00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,880
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in Boston.

2
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,680
I'm your host Melissa, and it's Friday, July 19th.

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,760
You'll be interested to know.

4
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:24,840
176 years ago, today in 1848, the women's suffrage movement began in the United States.

5
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:30,840
In the 1820s and 1830s, women became active in various reform groups.

6
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:37,360
They challenged the cult of true womanhood, which confined women to domestic roles.

7
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,800
This led to the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, where activists like Elizabeth Cady

8
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:49,780
Stanton and Lucretia Mott advocated for women's rights, including the right to vote.

9
00:00:49,780 --> 00:00:55,240
The struggle continued through the 19th century, culminating in the ratification of the 19th

10
00:00:55,240 --> 00:01:02,680
Amendment on August 18, 1920, which granted women the right to vote.

11
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,680
So now you know.

12
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,840
And now, it's time for the weather report.

00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:16,040
It looks like we're in for a sunny day, with a high near 84 and wind of 6 to 8 mph.

14
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,480
Tonight.

15
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,640
Mostly clear, with a low around 66.

16
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:27,280
For all you peach runners out there, the first high tide Friday will be at 1030 a.m., with

a low tide at 415 p.m.

18
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:38,520
The nearshore buoy at Cape Cod Bay reads 70 degrees for the water temperature.

19
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,000
Looking ahead in the weather.

20

43
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:33,880
CPS Sports has secured the U.S. TV rights for the English Football League and Carabo

44
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,880
Cup, previously held by ESPN.

45
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:45,880
Starting next month, CPS will broadcast at least 250 matches per season, including 155

46
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:52,880

47
00:03:52,880 --> 00:04:00,880
Relevant Sports, part of Stephen Ross's portfolio, negotiated the deal for $56 million.

48
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:06,880
CPS aims to market the English Football League extensively, leveraging its experience with

49
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,880
other European tournaments.

50
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:15,880

In top news, Bud Light has fallen to the number three beer brand in the United States,

53
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:38,880
following a controversy with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

54
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:45,880
According to Bump Williams Consulting Firm, Modelo Especial leads with 9.3% of beer dollar

55
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:53,880
sales, followed by Makealove Ultra at 7.1% and Bud Light at 7%.

56
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,880
Despite the decline, Bud Light remains the top-selling beer by volume.

57
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:04,880
The consulting firm attributes Makealove Ultra's success to effective advertising

58
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,880
and consumer acceptance.

59
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:13,880
Anheuser-Busch InBev, Bud Light's parent company, continues efforts to rehabilitate

60
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,880
the brand's image.

61
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:23,880
In business news, Ken Griffin, a hedge fund billionaire, made headlines by paying $45

62
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:29,880
million for a nearly complete stegosaurus skeleton named Apex.

63
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:35,880
The sale set a record for the highest amount ever paid for a fossil.

64
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:44,880
Apex, a 150-million-year-old dinosaur, was initially expected to sell for up to $6 million.

65
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,880
Griffin, the founder and chief executive of Citadel, plans to lend Apex to a museum in

66
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,880
the United States.

67
00:05:52,880 --> 00:06:00,880
He previously bought a $44 million first edition copy of the United States Constitution.

And now back to the show.

82
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,880
Let's talk science.

83
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:13,880
NASA has canceled plans to launch the Viper moon rover due to supply chain and budget restraints.

84
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:19,880
The Viper rover was part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload program.

85
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:25,880
This small rover was designed to search for water in the moon's polar regions.

86
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:30,880
Nikola Fox, NASA's missions administrator, emphasized that the mission team's diligent work

87
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,880
through the pandemic was not in question.

88
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,880
Due to delays, the launch would have been pushed to September 2025,

89
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,880
increasing costs and affecting other missions.

90
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:49,880
However, three of Viper's instruments will still reach the moon on other missions.

91
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:56,880
And in entertainment news, John Hamm is back, and it's very, very cool.

92
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,880
The former Mad Men star is a double Emmy nominee this year,

93
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:05,880
recognized for his performances in The Morning Show and Fargo.

94
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,880
Hamm played tech billionaire Paul Marks in The Morning Show,

95
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,880
and villainous Sheriff Roy Tillman in Fargo.

96
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:22,880
This marks his 17th and 18th Emmy nominations, previously winning for Mad Men in 2015.

97
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:28,880
Hamm believes these nominations feel different in today's peak TV landscape.

98
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:35,880
Currently filming Your Friends and Neighbors, Hamm is thrilled and ready to enjoy the accolades.

99
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,880
Well, alrighty, folks, it's time for the quote of the day.

100
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:47,880
And today, our quote comes from the American writer and activist, Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

101
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,880
And she said,

102
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:58,880
We are the only class in history that has been left to fight its battles alone, unaided by the ruling powers.

103
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:04,880
White labor and the free black men had their champions, but where are ours?

104
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,880
Right here, Elizabeth. Right here.

105
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,880
I'll be your huckleberry.

106
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,880
And that's a wrap for this morning.
