00:00:01.480 --> 00:00:04.179
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:04.339 --> 00:00:08.759
Sunny Mornings in Boston. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:12.919
and it's Wednesday, June 4th. You'll be interested

00:00:12.919 --> 00:00:18.019
to know, 36 years ago today, in 1989, the United

00:00:18.019 --> 00:00:20.879
States Congress approved the 19th Amendment to

00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:23.660
the Constitution, granting women the right to

00:00:23.660 --> 00:00:27.570
vote. This monumental decision marked a significant

00:00:27.570 --> 00:00:31.210
victory for the women's suffrage movement, culminating

00:00:31.210 --> 00:00:34.810
decades of advocacy and struggle. The amendment's

00:00:34.810 --> 00:00:37.409
passage paved the way for its ratification by

00:00:37.409 --> 00:00:40.590
the states, ultimately enfranchising women across

00:00:40.590 --> 00:00:43.710
the nation and reinforcing the principles of

00:00:43.710 --> 00:00:48.850
equality and democracy. So now you know. And

00:00:48.850 --> 00:00:55.340
now, it's time for the weather report. This morning,

00:00:55.460 --> 00:00:58.920
it's sunny and it feels like 62 degrees with

00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:03.079
9 mile per hour wind. The sunset will take place

00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:07.379
at 816 and it will rise again tomorrow at 507.

00:01:08.099 --> 00:01:10.859
It looks like we're in for some mostly sunny

00:01:10.859 --> 00:01:14.200
skies today with a high around 88 and a light

00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:19.299
southwest breeze. Tonight, expect mostly clear

00:01:19.299 --> 00:01:22.819
conditions with a low of 63 and gentle winds.

00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:26.819
For all you beach runners out there, the first

00:01:26.819 --> 00:01:30.480
high tide Wednesday will be at 645 with a low

00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:34.799
tide at 1. The nearshore buoy at Cape Cod Bay

00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:40.140
reads 60 degrees for the water temperature. Looking

00:01:40.140 --> 00:01:44.480
ahead in the weather. Expect sunny skies on Thursday

00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:48.200
with a high near 92 and a light southwest wind.

00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.319
Friday brings a chance of rain and thunderstorms

00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:56.760
with a high near 83. Saturday looks cloudy with

00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:59.659
likely showers and thunderstorms at a high near

00:01:59.659 --> 00:02:04.319
76. Sunday will have a chance of rain with a

00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:07.700
high near 75. And nights will be mostly cloudy

00:02:07.700 --> 00:02:12.860
with lows in the upper 50s. Bonjour, food enthusiasts.

00:02:13.180 --> 00:02:16.319
This podcast is brought to you by Versailles

00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:20.219
Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas. Nestled on El

00:02:20.219 --> 00:02:23.900

coffee. They are open every day from 8 to 5.

00:02:42.460 --> 00:02:45.699
So stop on by and don't forget to tell them.

00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.979
Sunny Morning sends you. In local news, train

00:02:51.979 --> 00:02:55.300
service through East Boston was temporarily halted

00:02:55.300 --> 00:02:57.780
by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority

00:02:57.780 --> 00:03:00.919
on Monday evening after a sinkhole emerged on

00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:05.060
a bridge above the railroad tracks. At approximately

00:03:05.060 --> 00:03:09.360
5 .30 p .m., the agency suspended Blue Line trains

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:11.900
while inspections were conducted on the bridge

00:03:11.900 --> 00:03:15.080
between Wood Island and Orient Heights stations.

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:18.840
Shuttle buses were deployed to replace train

00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:22.219
service between Logan Airport and Suffolk Downs

00:03:22.219 --> 00:03:26.620
until around 6 .40pm. Following the resumption

00:03:26.620 --> 00:03:29.360
of service, trains operated at reduced speeds

00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:37.439
as crews made repairs to the bridge. Now on to

00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:42.039
sports. As June approaches, Major League Baseball's

00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:45.139
trade deadline looms. offering contending teams

00:03:45.139 --> 00:03:48.460
a chance to enhance their rosters while non -contenders

00:03:48.460 --> 00:03:52.840
look to rebuild for the 2026 season. Currently,

00:03:53.020 --> 00:03:56.180
nine teams are expected to become sellers, including

00:03:56.180 --> 00:04:01.199
the Rockies, White Sox, Pirates, Athletics, Orioles,

00:04:01.379 --> 00:04:06.259
Marlins, Angels, Nationals, and Diamondbacks.

00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:10.680
Players like Ryan O 'Hearn and Cedric Mullins

00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:14.139
from the Orioles along with Zach Gallen and Merrill

00:04:14.139 --> 00:04:16.879
Kelly from the Diamondbacks, could attract interest.

00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:20.899
With potential trades on the horizon, teams face

00:04:20.899 --> 00:04:26.399
pivotal decisions ahead. In local sports. Last

00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:28.939
night at Fenway, the Red Sox dropped a close

00:04:28.939 --> 00:04:33.959
one to the Angels, 4 -3 in 10 innings. The Sox

00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.439
tied it up in the 6 with a homer from Rafael,

00:04:36.819 --> 00:04:39.300
but the Angels clinched it with a run in the

00:04:39.300 --> 00:04:42.920
10th. Kelly took the loss, while Detmers earned

00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:46.620
the save for Los Angeles. Despite out -hitting

00:04:46.620 --> 00:04:50.079
the Angels with 10 hits to 8, the Sox couldn't

00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:53.920
capitalize, standing at 29 wins and 34 losses.

00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:57.920
Tomorrow afternoon, the Sox face the Angels at

00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.000
Fenway for the final game of this three -game

00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:05.300
series. Lucas Giolito takes the mound for Boston

00:05:05.300 --> 00:05:10.360
with a 4 .78 ERA. while Jose Soriano starts for

00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:15.839
Los Angeles with a 1 .48 ERA. First pitch is

00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:20.339
at 135, with sunny skies and a warm 83 degrees

00:05:20.339 --> 00:05:26.680
expected. In top news, a new study suggests that

00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:30.980
Earth's core is literally leaking gold. While

00:05:30.980 --> 00:05:33.740
most of the planet's precious metals lie hundreds

00:05:33.740 --> 00:05:36.360
of miles beneath the surface, Scientists have

00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:39.560
discovered a particular isotope of ruthenium

00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:43.500
in volcanic rock samples. This indicates that

00:05:43.500 --> 00:05:46.339
precious metals are oozing from the core into

00:05:46.339 --> 00:05:50.420
the mantle, which comprises 84 % of Earth's volume.

00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:54.339
Researchers developed new procedures to detect

00:05:54.339 --> 00:05:57.079
microscopic markers, confirming that material

00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:00.990
from the core is rising to the surface. This

00:06:00.990 --> 00:06:04.310
research supports geological theories about oceanic

00:06:04.310 --> 00:06:07.689
islands and opens up a new perspective on Earth's

00:06:07.689 --> 00:06:14.029
inner dynamics. In business news, major automakers

00:06:14.029 --> 00:06:17.110
are urgently seeking solutions to China's control

00:06:17.110 --> 00:06:20.149
over rare earth magnets, which could threaten

00:06:20.149 --> 00:06:23.329
their production lines. With fears of imminent

00:06:23.329 --> 00:06:26.129
shutdowns, companies are exploring options like

00:06:26.129 --> 00:06:29.870
relocating parts manufacturing to China. or shipping

00:06:29.870 --> 00:06:33.910
motors there for magnet installation. China recently

00:06:33.910 --> 00:06:36.970
mandated export permits for these critical materials,

00:06:37.310 --> 00:06:39.709
which are essential for electric vehicle motors

00:06:39.709 --> 00:06:43.629
and other automotive functions. Automakers are

00:06:43.629 --> 00:06:46.170
also looking for alternative sources in Europe

00:06:46.170 --> 00:06:49.069
and Asia, but these may not meet current demand.

00:06:49.850 --> 00:06:52.810
Without immediate action, production delays and

00:06:52.810 --> 00:06:55.470
shutdowns could become a reality for the industry.

00:06:56.069 --> 00:07:01.089
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is unchanged at about

00:07:01.089 --> 00:07:07.569
$106 ,000. Ethereum is up 1 % to just over $2

00:07:07.569 --> 00:07:13.449
,600. And Goatseys Maximus is down 2 % to $0

00:07:13.449 --> 00:07:19.209
.12. Moving on to a more local vibe. In our community

to tell them. Sunny morning sent you by. And

00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:04.959
now, back to the show. Let's talk science. A

00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:08.120
captivating new study suggests that human intelligence

00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:12.500
may have roots in gravitational waves. First

00:08:12.500 --> 00:08:15.680
detected in 2015, these waves play a crucial

00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:19.240
role in life on Earth. The study highlights how

00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:22.279
gravitational waves from binary neutron star

00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:25.819
collisions ejected heavy elements essential for

00:08:25.819 --> 00:08:29.600
forming Earth's molten core. This process not

00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:32.159
only created our planet's magnetosphere, but

00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:35.559
also initiated plate tectonics, enabling evolution.

00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:39.779
Lead author Bernard Schutz explains that these

00:08:39.779 --> 00:08:42.340
explosions are responsible for the elements that

00:08:42.340 --> 00:08:45.740
shaped life. As scientists advance detection

00:08:45.740 --> 00:08:48.799
tools, they aim to explore the cosmic connections

00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:54.690
that lead to our existence. and in entertainment

00:08:54.690 --> 00:08:58.730
news. The sixth installment in the Karate Kid

00:08:58.730 --> 00:09:02.070
franchise, Karate Kid Legends, has officially

00:09:02.070 --> 00:09:04.649
premiered, although critics have mixed feelings.

00:09:05.450 --> 00:09:08.830
Despite this, fans are enjoying the film, which

00:09:08.830 --> 00:09:11.370
features beloved characters like Jackie Chan

00:09:11.370 --> 00:09:15.789
as Mr. Han and Ralph Macchio as Daniel LaRusso,

00:09:15.929 --> 00:09:21.190
alongside new student Ben Wang as Lai Fong. Director

00:09:21.190 --> 00:09:24.169
Jonathan Entwistle emphasized that this movie

00:09:24.169 --> 00:09:28.190
is not a Cobra Kai film, but rather a continuation

00:09:28.190 --> 00:09:32.870
within the Karate Kid universe. While a post

00:09:32.870 --> 00:09:35.610
-credits scene includes Johnny Lawrence, watching

00:09:35.610 --> 00:09:40.210
Cobra Kai is not necessary. However, the series

00:09:40.210 --> 00:09:43.590
remains wildly entertaining and worth the watch.

00:09:44.750 --> 00:09:48.210
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote

00:09:48.210 --> 00:09:52.149
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:09:52.149 --> 00:09:55.470
American suffragist and social reformer, Susan

00:09:55.470 --> 00:10:08.990
B. Anthony. And she said, And that's a wrap for
