| 0:00.0 | Well, hello, what's going on? Let's go a brand new day starts right now. It's Tuesday, October 25th, 2022. |
| 0:07.7 | A few celebrity birthdays for you today are in Be Singers, Sierra, Katie Perry, Craig Robinson. I love that guy. |
| 0:14.2 | Hall of Fame, Pitcher, Pedro Martinez, Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson, happy birthday to you all. |
| 0:21.6 | And on the state in 1978, you hear the music 44 years ago today. The original Halloween was released. It was a low budget movie that no one expected a lot from. |
| 0:32.4 | And it changed the genre forever. Happy anniversary Michael Myers. This is the one piece of music I can play on a piano. |
| 0:41.6 | All right, let's go. We always start the show with the top story. We will start with one of the tough ones today. There was a shooting at a St. Louis High School yesterday, central visual and performing arts high school. |
| 0:57.6 | Police responded quickly and they shot the gunman. He was a 19 year old that graduated from the school last year. |
| 1:03.6 | In addition to him, two others lost their lives a 16 year old girl and a 61 year old woman. As of this morning, their identities have not been made public. |
| 1:11.6 | Seven more were transported to an area hospital with injuries and are all in stable condition. Thank goodness. I'm sure more information will come out today. |
| 1:19.6 | Okay, all right, moving on to some sports headlines now that the Yankees have been eliminated from postseason baseball. All eyes are on Aaron Judge. Their loss in Sunday may have been his final game. |
| 1:34.6 | Any Yankees jersey is now the league's most sought after free agent in the spring. He turned down the team's $210 million extension offer. And that was before he hit all 62 of those home runs in historic fashion, making his star rise even higher. He's going to get some pretty massive offers thrown his way. |
| 1:51.6 | I remember how the whole world watched Serena Williams last match at the US open. Well, that may have been a bit premature. She just clarified that she is not retired and the chances of her returning to the court are quote, very high. |
| 2:04.6 | To be fair, she never said she was retiring. She simply said she was evolving away from tennis. Not too far away. It turns out. |
| 2:11.6 | Okay, all right, on to some entertainment headlines. This is a brutal one yesterday. Leslie Jordan passed away at the age of 67. He's probably best known for his role on Will and Grace. He won an Emmy for that. He's been in a ton of stuff. And a couple years ago, he blew up on Instagram. |
| 2:30.6 | Beginning of the pandemic, he started churning nuts and real quality content and quickly racked up close to six million followers. People love the guy. It's so tragic. Yesterday, he was driving in Los Angeles and reportedly crashed into the site of a building TMZ claims he suffered some sort of medical emergency. |
| 2:46.6 | All behind the wheel. Very, very sad. The messages of love and support the tributes have just been pouring in from all over the place. He was a treasure and he will be missed. |
| 2:56.6 | While we're bummed, I'll throw this one out there too, which is found out that Robbie Coltrane, the actor that brought Hagrid to life in the Harry Potter movies, he reportedly died of multiple organ failure. |
| 3:05.6 | We just found out that was the cause of death. He passed away in a hospital close to his home in Scotland. |
| 3:11.6 | He was not news broke yesterday that Kanye West has been dropped by CAA. That's one of the biggest talent agencies in the world. They're done with him. It also came out that a completed documentary about Kanye is being shelved. If you're not caught up, he's made a string of anti-Semitic comments lately, doubling down on him, tripling down on him, a handful of companies have severed ties with him in the last week. |
| 3:31.6 | The boycott Adidas has been trending for a couple days. There's been all this growing pressure on them to drop him and his Yeezy brand. Until this morning, I hadn't heard anything, but right now it looks like today could be the day that they announced they were severing ties with him. |
| 3:45.6 | I haven't seen anything official as of the time I'm recording this, but it looks like this announcement could come today. |
| 3:51.6 | Oh, and his lawyer bailed on him to Camille Vasquez. She was the woman that just helped Johnny Depp when his defamation lawsuit and she had been working with him. Yesterday, we found out that she too has hopped off the Kanye train. |
