Alright, hey, what's up? Let's go a brand new week starts right now.

0:05.6

Yeah, it's Monday, May 22nd, 2023. This is first thing with Kevin Mano. Good morning, friends.

0:10.3

I hope you had a great weekend. Thanks for being here.

0:13.2

If you celebrate birthdays before we get to all the headlines and there are a lot of headlines,

0:18.1

Novak Jokovic is celebrating today. Maggie Q as well. Naomi Campbell, happy birthday and

0:24.0

Morrissey. He's 64 years old today and as far as I know, not very nice, but happy birthday.

1:21.3

were back at it and Biden and McCarthy had a quote, productive talk. And they're going to sit down

1:26.4

today. I kind of feel like a broken record here, but yeah, they're getting together again.

1:30.0

And a reminder, if they don't figure this out, ASAP, that's potentially a really bad thing for

1:34.5

the economy and for all of us. So hopefully today, this meeting goes much better.

1:40.3

Alright, okay, onto some sports headlines here. First, this one came out on Friday,
