Welcome to Tuesday's morning show podcast, because you deserve a better morning.

The college football season is officially over.

We will talk about that in Pop Stop, but a new season starts, tech season.

And we'll talk about that in today's core four.

And I've got a lot of things for you today, how we didn't make it to the moon, why we're drilling into volcanoes, and why celebrities really are

to do with the issue that caused the door to blow off.

Yesterday, I told you how the FAA grounded Boeing 737 Max 9 aircrafts for safety precautions

until they could all be checked. Well, in their inspection of the airplanes, United and Alaska

found loose bolts in several of the door plugs.

And the hunt to find that door plug that flew off is now over.

It was found in the backyard of an Oregon resident named Bob.

All I know about him is that he's a teacher.

The NTSB did not want to reveal more information.
