In local news, Jerry Seinfeld, one of the most successful comedians of our time, recently
shared a memorable moment from his career that still affects him three decades later.
During a 1993 performance in Boston, Seinfeld was heckled with a… heard it… shout from
an audience member while delivering a meticulously crafted wedding bid.
Despite the years and his significant success, this incident lingers in his mind, highlighting
the challenges and intricacies of developing comedy that resonates and feels fresh.
Even after repeated performances.
Beantown Baby knocking you down a peg since forever.
Now on to sports.
After facing strong criticism over their new uniforms, Major League Baseball and Nike are
set to make significant changes.
Players and fans expressed dissatisfaction with issues like unreadable nameplates and
moisture issues, prompting MLB to demand revisions.
A memo from the MLB Players Association highlighted these concerns and confirmed that Nike will
address the issues by the 2025 season, reversing many of the initial changes to the uniforms,
which included problematic moisture handling and durability during play.
In local sports.
In Game 4, the Celtics on the road beat the Heat, 102-88.
They now lead the series 3 games to 1 and head back to Boston for Game 5 on Wednesday.
And tonight, the Red Sox are at home to take on the Giants.
And the Bruins are at home for Game 5 to skate with the Maple Leafs.
And top news, starting your day with vegetables instead of carbohydrates can lead to better
control of blood sugar levels.
Research suggests that eating non-starchy vegetables before carbs helps reduce glucose
spikes, potentially benefiting both people with diabetes and those with normal blood
sugar levels.
This approach, which involves eating vegetables 10 minutes before carbohydrates, also helps
curb hunger by affecting hunger hormones, leading to potentially lower calorie intake
and better overall nutrient consumption.
In business news.
ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, has confirmed that it will not be selling its US.
Operations of the platform, despite a new US law that could potentially force such a
sale.
This decision follows recent speculation about a possible sale, which ByteDance refutes as
untrue.
This stance comes after the US passed legislation citing national security concerns, which TikTok
has countered by denying any sharing of US user data with the Chinese government.
TikTok remains a major player in the US market, with around 170 million users, and continues
to challenge the legislation in court.
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $63,000.
Ethereum is $3,100.
And Solana is $136.
Moving on to a more local vibe.

Just be sure to tell them, Sunny Morning sent you by.
And now, back to the show.
Let's talk science.
An engineer claims to have developed a new propulsion system that defies traditional
physics by not requiring propellant to produce thrust.
Dubbed an improbable engine, this technology, created by former NASA engineer Charles Buller
and his team at Exodus Propulsion Technologies, reportedly harnesses a new force that allows
for the counteraction of Earth's gravity.
This breakthrough could revolutionize space travel if validated, but it remains highly
controversial and unproven, echoing the skepticism faced by previous attempts.
Triggerless independent testing is necessary to verify these extraordinary claims.
And in entertainment news, CBS is revamping its NFL Today lineup, introducing Matt Ryan
to the studio team for the 2024 season.
He joins James Brown, Nate Berlson, Phil Cower, and J.J. Watt as Phil Sims and Boomer S. Syison
X at the show.
Ouch.
Where's the loyalty?
Ryan transitions from game analysis to the pregame desk, highlighting his first successful
year with CBS Sports.
S. Syison, meanwhile, continues with CBS on the Boomer and Geo show, and Sims departs
after a significant tenure.
Ryan expressed enthusiasm about contributing to the legacy of the iconic show.
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from Henry Ford, the creator of the Model T and the Ford Motor
Company said, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
So if you're feeling like the wind is slowing you down lately, find a way to let it propel
you rather than fight against it.
And that's a wrap for this morning.
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos
with local news and the weather reports.
Had an amazing day, my good friends.
We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in Boston.
