00:04:26.060 --> 00:04:28.660
Sean Payton give the Patriots bullet -in board

00:04:28.660 --> 00:04:32.160
material with his Super Bowl remark? The Broncos

00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:35.740
might be underdogs entering Sunday's AFC Championship

00:04:35.740 --> 00:04:39.639
game against the Patriots. However, Broncos head

00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.920
coach Sean Payton is confident in his team, even

00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:46.879
without starting quarterback Bo Nix. When asked

00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:49.779
if he had a message for fans, Payton remarked,

00:04:49.819 --> 00:04:52.079
Well, they're going to have plenty of rest after

00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:55.600
this one, two weeks. The Super Bowl will be held

00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.860
in Santa Clara, California, at Levi's Stadium.

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.860
Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel expressed that

00:05:02.860 --> 00:05:06.740
his team is plenty motivated for the game. Despite

00:05:06.740 --> 00:05:09.560
Denver being the top seed, the Patriots are favored

00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:13.060
by four and a half points. Kinkoff Sunday is

00:05:13.060 --> 00:05:18.079
at three Eastern on CBS. And the Seahawks, thankfully,

00:05:18.379 --> 00:05:20.720
have a couple of more practices before the team

00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:24.160
is fully ready to take on the Rams in the NFC

00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.259
Championship game that gives banged -up players

00:05:27.259 --> 00:05:30.600
more time to heal. As Seattle already knew it

00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:33.639
would be without running back, Zach Charbonnet,

00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:37.459
who tore his ACL against the 49ers in the divisional

00:05:37.459 --> 00:05:40.529
round, The biggest question is who will be blocking

00:05:40.529 --> 00:05:43.990
for them on the far left side of the line. Head

00:05:43.990 --> 00:05:47.009
coach Mike McDonald believes left tackle Charles

00:05:47.009 --> 00:05:49.790
Cross has a good chance to play against the Rams.

00:05:50.610 --> 00:05:53.329
Otherwise, Seattle might have real problems.

00:05:54.029 --> 00:05:58.970
Kickoff Sunday is at 6 .30 Eastern on Fox. In

00:05:58.970 --> 00:06:03.949
local sports. San Diegan Sean McCaveny recently

00:06:03.949 --> 00:06:07.769
took on an extreme athletic challenge. by participating

00:06:07.769 --> 00:06:11.610
in the Antarctic Ice Ultra, a 50 -kilometer race

00:06:11.610 --> 00:06:14.850
across the frozen surface of Antarctica in sub

00:06:14.850 --> 00:06:18.709
-zero temperatures. McAvaney, a graduate of Point

00:06:18.709 --> 00:06:21.470
Loma High School, completed the race in seven

00:06:21.470 --> 00:06:24.889
hours and 55 minutes, winning his age division.

00:06:25.730 --> 00:06:28.550
He described the experience as one of the hardest

00:06:28.550 --> 00:06:31.189
marathons in the world and shared how he had

00:06:31.189 --> 00:06:33.910
to balance his clothing to avoid hypothermia.

00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:37.600
McCaveny's adventure included a breathtaking

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:40.420
encounter with a colony of emperor penguins,

00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.399
marking it as a top three moment in his life.

00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:49.740
In top news, an exclusive look inside the largest

00:06:49.740 --> 00:06:52.319
effort ever mounted to keep the Great Barrier

00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.480
Reef alive reveals that Australia is doing everything

00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:59.000
to protect its iconic ecosystem, except perhaps

00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:02.620
the one thing that truly matters. Peter Harrison,

00:07:02.939 --> 00:07:05.860
a marine scientist, noted a smell in the water

00:07:05.860 --> 00:07:09.019
while searching for coral spawn. During a few

00:07:09.019 --> 00:07:11.600
nights in the Australian summer, corals release

00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.019
millions of sperm and eggs, known as spawn, which

00:07:15.019 --> 00:07:18.160
float to the surface. The Great Barrier Reef

00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.879
could collapse by the end of the century without

00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:24.740
steep cuts to carbon emissions. With nearly $300

00:07:24.740 --> 00:07:28.279
million in backing, scientists are working tirelessly

00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:31.600
through the reef restoration and adaptation program,

00:07:31.980 --> 00:07:35.100
focusing on assisted reproduction to help coral

00:07:35.100 --> 00:07:40.279
thrive. In business news, the United States and

00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:43.139
China have finalized a deal to transfer control

00:07:43.139 --> 00:07:46.620
of TikTok's US operations to a group of investors

00:07:46.620 --> 00:07:51.000
supported by President Donald Trump. TikTok announced

00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:54.680
that a new company, TikTok USDS Joint Venture

00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:58.100
will operate under strict safeguards to protect

00:07:58.100 --> 00:08:02.319
national security. ByteDance will maintain a

00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:06.360
19 .9 % stake in the US operation governed by

00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:09.680
a seven -member board mostly comprised of Americans.

00:08:10.579 --> 00:08:13.060
The joint venture includes notable investors

00:08:13.060 --> 00:08:16.980
like Oracle and Silver Lake, concluding a lengthy

00:08:16.980 --> 00:08:20.480
debate over the app's Chinese ownership. TikTok

00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.920
will continue to provide a global experience

00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:27.579
for its users. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is

00:08:27.579 --> 00:08:33.000
down 3 % for the week to about $90 ,000. Ethereum

00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:38.840

00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:45.840
% to $1 .92. Moving on to a more local vibe.

00:08:46.669 --> 00:08:49.830
In our community spotlight on health and wellness,

00:08:50.509 --> 00:08:52.889

00:09:28.149 --> 00:09:32.190
Sunny Morning sent you by. And now back to the

00:09:32.190 --> 00:09:39.009
show. Let's talk tech. Apple's iOS 26 has introduced

00:09:39.009 --> 00:09:42.129
a bug affecting the virtual keyboard on iPhones.

00:09:42.379 --> 00:09:46.419
leading to unexpected typos. Users have reported

00:09:46.419 --> 00:09:49.139
that the keyboard occasionally replaces the correct

00:09:49.139 --> 00:09:51.919
letters with incorrect ones, even when the right

00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:55.740
key is tapped. A YouTuber named Mishi Nekomichi

00:09:55.740 --> 00:09:58.419
documented this issue, showing that pressing

00:09:58.419 --> 00:10:02.440
U can result in J. The problem appears to occur

00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:05.519
after the keyboard recognizes input, not due

00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.120
to autocorrect. Currently, Apple has not acknowledged

00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:13.429
the issue. But iOS 26 .1 isn't testing, and a

00:10:13.429 --> 00:10:19.070
fix may be on the horizon. The Entertainment

00:10:19.070 --> 00:10:23.409
News. Chris Pratt's sci -fi thriller Mercy will

00:10:23.409 --> 00:10:25.970
aim to knock down the James Cameron juggernaut

00:10:25.970 --> 00:10:29.549
avatar, Fire and Ash, at the weekend box office.

00:10:30.629 --> 00:10:34.409
The film is targeting $10 million to $13 million

00:10:34.409 --> 00:10:38.730
from 3 ,400 North American theaters over the

00:10:38.730 --> 00:10:42.960
weekend. Meanwhile, Avatar Fire and Ash is aiming

00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:47.320
for $8 million to $10 million in its sixth weekend.

00:10:48.379 --> 00:10:51.720
This film, which cost $60 million to produce,

00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:54.879
takes place in the near future as a detective

00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:57.860
stands trial for allegedly murdering his wife.

00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:01.879
Cinema operators are hoping the momentum sustains

00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:06.440
despite a typically slower January. Well, all

00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:09.100
righty, folks. It's time for the quote of the

00:11:09.100 --> 00:11:13.299
day. And today, our quote comes from the American

00:11:13.299 --> 00:11:17.240
writer and humorist, James Sturber. And he said,

00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:31.279
And that's a wrap for this morning. You can check
