And we're live.

Welcome back to the Loopcast. It's Tom, Erica, Josh. Today we look a little taller than Josh. Oh, there you go. Which is not accurate in real life, just to be clear. Not even close, actually. I'm about half the size of Josh. So Loopcast brought to you by the loop. Of course, every Catholic American's favorite morning newsletter. Go subscribe if you haven't. But Josh is in a secret location. It's not secret. I'm in our nation's capital, but I'm going to

be doing some meetings today. It should be kind of fun. I'll let you guys know about it later in

the week. Yeah, Josh, Josh would be, you know, getting things in order in the nation's capital,

solving problems, you know. So yeah, we'll tell you about that later, but he is, if he sounds a little different, he is in D.C., grateful for him for joining today. We have a great show for you. Hope you guys had a great weekend. Really, really, some sad news. We had a shooting at Brown, really bizarre and tragic, so we're going to get you the details

there. We had a couple actually really high-profile deaths over the weekend.

We really gruesome mass shooting in Sydney as well, and then Rob Reiner lost his life.

So we're going to cover all of those faithfully.

We are going to, don't worry, we'll bring you up.

We have good news. The Phillip Rivers experience was just unbelievable. I can't wait to talk about that. It's like everything you love about sports and more. But we're also going to be tackling Trump signed an executive order on AI legislation at the federal level. I remember we briefly talked about this coming. It has officially came. We now see the legislation, what's going to look like. It's especially interesting to me. It doesn't really, it doesn't fall on partisan lines. There's a lot of debate. States are getting involved. Even at the national level, there's a lot of debate. So I'm going to be covering that. And then also, he has signaled that he's going to reclassify marijuana from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3 at the national level. No decision has been made.

I'll say it. But, you know, the weed heads. I don't know if we have many weed heads in the audience here, but we're going to talk a little bit about weed. And then we have a Catholic chaplain situation. I want to make sure we briefly touch on. But of course, Twilight Zone and good news. It's going to be included. It's going to be a great show. Really grateful to have all you join. I actually got to run into a few fans of the program over the weekend.

I was at a wonderful

wedding in Columbus. And I was stopped a few times by some members. So shout out to them.

Just really wonderful. Of course, like the best people, beautiful, handsome, intelligent, witty. Great conversation. They're like a little nervous to stop me

because I got a camera in my hand. So I got, I got, because they said Erica was the best.

Exactly, of course. But it just continues to affirm, you know, the people that listen to this

program, I would, I would love to hang out with and get a drink with. But I was on the clock, so I couldn't do that. But people had a great time at that wedding. It was a wonderful Catholic wedding. So, shout it to them. And it just, yeah, nothing better than beautiful Catholic wedding. So shout to you guys. If you want to help the show, go ahead and subscribe over on YouTube or leave us review, Apple Podcast, Spotify. Helps set a lot. Keeps you guys in the loop, all good stuff. But Erica, if we could get down to what is going on at Brown University, what do we know at

this point?

Yeah, this is a really disturbing story, in part because the suspect is still at large and the

police are keeping the cards very close to their chest if they haven't lost them completely

under the table somewhere.

So on Saturday, it's going into finals, the second half of finals for the Brown students.
