That's right, you guys. It is Friday, May 15th, 2026. It is BK here, of course. And that will be your intro music for this week. That's right. So I guess a lot of you haven't seen my stories or anything about it. But here's the deal. Because I keep getting messages. BK. Spotify is deleting your episodes. They've deleted the latest too. And I keep messaging people. I tried making a video, but apparently the message is not getting out. Spotify is taking them down. It has to do with the music. And they use AI to scan for music. And they're the only ones who do this and anything they think

0:42.5

is copyright material. They just take the whole thing down completely. Now, what to do? I don't

0:48.8

know what I'm going to do about that yet. A few people have reached out with jingle material and

0:52.7

stuff like that. My buddy, Aaron, local guy, he said he's got a whole studio. We can mess around with that. And I'll probably look into something like that because I just don't want them to keep going after me. And a lot of you guys use Spotify. And it's just not worth it kind of. I know a lot of you also messes that, no, you got to keep the music going. But what's the point if it keeps getting struck? Because eventually Spotify, according to their terms, obviously they're kind of on to me. I mean, they took down the two latest episodes, right? So they can eventually, like, delete the account completely. And you guys wouldn't be able to use Spotify. And it's's a whole freaking thing. It sucks, but we're going to work it out. The problem is I didn't

1:32.6

have really time to deal with this this week because I'm going out of town as you guys know,

1:36.0

no podcast next week. And I just have to figure out a way what I'm going to do with it. So I'm

1:42.6

open any suggestions or you can

1:44.6

guys can send me your AI jingles that you make for World News with P.K. I'm willing to listen to

1:50.4

all of them. But I have to get started here. Let's see, it's 11.06 a.m. here on Friday. And by the

1:59.2

way, next week is Memorial Day. That's why I'm taking it off.

2:01.5

And I just want to say in advance, happy Memorial Day. We will remember all of our fallen brothers

2:08.4

and sisters out there. Okay, guys, let's go. Let's start in Congo. Guess what? It's the same old,

2:14.4

same old. We got Ebola. Yet again, Africa's leading public health authority said on

2:21.3

Friday that there was an outbreak of the Ebola virus in a province of the Democratic Republic of Congo

2:26.9

with dozens of deaths. And again, hundreds of infections suspected. The Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, that's the Public Health Agency

2:37.0

of the African Union said 65 deaths from Ebola had been reported in the northeastern

2:44.2

province of Aturi, though only four had been definitively linked to the virus through laboratory

2:49.7

testing.

2:50.4

The agency said that 246 suspected infections had been reported in linked to the virus through laboratory testing. The agency said that

2:51.2

246 suspected infections had been reported in Anturi and at 13 had been confirmed. So the,

of the outbreak emerged so late
