So stop on by and don't forget to tell them.

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:13.849
Sunny mornings send you. In local news, the tourism

00:04:13.849 --> 00:04:17.089
industry in San Diego is preparing for a potential

00:04:17.089 --> 00:04:21.529
downturn in 2025, which is raising some concerns.

00:04:22.629 --> 00:04:25.310
Carrie Capich, the chief operating officer of

00:04:25.310 --> 00:04:28.629
the San Diego Tourism Authority, noted in May,

00:04:29.110 --> 00:04:31.550
we are starting to see a slowdown, highlighting

00:04:31.550 --> 00:04:35.389
the impact on the region's economy. Despite this,

00:04:35.889 --> 00:04:39.839
2024 welcomed 32 million visitors. generating

00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:43.560
an impressive economic impact of $22 billion.

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.180
While hotel bookings have decreased compared

00:04:47.180 --> 00:04:50.839
to pre -pandemic levels, the city collected approximately

00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:55.920
$319 million in hotel taxes last year, significantly

00:04:55.920 --> 00:05:00.800
surpassing the $250 million collected in 2019.

00:05:01.579 --> 00:05:05.000
To attract more visitors, local leaders are focusing

00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.980
on partnerships with other cities in anticipation

00:05:07.980 --> 00:05:12.220
of major events like the World Cup and the 2028

00:05:12.220 --> 00:05:21.980
Olympics. Now on to sports. Less than 24 hours

00:05:21.980 --> 00:05:25.139
after handing Alabama its first loss in a season

00:05:25.139 --> 00:05:28.759
opener since 2001, Florida State quarterback

00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:32.730
Tony Castellanos is capitalizing on the weekend's

00:05:32.730 --> 00:05:36.269
biggest upset. His website is selling eight shirts

00:05:36.269 --> 00:05:39.329
and sweatshirts, taunting the number eight crimson

00:05:39.329 --> 00:05:43.449
tide over its 31 to 17 loss to the Seminoles.

00:05:44.569 --> 00:05:47.290
Some merchandise features the line, Nick can't

00:05:47.290 --> 00:05:50.069
save them, referencing his comments about the

00:05:50.069 --> 00:05:54.129
tide in June. On Saturday, he backed up those

00:05:54.129 --> 00:05:57.410
words, leading Florida State to a stunning victory.

00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:02.839
He completed 9 of 14 pass attempts for 152 yards

00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:06.399
against Alabama. The Seminoles will face East

00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:13.699
Texas, A &M next Saturday, in local sports. Yesterday

00:06:13.699 --> 00:06:16.660
afternoon at Petco Park, the Potteries lost to

00:06:16.660 --> 00:06:20.000
the Orioles 4 -3 in the first game of the series.

00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:24.139
Anz earned the win, while Adam took the loss

00:06:24.139 --> 00:06:26.860
after allowing a go -ahead run in the seventh

00:06:26.860 --> 00:06:30.819
inning. Jackson hit a solo home run for San Diego.

00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:34.639
The Friars finished with seven hits and left

00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.740
seven runners on base. The Padres record is now

00:06:38.740 --> 00:06:43.720
76 -62. Tonight, Hugh Darvish is on the bump

00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:47.060
for the Pots, taking on Orioles Tyler Wells.

00:06:48.540 --> 00:06:52.220
First pitch is at 640 at Petco Park under clear

00:06:52.220 --> 00:06:59.259
skies and 79 degrees. In top news, In a significant

00:06:59.259 --> 00:07:02.519
clash over Olympic surfing for the 2028 Games

00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:06.160
in Los Angeles, U .S. Ski and Snowboard is attempting

00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.480
to take control, but many surfers are resisting

00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:13.699
this move. Sophie Goldschmidt, the head of U

00:07:13.699 --> 00:07:16.300
.S. Ski and Snowboard, believes surfing aligns

00:07:16.300 --> 00:07:18.600
with their mission to support elite athletes.

00:07:19.740 --> 00:07:22.920
However, former champion surfer Ian Karens argues

00:07:22.920 --> 00:07:25.500
they are trying to ski -jack surfing from its

00:07:25.500 --> 00:07:29.750
rightful community. USA Surfing, the current

00:07:29.750 --> 00:07:32.850
governing body, is fighting back, citing recent

00:07:32.850 --> 00:07:36.689
investments and support from local leaders. The

00:07:36.689 --> 00:07:39.850
U .S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee will ultimately

00:07:39.850 --> 00:07:43.069
decide which organization will represent Olympic

00:07:43.069 --> 00:07:48.569
surfers. In business news, Kraft Heinz is approaching

00:07:48.569 --> 00:07:51.589
a significant breakup plan, according to sources

00:07:51.589 --> 00:07:54.980
familiar with the matter. This decision would

00:07:54.980 --> 00:07:57.300
effectively reverse much of the work from the

00:07:57.300 --> 00:08:01.500
notorious merger of Kraft and Heinz in 2015,

00:08:02.060 --> 00:08:04.639
orchestrated by Warren Buffett and Brazilian

00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:09.480
private equity firm 3G Capital Partners. A transaction

00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:12.220
could be announced as early as next week, but

00:08:12.220 --> 00:08:15.379
plans are subject to change. The Wall Street

00:08:15.379 --> 00:08:18.060
Journal reported that Kraft plans to spin off

00:08:18.060 --> 00:08:20.519
a substantial portion of its grocery business.

00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.779
potentially valued at as much as $20 billion.

00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:27.660
The split would occur amid a trend of corporate

00:08:27.660 --> 00:08:31.300
breakups in the food and beverage industry. In

00:08:31.300 --> 00:08:35.700
crypto movement, Bitcoin is down 3 % to about

00:08:35.700 --> 00:08:42.059
$110 ,000. Ethereum is down 8 % to just under

00:08:42.059 --> 00:08:47.419
$4 ,400. And XRP is down half a percent to $2

00:08:47.419 --> 00:08:55.450
.81. Moving on to a more local vibe. In our community

00:08:55.450 --> 00:08:58.450
spotlight on health and wellness, we are working

00:08:58.450 --> 00:09:01.409

be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by.

00:09:38.210 --> 00:09:44.250
And now back to the show. Let's talk tech. The

00:09:44.250 --> 00:09:47.450
digital tokens backing the Trump family's cryptocurrency

00:09:47.450 --> 00:09:50.840
venture. World Liberty Financial fell in value

00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:54.320
on Monday in their first day of trading. Known

00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:57.559
as World Liberty Tokens, they were sold to investors

00:09:57.559 --> 00:10:00.620
after the Trump family launched the venture last

00:10:00.620 --> 00:10:04.779
year. Investors voted in July to make them tradable,

00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:09.059
allowing for potential sales and purchases. Initially,

00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:12.580
the tokens traded above $0, but later fell by

00:10:12.580 --> 00:10:16.090
about 12%. bringing their market capitalization

00:10:16.090 --> 00:10:21.309
to just below $7 billion. Major exchanges, including

00:10:21.309 --> 00:10:26.389
Binance and OKEx, are offering the tokens. Critics

00:10:26.389 --> 00:10:29.190
argue that Trump family's involvement represents

00:10:29.190 --> 00:10:37.919
profound conflicts of interest. Alan Richen,

00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:41.379
known for Reacher, is making waves with his super

00:10:41.379 --> 00:10:44.379
unique film Motor City, which premieres in Venice

00:10:44.379 --> 00:10:48.580
on August 30th. This action thriller is almost

00:10:48.580 --> 00:10:52.019
entirely dialogue -free, allowing for an intense

00:10:52.019 --> 00:10:55.919
focus on physical performances and stylized visuals.

00:10:57.480 --> 00:11:00.320
Richen portrays a blue -collar character seeking

00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:03.200
revenge after losing his fience and freedom.

00:11:03.850 --> 00:11:06.850
He emphasizes the challenge and exhilaration

00:11:06.850 --> 00:11:10.190
of acting without dialogue, relying on internal

00:11:10.190 --> 00:11:14.509
emotions to convey his character's turmoil. Additionally,

00:11:14.629 --> 00:11:17.269
he produced the film aiming to elevate action

00:11:17.269 --> 00:11:21.190
cinema with a visceral experience. While rumors

00:11:21.190 --> 00:11:25.009
swirl about Batman, Richson remains open to future

00:11:25.009 --> 00:11:29.769
projects with DC. Well, all righty, folks. It's

00:11:29.769 --> 00:11:33.740
time for the quote of the day. And today... Our

00:11:33.740 --> 00:11:36.539
quote comes from the American novelist and short

00:11:36.539 --> 00:11:41.720
story writer Ray Bradbury. And he said, We are

00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:45.440
an impossibility in an impossible universe, highlighting

00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.919
the power of creativity and storytelling to transcend

00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:53.399
boundaries and inspire progress. And that's a

00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:56.269
wrap for this morning. You can check out our

00:11:56.269 --> 00:12:00.090
Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating

00:12:00.090 --> 00:12:03.769

Have an amazing day, my good friends. We'll see

00:12:07.549 --> 00:12:10.690
