00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:17.600
news, drivers for Uber and Lyft rallied at three

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.860
California city halls, highlighting a significant

00:04:20.860 --> 00:04:24.420
lawsuit over wage theft claims potentially worth

00:04:24.420 --> 00:04:28.860
billions of dollars. As negotiations for a settlement

00:04:28.860 --> 00:04:32.319
are underway, the lawsuit seeks back pay and

00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:36.379
damages for drivers who worked from 2016 to 2020

00:04:36.379 --> 00:04:39.319
prior to a ballot initiative that classified

00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:43.319
them as independent contractors. Nicole Moore,

00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:46.459
president of Rideshare Drivers United, emphasizes

00:04:46.459 --> 00:04:49.620
the need for accountability, stating that the

00:04:49.620 --> 00:04:52.480
companies have not complied with Assembly Bill

00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:56.800
5. The lawsuit could affect approximately 250

00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:01.000
,000 drivers, with estimates of owed wages reaching

00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:11.980
at least $1 .3 billion. Now on to sports. In

00:05:11.980 --> 00:05:15.500
a significant blow for the Atlanta Braves, outfielder

00:05:15.500 --> 00:05:18.819
Jurickson Profar has received an 80 -game suspension

00:05:18.819 --> 00:05:21.860
from Major League Baseball after testing positive

00:05:21.860 --> 00:05:26.079
for a performance -enhancing drug. The 32 -year

00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:28.420
-old left fielder had only played four games

00:05:28.420 --> 00:05:31.680
this season before the announcement. Profar's

00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:34.939
suspension comes after an impressive 2024 season

00:05:34.939 --> 00:05:38.560
where he hit 24 home runs and earned a Silver

00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:42.430
Slugger Award. The Braves, already struggling

00:05:42.430 --> 00:05:45.550
without their star player Ronald Acuna Jr., will

00:05:45.550 --> 00:05:48.350
likely turn to Alex Verdugo to fill the gap in

00:05:48.350 --> 00:05:51.009
left field as they face a tough start to the

00:05:51.009 --> 00:05:57.009
season. In local sports. Last night at Petco

00:05:57.009 --> 00:06:00.769
Park, the Padres dominated the Guardians 7 -2.

00:06:01.850 --> 00:06:05.410
Key moments included Sheets doubling in the second

00:06:05.410 --> 00:06:09.129
with Merrill and Cronenworth scoring. and Hayward's

00:06:09.129 --> 00:06:14.029
sacrifice fly bringing home Bogarts. Junis sealed

00:06:14.029 --> 00:06:17.310
the win, pitching five innings with seven strikeouts.

00:06:18.329 --> 00:06:22.589
Ortiz took the loss for Cleveland. The Friars,

00:06:22.589 --> 00:06:27.629
now unbeaten at 5 -0, showcase their strong offense

00:06:27.629 --> 00:06:30.750
and solid pitching, continuing their perfect

00:06:30.750 --> 00:06:34.930
start in America's finest city. Tonight, the

00:06:34.930 --> 00:06:38.879

at Petco at 640. Michael King faces Logan Allen.

00:06:45.300 --> 00:06:49.420
Last night, the Lakers defeated the Rockets 104

00:06:49.420 --> 00:06:55.439
-98 at the Crypto .com Arena. Luka Doncic led

00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:59.579
the team with 20 points and 9 assists. The Lakers

00:06:59.579 --> 00:07:03.500
shot 39 .3 % from the field, while Houston struggled

00:07:03.500 --> 00:07:08.199
with 44%. The Lakers' record now stands at 45

00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:11.480

Adrian Kemp. Shining with 31 goals and 39 points,

00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:39.839
leads L .A., who are slight underdogs, by one

00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:46.319
and a half. In top news. Yesterday, SpaceX successfully

00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:48.879
launched its sixth private astronaut flight,

00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:52.699
called FRAM -2, led by crypto entrepreneur Chan

00:07:52.699 --> 00:07:56.180
Wang. The mission aims to orbit Earth from pole

00:07:56.180 --> 00:07:59.560
to pole, a path previously untraveled by humans.

00:08:00.589 --> 00:08:03.449
The crew, including a virtual reality director,

00:08:03.769 --> 00:08:07.129
a robotics researcher, and an adventurer, embarked

00:08:07.129 --> 00:08:09.370
from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

00:08:09.930 --> 00:08:13.310
They will conduct 22 research experiments on

00:08:13.310 --> 00:08:15.550
the effects of spaceflight on the human body

00:08:15.550 --> 00:08:19.209
during their three - to five -day journey. This

00:08:19.209 --> 00:08:22.230
mission underscores SpaceX's dominance in private

00:08:22.230 --> 00:08:24.990
spaceflight, with growing interest from wealthy

00:08:24.990 --> 00:08:29.310
tourists and government entities alike. In business

00:08:29.310 --> 00:08:33.480
news... TikTok Shop, despite being a latecomer,

00:08:33.580 --> 00:08:36.120
is quickly gaining ground in the social shopping

00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:39.840
arena. Launched in the United States in 2023,

00:08:40.379 --> 00:08:44.100
it has attracted 47 million shoppers who spend

00:08:44.100 --> 00:08:48.120

low prices like Temu with in -app shopping, keeping

00:08:55.379 --> 00:08:59.409
users engaged without redirecting them. Experts

00:08:59.409 --> 00:09:02.009
highlight the innovative shoppertainment concept,

00:09:02.269 --> 00:09:05.350
where influencers like Lexi Rosenstein thrive.

00:09:06.129 --> 00:09:09.570
However, Tech Talk Shop faces uncertainty due

00:09:09.570 --> 00:09:12.110
to a recent law requiring its parent company

00:09:12.110 --> 00:09:16.870
to sell U .S. operations by April 5, 2024, or

00:09:16.870 --> 00:09:22.129
face a ban. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up

00:09:22.129 --> 00:09:27.919

Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent

00:10:23.429 --> 00:10:29.279
you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk

00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:32.620
tech. The Zelle app will disappear on Tuesday,

00:10:32.820 --> 00:10:35.179
but there are still plenty of ways to send money

00:10:35.179 --> 00:10:39.100
digitally. This change only affects the standalone

00:10:39.100 --> 00:10:41.840
app. You can continue to use Zelle through your

00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:45.620
bank's mobile app or website. Zelle has seen

00:10:45.620 --> 00:10:49.320
a decline in standalone usage, with over 2 ,200

00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:52.639
financial institutions now offering the service.

00:10:54.059 --> 00:10:57.039
Other options for digital payments include Venmo,

00:10:57.139 --> 00:11:00.179
PayPal, Apple Wallet, Revolut, and Cash App.

00:11:01.059 --> 00:11:04.100
Always take precautions, as these services can

00:11:04.100 --> 00:11:07.679
attract scammers. Only send money to those you

00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:10.559
know and trust, and be wary of urgent messages

00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:20.529
or too -good -to -be -true offers. while A. Coyote

00:11:20.529 --> 00:11:24.250
is heading to court as Coyote vs. Acme finally

00:11:24.250 --> 00:11:28.070
reaches theaters. The film, which explores the

00:11:28.070 --> 00:11:30.649
cartoon character's legal battle against the

00:11:30.649 --> 00:11:34.149
Acme Corporation, was initially shelved by Warner

00:11:34.149 --> 00:11:39.350
Bros. in 2023. However, backlash led to its acquisition

00:11:39.350 --> 00:11:42.230
for global distribution by Ketchup Entertainment

00:11:42.230 --> 00:11:47.799
for around $50 million. Ketchup's CEO... Gareth

00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:50.500
West expressed excitement about bringing this

00:11:50.500 --> 00:11:53.759
perfect blend of nostalgia and modern storytelling

00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:58.559
to audiences. Starring John Cena and Lena Condor,

00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:01.539
the film is set for a long -awaited release in

2026, following significant production efforts

00:12:04.980 --> 00:12:08.100
and passionate dedication from its cast and crew.

00:12:09.179 --> 00:12:12.580
Well, all righty, folks, it's time for the quote

00:12:12.580 --> 00:12:16.379
of the day. And today... Our quote comes from

00:12:16.379 --> 00:12:19.059
the American entrepreneur and business magnate,

00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:24.720
Elon Musk. And he said, some people don't like

00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:27.379
change, but you need to embrace change if the

00:12:27.379 --> 00:12:31.759
alternative is disaster. And that's a wrap for

00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:34.580
this morning. You can check out our Instagram,

00:12:34.879 --> 00:12:38.340
