| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. Welcome to this week's scoop. Hope you're off to a great week as we come off |
| 0:10.4 | a holiday weekend. And actually, a holiday weekend for many, I just learned this fact as I was getting ready for this |
| 0:17.0 | broadcast. As our family celebrated Easter, it was a quiet Easter. I can confirm that the |
| 0:22.8 | Easter Bunny did make an appearance at our house and that my daughter wrote extensively to the |
| 0:29.4 | Easter Bunny before the Easter Bunny's arrival. And the Easter Bunny did write back. I cannot confirm or deny the source of that letter. |
| 0:41.1 | But overall, Easter was a success in our household. But it turns out a lot of people were |
| 0:44.9 | celebrating over this past weekend, not only just those who celebrate Easter. Listen to this. |
| 0:48.6 | For the second year in a row, Ramadan, Passover, and Easter Sunday will occur during the same weekend. |
| 0:56.0 | Typically, this event happens three times a century or once every 33 years. |

Even amongst the world's three big religions out there, there was a lot of celebration that was happening this weekend. So hopefully you had a great weekend with you and your family. I definitely ate a few too many jelly beans, no Cadbury eggs in our household, which is my personal favorite. I know that can be controversial, |
| 1:44.6 | just about as controversial as peeps. Turns out, I think one survey said, Rees's peanut butter |
| 1:49.0 | cups are the most popular Easter candy, according to data, you know, of people shopping. |
| 1:55.6 | I can't, not in our household, not in our household, but that's just because I was late shopping. |
| 2:00.1 | So I had very limited candy possibilities there. So we're launching into a whole new week of news. We have a |
| 2:06.8 | lot of different stories that are on simmer. It feels like we're coming off a really intense |
