and it's Thursday, March 5th. You'll be interested

00:00:13.529 --> 00:00:19.410

Churchill delivered his famous Iron Curtain speech

00:00:22.670 --> 00:00:25.809
in Fulton, Missouri, calling for Anglo -American

00:00:25.809 --> 00:00:29.210
leadership to defend democratic values and to

00:00:29.210 --> 00:00:33.130
recognize a shifting post -war order. His clear

00:00:33.130 --> 00:00:35.890
appeal for unity helped shape public understanding

00:00:35.890 --> 00:00:39.729
of a new geopolitical divide and inspired cooperative

00:00:39.729 --> 00:00:42.829
strategies that guided Western policy in the

00:00:42.829 --> 00:00:48.189

00:03:56.180 --> 00:03:59.000
has filed a lawsuit against its former cookie

00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:03.020
baking partner, Ferrero USA, and its subsidiary,

00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:06.360
Little Brownie Bakers, alleging a breach of contract

00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:10.919
in 2024. According to the organization, the agreement

00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:14.810
was intended to last through 2025. but Ferrero

00:04:14.810 --> 00:04:18.550
USA abruptly canceled it, causing significant

00:04:18.550 --> 00:04:23.370
financial harm. Carol Dedrich, CEO of Girl Scout

00:04:23.370 --> 00:04:26.649
San Diego, stated that the actions taken by the

00:04:26.649 --> 00:04:29.949
company diminished trust and took away critical

00:04:29.949 --> 00:04:33.550
funding for girl programs. The fallout led to

00:04:33.550 --> 00:04:36.730
an emergency transition to a new baker, resulting

00:04:36.730 --> 00:04:40.649
in lost revenue and the elimination of 25 positions.

00:04:41.259 --> 00:04:44.819
The lawsuit claims that Operation Thin Mint also

00:04:44.819 --> 00:04:48.379
suffered with a decline of more than 21 ,000

00:04:48.379 --> 00:04:58.019
donated packages. Now onto sports. This season,

00:04:58.180 --> 00:05:00.920
a narrative has taken hold in the National Basketball

00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:04.040
Association. The Eastern Conference is stronger

00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.800
than expected, while the Western Conference remains

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:10.100
dominant. Through Monday's games, Western teams

00:05:10.100 --> 00:05:13.959
hold a slight edge, with a 50 .6 % win rate against

00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:17.379
the East. Four teams from the East are projected

00:05:17.379 --> 00:05:20.639
to win over 50 games, suggesting parity in the

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:24.279
league. However, despite the competition, the

00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.160
West vows more star power and depth, leading

00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:30.699
to intriguing playoff matchups ahead. The Eastern

00:05:30.699 --> 00:05:33.199
Conference champion will need to earn their final's

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:36.199
berth, overcoming formidable opponents along

00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:41.100
the way. In local sports, Joe Musgrove is making

00:05:41.100 --> 00:05:44.199
strides in his recovery from Tony John surgery,

00:05:44.579 --> 00:05:47.339
with Padres manager Craig Stammen expressing

00:05:47.339 --> 00:05:50.379
confidence in his potential to be the best pitcher

00:05:50.379 --> 00:05:54.060
in the National League. Musgrove recently pitched

00:05:54.060 --> 00:05:56.540
in a televised game for the first time since

00:05:56.540 --> 00:06:01.079
October 2, 2024, showing positive signs despite

00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:03.519
needing patience during the recovery process.

00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:07.139
He completed 60 pitches against Great Britain,

00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:10.360
demonstrating a slight increase in velocity compared

00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.879
to previous outings. As the likely number three

00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:16.899
starter, Musgrove could play a crucial role in

00:06:16.899 --> 00:06:19.720
stabilizing the Padres' rotation as this season

00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:25.639
approaches. In top news, Apple Chief Executive

00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:29.040
Officer Tim Cook promised a big week of product

00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:31.939

00:06:58.889 --> 00:07:04.529
begins at $599. Additionally, Apple introduced

00:07:04.529 --> 00:07:09.290
the MacBook Neo, priced at $599, targeting budget

00:07:09.290 --> 00:07:12.910
-conscious buyers. The new monitors start at

00:07:12.910 --> 00:07:17.449
$1 ,600 for the Studio Display, and $3 ,300 for

00:07:17.449 --> 00:07:23.170
the Studio Display XDR. In business news, in

00:07:23.170 --> 00:07:26.009
a defeat for the Trump administration, a federal

00:07:26.009 --> 00:07:28.930
judge in New York ruled that companies that paid

00:07:28.930 --> 00:07:32.350
tariffs are due refunds. Judge Richard Eaton

00:07:32.350 --> 00:07:35.129
of the U .S. Court of International Trade stated

00:07:35.129 --> 00:07:37.750
that all importers of record were entitled to

00:07:37.750 --> 00:07:40.449
benefit from the Supreme Court ruling that struck

00:07:40.449 --> 00:07:43.670
down these tariffs. The federal government could

00:07:43.670 --> 00:07:48.550
ultimately be liable for refunds worth $175 billion.

00:07:49.990 --> 00:07:52.470
Barry Appleton commented that this ruling is

00:07:52.470 --> 00:07:55.170
a great decision for importers and consumers

00:07:55.170 --> 00:07:59.629
who paid tariffs. In crypto movement, Bitcoin

00:07:59.629 --> 00:08:05.870
is up 7%, to about $73 ,000. Ethereum is up 7

00:08:05.870 --> 00:08:13.410

you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk

00:09:08.330 --> 00:09:13.070
tech. OpenAI's Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman

00:09:13.070 --> 00:09:15.909
spoke at the Artificial Intelligence Summit in

00:09:15.909 --> 00:09:20.070
New Delhi, India on Thursday, February 19th,

00:09:20.269 --> 00:09:25.049
2026. And now artificial intelligence has inspired

00:09:25.049 --> 00:09:27.970
two documentaries that explore its potential

00:09:27.970 --> 00:09:31.929
dangers and benefits. The films De -Faking Sam

00:09:31.929 --> 00:09:35.710
Altman and The AI Doc investigate the technology's

00:09:35.710 --> 00:09:38.909
implications amid rising concerns about job loss

00:09:38.909 --> 00:09:43.129
and human intelligence erosion. Adam Beliloff,

00:09:43.389 --> 00:09:46.370
director of De -Faking Sam Altman, highlights

00:09:46.370 --> 00:09:49.370
the importance of confronting anxieties surrounding

00:09:49.370 --> 00:09:53.389
artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, the AI doc

00:09:53.389 --> 00:09:57.009
examines the divide between pessimists and optimists

00:09:57.009 --> 00:10:00.929
regarding artificial intelligence's future. As

00:10:00.929 --> 00:10:03.710
the debate intensifies, the documentaries offer

00:10:03.710 --> 00:10:06.889
unique perspectives on this evolving technology.

00:10:09.970 --> 00:10:14.370
And in entertainment news, Apple succeeded when

00:10:14.370 --> 00:10:16.929
it brought Formula One to the big screen last

00:10:16.929 --> 00:10:20.059
year. It hopes many of those viewers will watch

00:10:20.059 --> 00:10:22.720
on their televisions and mobile devices when

00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:26.019
the season begins this weekend with the Australian

00:10:26.019 --> 00:10:29.779
Grand Prix, as Apple TV begins its stint as Formula

00:10:29.779 --> 00:10:33.379
One's United States broadcast partner. Apple

00:10:33.379 --> 00:10:36.120
reached a five -year deal with the global motorsport

00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:40.740
series last fall, averaging $150 million per

00:10:40.740 --> 00:10:44.799
year. At EQ, Apple's senior vice president of

00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:47.759
services, stated that there is a great opportunity

00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:51.220
for Formula One and Apple TV to grow the sport

00:10:51.220 --> 00:10:56.299
significantly. Apple will show races in 4K Dolby

00:10:56.299 --> 00:11:00.820
Vision, with immersive 5 .1 surround sound, available

00:11:00.820 --> 00:11:04.039
to Apple TV subscribers, with some races for

00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:08.600
non -subscribers. Well, alrighty folks, it's

00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:12.559
time for the quote of the day. And today, our

00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:14.899
quote comes from the American journalist and

00:11:14.899 --> 00:11:28.120
