| 0:00.0 | 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. Good morning, everybody. Happy Hump Day to you on this September 3rd, 2025. I have all of your stories for your rush hour ride to work. |
| 0:22.4 | Tons to talk about. The billion dollar lottery is still in play. We'll get to that. |
| 0:27.3 | And of course, our featured story, Perez Hilton gives an update following his court case |
| 0:33.4 | yesterday. He's, of course, battling Blake lively, basically trying to find out whether or not |
| 0:40.6 | he'll have to turn over any privileged information about sources. He's going at it alone with no |
| 0:47.6 | legal representation. A real David versus Goliath. We'll get into that in a little bit. Plus |

| 1:45.8 | cheap, right? Fast fashion, bad for the environment. Really just not good. And maybe the shirts |
| 1:50.9 | made there, you know, I don't know where this thing comes from. We're all guilty of it, right, |
| 1:54.5 | buying these clothes from other countries. But that's not the point. The point is, who the heck |
| 1:58.4 | thought it was a good idea to put Luigi Mangione in this ad? |
| 2:02.2 | Clearly, whoever did didn't know who they were posting, but he, of course, is set to be, |
| 2:08.1 | he's got a trial coming up for the alleged murder of healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson. |
| 2:15.0 | But there he is. I mean, you got to say what you want about Luigi. The guy's got |
