Welcome to the rush hour. Your daily dose of pop culture for your rush hour ride.

Buckle up and enjoy the drive with your host, stand-up comedian Dave Neal.

Hello everybody. Good afternoon on this Tuesday, August 12th, 2025. I have all of your stories for your rush hour right home. We'll be discussing the

glorious news coming from Taylor Swift's camp that she's got a new album coming out. The Life

of a Showgirl, I'll share some information you might have missed. She leaves clues as to what's

coming next. We'll have that. Plus, of course, more on the Blake lively, Justin Baldoni court case, as all of the documents seemingly are coming out this week. It is

a wild time to be alive. We've got Baldoni's side essentially saying there is just no proof of

She made the news. We'll discuss that. And Theo Vaughn taking a brave stance

So here's a video I'm going to share with you, of course, from a Walmart of a dog being

stuck in the lettuce. That's right. A dog, a good boy or girl. And then by the way, if you're

wondering, salad spinners are on sale, but this is why you need to clean your lettuce, not just because

of E. coli, but I guess because of whatever fleas might be living on a dog, you don't want

fleas contaminating with your romaine lettuce, but there it is. The dog, I mean, and by the way,

don't blame the dog. I mean, laying down on a bed of lettuce, especially during the hot summer months

with some nice cool weather, maybe some of that nice mister technology. I don't blame them.

Either way, be a good boy. Let's move it on from that story. Taylor Swift in the news. We covered this
