers ended their season without a 00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:10.839 touchdown in the playoffs. Next up for the Patriots 00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:13.459 is a divisional matchup against either Pittsburgh 00:06:13.459 --> 00:06:19.519 or Houston. In top news, new research is shedding 00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:22.860 light on surprising ways to reduce chronic inflammation, 00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.180 including suggestions as simple as flossing your 00:06:26.180 --> 00:06:30.019 teeth. Inflammation is normally beneficial, triggered 00:06:30.019 --> 00:06:33.040 by the immune system to help the body fight illness 00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:36.819 and repair injuries. However, when inflammation 00:06:36.819 --> 00:06:39.779 becomes chronic, it can lead to serious health 00:06:39.779 --> 00:06:43.800 issues. David L. Katz explains that chronic inflammation 00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:47.519 is a key pathway to major chronic diseases, like 00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:52.040 cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Fortunately, 00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:55.279 simple lifestyle modifications can help reduce 00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:58.939 inflammation, such as managing stress, exercising 00:06:58.939 --> 00:07:03.930 regularly, and improving oral hygiene. Engaging 00:07:03.930 --> 00:07:07.149 with nature and cultivating strong social connections 00:07:07.149 --> 00:07:12.629 can also be beneficial. In business news, living 00:07:12.629 --> 00:07:16.069 with family is not a last resort anymore. It's 00:07:16.069 --> 00:07:19.970 the plan. As the cost of living rises for Americans, 00:07:20.329 --> 00:07:22.329 many are moving back in with their families. 00:07:23.170 --> 00:07:26.290 However, a growing number of solo -agers do not 00:07:26.290 --> 00:07:30.350 have this option. Purpose -built intergenerational 00:07:30.350 --> 00:07:33.870 communities are a promising solution. The number 00:07:33.870 --> 00:07:36.370 of people living in multi -generational households 00:07:36.370 --> 00:07:41.209 quadrupled from 1971 to 2021, according to Pew 00:07:41.209 --> 00:07:44.449 Research. Cost savings are driving this trend, 00:07:44.889 --> 00:07:47.889 allowing families to split expenses and reduce 00:07:47.889 --> 00:07:51.290 social isolation. Experts warn that there is 00:07:51.290 --> 00:07:54.670 no one -size -fits all -housing solution, as 00:07:54.670 --> 00:07:57.589 individuals have vastly different needs and preferences. 00:07:58.970 --> 00:08:03.100 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 1 % over the 00:08:03.100 --> 00:08:09.240 weekend to $92 ,000. Ethereum is up 1 % to just 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:15.259 over $3 ,000. And XRP is down 2 % to $2 .08. 00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:21.839 Moving on to a more local vibe. In our community 00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:24.860 spotlight on health and wellness, we are working 00:08:24.860 --> 00:08:27.819 with a national Pilates studio to bring you some 00:08:27.819 --> 00:08:32.470 free classes, so listen up.

And now, back to the show. Let's talk 00:09:09.059 --> 00:09:12.860 tech. Job seekers are discovering a new source 00:09:12.860 --> 00:09:15.779 of income, training artificial intelligence to 00:09:15.779 --> 00:09:19.840 perform their former roles. Mercor, an artificial 00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:23.779 intelligence startup valued at $10 billion, employs 00:09:23.779 --> 00:09:26.279 tens of thousands of white -collar contractors. 00:09:26.809 --> 00:09:29.690 These workers review and critique the output 00:09:29.690 --> 00:09:32.429 of large language models that power chatbots 00:09:32.429 --> 00:09:36.629 and other tools. Experts in various fields are 00:09:36.629 --> 00:09:39.389 sought, including psychologists and filmmakers, 00:09:39.870 --> 00:09:45.149 with earnings up to $250 an hour. Despite concerns 00:09:45.149 --> 00:09:48.350 about job losses, many see their role in ensuring 00:09:48.350 --> 00:09:52.450 AI produces thoughtful outcomes. The nature of 00:09:52.450 --> 00:09:55.049 this work raises questions about the future of 00:09:55.049 --> 00:10:02.940 employment in their fields. The Golden Globes 00:10:02.940 --> 00:10:05.940 has made a concerted effort to improve its reputation 00:10:05.940 --> 00:10:09.860 after a controversy over its membership in 2021 00:10:09.860 --> 00:10:13.100 led to a temporary suspension of the telecast. 00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:16.519 Under new ownership, structural changes have 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:18.960 been implemented, including no longer paying 00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:22.620 a salary to legacy voters. Nikki Glaser's charming 00:10:22.620 --> 00:10:25.320 hosting managed to balance humor and excitement, 00:10:25.779 --> 00:10:28.240 making the audience laugh with her playful jabs 00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:32.100 at celebrities. Despite the positive moments, 00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:35.639 distracting stunts like statistics from polymarket 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:39.840 and non -jokes cluttered the ceremony. Chasing 00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:42.840 too many contradictory aims, the gloat's risks 00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:45.379 frustrating its audience while attempting to 00:10:45.379 --> 00:10:49.580 grow. Well, all righty, folks. It's time for 00:10:49.580 --> 00:10:53.610 the quote of the day. And today, our quote comes 00:10:53.610 --> 00:10:56.909 from the American writer and philosopher, Albert 00:10:56.909 --> 00:11:08.029 Hubbard.
