Hey, what's going on? It's Friday, June 23rd, 2023. It starts right now.

Yeah, happy Friday, friends. Welcome to first thing with Kevin Mano. That's me.

Before we get to all the headlines, a few celebrity birthdays today, actress Melissa Roush is a

year older Jason Razz who is actually releasing a new album today. We'll get to that. Joel Edgerton,

Selma Blair, Frances McDormand, and Randy Jackson Dogg. You're going to Hollywood dog,

Happy Birthday. And in US history, it was exactly 30 years ago today that Lorraine Abobot did the

thing that Lorraine Abobot is famous for doing. Something to her husband. June 23rd in 1993,

if you don't know what I'm talking about, you're probably better off. I was a kid at the time,

and I still remember all the late night talk shows making jokes about it 30 years ago today.

All right, let's go. We'll start the show with the top story. And this is not the conclusion anyone

wanted here, all week long, the world has just been captivated by that ocean gate,

Titanic bounce, and Mercible that went missing. And it was confirmed yesterday that all five

passengers have lost their lives. Pieces of debris, pieces of that sub were found near the Titanic

down on the ocean floor, about 1600 feet away from the Titanic. The Coast Guard is saying that it

imploded. And now the Navy is saying that they believe they picked up the sound of that implosion

on Sunday, shortly after the voyage began. If that's the case, I think it's comforting for some

people to know that those people weren't living with the knowledge of their impending demise down

there for days. It was pretty instant. The company Ocean gate releases statement saying,

we now believe that our CEO stocked in rush, Shazada, Dauwood, and his son,

Suleiman, Dauwood, Hamish Harding, and Paul Henry, Nartelet have sadly been lost. Those are the

five passengers. Quite a story. This has been, I'm sure more info will come out and continue to

dominate the news cycle all weekend. Actually, I have a few more things about it coming up in the show
