TALK TO ME, TEXT IT

What happens when one of the world's greatest athletes hawks weight loss drugs as a "lifestyle choice" rather than admitting it's a shortcut? Kennedy from Fox News doesn't hold back in her scathing critique of Serena Williams' latest endorsement deal with Rowe Telehealth, a company connecting patients with GLP-1 medications. As we explore in this episode, the tennis star's claim that she "couldn't lose weight no matter how hard she trained" rings hollow when you consider her access to world-class nutritionists, trainers, and resources most people can only dream about.

The morning news roundup continues with a United Airlines flight that never took off after a restless passenger decided to smoke marijuana in the bathroom during a delay. The pilot ultimately cancelled the entire flight when crew members became concerned about potential secondhand exposure. It's yet another reminder that one person's poor decisions can impact hundreds of others in shared spaces.

Most disturbing is the account of Oliver Alvis, a former train driver who claims he hasn't slept for nearly two years. This medical mystery has cost him everything – his career, home, and health. Even powerful surgical anesthetics apparently fail to render him unconscious. His description of the experience is haunting: "Sleep deprivation isn't just exhaustion. It dismantles your spirit." His struggle raises the question for all of us: What's the longest you've gone without sleep?
