I'm your host, Melissa, 00:00:08.650 --> 00:00:12.890 and it's Thursday, March 5th. You'll be interested 00:00:12.890 --> 00:00:18.789 to know. 80 years ago, today, in 1946, Winston 00:00:18.789 --> 00:00:22.070 Churchill delivered his famous Iron Curtain speech 00:00:22.070 --> 00:00:25.170 in Fulton, Missouri, calling for Anglo -American 00:00:25.170 --> 00:00:28.570 leadership to defend democratic values and to 00:00:28.570 --> 00:00:32.509 recognize a shifting post -war order. His clear 00:00:32.509 --> 00:00:35.270 appeal for unity helped shape public understanding 00:00:35.270 --> 00:00:39.109 of a new geopolitical divide and inspired cooperative 00:00:39.109 --> 00:00:42.229 strategies that guided Western policy in the 00:00:42.229 --> 00:00:47.609 decades that followed. So now you know. And now, 00:00:47.929 --> 00:00:54.530 it's time for the Surf Report.

In local news, Girl Scout San Diego 00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:04.199 has filed a lawsuit against its former cookie 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:08.219 baking partner, Ferrero USA, and its subsidiary, 00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:11.560 Little Brownie Bakers, alleging a breach of contract 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:16.139 in 2024. According to the organization, the agreement 00:04:16.139 --> 00:04:20.009 was intended to last through 2025. but Ferrero 00:04:20.009 --> 00:04:23.750 USA abruptly canceled it, causing significant 00:04:23.750 --> 00:04:28.569 financial harm. Carol Dedrich, CEO of Girl Scout 00:04:28.569 --> 00:04:31.870 San Diego, stated that the actions taken by the 00:04:31.870 --> 00:04:35.170 company diminished trust and took away critical 00:04:35.170 --> 00:04:38.730 funding for girl programs. The fallout led to 00:04:38.730 --> 00:04:41.930 an emergency transition to a new baker, resulting 00:04:41.930 --> 00:04:45.850 in lost revenue and the elimination of 25 positions. 00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:50.019 The lawsuit claims that Operation Thin Mint also 00:04:50.019 --> 00:04:53.600 suffered with a decline of more than 21 ,000 00:04:53.600 --> 00:05:03.240 donated packages. Now onto sports. This season, 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:06.139 a narrative has taken hold in the National Basketball 00:05:06.139 --> 00:05:09.259 Association. The Eastern Conference is stronger 00:05:09.259 --> 00:05:12.019 than expected, while the Western Conference remains 00:05:12.019 --> 00:05:15.319 dominant. Through Monday's games, Western teams 00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:19.180 hold a slight edge with a 50 .6 % win rate against 00:05:19.180 --> 00:05:22.579 the East. Four teams from the East are projected 00:05:22.579 --> 00:05:25.860 to win over 50 games, suggesting parity in the 00:05:25.860 --> 00:05:29.500 league. However, despite the competition, the 00:05:29.500 --> 00:05:32.360 West boasts more star power and depth, leading 00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:35.899 to intriguing playoff matchups ahead. The Eastern 00:05:35.899 --> 00:05:38.420 Conference champion will need to earn their final's 00:05:38.420 --> 00:05:41.399 berth, overcoming formidable opponents along 00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:46.290 the way. In local sports, Joe Musgrove is making 00:05:46.290 --> 00:05:49.430 strides in his recovery from Tony John surgery, 00:05:49.769 --> 00:05:52.550 with Padres manager Craig Stammen expressing 00:05:52.550 --> 00:05:55.589 confidence in his potential to be the best pitcher 00:05:55.589 --> 00:05:59.250 in the National League. Musgrove recently pitched 00:05:59.250 --> 00:06:01.769 in a televised game for the first time since 00:06:01.769 --> 00:06:06.290 October 2nd, 2024, showing positive signs despite 00:06:06.290 --> 00:06:08.709 needing patience during the recovery process. 00:06:09.180 --> 00:06:12.319 He completed 60 pitches against Great Britain, 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.579 demonstrating a slight increase in velocity compared 00:06:15.579 --> 00:06:19.100 to previous outings. As the likely number three 00:06:19.100 --> 00:06:22.120 starter, Musgrove could play a crucial role in 00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:24.939 stabilizing the Padres' rotation as this season 00:06:24.939 --> 00:06:30.860 approaches.

Judge Richard Eaton 00:07:37.540 --> 00:07:40.319 of the U .S.

The federal government could 00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:53.759 ultimately be liable for refunds worth $175 billion. 00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:57.680 Barry Appleton commented that this ruling is 00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:00.360 a great decision for importers and consumers 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:04.839 who paid tariffs.

And now 00:09:28.139 --> 00:09:31.379 artificial intelligence has inspired two documentaries 00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:34.419 that explore its potential dangers and benefits. 00:09:35.500 --> 00:09:38.980 The films De -Faking Sam Altman and The AI Doc 00:09:38.980 --> 00:09:41.980 investigate the technology's implications amid 00:09:41.980 --> 00:09:45.480 rising concerns about job loss and human intelligence 00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:50.000 erosion.
