This is a perfect question for Jane X. Send it along to Sarah Viny at Odyssey. com Clive Davis passed. We got the note on that late in the show yesterday . You know, I figured there'd be like a big expo on him, and there is more information , but he was ninety four years old, so it wasn't like it was a crazy surprise death or anything . But Clive Davis is one of those names . You might not even know what he does or who he discovered or who he, you know, who is like a like an R and D guy like a is that the is that what it is research or a talent acquisition guy and he said over the years he ear got better and better. He said , sometimes people would just walk in and he'd see their aura, like Janice Joplin walked in and he went, oh that is she's a star . That was one of the he kicked off his career with Janice Joplin . I am very familiar with Clive Davis. I have no idea what R and D or what he did for any record. I think I'm thinking of and R. Well, ANR is something that they've worked with us in terms of like radio stations and stuff. I've heard that term, but I don't I don't know what he did. I know he's big in the music business. I know his party at the Grammy's is the biggest like everybody wants to be clive party the night before the Grammy and our old boss used to I don't I haven't seen any posts from him but he was a guy who knew Clive Davis He signed Janice Choplin to kickstart his career, made Bruce Springsteen and Whitney Houston household names, and they say he carried Carlos Santana and Aretha Franklin to newfound fame. There's a long, long list Rod Stewart's on here uh They say he revitalized the careers of Carlos Santa, Rod Stewart, and Aretha Franklin. He died yesterday at ninety four . He died. That's a weird thing is they attribute certain celebrity to him. And I think there was n't gonna be any stopping some of these stars. Like the voice of Whitney Houston is not something that he had anything to do with. No, right. But okay . He was, let's see, most recently the chief creative officer for Sony Music, a former head of labels for Columbia, Arista and Jay Records. He's a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He died at his home in Manhattan. He recently had been hospitalized with an upper respiratory infection. You know, as I was reading through this list of people through his six decade career, I see Pink Floyd on here and I thought , is he the one who said, By the way, which one's pink? They have many classic lines and that is among them for sure . Welcome to the machine . Billy Joel, the grateful dead, Alicia Key Simon and Garfunkle, Jennifer Hudson, Barry Maneloon Pink Floyd, Earth Windows Fire, Amither,os Blood and T Seweatars, Kenny G. Christine Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Patti Smith . And many more . Okay . He does say here talking about his ability to identify talent Clive Davis, who passed it at ' ninety four, told Playboy Magazine in twenty thirteen, I didn't necessarily have an ear, but I think I develop one, whether there was a natural ear that was triggered. I don't know the answer to that, but when you see a joplin or a Springsteen, you know, and the statistics start mounting and give you confidence. You think, my God, yeah, I did say yes to Santana . Both his parents died within ten months of each other when he was eighteen . He got a full scholarship out. He moved over with his sister . And they died of random things. The mom had a cerebral hemorrhage, his dad suffered a heart attack , he moved in with his older sister Cena, her husband and their daughter in Queens, while he was attending NYU, where he got a full scholarship and later got another full scholarship to attend Harvard Law . So then he was wife Davis smart . right Right. All . So there you go. Music mogul with the Golden Ear, they say, for talent, dies at ninety four . And now let's hop over to Crazy Town . Oh, that's fun. Yeah Brittany Spears is Oh wait a minute, she's all better . Brittany Spears claims that a thief stole half her wardrobe and half her money, and that led to her rebelling by showing herself as che on Instagram . What? Yeah, I don't know. Brittany Spears is alleging that a thief stole half her wardrobe and her money three years ago , which if I'm Brittany Spears , I never shut up about any crazy stuff that's happening in my life. I feel like it's amazing. I'm just hearing about this now . She's forty four now. She recently made a kind of a shocking baby admission. She wants to have another one. Please someone stop her. She took to her social media to post seventeen images of herself in different outfits as she made the bombshell revelation that half her closet was stolen three years ago . She says, Nana Vectama, just curious as to how many people were able to make me feel so cheap and crazy when my coat's jewelry and half my wardrobe went missing three years ago. Oh, she was n't purposely making herself look cheap. She became cheap because she lost all her stuff. Oh, I'm not sure. Trying to take an angle like I look trash. Yeah , okay. Three years ago was when she and that boyfriend Sash fiance of hers broke up. That is true. Sam, I think is Sam Asgari. I wonder if he's the one who took half her clothes and half her money. You gotta wonder why he was hanging around. I did look at all seventeen pictures and they are they are all her trust in pretty bad stuff. Like she picked out the bad stuff. Yeah. The trashy stuff. The trashy stuff. She says ',s h Itonest ly strange. I don't perhaps miss the clothes. I will say ever since that happened, I went one hundred percent rebelled on Instagram and showed myself as cheap and probably secretly angry. She's saying put thought into how she looked. Okay , I guess, I don't know. Well, they don't want the dog poop on the floor all over your house does look like something's going on. I don't know if it's cheap that I'm thinking seems trashy . Intellectually tacky. Well , yeah, I don't know, but okay, whatever you say . Right? Does she still have fans? . I mean , right. Well, I don't know. I know that all those fans that came out and helped get her removed from that what was that conservatorship? Conser Cvonsatorserhipvatorship They are still following her and applauding her all her success, right? Yes , as well they should because they got her out of this thing and now she's here she is years later. If you look at her Instagram , her posts only get between sixty and one hundred twenty k likes. She's got forty million followers, so I think less people are paying attention and following Or people are like, I don't like that. Yeah , stop it. You gotta cut that out . Anyway, she's , you know, still Brittany the whole time . So yeay . You know, we talked about this a little bit yesterday. TMZ is saying Travis Swift has not Taylor Swift has not sent Blake Lively a wedding invite . You know what? I saw that headline and I thought, didn't we just decide that she's going . We just talked about it yesterday. Yep . There were there were two or three sources that were saying oh she's definitely got her ticket she got her golden ticket to the wedding . They're saying in TMZ and they're actually they're citing page six on here somewhere. I don't know . According to page six, this is on TMZ. According to page six, lively hasn't been invited to Swift's upcoming wedding celebrations with Travis Kelsey despite recent speculation that the longtime friends were beginning to repair their relationship . Page six says the relationship remains strained How could it not? The lady pulled her into her drama. Yep. There's Taylor Swift off on the side going, I'm rooting for you and the next thing you know, she's in the middle of it. She was subpoenaed in connection with the dispute before the subpoena was later withdrawn . Taylor was frustrated about being pulled into the legal fight felt she'd been unnecessarily dragged into the controversy . The fallout created distance between them and they're saying TMZ is saying no . And also over the weekend both of Travis was out and about on the town, but it looked like Taylor and a bunch of her friends all went to her mansion in Rhode Island for their much quieter bachelor. I think I heard there were fireworks or whatever , but for the most part, they weren't seen like in the town or anything . And the bachelorette party they had fireworks? Yeah. That was a couple of weeks ago. That wasn't this weekend. That wasn't this past weekend. No, oh, okay. They didn't have fireworks. It was much quieter than what Travis was up to . And Blake was not there . So So did you have a bachelorette party? I did. You did. Yeah, I think I've told you about it. We went to a mail strip club and I had to, you know, I was the I know John . I remember the story being John was so wasted . John wound up oil wrestling some bimbo. But whose drink or was it someone else that drank his drink? Yeah, his brother drank all his shots. So John would be okay. So that John would be okay. In my wedding photos, his brother Paul is green . And got into a fistfight with his other brother in law out in the front yard of the house. I mean, it was like, it was a crazy night. My night not as crazy, although I did get a lap dance from Dude and all his junk. And you liked it . I could have lived without it. Oh, did they force it on you? Were they like? Yes. They put a chair on the stage and said, And now the bride to be will join us on the stage and I looked and my girlfriends are all like, Yay ! Off you go . I'm like, okay . And how does that go? Is he like , you know, do you want the special treatment backstage or do you just want me to ? No, he just did a dance around me. And his junk was over there. I don't know how that stuff works. I really don't. I didn't even have one . At all. Oh, you didn't have nothing. Oh, your rose didn't take for dinner or something. And oh maybe do some there's nothing that you could say was a bachelor part y at all . And probably for the best part. I have zero memory of anything besides maybe a meal . So they might be hearing this and going, what the Yeah, we went out. went We we went crazy and you don't remember any of them . There's no crazy. All right, let's eat a few headlines here . You can just swallow the headline or we could chew on it for a minute . There's a couple interesting things in here. Jaws is doing a special screening in the water in Martha's Vineyard where they shot it. I love it. Yeah . Movie Guards will get to float where Spielberg's horror classic was originally filmed in nineteen seventy four. Can I give you a fast fact? Of course. When John Williams first played the two note jaws theme for Steven Spielberg . He laughed . He thought John Williams was joking and expected something more melodic and was like very funny, John . And John replied , The sophisticated approach you would like me to take isn't the approach you took with the film I just watched . Oh , it wasn't. No very sophisticated. No. So he watched the film and this was his inspiration . It's so perfect. It is perfect . But that's funny that like Spielberg's a That's a dear hilarious . And John went, No, that's it. Now this is it. And it's forever like a pop culture nightmare. Yeah . You know, so this was like his first major motion picture . Spielberg's, right? Like a major I think so. And or it was among the first like the thing that kicked off the summer blockbuster, that's for sure Yes, they do credit it with that . I wonder what John Williams' status was at the time. I mean now he is the guy who's done those soundtracks for all of the incredible pictures I would say is done while his status went on to they, you know, he added to it with other films. I would say a guy who's the top , you know, soundtrack who's being called in for everything. He was probably already a huge star. Yeah . John Williams was maybe it would have to be. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. Well that's what I was talking about. He did it as a butt on a budget and was he affordable ? He was not his first movie according to his IMDB is nineteen seventy five Jaws. Oh, no, it's a daddy, nineteen fifty nine . Oh yeah. I mean, I know that he was a composer of great accomplishment long before short films. That's what I'm trying to say. Like yeah. People knew people who knew knew and like that's a thing that's really interesting about Oengo Boyengo, what's his name? Danny Elfman. Danny Elfman is that we knew I knew him as the lead singer of the new wave band Ongo Bingo . I don't know who had heard him compose and decided to start having him do film . Then all of a sudden he's the guy he's that your mind right Yeah he did a lot of stuff in the sixties. A couple you might have heard of The Towering Inferno. Oh yeah, Valley of the Dall. Oh yeah, so he was well established. Yeah, but he's done every movie except I think it says except five with Spielberg . Yes, he's got some of the most memorable his first little motif seventy four the Sugar Lim Express and then just No, he started doing all of it. Well, Jaws is doing a special screening and you can watch it in the water , which seems like a great idea . Ricky Javase has a new show . It's called Ally Cats. It's a Netflix show and here's the actual headline. Ricky Gervaise's Ally Cats Netflix trailer, and you thought Heathcliff terrified the neighborhood. Nine lives, zero Fs . So there's that. If you and they say it actually is charming and yet acerbic making social commentary . Here's your next one. Keanu Reeves to star in live action Lego hybrid movie coming from the Toy Story Director, Josh Cooley . Toy Story four, that guy did. I saw all the usual names that you see though in the Toy Story credits as I listened to Taylor Swift, which I stayed for you love that song? No because no one would leave. I was with people and they just didn't they didn't get up and I kept going , okay, I'll wait . But anyway, all the usual Pixar directors, producers, the ones you expect recognizable name, they're there I only have to assume that John Ratzenberger is in this. He is not. Wait. Doesn't he play the one that's like a dog or something isn't you ? He's not the dog. You're right. He is I thought he was the pig. Is he Ham the pig ? But either way, I don't if very he plays ham Okay, yeah, he's probably in there and and I know that's like one of their things that they always get that guy's voice in there somehow, which is cool, but I don't he doesn't stand out . He's not a lead character . Next headline, Netflix cooks up another hot ones spinoff . Hot ones is a guy by the name of Sean Evans who would interview he'd sit down with gradually hutter hot sauces and wings and eat them with celebrities and ask questions while they were suffering . And it has spun off to hot ones versus hot ones wing pong and now they're doing Netflix's has ordered hot ones extra heat . Does anybody know where that guy came out of? I don't. Like, Matty, you're a podcast guy. Like where did that guy ? Did he just have an idea? Was he a radio guy? And then he realized he needed not just to do interviews. There had to be a hook , which is, of course, the hot chicken. He did . He was a freelance interviewer for Complex Magazine . And Complex started doing a lot of multi media stuff and then he came out of that. Good for him. So I think this actually lands pretty soon too. Like yeah, it's gonna launch after Netflix's live stream of the Home Run Derby on july thirteenth. And it looks like it's Will Ferrell is going to be on it promoting some new series he's got coming up. But they're saying each episode will be thirty minutes and we'll see Sean Evans interviewing celebrities at settings that are inspired by major Ten Po moments on Netflix like live sporting events, film and series launches, et cetera. So if you love hot ones, there's yet another one for you. And I'm out of time. What's coming up? Your brain after these Summer's a gift. The gift of days that last a little longer, a brighter state of mind. So give yourself a new Kia at the KIA Summer Sticker Sales event , especially tagged vehicles including the Sarrento, Sportage, Carnival, as well as the Neuro Hybrid, all backed by a ten year one hundred thousand mile limited powertrain warranty, so the gift of summer can keep on giving for summers to come.

There will be sunshine today in most places sunny and low highs in the low eighties. No , so another summer day . Such as they are. That's what you want. That's why we're here . Bring the good weather . Today is Amazon Prime Day. Is it for those of you who are, you know, hold off on making any big purchases until everything is slashed down to the awesome . I don't know. I don't I'm not an Amazon guy, so I don't I don't. Yeah . But now you know, prime day . Also the NBA draft starts tonight at five . It's not nearly as important as the NFL draft, but I still think that there are people who follow this stuff like religion . Right. There's definitely right. It doesn't get nearly the press. I'm sure the guys down the hall though could tell you a guy's size and weight ? Yes. Oh, he's quite asbastial. Are you kidding? See the bundle of steel on that? Hands on that reach . Wingspan all the stuff. All of it. All the stats . This has become a running theme in, I believe, a lot of people's lives. And I think that there's a lot of debate about how much news you consume? If you're not getting any, then what are you just checked out ? You must not have any horses in any race if you're not up on everything That's not really necessarily true, but I understand what you're trying to say . Like there's a lot of stuff up in the air in the world . You must be fine if you're not interested or saving yourself so you can sleep at night. Yeah . Do you ever feel like you're maxed out on news? Yes . Because the majority of it is not good . There's a reason. Our brains weren't built to be burdened by dooms scrolling or Fox News or CNN twenty forty seven . A new study notes that humans evolved to pay close attention to danger , mostly clear and present threats . That is how you're to keep you alive . Yeah, I think existential threats . Everything on the planet tries to live. Yes. You know, you 're in us . Anything, you bug, you get near it, it'll go, woah, I gotta get out of here. Right . They run for their life. They do. It is, that's an interesting take on this. It bears thought. Like that's, you know, it's not good for us to be , well, and there are people who are just so hyper focused, especially in politics. Well, it's just it's like please find another hobby. Well I think that in reality there are people who feel it's important, but I also think there are people who've lost control of it . Like that is a reality. In our lives today, the instinct is being overwhelmed by an endless supply of bad news from around the world. So our brains are meant to keep us safe , but in this situation overwhelming it with bad news is not doing your brain any good. It just makes you feel like everything is doom and gloom . This is a global struggle . So while it feels uniquely American , that's not the case . A lot of people are caught doomed scrolling on a regular basis and find themselves having difficulty peeling off . And at night might be the worst possible time from your bed to pick up your phone and take a look because good luck sleeping. Yeah. And now if you can, that's great. Well, guess what you're gonna dream about? Doom and gloom . Fort of people worldwide say they at least sometimes or often avoid the news in an effort to take a break well, I mean you and I read all day and or I mean I get alerts from fifty different papers and I'm constantly clicking on some story and so I try to give myself at least two hours a day where I don't even have my phone on me. And during the weekend, I try I let my emails build up and then I'll just on Sunday night, I'll go through them all and then on vacation I get, way behind. But I figure, you know , I'll catch up. If the news overwhelms you, let me repeat this point . Fort percent of people worldwide say they at least sometimes often avoid the news. In the US, it's forty two percent. It's over sixty percent of people in Bulgaria, Turkey, Croatia, and Greece avoid the news in order to control the negativity . Just you don't it 's like finding out something that you can't effect change on . It's like worrying about something that isn't having necessarily a direct effect on your life at the cost of caring about the things that are around you. Like it's just this underlying kind of pool of negativity that you're just get out of the pool . Well, I think that there you're touching on something where people will say, well, what a luxury that you don't have to know, you know you're not have to either. But that's the thing there. was If something that I could do to cause change, I'd get in line with you. Right. And we'd get that done . And if it's about just reading and voting, that I already do . But in terms of just losing sleep last night over something that I can't do anything about right. It isn't the value isn't there so that is the right to live your life, you know with your with your own plot details in mind, like you can cut that out of your life and still lead a perfectly full life. You're not going to know what anyone's talking about at the party where everyone starts talking about politics , but that's fine. Just get up and walk away. You know, the time , it's a generation previous to us actually that got home from work and turned clicked on the news and they watched an hour of news before dinner or during dinner, but that was the time when people got caught up on stuff and then they were done. Yep . That was it. Or they would read the paper, you know, whatever the headlines are , however far into the paper they could get. It's not like everybody read it cover to cover. But also the news used to be much more reasonable. Well, it used to be fact . It was here are the facts as we know them. There was no editorialization , not in the news story itself. I mean, there are whole channels that call themselves news that are opinion and conspiracies . It's we're just not you can't believe anything these days. So it's like why are we reading everything when it's half of it is absolutely skewed to propagandize things that are happening around the world to fit either to either piss you off or to f it your worldview. Here's another statement from the study and we know this to be fact. A study points out that decades of research shows that our human minds weigh negative information more heavily than positive. Absolutely. We're drawn to it faster and we remember it longer . So that person, it's never happened here, but that writes the radio station and says you guys suck . Yeah got a thousand texts that say I love you and I want to marry you and you're the most great looking radio station I've ever seen in the history of radio stations, but the one guy or girl that writes you something you said was stupid. I'm changing my station, right? What? 's the one we focus on. And that is what's happening in the news as well. Yep. It's like part of our brain to hyperfocus on the negative. So what do we do ? Trying to block it all out probably won't work . News will find its way to us in one way or another , but I believe trying to control the amount of negativity you consume is the goal . So whether it's putting your phone away or turn I know that no one's gonna turn their phone off. We just don't. No, I don't turn it off. I just stick it on the charger Well, get away from it. But yeah, the idea that you just go, no, this is just gonna be off. I don't think anyone really know why because I'm gonna need it at some point. Oh, I got to , you know , pay a bill at the bank. So now I got to turn the whole thing. I got to wait for it to come back on. It just doesn't work. You know, I gotta check my messages as I walk by. My friend My friend has been talking for years about how she wants a kind of smartphone , one where you could still go on a browser and use the internet, but there's only a few apps that you can download, like Uber, for example. Right. The things you need to live your life these days. Yeah , but not you can't have any social media on it. Oh, well, she could delete those. But that . Right . It's better if they're not allowed. We want to we want somebody to tell us . We need someone else to put the to put the controls on it . Summer is a gift. The gift of days that last a little longer, a brighter state of mind. So gift yourself a new Kia at the Kia Summer Sticker Sales event, especially tagged vehicles including the Saranto, Sportage, Carnival, as well as the Neuro Hybrid. All backed by a ten year one hundred thousand mile limited powertrain warranty , so the gift of summer can keep on giving for summers to come.

That's what the story is about. Very interesting. And they say the key to the key is to manage consumption and sources. So it comes down to you controlling how much you let in . Yeah . It means you should try to keep the news to designated buckets of time as much as possible , stick to accurate, trustworthy sources . Yeah, your friend's friend on Facebook is not an accurate source. Right. So anyway, I do think this is to remind us that ultimately we're in charge of what we let in . And if it's causing you any kind of sleepless night Yeah, like it can cause crisis . And I've seen those posts where people are saying it feels like they're on the end of a breakdown. And you just go, Oh my gosh, I want to just pull you off of Facebook and show you a flower. Yeah, go take a walk in the woods . Next story. Okay, that's a good story . I like it as well. Yeah . Thousands of international soccer fans have been coming to America for the World Cup. You know, it's here if you haven't heard Yeah and now people are joking about going out on the town and gaining the FIFA fifteen . Oh goodness . America F yeah , is fluffing everyone up . Well, our plates are huge and food is ample . There's one thing America has no shortage of, and it's delicious calories and there are videos of on social media foreigners going wild for ranch , fast food , donkeys , raising canes, chipotle, taco bell , barbecue , steak, clamp chowda , pizza stuff. Deli sandwiches, it's all here . The melting pot. They got it all . You name it, we got it. People are also plotting it. fifteen is actually really funny. Well, haven't heard this since the freshman fifteenth. That's exactly what I was going to point out. Like there's things, there's times in your life and the first year of college people talk about that. Right. When suddenly your mom's not in control of what you eat anymore. Right . And the hours when you eat is no longer managed in any kind of they say they're closing the door of the bar. We gotta get out. Oh look like there's a pizza place next . Three dollars for a whole pizza. All right . Anyway, people are plotting how they're going to take some of their new discoveries home with them and how they're going to get the weight off them , but they want to bring ranch and barbecue sauces along with other snacks and packaged foods and even booze back to wherever they came from . That's fun. It is fun . It's fun to travel and then find yourself in a place where you're trying something you haven't. Right. And you've heard about and you get there and you believe in Americans when, you go on the road and you road trip, you are subject to what is available near the highway. Right. Like and that's the and whenever you travel, like, let's say you land in any country , you're not generally speaking, you're not going grocery shopping and cooking meals at your house. You go out every meal . And everyone knows that restaurant food, no matter even forget fast food, restaurant food. It's richer. It's more buttery. It's butter and saltier. Yes. That's just the way it is They'll be fine. They'll lose those fifteen as soon as they get back to their normal routines. The FIFA fifteen is real though, everyone and bringing extra clothes, some in bigger sizes . Just enjoy yourself. You know America is so fun. I was talking to Christina and she was saying, you know, what should we do next year next year with the kids for like a vacation . And I just I just always sort of default to. Well, we always have fun at Disneyland, you know, that's kind of an easy . And but we want to finally start traveling like I haven't seen anywhere. Right . At all. Your kids are at a good age. And they're at an age where it's like, okay, well where can we where's the starter trip? Like we have a friend who took their kids to Japan and they went , Japan's not built for hyperactive little kids like that's a very respectful society that does not speak any English and they don't want your kids running around like crazy. I think my kids were eleven and thirteen when we went there and that was a good age, but it was a border it was on the border because my younger son was like, I don't want to see any more shrines. I don't want to go to any more graveyards. I don't want to ride bikes through the bamboo forest again. Like he was just done with it. He was over it .
