00:00:01.580 --> 00:00:04.519
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show,

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:09.140
Sunny Mornings in Boston. I'm your host, Melissa,

00:00:09.539 --> 00:00:13.820
and it's Friday, September 5th. You'll be interested

00:00:13.820 --> 00:00:20.179
to know. 48 years ago, today in 1977, NASA launched

00:00:20.179 --> 00:00:23.399
the Voyager 1 spacecraft, a shining testament

00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:27.079
to human curiosity and exploration from Cape

00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:30.600
Canaveral, Florida. That bold mission carried

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:33.359
our hopes beyond the outer planets, unveiling

00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:36.240
the wonders of Jupiter and Saturn, and continues

00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:39.079
to send back precious data from interstellar

00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:42.200
space, inspiring generations to reach for the

00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:47.820
stars. So now you know. And now it's time for

00:00:47.820 --> 00:00:53.659
the weather report. This morning, there's patchy

00:01:06.090 --> 00:01:08.930
It looks like we're in for some patchy fog before

00:01:08.930 --> 00:01:12.129

00:01:12.129 --> 00:01:16.189

Friday will be just before 10 with a low tide

00:01:35.739 --> 00:01:40.540
at 4. The near shore buoy at Cape Cod Bay reads

00:01:40.540 --> 00:01:45.439
68 degrees for the water temperature. Looking

00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.739
ahead in the weather. Expect a slight chance

00:01:48.739 --> 00:01:52.040
of rain showers after 2 p .m. on Saturday with

00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:57.079
mostly sunny skies and a high near 88. Saturday

Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas. Nestled

00:02:52.050 --> 00:02:55.590

to tell them. Sunny mornings send you. In local

00:03:22.340 --> 00:03:26.080
news, the Navy's iconic Blue Angels are back

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:28.620
in New Hampshire for the first time in more than

00:03:28.620 --> 00:03:31.300
a decade, bringing their thrilling air show to

00:03:31.300 --> 00:03:34.960
Pease Air Base in Portsmouth this weekend. Locals

00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.620
gathered outside the base to watch the high -flying

00:03:37.620 --> 00:03:41.919
spectacle during Thursday's rehearsal. Les Carboneaux,

00:03:42.219 --> 00:03:45.400
a nearby resident, remarked, The way these guys

00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.719
fly, it's so close together. It's quite a sight

00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:52.939
to see. For Katie Riley, who attended with her

00:03:52.939 --> 00:03:55.259
daughter, it's about passing on a tradition,

00:03:55.659 --> 00:03:58.580
recalling, My dad used to take us to air shows

00:03:58.580 --> 00:04:02.199
all the time. The free event is expected to draw

00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:05.659
about 40 ,000 people, and coincides with the

00:04:05.659 --> 00:04:09.259
250th birthday of the Navy and Marine Corps.

00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:19.160
Now on to sports. Kaitlyn Clark's season is officially

00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:22.579
over, as the Indiana Fever star announced on

00:04:22.579 --> 00:04:31.139
social media Thursday night, She expressed her

00:04:31.139 --> 00:04:33.720
feelings of disappointment, thanking fans for

00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:36.300
their support through this frustrating time.

00:04:37.139 --> 00:04:40.180
Clark has been sidelined since July 16th with

00:04:40.180 --> 00:04:43.019
a right groin injury, and despite her hard work

00:04:43.019 --> 00:04:47.629
to recover, Time was not on her side. Last night,

00:04:47.790 --> 00:04:50.649
we kicked off the NFL season with Cowboys at

00:04:50.649 --> 00:04:56.750
Eagles. Philly came out on top 24 to 20. After

00:04:56.750 --> 00:04:59.649
a brief lightning delay, the Eagles pulled ahead,

00:04:59.930 --> 00:05:05.850
with Jalen Hertz going 19 for 23 with 152 yards.

00:05:07.029 --> 00:05:09.750
Hertz really shined in the running game, and

00:05:09.750 --> 00:05:13.199
the boys couldn't stop him. as he racked up 62

00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:17.740
yards rushing with two touchdowns. Dak Prescott

00:05:17.740 --> 00:05:22.519
was in good form, with 188 yards passing, going

00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:27.540
21 for 34. And tonight, the brilliant decision

00:05:27.540 --> 00:05:31.120
-makers at NFL headquarters decided to take a

00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:33.339
home game away from the Chargers, with their

00:05:33.339 --> 00:05:36.300
opening game being played in Brazil as they face

00:05:36.300 --> 00:05:40.360
the Chiefs. This game can only be watched on

00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:43.509
YouTube. Luckily for free, with a game time at

00:05:43.509 --> 00:05:48.329
8 Eastern, 5 Pacific. On to college football

00:05:48.329 --> 00:05:52.170
tomorrow. Not too many big matchups, but a good

00:05:52.170 --> 00:05:55.709
one might be number 15 Michigan at number 18

00:05:55.709 --> 00:06:00.149
Oklahoma, which kicks off at 430 Pacific on ABC.

00:06:01.550 --> 00:06:05.750
The Sooners are favored by five and a half. In

00:06:05.750 --> 00:06:09.490
local sports, the Red Sox were off last night,

00:06:09.670 --> 00:06:12.939
but tonight, They are back in action, taking

00:06:12.939 --> 00:06:15.839
on the D -backs at Chase Field in Phoenix for

00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:20.220
Game 1 of a three -game series. Peyton Tall,

00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:25.120
with a 0 -0 record and a 3 .38 earned run average,

00:06:25.620 --> 00:06:29.899
faces Eduardo Rodriguez, who is 6 -8 with a 5

00:06:29.899 --> 00:06:34.939
.4 ERA. First pitch at 940 under clear skies

00:06:34.939 --> 00:06:41.250
with temperatures near 94 degrees. In top news,

00:06:41.810 --> 00:06:44.910
Matthew Bowyer, at the center of the Shohei Otani

00:06:44.910 --> 00:06:48.230
bedding scandal, received more than $16 million

00:06:48.230 --> 00:06:51.550
in wires from Otani's account. And this led to

00:06:51.550 --> 00:06:54.509
an investigation threatening the Las Vegas gambling

00:06:54.509 --> 00:06:58.470
scene. Bowyer, a former poker player, became

00:06:58.470 --> 00:07:01.189
involved in an illegal bookmaking operation,

00:07:01.689 --> 00:07:04.879
attracting clients through various means. In

00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:08.199
December 2023, Otani signed a record contract

00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:11.860
with the Los Angeles Dodgers, but by March 2024,

00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.079
reports emerged linking him to illegal gambling,

00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:19.579
leading to Otani denying any involvement. Bowyer,

00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:21.939
who had been successfully running his operation

00:07:21.939 --> 00:07:25.600
for years, now faces serious legal repercussions

00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:31.100
as his empire crumbles under scrutiny. In business

00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:35.629
news, This stock just displaced Palantir to become

00:07:35.629 --> 00:07:40.410
the S &P 500's top -performing stock. Move over

00:07:40.410 --> 00:07:44.189
Palantir, you have new competition. Seagate,

00:07:44.610 --> 00:07:48.709
the computer storage provider. Artificial Intelligence

00:07:48.709 --> 00:07:52.009
Defense Contractor Palantir has amassed a cult

00:07:52.009 --> 00:07:56.910
following with a $370 billion valuation and one

00:07:56.910 --> 00:08:00.620
of the richest valuations of all time. However,

00:08:00.740 --> 00:08:04.240
after ascending nearly 2000 % from its October

00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:07.540
2020 initial public offering and joining the

00:08:07.540 --> 00:08:11.639
S &P 500 index, the company has hit a setback.

00:08:12.459 --> 00:08:15.620
Over the last week, a 10 % rally in shares of

00:08:15.620 --> 00:08:19.100
digital storage company Seagate Technology has

00:08:19.100 --> 00:08:21.779
helped it quietly displace the one -time best

00:08:21.779 --> 00:08:25.930
performer in the index. Seagate is now the best

00:08:25.930 --> 00:08:28.629
-performing stock in the index, while Palantir

00:08:28.629 --> 00:08:33.250
sits at number two. In crypto movement, Bitcoin

00:08:33.250 --> 00:08:36.250
is down half a percent for the week, to about

00:08:36.250 --> 00:08:42.649
$111 ,000. Ethereum is down 9%, to just over

00:08:42.649 --> 00:08:47.750
$4 ,300. And XRP is down half a percent, to $2

00:08:47.750 --> 00:08:54.740
.81. Moving on to a more local vibe. In our community

00:08:54.740 --> 00:08:57.639
spotlight on health and wellness, we are working

Hingham, Brookline, and Framingham, just be sure

00:09:31.419 --> 00:09:35.940
to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by. And now,

00:09:36.139 --> 00:09:40.840
back to the show. Let's talk science. This disease

00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:43.759
is on the rise, and many people do not know that

00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:47.059
they have it. Nine out of ten people with chronic

00:09:47.059 --> 00:09:49.899
kidney disease only find out when it progresses

00:09:49.899 --> 00:09:54.970
to later stages. An estimated 700 million people

00:09:54.970 --> 00:09:58.350
worldwide have chronic kidney disease, including

00:09:58.350 --> 00:10:02.990
35 .5 million people in the United States. Experts

00:10:02.990 --> 00:10:05.230
warn that the biggest health risk associated

00:10:05.230 --> 00:10:08.230
with chronic kidney disease is dying from heart

00:10:08.230 --> 00:10:12.029
disease. Early detection is key to slowing the

00:10:12.029 --> 00:10:14.809
progression of kidney damage, especially with

00:10:14.809 --> 00:10:22.590
new treatments available. What should have been

00:10:22.590 --> 00:10:26.789
the perfect pairing of artist and material instead

00:10:26.789 --> 00:10:30.669
falls victim to impossible expectations as the

00:10:30.669 --> 00:10:34.710
master overstuffs his creations. Oscar Isaac

00:10:34.710 --> 00:10:37.750
plays Victor Frankenstein more as a tortured

00:10:37.750 --> 00:10:41.950
artist than a scientist. More than once, incensed

00:10:41.950 --> 00:10:44.769
characters accuse the mad doctor of being the

00:10:44.769 --> 00:10:49.149
true monster in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein.

00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:53.639
Del Toro remains a cinematic master with every

00:10:53.639 --> 00:10:58.279
costume set and propcrafted with formidable imagination

00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:02.379
and daunting attention to detail. However, the

00:11:02.379 --> 00:11:05.240
film feels as if we are watching through a peephole.

00:11:05.940 --> 00:11:09.059
Alas, Del Toro's depiction of sexuality remains

00:11:09.059 --> 00:11:12.419
strangely stunted, raising questions about the

00:11:12.419 --> 00:11:17.039
monster's attraction. Well, alrighty folks, it's

00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:20.980
time for the quote of the day. And today, our

00:11:20.980 --> 00:11:23.860
quote comes from the American astronaut and physicist,

00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:44.320
Sally Ride. And she said, And that's a wrap for

00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:47.320
this morning. You can check out our Instagram,

00:11:47.700 --> 00:11:51.299

00:11:51.299 --> 00:11:54.480
videos with local news and the weather reports.

00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:58.419
Have an amazing day, my good friends. We'll see

00:11:58.419 --> 00:12:01.519
you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings

00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:02.019
in Boston.
