00:00:01.320 --> 00:00:11.560
<v Speaker 1>This is WBZY, Boston's news radio, redefining local news. Good morning,

2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:15.599
<v Speaker 1>party people, six o'clock on a Tuesday, kind of foggy

3
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:18.719
<v Speaker 1>and otherwise cloudy here in Boston, but warm and muggy too.

4
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:22.359
<v Speaker 1>It is seventy degrees as we get going this Tuesday morning,

5
00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:24.199
<v Speaker 1>The News at six brought to us by You're a

6
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>New England Toyota dealer, your hybrid all wheel drive headquarters.

7
00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:31.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm Jeff Brown. Welcome aboard. It's soupy. It's swampy in Boston.

8
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Clowns and breaks of sun with a few showers and

9
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:38.240
<v Speaker 1>thunderstorms around, especially from midday into the evening. This WBZ

10
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:41.399
<v Speaker 1>achi weather meteorologist Heather's are high. Temperatures will be near

11
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:44.759
<v Speaker 1>ninety today. As America is about to turn two hundred

12
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:48.039
<v Speaker 1>and forty nine years old, millions of us are going places.

13
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Always get out of town a couple of days before

14
00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:52.359
<v Speaker 2>the fourth that's a safe protocol for sure.

15
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:54.840
<v Speaker 3>It's a solid game plan, as Brian and his family

16
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:57.159
<v Speaker 3>are not the only ones here a logan getting away

17
00:00:57.159 --> 00:00:59.439
<v Speaker 3>for the holiday weekend. But can I ask, what were you guys heading.

18
00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:02.479
<v Speaker 2>On Lusia celebrate you know, in warm weather and on

19
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:02.960
<v Speaker 2>the beach.

20
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:05.200
<v Speaker 3>Also going to a beach our Jack and Lily.

21
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:07.400
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna Newport Beach, California.

22
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:08.239
<v Speaker 4>How that listen?

23
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:10.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I play by her a little bit. Did you

24
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:12.799
<v Speaker 3>book today knowing that I'll try to beat the.

25
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Rush from No, we didn't the cheapest flight. We're almost

26
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:18.439
<v Speaker 1>being the rush.

27
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:21.040
<v Speaker 3>So it's good thinking about this morning. Nationwide, the TSA

28
00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:24.599
<v Speaker 3>expects to screen over eighteen million travelers between today and

29
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:30.120
<v Speaker 3>July sixth. At Logan, James Rojas WBZ Boston's news radio

30
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:30.680
<v Speaker 3>and if.

31
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:32.840
<v Speaker 1>You are at Logan Airport this morning, you might need

32
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:34.959
<v Speaker 1>to cool your jets a little bit. Flight Aware is

33
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>reporting about fifty delays and cancelations on the board. At

34
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:42.480
<v Speaker 1>this moment, summer jobs for teenagers might be a thing

35
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:46.319
<v Speaker 1>of the past. The signs are there, with teenage unemployment

36
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:49.680
<v Speaker 1>this summer at more than thirteen percent. That rivals a

37
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:52.599
<v Speaker 1>decade old high of close to eighteen percent back in

38
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:56.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty fifteen. Teenagers say they're lured in by help wanted

39
00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:00.400
<v Speaker 1>signs only to learn the jobs in questions sometimes don't exist,

40
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>or someone else got the job. Oftentimes an adult economic

41
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.520
<v Speaker 1>uncertainty also leaves many teenagers with nothing to do. This summer,

42
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:11.879
<v Speaker 1>not two weeks since being acquitted. HEREO zero zero one

43
00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:14.879
<v Speaker 1>is not quilty and zero zero three not quilty.

44
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

45
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.800
<v Speaker 1>Karen Reid goes Hollywood. The forty five year old Mansfield

46
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.479
<v Speaker 1>woman cuts a deal to bring her story to Tinsiltown.

47
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:25.439
<v Speaker 1>Reid continues her business relationship with lead attorney Alan Jackson

48
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:28.800
<v Speaker 1>to do this deal with LBI Productions. Officials with the

49
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>company says Reed's story is not just a legal thriller,

50
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:35.520
<v Speaker 1>It's about what happens when a single voice refuses to

51
00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:38.719
<v Speaker 1>be silenced. Well, this changes everything. Today is the first

52
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:41.919
<v Speaker 1>day that the NCAA will allow colleges and universities to

53
00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:45.479
<v Speaker 1>begin paying student athletes. The landmark ruling from a federal

54
00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:50.039
<v Speaker 1>judge now creates a revenue sharing opportunity between schools and athletes.

55
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:53.439
<v Speaker 1>The settlement, approved last month forces the organization to pay

56
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:56.439
<v Speaker 1>two point eight billion dollars over the next decade. The

57
00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:59.879
<v Speaker 1>Power five conferences and other schools which opt in will

58
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.319
<v Speaker 1>again at more than twenty million dollars this year, with

59
00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:05.520
<v Speaker 1>increases scheduled in years to come. Those payments are on

60
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>top of scholarships and other student benefits. Red Sox fire

61
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Away on the Reds too late the call on Nessen.

62
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:19.639
<v Speaker 1>It's a record setting night for Willier Abray you at

63
00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Fenway Socks and Cincinnati will go again first pitch at

64
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:25.560
<v Speaker 1>seven ten tonight and the Celtics are shape shifting before

65
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>our eyes. Is another link to banner number eighteen Hits

66
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:31.599
<v Speaker 1>the Road. What you see is what you get this morning.

67
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:34.199
<v Speaker 1>As you open the blinds, you're going to see it's

68
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:37.560
<v Speaker 1>very foggy in some areas and otherwise just a low

69
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:41.520
<v Speaker 1>blanket of clouds here in Boston this morning. We're expecting

70
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>some shower activity, although the radar right now is pretty

71
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.000
<v Speaker 1>quiet here in Boston this morning. It's going to fire

72
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit later on today with some showers

73
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:51.759
<v Speaker 1>and thunderstorms moving through the area. We might even see

74
00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:53.840
<v Speaker 1>some breaks of sun along the way. This is one

75
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.599
<v Speaker 1>of those shaky summer days that almost anything goes. The

76
00:03:57.639 --> 00:03:59.919
<v Speaker 1>atmosphere is unstable because we do have a lot of

77
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.599
<v Speaker 1>humidity in the air. High temperatures today will be right

78
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:05.039
<v Speaker 1>around ninety degrees. It is going to continue to be

79
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:08.159
<v Speaker 1>very uncomfortable overnight to night, lows only in the lower seventies.

80
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Tomorrow promises to be a slightly quieter day with partly

81
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:14.800
<v Speaker 1>sunny skies and high temperatures once again in the mid eighties.

82
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Very warm Fourth of July week continues on Thursday, with

83
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:20.639
<v Speaker 1>partly sunny skies ninety for a high and on the

84
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:22.560
<v Speaker 1>holiday itself, it looks like it's going to be just

85
00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:26.519
<v Speaker 1>a spectacular day with high temperatures right around eighty five.

86
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Right down in Boston, it is seventy clouds and fog

87
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.639
<v Speaker 1>this morning in the city six six this Tuesday morning.

88
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:36.399
<v Speaker 1>Senators on Capitol Hill continue to burn the midnight oil

89
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:39.639
<v Speaker 1>as the VODA rama continues on hundreds of amendments to

90
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:42.879
<v Speaker 1>President Trump's Big, Beautiful Budget bill plods along.

91
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.199
<v Speaker 4>The bill includes roughly four trillion dollars in tax cuts

92
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 4>for the wealthy, along with new funding for immigration enforcement

93
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:53.319
<v Speaker 4>and fulfill some campaign pledges like no taxes on tips

94
00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:57.600
<v Speaker 4>and overtime. It also guts biden era clean energy initiatives

95
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.800
<v Speaker 4>and slashes Medicate, something so Trump promised he would not do.

96
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:05.600
<v Speaker 1>ABC's Mary Bruce. The President has delivered a self imposed

97
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:07.720
<v Speaker 1>deadline of the fourth of July to get a bill

98
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:10.160
<v Speaker 1>back to his desk, but he is willing to grant

99
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>some wiggle room if passed by the Senate. A return

100
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:15.439
<v Speaker 1>trip to the House is up next, and time is

101
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.639
<v Speaker 1>simply running short. Well, if the Big Beautiful Budget Bill

102
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.519
<v Speaker 1>does pass, Elon Musk promises he'll be out for revenge.

103
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:25.480
<v Speaker 1>He promises to launch a Third America Party with the

104
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:29.360
<v Speaker 1>sole purpose of targeting Republican candidates up for reelection. Musk

105
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>says the budget still stinks and eliminates much of the

106
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:36.560
<v Speaker 1>savings that his Doge team accomplished. The Congressional Budget Office

107
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:39.439
<v Speaker 1>says more than ten million Americans will lose health coverage

108
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:42.439
<v Speaker 1>through Medicaid over the years, and the nation's debt will

109
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>increase by more than three trillion dollars in the coming

110
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:46.079
<v Speaker 1>years as well.

111
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:46.759
<v Speaker 3>Well.

112
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.680
<v Speaker 1>At one point, we thought we were so cool forty

113
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:53.600
<v Speaker 1>six years ago today, but he Bz's Drew mo'holland is

114
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:55.040
<v Speaker 1>here with a walk down memory Lane.

115
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:58.720
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, Andrew, Good morning Jeffrey. The Sony Walkman, the

116
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:02.199
<v Speaker 2>what the Kid? Yeah, come on now, you don't know

117
00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:03.000
<v Speaker 2>what that is, right?

118
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:03.240
<v Speaker 4>I know.

119
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>This was a game changer when it made its debut.

120
00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:08.839
<v Speaker 2>At the time, The Walkman revolutionized the way we listen

121
00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:13.360
<v Speaker 2>to music. The Sony Walkman.

122
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:22.120
<v Speaker 1>There's a tiny stereo cassette player with truly incredible sound. Hey, hey, son,

123
00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I try it out.

124
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.279
<v Speaker 2>Imagine music on the go, Jeffrey with our headphone.

125
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:28.199
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine that?

126
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:31.120
<v Speaker 2>The Walkman went from concept to sale in just a

127
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:34.680
<v Speaker 2>few months. The first ones needed custom made batteries, just

128
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:37.399
<v Speaker 2>three thousand sales in the first month, but marketing people

129
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:39.639
<v Speaker 2>did their thing and turned the tide on the walk.

130
00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:42.639
<v Speaker 1>And then the headphones. I don't know if you remember,

131
00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:45.399
<v Speaker 1>they were just they weren't very comfortable, and they didn't

132
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:47.959
<v Speaker 1>have great sound quality. I'm sure for the times we

133
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:49.360
<v Speaker 1>thought that was the coolest.

134
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:50.199
<v Speaker 2>Thing ever, but it was beautiful.

135
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:53.000
<v Speaker 1>We've come so far. You are now in the loop.

136
