a west wind around 5 to 10 miles per hour. Sunday

00:02:50.110 --> 00:02:52.770

00:04:26.220 --> 00:04:28.819
Sean Payton give the Patriots bullet -in board

00:04:28.819 --> 00:04:32.339
material with his Super Bowl remark? The Broncos

00:04:32.339 --> 00:04:35.899
might be underdogs entering Sunday's AFC Championship

00:04:35.899 --> 00:04:39.819
game against the Patriots. However, Broncos head

00:04:39.819 --> 00:04:43.100
coach Sean Payton is confident in his team, even

00:04:43.100 --> 00:04:47.040
without starting quarterback Bo Nix. When asked

00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.959
if he had a message for fans, Payton remarked,

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.240
Well, they're going to have plenty of rest after

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.759
this one, two weeks. The Super Bowl will be held

00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.019
in Santa Clara, California, at Levi's Stadium.

00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.019
Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel expressed that

00:05:03.019 --> 00:05:06.899
his team is plenty motivated for the game. Despite

00:05:06.899 --> 00:05:09.720
Denver being the top seed, the Patriots are favored

00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:13.220
by four and a half points. Kinkoff Sunday is

00:05:13.220 --> 00:05:18.240
at three Eastern on CBS. And the Seahawks, thankfully,

00:05:18.420 --> 00:05:20.879
have a couple of more practices before the team

00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:24.319
is fully ready to take on the Rams in the NFC

00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:27.420
Championship game that gives banged -up players

00:05:27.420 --> 00:05:30.759
more time to heal. As Seattle already knew it

00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.879
would be without running back, Zach Charbonnet,

00:05:34.100 --> 00:05:37.620
who tore his ACL against the 49ers in the divisional

00:05:37.620 --> 00:05:40.689
round, The biggest question is who will be blocking

00:05:40.689 --> 00:05:44.129
for them on the far left side of the line. Head

00:05:44.129 --> 00:05:47.170
coach Mike McDonald believes left tackle Charles

00:05:47.170 --> 00:05:49.970
Cross has a good chance to play against the Rams.

00:05:50.750 --> 00:05:53.490
Otherwise, Seattle might have real problems.

00:05:54.209 --> 00:05:59.129
Kickoff Sunday is at 6 .30 Eastern on Fox. In

00:05:59.129 --> 00:06:04.129
local sports. San Diegan Sean McCaveny recently

00:06:04.129 --> 00:06:07.930
took on an extreme athletic challenge. by participating

00:06:07.930 --> 00:06:11.769
in the Antarctic Ice Ultra, a 50 -kilometer race

00:06:11.769 --> 00:06:15.029
across the frozen surface of Antarctica in sub

00:06:15.029 --> 00:06:18.889
-zero temperatures. McAvaney, a graduate of Point

00:06:18.889 --> 00:06:21.629
Loma High School, completed the race in seven

00:06:21.629 --> 00:06:25.069
hours and 55 minutes, winning his age division.

00:06:25.889 --> 00:06:28.709
He described the experience as one of the hardest

00:06:28.709 --> 00:06:31.350
marathons in the world and shared how he had

00:06:31.350 --> 00:06:34.110
to balance his clothing to avoid hypothermia.

00:06:35.259 --> 00:06:37.759
McCaveny's adventure included a breathtaking

00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:40.579
encounter with a colony of emperor penguins,

00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:43.639
marking it as a top three moment in his life.

00:06:45.779 --> 00:06:49.899
In top news, an exclusive look inside the largest

00:06:49.899 --> 00:06:52.480
effort ever mounted to keep the Great Barrier

00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:55.639
Reef alive reveals that Australia is doing everything

00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:59.160
to protect its iconic ecosystem, except perhaps

00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:02.779
the one thing that truly matters. Peter Harrison,

00:07:03.100 --> 00:07:06.019
a marine scientist, noted a smell in the water

00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:09.180
while searching for coral spawn. During a few

00:07:09.180 --> 00:07:11.759
nights in the Australian summer, corals release

00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:15.199
millions of sperm and eggs, known as spawn, which

00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:18.319
float to the surface. The Great Barrier Reef

00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:21.060
could collapse by the end of the century without

00:07:21.060 --> 00:07:24.920
steep cuts to carbon emissions. With nearly $300

00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:28.459
million in backing, scientists are working tirelessly

00:07:28.459 --> 00:07:31.759
through the reef restoration and adaptation program,

00:07:32.100 --> 00:07:35.279
focusing on assisted reproduction to help coral

00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:40.459
thrive. In business news, the United States and

00:07:40.459 --> 00:07:43.300
China have finalized a deal to transfer control

00:07:43.300 --> 00:07:46.779
of TikTok's US operations to a group of investors

00:07:46.779 --> 00:07:51.160
supported by President Donald Trump. TikTok announced

00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:54.839
that a new company, TikTok USDS Joint Venture

00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:58.259
will operate under strict safeguards to protect

00:07:58.259 --> 00:08:02.459
national security. ByteDance will maintain a

00:08:02.459 --> 00:08:06.519
19 .9 % stake in the US operation governed by

00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:09.839
a seven -member board mostly comprised of Americans.

00:08:10.740 --> 00:08:13.220
The joint venture includes notable investors

00:08:13.220 --> 00:08:17.139
like Oracle and Silver Lake, concluding a lengthy

00:08:17.139 --> 00:08:20.639
debate over the app's Chinese ownership. TikTok

00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:23.100
will continue to provide a global experience

00:08:23.100 --> 00:08:27.759
for its users. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is

00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:33.159
down 3 % for the week to about $90 ,000. Ethereum

00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:39.019
is down 7 .5 % to $3 ,000. And XRP is down 2

00:08:39.019 --> 00:08:46.019
% to $1 .92. Moving on to a more local vibe.

00:09:28.309 --> 00:09:32.350
Sunny Morning sent you by. And now back to the

00:09:32.350 --> 00:09:39.169
show. Let's talk tech. Apple's iOS 26 has introduced

00:09:39.169 --> 00:09:42.309
a bug affecting the virtual keyboard on iPhones.

00:09:42.549 --> 00:09:46.610
leading to unexpected typos. Users have reported

00:09:46.610 --> 00:09:49.330
that the keyboard occasionally replaces the correct

00:09:49.330 --> 00:09:52.090
letters with incorrect ones, even when the right

00:09:52.090 --> 00:09:55.889
key is tapped. A YouTuber named Mishi Nekomichi

00:09:55.889 --> 00:09:58.570
documented this issue, showing that pressing

00:09:58.570 --> 00:10:02.590
U can result in J. The problem appears to occur

00:10:02.590 --> 00:10:05.669
after the keyboard recognizes input, not due

00:10:05.669 --> 00:10:09.269
to autocorrect. Currently, Apple has not acknowledged

00:10:09.269 --> 00:10:13.590
the issue. But iOS 26 .1 isn't testing, and a

00:10:13.590 --> 00:10:19.250
fix may be on the horizon. The Entertainment

00:10:19.250 --> 00:10:23.029
News. Chris Pratt's sci -fi thriller, Mercy,

00:10:23.409 --> 00:10:26.129
will aim to knock down the James Cameron juggernaut

00:10:26.129 --> 00:10:29.710
avatar, Fire and Ash, at the weekend box office.

00:10:30.789 --> 00:10:34.549
The film is targeting $10 million to $13 million

00:10:34.549 --> 00:10:38.889
from 3 ,400 North American theaters over the

00:10:38.889 --> 00:10:43.139
weekend. Meanwhile, Avatar Fire and Ash is aiming

00:10:43.139 --> 00:10:47.480
for $8 million to $10 million in its sixth weekend.

00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:51.879
This film, which cost $60 million to produce,

00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:55.039
takes place in the near future as a detective

00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:58.000
stands trial for allegedly murdering his wife.

00:10:59.220 --> 00:11:02.080
Cinema operators are hoping the momentum sustains

00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:06.639
despite a typically slower January. Well, all

00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:09.320
righty, folks. It's time for the quote of the

00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:13.519
day. And today, our quote comes from the American

00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:17.460
writer and humorist, James Sturber. And he said,

00:11:21.779 --> 00:11:31.600
