Speaker 1: A very smart man once told me that Thursday's the
Speaker 1: new Friday, and that smart man is Scott Fitzgerald. I'm
Speaker 1: rolling with what you threw out there, dude, to me
Speaker 1: weeks ago, because it doesn't quite feel like a.
Speaker 2: Friday yet, but we might speak it into existence. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it feels like a Friday when you wake up on Thursday.
Speaker 2: There's a different field to it. There's a different vibe
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 3: You're down the stretch.
Speaker 2: You are down the stretch. The weekends right around the corner,
Speaker 2: and it's time to rock and roll. Brother, it's gonna
Speaker 2: be a hot one today, Yes it is. It is
Speaker 2: gonna be hot here.
Speaker 1: It is already hot as we get this thing started
Speaker 1: five h six here Kentucky had his morning news on
Speaker 1: news radio eight forty whas Coffee and Company. I'm nic Coffee,
Speaker 1: He's Scott Fitzgerald. We've got John Shannon alongside today. He'll
Speaker 1: give you his first newscast of the morning, at least
Speaker 1: within this show since we've got it rolling here around
Speaker 1: five thirty Radio. Rick Ryder, he is, he's he's here
Speaker 1: with us. Always great to hear your voice.
Speaker 3: Rick, Well, thanks Rick.
Speaker 1: They're a great way to get us started, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure everyone here in Kentucky and a completely agrees. Now
Speaker 1: I need to come clean about something because I I'm
Speaker 1: sure I'm not the only one who's been in this
Speaker 1: situation before. But I'm not sure if you gentlemen have
Speaker 1: been here before where you you lost something but you
Speaker 1: were of the belief that it didn't magically disappear, somebody
Speaker 1: took it, and then later you realized uh oh, I
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I was working on a real investigation.
Speaker 1: I had narrowed it down to a few suspects as
Speaker 1: far as these headphones that are in my ear right now, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you got well, they're not new, they're new ish, they're
Speaker 1: new now because they've been gone for a long time.
Speaker 1: And I just assumed that these and by the way,
Speaker 1: those these are probably I mean, how I don't know
Speaker 1: how long ago it's been, but these are headphones that
Speaker 1: Apple gave you when the iPhone actually had the headphone jack,
Speaker 1: which I feel like that was a long time ago.
Speaker 1: Maybe it wasn't quite as long ago as I'm thinking.
Speaker 1: So these are what I've used for years as far
Speaker 1: as just headphones while on the air, and I just
Speaker 1: assumed that I left them in either this studio or
Speaker 1: a different studio.
Speaker 3: And I don't know if I'm sure you.
Speaker 1: Can buy these, but like, these were these were special
Speaker 1: to me, not because they're they're not like a family heirloom,
Speaker 1: but like it's just what I've always worked with, and
Speaker 1: it's only what I only. I don't even think they
Speaker 1: make new devices anymore with the headphone jack in it.
Speaker 1: So anyways, I just assumed they were gone, somebody had them,
Speaker 1: and sure enough, I put on a pair of pants
Speaker 1: today that I have not worn in a while, they
Speaker 1: were in my pocket. And just so you know, you
Speaker 1: guys were not included in the final list of suspects.
Speaker 1: I was able to. I was able to rule you
Speaker 1: guys out because not many people around here use imbuds.
Speaker 1: Most people use actual headphones, the big cans. As I say, so,
Speaker 1: I'm feeling guilty, and I may just track down who
Speaker 1: I thought for sure took them and let them know, Hey,
Speaker 1: you didn't know it, but.
Speaker 3: I thought you were a thief.
Speaker 1: I thought you had taken my headphones and lied to
Speaker 1: me about it, and I was wrong.
Speaker 3: My wife and I do that all the time.
Speaker 2: She'll accused me of taking stuff, and I'll do the
Speaker 2: same thing, and then I feel the same way you do.
Speaker 2: When I finally found it, I go and I do.
Speaker 2: That's one thing I've learned, at least over twenty five
Speaker 2: plus years in marriage is that I'm humble enough to
Speaker 2: go to her and say, look, I screwed up.
Speaker 3: I didn't always do that, and now I have to
Speaker 3: know I'm with you.
Speaker 1: I literally don't think my situation is any different than that.
Speaker 1: Now I will say we've hand up. I was going
Speaker 1: to try to do some mental gymnastics here to try
Speaker 1: to claim it's a two way street. But with my wife,
Speaker 1: I am much more. I'm much more likely to accuse
Speaker 1: her of moving something or losing something because I'm not
Speaker 1: as organized as her. I'll leave something sitting around she
Speaker 1: at times It's been rare, but when she's just picking up,
Speaker 1: straightening up, she will take something that doesn't belong where
Speaker 1: I've left it, and she doesn't really know exactly where
Speaker 1: it goes, because honestly, I'm not organized to where it
Speaker 1: doesn't have a spot right. I just I don't know
Speaker 1: where I want to put it. So I have accused
Speaker 1: her of time at times of losing something, and it's
Speaker 1: got to the point now where if I am looking
Speaker 1: for something, I don't even ask her because I know
Speaker 1: she's going to think that I'm that I'm insinuating that
Speaker 1: she took it or did something with it.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I've been there. Brother.
Speaker 1: I need to tell you, I need to follow your
Speaker 1: lead and just you know, realize once once you do
Speaker 1: get it wrong, let them know it can only.
Speaker 2: Help right, and it doesn't take long and then it's
Speaker 2: over and then you get over it. But I'm glad
Speaker 2: you found your headphones, bro, because in fact, you're reminded
Speaker 2: me because I have. I've got to order one of
Speaker 2: those special jacks for the iPhone because I'm been able
Speaker 2: to listen to the headphones while I cut the grass.
Speaker 2: I'm doing it tomorrow and I miss that. Yeah, you
Speaker 2: forget how quiet it is out there. Absolutely, and you
Speaker 2: can use Bluetooth, but like I don't know, it's.
Speaker 3: Just it's same. Yeah, it doesn't work. Yeah, so I
Speaker 3: got you.
Speaker 1: Anyways, I apologize for assuming some of our workers things. Look,
Speaker 1: it's all about being comfortable, and for whatever reason, it's
Speaker 1: probably just in my head because these are what I've
Speaker 1: had in my ears for probably I don't know, ninety
Speaker 1: five percent of the shows I've done in the last
Speaker 1: five year. Even though it's fine without them, I'm just
Speaker 1: more comfortable knowing that I've got these old headphones that
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna use them until they until I
Speaker 1: lose them again and I cuse somebody of stealing them
Speaker 1: or or maybe you know, maybe when they stop working
Speaker 1: at some point. But on good way to start today again.
Speaker 1: Thursday's the new Friday. We're rolling with that today. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get too a quick update of traffic and weather.
Speaker 3: It is Top.
Speaker 1: Sixteen here at Kentucky and his morning news Coffee and
Speaker 1: Company on News Radio eight forty whas NIT Coffee with
Speaker 1: you and you can take us with you wherever you go.
Speaker 1: Listen live on the iHeartRadio app. Also listen live at
Speaker 1: w h AS dot com. So I don't believe there
Speaker 1: is any traffic issues just yet out here in the UH,
Speaker 1: in the Kentucky and A roadways. I could be wrong,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure we will have some level of issue
Speaker 1: because we usually do.
Speaker 3: But maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it's smooth sailing this morning. But either way,
Speaker 1: we know that Bobby Ellis will get us caught up.
Speaker 1: That's what you've come to know and expect here on
Speaker 1: news Radio eight forty WHS and his next updates coming
Speaker 1: your way in about three and a half minutes or so.
Speaker 1: But I do want to let you know that there's
Speaker 1: likely going to be a lot of traffic this weekend.
Speaker 1: So I sixty five is going to be closed in
Speaker 1: downtown for a good chunk of the weekend. In fact,
Speaker 1: it starts at eight pm on Friday and will end
Speaker 1: at five am on Monday, and there'll be lane reduction
Speaker 1: that continues into next week through Wednesday. But it sounds
Speaker 1: like the closures and the traffic issues are more so
Speaker 1: just going to be an issue for the weekend, probably
Speaker 1: not quite as bad when you get into next week
Speaker 1: up until Wednesday. So it's the left three lanes on
Speaker 1: I sixty five south of the Kennedy Bridge, so ramps
Speaker 1: from I sixty four East and West, as well as
Speaker 1: I seventy one South to I sixty five South. That's
Speaker 1: going to start at seven pm on Friday, so you'll
Speaker 1: be rerouted to I sixty four east, I sixty four
Speaker 1: West or I seventy one North to reconnect with I
Speaker 1: sixty five South. And what they're doing is they're replacing
Speaker 1: expansion joints, which sounds pretty important.
Speaker 3: If the expansion joints.
Speaker 1: If you tell me, hey, looks like we've got some
Speaker 1: shoddy expansion joints, I'm gonna say, yeah, close it down,
Speaker 1: let's get that fixed. Sounds dangerous to me. But this
Speaker 1: is apparently the uh, this is a let's see.
Speaker 3: Make sure I have my numbers right here.
Speaker 1: The affected area was part of a two point three
Speaker 1: billion dollar Ohio River Bridges project, which was put in
Speaker 1: place a decade ago. So, uh, this this has been
Speaker 1: a long time coming. It sounds like so again, expect
Speaker 1: some major delays. And if you if you were planning,
Speaker 1: uh to be you know, driving around through downtown Louisville
Speaker 1: this weekend, maybe don't, right, I mean I shouldn't. I
Speaker 1: shouldn't tell you to change your plans. But when I
Speaker 1: hear of this, I just assume the worst and hope.
Speaker 3: For the best.
Speaker 1: But I'm curious if if you hear of big time
Speaker 1: closures that are expected because of construction, not a rack,
Speaker 1: because that's something you just predict, but if you just know, hey,
Speaker 1: you got something like this going on where multiple aims
Speaker 1: and a very busy area of downtown Louisville on the
Speaker 1: Interstate is going to be closed. Would that impact what
Speaker 1: you do? Do you make plans based off that? Do
Speaker 1: people pay attention to that kind of stuff? I'm curious
Speaker 1: you can let us know in the talkback feature within
Speaker 1: the iHeart Radio app if you'd like, because I probably
Speaker 1: should pay attention to those kind of things because I
Speaker 1: suffer from being very impatient, and I don't I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody likes traffic, right, But and I'll
Speaker 1: be honest with you, I've rarely hit really bad, nightmare
Speaker 1: type traffic where I'm stuck for a long long time,
Speaker 1: and I don't know what I would do. I mean, again,
Speaker 1: you're pretty helpless whenever you end up just essentially being
Speaker 1: in a parking lot tailgating with other people when you're
Speaker 1: not moving at all. So I've been lucky to not
Speaker 1: be in a situation quite like that. But I mean,
Speaker 1: who likes traffic Nobody? Right, So if I did pay attention,
Speaker 1: then maybe I could reroute and make arrangements to make
Speaker 1: arrangements to not you know, not sitting that even if
Speaker 1: it adds time. Like I'm somebody that if you tell
Speaker 1: me the time in your car, will be a little
Speaker 1: bit longer, but you will not be sitting for anything
Speaker 1: other than maybe the red light. But if you go
Speaker 1: the other route, you're gonna end up sitting a lot
Speaker 1: in traffic, but you'll be four or five minutes quicker.
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like, more often than not, I
Speaker 1: would take the route where I'm not sitting because I
Speaker 1: just get impatient. But maybe that's sim that's just me.
Speaker 1: So again, I'll never forget this. He's on vacation this week,
Speaker 1: and if he was here, I would I would once
Speaker 1: again thank him because I now do this more often.
Speaker 3: In fact, I never used to do it, but it
Speaker 3: makes total sense.
Speaker 1: And it was one of those moments, and I've had
Speaker 1: many of them where I'm like, oh, yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: that's really I'm like, why did not I think of
Speaker 1: doing that?
Speaker 3: That makes total sense. I'm an idiot.
Speaker 1: But John Olden, whenever he and I were working together
Speaker 1: in the afternoons, he would tell me that each day
Speaker 1: he would leave and he would put it in his GPS,
Speaker 1: but not because he didn't know how to get here,
Speaker 1: because he would see if there was any traffic issues
Speaker 1: that might make him want to go a different route,
Speaker 1: or maybe pick up pick up the pace a little
Speaker 1: bit because he's got some delay with traffic. And I
Speaker 1: never once thought of using GPS for that reason. I
Speaker 1: just use it if I'm lost and don't know where
Speaker 1: I'm going. So anyways, we prepared this weekend, folks. You'll
Speaker 1: hear me mention that probably throughout the morning and tomorrow,
Speaker 1: just so people are aware. Making it my duty to
Speaker 1: make sure you guys are aware that if you're going
Speaker 1: to be out in downtown near the Kennedy Bridge again,
Speaker 1: maybe you don't want to be doing that. All right,
Speaker 1: we've got another update of tracking and weather coming your way,
Speaker 1: Bobby Ellis. We'll get a straightened out when it comes
Speaker 1: to the roadways. Also, we'll get a look at the
Speaker 1: forecast from WLKWIS. Matt Melosovich and Scott will be in
Speaker 1: with sports. As we roll along here, it is Kentucky
Speaker 1: in his morning news coffee and company right here on
Speaker 1: news radioaight forty whas.
Speaker 3: Paul Miles reports, it.
Speaker 1: Is Kentucky in his morning news with coffee and company
Speaker 1: here a news radio eight forty whas Nick Coffee. That's
Speaker 1: me Radio Rick Rider, mister Radio Rick, or I should
Speaker 1: say alongside Rick, you want to go back in time
Speaker 1: once again, back to the days of you cutting your
Speaker 1: teeth in the radio business, when you were a young stallion,
Speaker 1: back in the fall of nineteen seventy. Sure, I've got
Speaker 1: some more, some more facts for you. The number one
Speaker 1: song around that time in the fall, it looks like
Speaker 1: there's three here in the mix, War by Edwin Starr.
Speaker 3: Do you know that one?
Speaker 1: Yes? I do.
Speaker 3: What about Ain't no Mountain high en? If everybody knows that.
Speaker 1: One, that's right, okay? And then Cracklin' Rosie by Neil Diamond.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know that that song was about a bottle
Speaker 3: of wine.
Speaker 1: Okay, Crackling rose Nice, I get it now, many people
Speaker 1: knew that.
Speaker 3: But that's the knowledge you provide, Rick.
Speaker 1: It's where you, it's where you, it's why, what's why
Speaker 1: they pay the big bucks around here? Right? Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So we're taking you up till nine o'clock, which means
Speaker 1: we've got a lot more time to go. So stick around,
Speaker 1: hang out, let us be a part of your morning.
Speaker 1: You could take us with you wherever you go again.
Speaker 1: Listen live on the iHeart Radio app. Also listen live
Speaker 1: at w h AS dot com. So this story is
Speaker 1: disturb and honestly hard to believe. And it's one of
Speaker 1: those conspiracy theories that I was just too naive to
Speaker 1: assume there was any validity to it. But we now
Speaker 1: have legitimate confirmation that it's not just the conspiracy theory,
Speaker 1: and it's a story that of course is getting national news,
Speaker 1: maybe worldwide news right here in Louisville. So a US
Speaker 1: House subcommittee they're looking into some real issues with an
Speaker 1: organ donation system and its focus is on a Louisville
Speaker 1: based nonprofit company. So federal investigation started into Network for Hope,
Speaker 1: which has recently merged with CODA, and they looked at
Speaker 1: about three hundred and fifty ish cases and found nearly
Speaker 1: seventy patients who should have been ruled out as organ
Speaker 1: donors due to serious neurological problems, but weren't. So this
Speaker 1: is all when I mentioned the conspiracy theory that's out there.
Speaker 1: It's those that just assume, well, yeah, you have your
Speaker 1: preference as far as what you want to do with
Speaker 1: your organs, and your family is just going to be
Speaker 1: told whatever they are expected to be told, and what
Speaker 1: actually happens with your organs, who really knows. I mean again,
Speaker 1: I just would have. I just would assume that there's
Speaker 1: day nobody would do that. I mean, that's that's in humane.
Speaker 1: That's again hard to believe, but sure enough there are
Speaker 1: you have a legitimate apology that that came down from
Speaker 1: the Yeah, this is from Scott. This is from Secretary
Speaker 1: Secretary Kennedy says, our findings that hospitals allowed the organ
Speaker 1: procurement process to begin when patients showed signs of life,
Speaker 1: and this is horrifying. The organ procurement organizations that coordinate
Speaker 1: access to transplants will be held accountable and the entire.
Speaker 3: System must be six so must be fixed.
Speaker 1: So there's reform here as far as just this whole thing,
Speaker 1: which clearly that that's needed given the fact that this happened.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's insane if you think about it. So
Speaker 1: there's this story. So the story there's a specific patient
Speaker 1: that this really I shouldn't say that this is why
Speaker 1: the investigation happened, because I don't know that, but it
Speaker 1: wouldn't shock me if this was a real spark.
Speaker 3: But there's a guy by the name of TJ.
Speaker 1: Hoover who was waking up fighting off staff while being
Speaker 1: prepared dad his organs donated. I mean, it sounds like
Speaker 1: something from a movie, right, You're waking up as they're
Speaker 1: trying to remove your organs to donate because they assume
Speaker 1: you're dead, or they think you're dead, or maybe they're
Speaker 1: trying to kill you. So not only is it not
Speaker 1: from a movie or ripped from a Reddit thread, it's
Speaker 1: now part of I mean, it's part of congressional record here.
Speaker 1: So if you were already suspicious about the system, this
Speaker 1: does not help. And it confirms what a lot of
Speaker 1: people have believed for years, is that they'll do whatever
Speaker 1: they want with your organs and you'll never know. And
Speaker 1: the black market is a lucrative market when it comes
Speaker 1: to reselling organs and all that kind of stuff. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's one of the those things that I
Speaker 1: just would And it's not that I sit around thinking
Speaker 1: about it a whole lot, but it's a conspiracy theory
Speaker 1: that has had enough traction over the years that you've
Speaker 1: probably heard somebody reference it. And I don't know, maybe
Speaker 1: I am becoming less naive as I get older, or
Speaker 1: there's just been enough proof that I shouldn't just take
Speaker 1: everything at face value and assume that there aren't people
Speaker 1: out here doing things that are just unthinkable, and you
Speaker 1: know this actually is it's honestly hard to believe.
Speaker 3: So just be prepared.
Speaker 1: And I would imagine even when there is a new
Speaker 1: system in place, which they're expected to be soon, I
Speaker 1: would imagine that, you know, people are still going to
Speaker 1: be weary because it's just you just take people at
Speaker 1: their word that they're not that they're going to do
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to do, because I don't guess I
Speaker 1: have such a fear of doing anything to you know,
Speaker 1: get myself in trouble. But like when you were making
Speaker 1: this decision to I guess, you know, start in some
Speaker 1: way hustling organs on the black market that weren't technically
Speaker 1: supposed to be made available to the person who died.
Speaker 1: I mean, don't you chalk up sort of the risk
Speaker 1: reward there as far as what could.
Speaker 3: End up happening to you?
Speaker 1: So it almost doesn't seem real, but I promise you
Speaker 1: it is real. All Right, we got another update of
Speaker 1: traving the weather coming your way right here, right now,
Speaker 1: we'll get the latest forecast from at Melosa.
Speaker 3: Bitch a WLK.
Speaker 1: Why Bobby Ellison get us caught up on how traffic
Speaker 1: is looking to get this Thursday started, and Roy O'Neil
Speaker 1: of NBC News he set the joints coming up in
Speaker 1: about four and a half minutes right here on news
Speaker 1: radio wait to wait forty whas Nick coffee. That's me
Speaker 1: and we've got Rory O'Neil alongside this morning. Rory, what
Speaker 1: can you tell us on the latest from the Gallup
Speaker 1: poll any results that are believed to be surprising here?
Speaker 4: Well, look, there's this couple of Gallup surveys coming out
Speaker 4: and it's a little bit confusing, especially for the radio
Speaker 4: purposes when.
Speaker 3: You don't have this list in front of you, gotcha.
Speaker 4: But essentially Gallup asked the people about how they felt
Speaker 4: on twenty different moral issues, everything from birth control to
Speaker 4: pre marital sex, to pornography to animal cloning. You know
Speaker 4: where does this fall? What is morally acceptable? What is not?
Speaker 4: These days, birth control, divorce, and premarital sex all seem
Speaker 4: to be much more morally acceptable. But on the other
Speaker 4: end of the spectrum, sex between teenagers, gender changes, and
Speaker 4: pornography are much more considered morally wrong. And right in
Speaker 4: the middle, we've got some divided views. Abortion and medical
Speaker 4: testing on animals are two of the issues that are
Speaker 4: almost a toss up among voters.
Speaker 1: So do these things, I mean, have you noticed this
Speaker 1: fluctuate over years?
Speaker 3: And I don't know.
Speaker 1: And again I don't want to make you sound like
Speaker 1: a dinosaur, Rory, but I'm sure these things have been
Speaker 1: People have had opinions on this stuff for a long
Speaker 1: long time, and I'm just curious as it fluctuated a
Speaker 1: lot over the years.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, we do see some of these numbers
Speaker 4: change because they do ask you know, they have the
Speaker 4: age breakdown of the people taking part in some of
Speaker 4: the surveys, so that's where you do see some of
Speaker 4: the changes. And the older the participants, the less likely
Speaker 4: they are to consider things morally acceptable. I guess is
Speaker 4: the standard rule of thumb. But we haven't seen big
Speaker 4: swings in recent years. In some of these numbers, they're
Speaker 4: relatively flat. We do notice big divides though, in party affiliation,
Speaker 4: so they are very different views on things like abortion
Speaker 4: or changing gender depending on whether or not people identify
Speaker 4: as Democrats or Republicans.
Speaker 1: Rory on Neale NBC News is our guest joining us
Speaker 1: here on news Radio eight forty whas so the sentencing
Speaker 1: of Brian Koberger, who was the murderer who killed four
Speaker 1: Idaho college students that happened in twenty twenty two. What
Speaker 1: can you tell us as far as just the overall
Speaker 1: reaction to the sentencing. Obviously there's nothing that's going to
Speaker 1: probably do much for the family of these victims in
Speaker 1: the moment, but maybe the court of public opinion, does
Speaker 1: it seem as folks feel like this this sentence was fair.
Speaker 4: Well, Look, Colberger took a plead deal to avoid the
Speaker 4: death penalty in Idaho, and the prosecutors there have taken
Speaker 4: some heat for allowing this. Heck, even President Trump, or
Speaker 4: at least his spokesperson at the White House, said that
Speaker 4: President Trump wanted to see this case go to trial,
Speaker 4: wanted to see the ultimate punishment imposed here. But the
Speaker 4: prosecution said, look, things can happen at trial with evidence.
Speaker 4: We didn't want to risk it. We also didn't want
Speaker 4: the expense. Okay they didn't say that out loud, but
Speaker 4: that's a big part of it. And then they also
Speaker 4: said that this really could bring up some very troubling
Speaker 4: memories and re traumatize the community if there's some eight
Speaker 4: week trial that has to unfold there in Idaho. So
Speaker 4: they thought it was best for everyone involved to essentially
Speaker 4: throw coburger in jail and throw away the key.
Speaker 1: This case, this story specifically, really became a national thing.
Speaker 1: When you have Amazon, Prime, Peacock, Paramount, plus HBO Max.
Speaker 1: They all did specific true crime docuseries in regards to this,
Speaker 1: to this story.
Speaker 3: Have you noticed, you.
Speaker 1: Know, obviously there's that true crime is a very popular
Speaker 1: genre and it's only getting more popular. I feel like
Speaker 1: that's clearly a big factor in why this you know,
Speaker 1: this plea agreement that he reached. And of course the sentencing,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it seems like appointment viewing for a
Speaker 1: lot of people.
Speaker 4: Well, right, and you know, I think all the networks,
Speaker 4: the cable news networks carried the sentencing hearing live for
Speaker 4: more than two hours yesterday. There's obviously been intense interest,
Speaker 4: as you said, in the true crime genre. The podcast
Speaker 4: groups all about these Idaho student murders. Let's face it,
Speaker 4: they're all very photogetic for good looking kids in their twenties.
Speaker 4: That also increased the appeal here. And it's just an
Speaker 4: absolute tragedy. And look, there were some emotional messages that
Speaker 4: came from these families, the families of the victims who
Speaker 4: were able to look Coldberger square in the eye and
Speaker 4: finally tell him how how they've felt. So it was
Speaker 4: gripping television.
Speaker 3: No doubt.
Speaker 1: And he seemed pretty lifeless over there. And he's somebody
Speaker 1: that clearly had an interest in it as well. He
Speaker 1: studied criminology before he went down the path of becoming
Speaker 1: an awful human being who murdered four people. So yeah,
Speaker 1: some of a lot of folks that don't probably considers
Speaker 1: that even if they get no reaction, he just sits
Speaker 1: there just being able to have that experience. It's heavy,
Speaker 1: I'm sure for the victims family, but part of closure,
Speaker 1: no doubt. But Rory is always we appreciate your time.
Speaker 1: Enjoyed the rest of your day. We'll talk to my friend.
Speaker 4: Thanks. Nick touching tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Alrighty, that is Rory O'Neal NBC News. Let's get an
Speaker 1: updated look at the roadways from Bobby Ellis with a
Speaker 1: check on the traffic, and we'll take a look at
Speaker 1: this forecast. It's going to be hot today. Stick around
Speaker 1: right here on News Radio forty whas
