Transcripts For WTXF Good Day Philadelphia At 7A 20160219 :

But cloudy later on and then tonight were down to about 35 degrees, not as cold as last night and we will talk about those mild temperatures coming up in just a few minutes, but we have got to get to traffic and i95, i guess it is northbound side right bob kill any delco. Ninetyfive northbound accident scene and it the is causing delays in south philadelphia. Heres a live look at the accident, it is northbound involving this tractor trailer just north of the walt whitman bridge. The lets go for a ride sky fox over the scene to give you a bird eye view, this tractor trailer looks like there is a car squeezed in between the tractor trailer, right, right here and that concrete barrier. We have one, two, three cars involved here and the tractor trailer. Again all lanes are block, they are trying to get the cars out of here. This is second vehicle that they have pulled away. This is all north bound i95, go ahead chopper we will pull out take a look at the skid marks from the cars or trucks jamming their brakes here. How far back does this go. This goes back to the girard point double decker bridge so from say the stadium area north heres ramps from the walt whitman bridge and then further north up into center city. So anyone leaving the airport area trying to come into philadelphia northbound i95 a parking lot. Let go back to my maps as i show you, that is the ground shot but again we are backup from the girard point double decker. Heading north bound or heading out of the house right now coming into the city, jump off at broad street and work your way through south philadelphia, that will keep you out of this backup which is again just grid lock bumper to bumper all the way in. But some sun glare across the board as we start to take a live look at the ben franklin bridge but even though the sun glare is out there dont let it fool you, we could still have some ice like that situation that occurred, yesterday on the kelly drive. Good news for mass transit commuters last night was a rough ride home on the trenton line. Having is opened and we are rolling on the rails because of the fire in holmesberg close to the track. Trenton line was suspended with amtrak, everything is operating normal this morning. A little fenderbender in glenside at line kill than pike and mount carmel avenue. Bug news yesterday afternoon, donald trump making headlines because of what the pope said about him. Check out cover of the New York Post and New York Daily News today. Daily news calling trump the anti christ, and, the pope, showing trump and the pope in a boxing ring, with the head line, bible belter. Bible belters. Well, what impact will this have on voters. We got caulk news nevada, primary in South Carolina steve is on the this story at the constitution center. Reporter donald trum april announce he had he was running for president in june and every three days since you have asked our viewers what impact with whatever trump says before will have an voters. Apparently anything he says has zero impact, maybe positive impact from calling john mccain names. He didnt like him, because he likes his veterans that are in the capture. George will on Fox News Sunday last week. Issue then was remember he blamed george w. Bush for 9 11 and said he lied about the iraq war. George will says that the Chris Wallace, i know i have said this 50 times but this is it. This is the straw that breaks the cammals back and Chris Wallace just laughed. They will say it again. This will have a negligible impact as i go past my time because there is not many catholics going to the poles tomorrow in South Carolina. Just 7 percent of that states voters are considered to be roman catholic. By the way, i wish the pope had a lot to say about walls when he wases in philadelphia because we are still seeing remnants of some of his walls here on independent mall where we see these steel barricade up and shut down most of the city then. But if you missed it last night there was a town hall down in South Carolina and the topic of the pope was topic a for all of the candidates, obviously, with donald trump. Heres Anderson Cooper asking him about it. I dont Like Fighting with the pope actually. I dont think it the is a fight. I think he said something much softer then was originally reported by the media i think he heard one side of the story which is probably by the mexican government. A person thinks only about building walls where ever they may be, and not building bridges, is not christian. Somehow the government of mexico, spoke with the pope, i mean they spent a lot of time with the pope and by the time he left he made a statement. Do you think the government of mexico got the pope to say this. I dont think they said it that way but they probably talked about isnt it terrible that mr. Trump want to have border security, et cetera, et cetera. The pope made the statement. I think it was probably little bit nicer statement than what was reported by you folks in the media because after i read it, it was a little bit softer. Donald trump was softer on the pope calling him wonderful last night at that town hall. Alex and mike, trump is doing great the in the latest National Poll. Remember, ted cruz was beating him in the earlier National Poll released this week so you have to think which poll do you believe. Cbs had a National Poll. He is at the 35 percent. Cruz second all the way down at 18 percent, almost double his closest competitor in that National Poll and in south carolines is doing better than National Polls. The poles are crazy. Three days ago, trump was way up by 20. Yesterday cruise was up by two and new you today trump is up by 20 again. As we have noticed when the previous caucus you will see polls say one thing and when people vote, we will see a completely different thing. Go back to iowa caucus there. Big fire overnight. That is right, erupted outside a Cracker Barrel restaurant that happened just before 11 30 on the 1200 block of East Lancaster avenue in downingtown. Fire officials telling fox 29 that the fire started in a camper trailer outside of the restaurant and it spread inside. No one was hurt. The causes not yet been determined. Fire fighters spent hours battling flames at a home on overhill drivein upper darby last night. It started just after 6 00 oclock and it spread to a second home, the flames, not put out until just after 10 00. There are no reports of anyone being hurt in the the fire and so far no word on a possible cause there.

As it moves up the coast it depend on the temperatures when this happens, what kind of precipitation, we will get, and how much will depend on the track of the storm whether it the is further off shore, further inland. So a lot of different factors. It is timing, it is temperature and track. It three is ts. We will watch all have of those as we get into the early part of next week. We will have a better handle on it. We would give so advance warning. The heres why, because you will remember with the blizzard and all of those flooding problems, we coincided with the full moon.

Good morning, we are looking live from the scene of this mess at i95 northbound just north of the walt whitman bridge. A tractor trailer, and at least three or four cars were all involved. It looks like they have got most of the vehicles out of there except this one vehicle squeezed right here between the tractor trailer, and the conn korean barrier, a lot of police are on the scene, all of the lanes intermittently block over the last 40 minutes or soso when you shut down i95 at any point in time. Look at the skid marks and then consequently crashed in the concrete barrier. This is a jammo from pretty much. The fire regard point double decker all the way up past the stadium area past the walt whitman bridge and in toward Center City Philadelphia so you will feel impact as you come over the walt whitman, even coming up from south philadelphia, there is the curve and stadium area, surface train in the background there.

Jump off at broad street and if you get on at columbus boulevard, washington avenue, you will avoid that backup, but otherwise we will start to see delays on the bennie with some sun glare. Grab your golden slippers and lets go, mummers taking over manayunk tomorrow, 17 string band, a mini mummers parade in manayunk from 11 00 a. M. To 6 00 p. M.

What is the good anded bad were being number one in the kentry. That is a good question, alex, it comes both ways. The bad news you have the jay hawks right up our butts, right behind us my alma matter is right on your tail. I knew that would come out, essentially so i thought i would address it first. There are challenges because it is the first time for us and a lot more attention, lot more, every where we go, you can tell, you know, it is the biggest crowd, it is the biggest game and our guys are only eight to 22 years old. They want to enjoy the hype but the way to stay there is by staying focused on the task at hand in front have of you Getting Better every day. It is always a balance. You want to enjoy it but keep Getting Better every day good it does help with recruiting to be number one, in some sense. Oh, definitely. When you call a recruit where ever they are in the country they know who you are, they have seen you play so a lot of the top players it is prestigious to them to be recruited by the number one team, but we still to have get the right guys and fit into villanova. We have mentioned the team. No doubt this is exciting. They are young. They are 18 years old. How you do you contain that hype and make sure they stay focused. All this excitement can only distract you, being number one does not help you in anyway, in the butler game on saturday. Not in anyway f anyway they hurt you because butler is more fired up to play you. They have nothing to lose. It is a challenge. That is what makes good teams good tell me this coach, did you know on paper and in preseason, that i would be this good. No, no mike. I actually feel like last year our Team Last Year at this point was better then this team is right now but last year at this time, kentucky and duke and kansas and wisconsin, they were a lot better, so the rankings really have to do with a lot of regardable how good everybody else is but i do think that this team, this year even though we are number one this year we can get better. We can continue to improve ape that has been the goal of any team. Are you going to cry tomorrow at 2 30 at senior day. I do. We have five seniors, we have ryan archie arcidiacono and dan youll ochefu who started since they were freshman but we have three walk ons, pat barrel, henry low and Kevin Rafferty that we made scholarship players this year and they have been big, big part of this.

Real quickly here we would be remiss if we didnt mention Womens Basketball coach, harry, if he wins on sunday that is 700 wins. He is, incredible, he is an institution here. I dont think there has ever been a coach in Womens Basketball that hasnt gone to the New York Post<\/a> and New York Daily News<\/a> today. Daily news calling trump the anti christ, and, the pope, showing trump and the pope in a boxing ring, with the head line, bible belter. Bible belters. Well, what impact will this have on voters.

I dont think there has ever been a coach in Womens Basketball<\/a> that hasnt gone to the Basketball Hall<\/a> of fame. I assume he will be a lock. He is a West Philadelphia<\/a> guy. He is pure philly. Great basketball mine. Were proud of him here at villanova. He started at age 22. Real quickly here coach, where do you get your suits. I guess i have to talk to about my guy gabriel denunzio, he has his spot, in newtown square. He will love that shout out. Good. Well, thank you so much, coach. Good luck tomorrow and lets go get them. Hopefully youre the number one seed in march madness. We will follow you all the way, good luck. Thanks, guys, great talking to you. Butler verse villanova tomorrow afternoon at 2 30 it is senior day. Guess where you can watch it. Right here on fox. That is right. I like to say fox. He makes good points, it is hard to be number one, you just cant sit there and be im number one. You have to affect us on staying on top. I know a lot of coach that he is dont want number one going into the tournament. It gets to your head a little bit. A little bit. Donald trump verse the pope. How about that. Why pope francis is calling the president ial hopeful not so christian. But first lifestyles of the rich and famous, a new study says, that life, live along longer but how much longer. How your paychecks impacts your health. I dont think this this is shocking at all. The amount of years and number of years they live longer will surprise you. Fuzz are a rich man, the Brookings Institution<\/a> find you live 12 years longer then a lower income man if you are a rich woman you live ten years longer then a poor woman. You have better access to working out, health care and the like. But this could affect Social Security<\/a>. As you know longer you wait to take your Social Security<\/a> benefits the bigger those checks are. Is there talks about cutting those benefits. Poor people who take checks earlier, their checks are smaller. They live for a shorter period of time that mens they have way less money over a short period of time. Lets raise the retirement age to 70 over 65. That probably would not be fair for people that, you know, do the really tough hard work out there in the world. Right. And in some cases this study talks about the fact that they dont have that, Job Satisfaction<\/a> that some of the higher income earners are. They want to retire earler what a difference though. Yes. Twelve years. Yes. I think fourth prescription medication, stuff like that. Yeah. A lot of people talk about even when it comes down to healthy eating, healthier foods, they are more expensive. Exactly. All right, lauren, we will see you monday, have a good weekend. Okay. Harsh word, donald trump verse pope, lets talk about this, we have somebody from villanova coming in. She teaches religion. Wonder what that opinion is. Later terrifying video helicopter crashes near pearl hash on memorial site right in front of the tourist. What witnesses heard moments before that crash. Maybe screaming. Fresh off a big night taylor swift wins another award, how she once again references her beef with kanye west. Later new chops champion fridays south jersey but can he compete with our jen fred . They will heat things up in the kitchen. They are chopping it up, coming up at 9 00. Okay. Donald trump, backing off a little bit last night, on his, war of words, with pope francis. Okay. All over the wall, the fence, can you help me because they are in the helping me in the control room. All over the wall or fence or whatever you want to call it. Lets listen to the comment that he made yesterday afternoon after he made the pope said donald trump because you want to put up the wall, you are in the christian. For a religious leader to question a persons faith is disgraceful. Im proud to be a christian. As president i will not allow christianity, to be consistently attack and weak ebb unlike what is happening now with our current president ; okay good this started at pope francis was flying back from rome to mexico yesterday. A reporter questioned him about immigration, and english translation to his response is this a person who thinks only about building walls, where ever they may be, and not building bridges, is in the christian. Donald trump was quick to fire back, early in the day. Using the government of mexico got himself to say that. I dont think they said it that way. They probably talked about isnt it terrible this that mr. Trump wants to have border security, et cetera, et cetera. The pope made the statement. It was probably a let will bit nicer statement then what was reported by you folks in the media because after i read it, it was a little bit softer good again that was last night. Im sorry, that was last night during the town hall. He back off his earlier comments when he called the popes comments on the plane, you know, almost disrespectful and shameful, Something Like<\/a> that. Kevin hughes is here. Good to see you, kevin. Associate professor of theology at villanova. That is right. Good to have you here. Good to be here. Im catholic. Im not questioning the pope, let me tell you that. Was ate pope eighth the to question someones christianity, their religion. I think over a wall. Well, the question is first i think it is perfect to see what the pope actually said. The pep was very careful to distinguish f someone is only talking about walls and in the talking about bridges then they are in the christian. He aid that is in the part of the gospel. Then he was careful to say as to whether that is true donald trump i give him benefit of the doubt. He was careful to make sure he has distance from calling donald trump out specifically. But are we mixing two things, one is a policy, a government policy that he might put in if he is president to put up a wall between the United States<\/a> and mexico. Should religion be thought of in the the same breath as that government policy. I think it is important that policy always has a moral demeaning. The pope isnt really asking for any particular policy, he is just looking for a policy that bears moral dimension of the welcoming of the stranger, of taking care of the poor, and these are the elements of the policy he wants to make sure we think about. He says a lot of people were saying last night donald trump probably wont be hurt in the polls or voting booths by this that some conservatives in america dont particularly like the pope francis. I think there is a lot of concern. He says things that make condition servetives nervous. Even though he doesnt change theology or anything like that, the word that come out of his mouth seem to be more progressive. That is certainly the way it sound and way we receive things on our political spectrum for sure. Speaking of political spectrums last night at the that town hall last night they asked other republican candidates on the stage with him what he thought the about this and john kasich of ohio said that. He has opened the walls and doors of the church to lots of people who didnt understand it. Now heres what i will say, we have a right to build a wall but i have to tell you there are too many walls between us. We need bridges between fuss we fix the problem in washington because all they do is have walls. That is kind of what the pope is talking about too building bridges. He talks about it all the time all around the world. He is not the saying it is never appropriate the to build a wall. If you only talking about walls and not talking about bridges, then you have not been a christian. That is not what they said to do in the bible certainly. Jeb bush weighed in. Here he is. I dont question peoples christianity. It is a relationship they have with their lord and savior and themselves. I just dont think it ace prep eighth to question Donald Trumps<\/a> faith. He knows what his faith is. He has a, if he has a relationship with the lord, fantastic. If he doesnt, it is in of my business. There you go in of my business. Is it the popes business. I think the pope didnt say donald trump wasnt a christian. It is the popes business to say look to not the attend to the need of the strangers, to not welcome a stranger is not a christian thing to do. Thank you for your perspective. Thank you. Boy, did you see this footage . Is this footage out of hawaii. The helicopter going down. We will show it the to you after the break. Come on back. I get out of work and i go to the store, and somebodys, smellin around, mmm i smell cookies. I say, oh no, you just smell me. I just got out of work. Thats honey bunches of oats, thats all. I say dont eat me now. Are you busy . Im just daydreaming. About your dream trip to italy . Yeah. With your sisters, to shop and see the sights. Is it that obvious . Youve been staring at that new instant game from the pennsylvania lottery. Yeah, its the price is right. With top prizes of 300,000. Is that painting crooked, or is it just me . [announcer] want to see your dreams come to life . You could scratch your way to instant winning. The pennsylvania lottery. Bring your dreams to life. So now im not being perky, telling you that drivers that switch to progressive save an average of 548 whoo i mean, whoo. Okay, this is in pearl harbor. There were people on the shore there they jump in the water try to save the people in the helicopter. They needed a knife to cut off a seat belt of one of the passenger. The 16 yearold. And that 16 yearold is in critical condition. The witnesses her helicopter sputtering before the crash. They knew something was about to happen. The pilot, is credited with controlling the crash and avoiding potential for more serious injuries, for example, the tourist standing by on the shore there or if they hit land. Soften the blow by hitting the water but it is Shallow Water<\/a> so people could get out of the thing. So scar toy see. 7 39. Taylor swift wins a middle finger statue. No, have you ever heard of these. Well, i have heard of that. I guess we cap not show it. At the nme award for best International Solo<\/a> artist. We recorded the acceptance speech she talked about how at ward was pretty fitting, following the kanye west drama at the grammys. The heres what she had to say. Got at ward in the mail. I got to be on west you, when you first open up the box, it is a little aggressive. Then you get used to it. You know what, i kind of like it, it is kind of like walls. But just saying, at first, First Impressions<\/a> are weird here but i understand that this is a strange compliment. I think it is exactly the way you put it, it is aggressive. Can you imagine you she someone your home these are my awards. Yes. I think of you. So, she took it home, three awards by the way at the same event includingal one of the year for her 1989 album. Which is at the grammys she got album of the year. The shes just sweeping up, isnt she. Well, good for her, she gets another award. I cant believe she has a whole home filled with awards at this point. Will this go to the front or push it to the back. I would put it right up front, right at the front door. Get up, everybody. But dont hit that Snooze Button<\/a>. Seriously. I never thought you could get too much sleep but man we found this report. You can get so many sleep you are really hurting your health, we will give you exact amount of hours you should be sleeping overnight. But this is weekend for wildcats they are number within in the country and they are taking on butler tomorrow. We talk College Hoops<\/a> with mike missanelli. And talk about the eagles and phillies and what the sixers did last night. How about we talk sports in general. Maybe some lacrosse. Well, not too much snow left in the pocono mountains after this weekend they will be spring skiing conditions, the warm temperatures that we have on the way, High Pressure<\/a> is building in today and it will give us sunshine to start but we do have a bank of clouds scheduled to move in later on, it will be about 42 degrees, and then we will watch for this cold front that should ant live until weekend is almost over. We will take our future cast to sunday afternoon where we will see cloud cover but rain doesnt move in until after 7 00 oclock. It looks like it will rain sunday night in the early hours of monday morning and maybe to the north they will get welcomed snow in the pocono mountains and then all al out of here by middle of rush hour on monday. It is significant because it will put cold temperatures in place after a very mild weekend and that will, determine the type, help determine the type of precipitation we will get in the middle of the week. The so right new be prepared for these cold temperatures, 23 degrees in philadelphia teens to the north of us and to the the south of us, it is 16 degrees in millville right now and yes, possibility is here it looks like it will happen in some form or fashion, a coastal storm, tuesday into wednesday, with what remains to be determined is what kind of precipitation we will get. Whether it is rain, snow or a combination of both. As we get closer to the time we will have a better handle but we will let you know it its possible. It is why. Potentially it is because it will coincide once again with the blizzard with the full moon. We are not calling for a blizzard but could get tidal flooding and wind and beach erosion with the the coastal storm that coincides with already higher tides with the the full moon. It is 42 degrees today. Look at tomorrow, 59, 57 degrees with the late shower on sunday, and cloudy skies, but to still looks good on sunday, and then we have, cooler temperatures as we get in the middle of the next week and maybe a mess, bob kelly, tuesday into wednesday. Um, let me mark down a personal day. Maybe a mess. 7 46. We have a problem for i95 for gang from delco or airport, tractor trailer, four vehicles, all tying us up here, northbound lanes of i95, between the walt whitman bridge and center sit the eye philadelphia at least they have the got the two far right lanes opened but we are jammo from the philly international airport, all the way up through the stadium air was, just north of the whitman and that is where the accident sits. So coming from the south and heading in towards downtown a few extra minutes out of there. Another hit on the 30 bypass, right here near 113, tying folks upcoming out of the downingtown, a crash in wilmington south on i95 right here near martin lieutenant are king boulevard heading down toward that 495 split. Coming from south jersey not bad we will throw in sun glare as well as you work your way toward the walt whitman bridge. Trade dead lane in the nba came and went yesterday. Sixers didnt do anything. Yes. Some people thought they might for a second. Jahlil and nerlens. Yes. Mike missanelli, 97. 5, the fanatic welcome back to good day philadelphia. Good morning guys, good to see you. I heard people expecting maybe one would be dealt. Yes, cannot do it yet because of the embiid factor. Embiid has that bad bone in his foot. They have to figure out whether that is healthy first before they make a move. If he cannot play then they have to keep the two guys. Would there be anyway to keep all three. Would i keep all three, if im a coach i would make it work. One guy coming off bench, inter spurs between two different positions. And then get a shooter, get the a point guard and then you have something that no other team in the the nba has, depth on the front court. People feel like we have been waiting for embiid, maybe it will not happen good he has never played. This is the year you find out. If this bone will hold up, it will hold up this year. How about some super glue, try to super glue will hold anything,. He was so good in college with the brief career he had in kansas. And now it is the nba. I know youre a kansas guy. Sure. But he is number two in the the country behind nova. Kansas. Kansas jay hawks. Who is number one though. Nova. We just talked to jay wright. Yes. Lets talk about the phillies, pitchers and catchers. Interesting year. Who is this aaron nola. He will be their number one starter. He he not really a number one starter. As they get better and better. He is more of a number two. But they will use him as his ace which ties high for his status right now. Really young. He will make mistake. This is a transition years where they have to see what kind of prospects they have in the young guys on the team, whether they are any good or not. Will we want to go to the stadium. Because it is different. You wont have old guard, september for ryan howard. They will have all these different players thaw can go out and see if they are any good. You get to know them. Im going down to spring training im exited to go down to spring training. New guys there. They have a table where only veterans could sit. That table has been blown out. There was a line of demar case, stars would sit here and rookies and younger players within down there and you you never crossed the line. It is no longer like that. Baseball political clubhouse. Phillies, getting to know you. Im a big fan of college basketball. So are you. What has happened to st. Joes, Phil Martelli<\/a> doing a great job. They are an under the radar team and could be dangerous come playoff time. Like lasalle was a couple years ago when they won a couple round. I think st. Joes will win a couple round. They are strong, solid, under the radar. Nobody knows about them. That is good. That is bembry, future pro right there. We are holding on to this and determined. With the eagles, sixers, phillies, this is what we have. We will see a big tournament. It is like the horse, smarty jones, you grab on to it, this year it is villanova hopefully they can stay in it and get number one seed. Can temple get in. Loss to villanova was what hurt them, bad loss, i think they will be on the outside looking in in. Speaking of being on the inside, looking out, chris murphy, our anchor in the morning, me, we have been asked to be celebrity bartenders. Well, were being bartenders at your event. It is called striking out cancer benefiting penn medicine son Abramson Cancer Center<\/a> from three to 6 00 p. M. At the field house at filbert street. You will be a celebrity bartender. I hear a heavy pour. Problem is will he be pouring for other people. Ill make sure because i think we will be doing it at the same time. I willing hovering over you. Tickets are only 35, including domestic drafts and it is such a great charity. You were there for julie crammer this year we are doing it for entire Abramson Cancer Center<\/a> and university of pen. Everybody is invited. Everybody is invited. It is open bar. Come on for 35 bucks and donating to a good cause. Know of game will be on. Yes, yes. The field house all sorts of facilities. We will have soccer from across the pond. I like it. Mike, good to see you. By the way, congratulations on the ratings on your show, number 13 months in a row now. Nicely done. Keep kicking butt. 7 52. Do you watch chop. Do i too. All the time. Champion fridays south jersey. Can they compete with the jen fred. I think he works at a Technical School<\/a> in camden. They are chopping it up in the kitchen. Do you realize you can get too much sleep. What. Are you kidding me. If you sleep too much you have a big, big percentage chance of getting very sick. Okay. Admit it, you did it this morning. Your alarm went off and hit the Snooze Button<\/a> five times. I do it all the time that is why i have eight alarms. Do you know you can get too much sleep. Never can have too much. Doctor mike a new report says you can get too much sleep. You can. You can get too much sleep, yes, you can. If you sleep more than eight hours a day, it actually increases your risk of having a stroke, by over 50, 60 percent. What . More so then if you are sleep deprived. Hold on fish face, i mean doctor mike what kind of hours are we talking about here. Were talking more than eight hours. If you are someone out there, optimally if you can take all comers, 18 to 65 years old you need about seven or eight hours of sleep a nice but if you get more than that, this data indicates an increase for a dramatically of having a stroke. Now, why . Why could this be . Maybe you have disruptive sleep, maybe you have other problems that are making you sleep too long. Main you are not getting sleep that is real good quality sleep and you have to sleep longer but houston, we have a problem. Is it no matter what, mike and i go through this. During the week we work off minute amounts of sleep so when weekend comes. Sure we do, honey. He is in my place and im in mine. Yes. But we sleep longer because we make up for the fact that we didnt have as much sleep before or never sleep longer than eight hours. Problem you are experiencing is sleep deprivation and is there new data that shows one out of three americans are sleep deprived, all the time. That is me. That is not good. What you are trying to do is replenish your sleep debt. Yes. This is, these are people who sleep more than eight hours every single will day. I heard you you can never catch up, you know, trying to catch up. It is in the good to be sleep deprived in the first place. We are in trouble. I have a question for you, this being friday, weekend coming up. I have two bartending events on saturday. I will tell but another one in a second. Is it true that we come in here, maybe after a cocktail or two at night, does that really help. It does, and i will tell you why. New data suggests, that you will reduce your risk of cirrhosis of the liver by 44 percent if you have two extra cups of coffee a day. If you drink one cup of coffee a day, add two more if you like to have some alcoholic beverages. I have a glass of wine with my wife every single night. You wouldnt know it because im so laid back, that i have a lot of coffee all day long. Big surprise. And, i am happen bye that. Because, coffee has antioxidants and all kind of poly phenols and things that reduce damage to the body, antiinflammatory and it reduces the risk of damage to the liver. If you stopped drinking alcohol, can your liver replenish itself or sit shot. Well if you have cirrhosis, there is damage to the liver because there is scarring. Hard to get rid of scarring. The key is dont get cirrhosis. One of the things and i want to bring this up, in the just chill but if you are obese if you are overweight you can get fatty liver and that can lead to cirrhosis. Listen, have coffee. Have a good weekend. Yes. Does it always lead to something. Mike . You are not saying for that. Never kiss and tell. I love you. I love you no kissing.

Pope francis says zika virus is an exception to the churchs ban on using birth control. How about that. Returning to italy from his trip to mention co yesterday, the pontiff said that it would be okay for women at risk of contracting zika to use contraceptives. Pope frances says it is not an absolute evil in certain cases such as zika epidemic in latin america. He then urged doctors to find a vaccine as fast as possible but experts say it will be another ten years. Public gets a chance to pay their final respects to Supreme Court<\/a> justice Antonin Scalia<\/a>. His body will lie in repose at the Supreme Court<\/a> ahead of his funeral tomorrow. President obama has said he will not be able to attend the funeral but he is going to repose, viewing today he will go to the the viewing today, right. Umhmm. Instead vicepresident joe biden will take his place tomorrow at the funeral. Tomorrow. A judge will hear arguments from an illinois vote tore day who claims that republican ted cruz is not eligible to run for president. Donald trump said this would come. Argument cruz was born in can inadequacies and not a naturalized born citizen. Ted cruz admits he was born in canada but his mother a u. S. Citizen. Thus making him a u. S. Citizen. That is his argument. The Cruz Campaign<\/a> has not commented officially but ted cruz did mention it the other night in the the town hall. For most parallel parking is about the most difficult maneuver we can manage inside our car. I still have trouble witt. Yeah, we know do you. Then there are people like nascar legend like jeff gordon. Jeff gordon was only 24 years old when he won the nascar cup series in 1995. He won three more time in 97, 98, and 2001. He ranks third behind nascar hall of fame drivers Richard Petty<\/a> and David Pierson<\/a> in all time victories. Think it would be fun to ride long with him . This car salesman didnt think so. That prank was part of the pepsi ad campaign that was viewed more than 45 million times on you tube. Jeff is now retired from racing but has taken on a new role. He will serve as analyst alongside darryl walltrip at daytona 500 on fox this sunday. Hey look who is here on good day philadelphia, jeff and darryl, welcome to philadelphia. Thank you very much, good to be on. The the reason he is in here is because of that kind of driving. It is the truth. I retired from that. Jeff, in honor of you joining Fox Broadcast Team<\/a> we have found a picture of you in your rookie season with that mustache, man. If i can only take that back and do it all over again. I think that might be a mullet. Hey, those were in back in the early 90s. How does it feel then since you are a new analyst this year, how does it feel to be in that analyst role. I have been enjoying it, being down here in daytona for several days now, working with dw and mike in the fox booth. It has been a lot of fun. Darryl, how about this, it was 27 years ago today, i think, that you won a big race, do you remember that day. Yeah, yeah, of course he is famous for his haircut and im famous for doing the slide. That was a great day. Anybody that wins this race they never forget it. So jeff, are you going to be okay . Arent you going to be itching to be in the car when you see them go around the oval. When the number 24 car pulled out on pit road it is emotioningal, a unique perspective but im enjoying seeing the action from that perspective and being part of the broadcast. We have already had some great racing. It is fun to be in the similar to being in the race car but i think when the flags drops on sunday i will be definitely missing it. Darryl, i have a question i have wondered b i thought we should know this because i watch race ago lot. Why is daytona 500 which is kind of considered the super bowl of your sport, the first race of the season. Well, you think bit, you say you watch racing, a racing fan. When are we at our best. When is a Football Team<\/a> at the best. At the very beginning. When you come down here and you run this race you are racing everybody at their best. They got the best cars, crews, everything is brand new, it is fresh, everybody has a great attitude. The it is a incredible way to start a long grueling season of 36 event. The other thing to remember when you walk out of here, very seldom do you win a race and they say you are the champion of that race. When you walk out of race you are a champion of the daytona 500. We are watching sunday right here on fox. Looking for that fresh start. Thanks, mike, thanks, alex. Good luck, guys. Speaking of riding around in cars. Yeah. Riding with strangers, have you taken uber. I dit. I did it yesterday. It is not just uber but uber pool, mike and yes, you get in the car and they pick up other strangers. How was it. I will tell but my experience. It was different. Okay, jen, what is going on. Hey guys do you remember tommy brower, losing leon he is trying to drop 100pound from labor day. This is the thing he misses most. We will shove tonight his face and see if he can handle it. Giving people options based on their budget is pretty edgy. Kind of like this look. Im calling it the name your price tool phase. Whatever. Eight there 12 on this friday. We have breaking news, police are investigating a homicide in north philadelphia, steve, tell us about it. Thinks unusual, it happened in the day light 5 79 and where it happened, it is bunch of intersections, 19th street, and marge i and glenwood. If you follow marge i street it lead you to the bridge over septa new Jersey Transit<\/a> rail tracks and you can see a body under the white sheet right in the middle of the bridge there the evidence markers indicating bullet casing i would assume. We got here before the homicide detectives here were parked in this camera here, so they are just learning bit as well. We dont have any other details, there was a shooting, amtrak train underneath the scene. So no closing of any rail track that within bad but you can see a beaten up, not boarded up warehouse which you noticed going wye here but a rough, tumble neighborhood you can tell, and then extra rough and tumble made by a murder right as little kids are walking to school around here on our way just off of north broad street. If this person had any chance you can bet the cops would have scooped him and ran him over to the temple emergency room which is probably two minutes way by cop car but in chance, so, a lot of people heard bullets, and they called the cops ape this is what they have found. We will update you you when we get anything from the police. Is that the body still laying there, steve. Reporter they have it cover with the white sheet, careful not to show anything gruesome but this stands out. You dont see any murders like this in the the middle of the bridge in the middle of daylight ever even in the worst parts of the philadelphia. Here we are in north philadelphia right over amtrak tracks. People on the the train looking up, they wont because they dont have sun roofs but they sigh a homicide investigation, as they are flying under on trains. So, im distract there do you think this happened during the daylight or they just discovered it this just happened an hour ago, mike. We were doing our hit at donald trump.

Do uber pool or regular uber. It comes with the pull good news uber pool is a car sharing service. Just share your trip with another person, so when you dont know who is heading in the same direction. If i left the tv station at fourth and market and go to city hall. I ordered an uber pool. On the way down Market Street<\/a> they might stop for other people. Yes, you do not know. Reporter when you open it up they asked to put your destination. First time i called why do i ask how many seats. They want to necessity how many other people they can pick up. Yes good if a car pool option is available it will give you the choice. Thing about soon are pool it is cheaper. Half price almost. Yes. So. I dont mind other people in the car with me fit is half price. I was than the sure. Yesterday, i went out and i said i will try to do this uber pool thing. We will try this out. Who is that. That is me. That is you. Okay. I thought that is somebody who got in with you. In. That is me. I was giving the side eye like who is this person getting in the car because first time i did uber pool we didnt pick up anybody and i am like cool this sound good. And then second time i went in the driver looked in the Rearview Mirror<\/a> do you mind if i pick someone up. Sure. Lets try it. It is supposed to be on your path, in the supposed to go out of way. Sure. Lets try it out. He started turning, all the way around and were in center city, and one way. Couple blocks. And i was nervous and i got anxious, pick up somebody i dont know. Smaller car. What is wrong with you and what is wrong with that good people posted it be careful, you never necessity who will get in the car. When you get in uber you are getting in the strangers car and driver. But it turned out to be a woman and i didnt know what the proper thing was. Im almost dongle said do you speak, do you not speak. What did you do. We said hi and just kind of sat there. Okay good what would you do and tell us about your experience. I will do it the right now. Hold than guys, listen to this, fellows. I with recommend it. If you havent left for work hang around, we have models. We do. Bat your eye lashes, ladies, it is National Lash<\/a> day and you know, similarly they might tell you easily put on some false lashes to get that look and if it is not for you we will tell you how you to make your natural lashes look fabulous. Hi jason. Hi mike. Hi models. Well, ladies when Walking Around<\/a> the office just bat your eye lashes a little bit and say hello. Hello. Because it is National Lash<\/a> day. Many women they love to wear their lashes because they help define the eyes like these celebrity. There is something about a good lash. But some people they dont necessity thousand wear them. Others they prefer to just keep it natural but you still want to get that look. It makes you feel feminine sometimes. Look at Kim Kardashian<\/a> there. For National Lash<\/a> day why dont we break down lashes. So joining me now is jason bowman, hello, jason. Good morning, alex. Will you help us lash it up. It is all about feeling lashy. Yes. Heres the thing, for some ladies they prefer to do lashes. I used to be type of person that i only do it for special occasions. You will break it down and make it easy. Very simple, simple. So here she is already wearing our nice, silk lashes. Okay. Silk lashes are light weight wait. She has a pair on. Yes. Well, her right eye. Right here. As you can see. It gives it the a dramatic more of a natural type of filter lash. There is nothing on the other eye. No, nothing. But you you can see the difference. So what i will do for woman that dont like dramatic lash essy will apply these and these are great the because they are just that a natural looking lash. So this is a lot of times going to the store looking at lashes, some say the difference between that and just regular lashes. It is like wearing a mink coat it is more luxurious, and more exemplary. You use natural hair lash that he is look just like hair. We will pull it out of the tray. Pull it out of the tray. Always let your glue be tacky. When you first start your make up maybe like brushing your teeth you went ahead and squared it out. Sometimes i put on the actual lash. I dont like doing that because sometimes you put too much on. On times less is more. Less is more. You can put it, the reason why we can put it on because it was sitting down here. It got tacky already. If you do it right ahead immediately it will be all over the place. Your eye would be closed, leave outlooking bad. You make it look so easy. Bat your eye lashes for us. That is if were doing the strip. One more thing for the strip. Little drama, you can always do double stack and doing two lashes on one. Isnt that too heavy. It will make it heavier then normal but you you will be able to achieve a beautiful seem less look. You can mix a mink with natural hair. Im mixing natural hair with mink. Here you will see difference. I like using my hand because you can get down and dirty with it. Wow, look at that. Im a double lash fan good lets move to the next one. When im lag at different lash essy see these and they look so complicated these little trays. These are individual. The individual lashes. This is coming with a little adhesive. I dont like that. I still go to the glue. Sometimes that is dry and not as tacky but you want to do. We have one eye already done. It takes a while. It takes sometime. You need sometime to do this. But using tweezers. It definitely looks more natural. You will dab it into the glue. We will go against lash line. Be careful you dont put it on the actual hair of your lash and go right above it the because want to protect your own lashes that you are not the messing up your hair follicle. I have to confess when im doing these i put on a mascara first, because it feels like it is easier to set the lash on top would you recommend that. Sometimes it is trick which the glue. Just make sure you are able to reply lashes first and then once it dries you go back in with mass car a. Okay. I really like this look. It would take a lot of time and just put in one right next to the other. Yes. Make sure you you are following the system. It is long to short. So you want to go short to long. Go ahead and bat your lashes for us. Oh, yeah, look at that, it looks good. So for some people saying jason even though you made it sound simple i needed to stick with what i got my only natural lashes. What are good mascaras out. It is better effects. What a name. You want to have great lash that he is look sexy. You want to compare the brush comb, excuse me. It is all about the brush. It is all about the brush itself. So, the shorter ones will get in and comb through your hair. This will give you more volume and length. So do two different things. All right. So first one i will use by mark jacobs. We have 30 seconds for this one. So you go down you go down and you wiggle up. Down first and then wiggle up. What does that do. This will allow mascara to jump on to your hair and give it more length and volume as you can see. Multiple coats. Absolutely. More the better. You will go on top with more mascara. After you use better than sex. He will keep saying that. You will be able to get more volume then link. Mike is asking for some now. Nice, very is in. Someone in the office all day long, dont have a lot of time save your mass car a urban decay has a new mascara that is great. The put this on in the morning. By end of the afternoon you you need more you pop it on your lashes. I never thought to put more mascara throughout the day. You have to do it in phases. You do this and then it breaks it down so you can add more. Thank you so much, jason we appreciate it. Shade of jason on instagram, shade of jason. Com. Yes. Batting our eye lashes once we do thaw may think are we in love . Well, if you are, maybe you should thank your x. The celebrity giving credit to his exgirlfriend for fining the love of his life. Should dough that. Lets discuss. What makes thermacare different . Two words it heals. How . With heat. Unlike creams and rubs that mask the pain, thermacare has patented heat cells that penetrate deep to increase circulation and accelerate healing. Lets review heat, plus relief, plus healing, equals thermacare. The proof that it heals is you. If you could see your cough, youd see just how far it can spread. Robitussin dm max soothes your throat and delivers fast, powerful cough relief. Robitussin dm max. Because its never just a cough. Hi dad. Uh huh. Yeah. Sorry about that. Think about it there must be higher love down in the heart what do you think . And in the stars above hi ted, glad you could join us, we think youre going to like these numbers. Bring me a higher love i could rise above a person who thinks only about building walls, where ever they may be, and in the building bridges is in the christian. For a religious leader to question a persons faith is disgraceful. So last night at the town hall meeting, Chris Wallace<\/a>, down in, with us here in philadelphia, Chris Wallace<\/a>, donald trump back off of that last night at the town hall meeting. What did you think of the dust up between donald trump and the pope. Well, you know, i only have to laugh because in a race where we thought we have seen everything the fact that the holy father getting involved in the South Carolina<\/a> primary. I agree with you. I think that trump punched back pretty hard when talking about judging somebody else religion is disgraceful. He knew key ward there was disgraceful. Last night at a town hall in South Carolina<\/a> where he soft pedaled it. Interesting it enough the Trump Campaign<\/a> is aware of the all of the states in the country this is not the pennsylvania or massachusetts. Of all of the states in the country South Carolina<\/a> has the secondlyes percentage of catholics, somewhere between five and 10 percent. So this wouldnt hurt him as much as it would getting into a fight whichever side you are on, on this, with the pope, it is not as bad in South Carolina<\/a> which has a heavy population of evangelicals. A new poll comes out about every five minutes. Lets look at the latest one here. It looks like trump is way up in South Carolina<\/a> but i saw a pole pull yesterday was up by two points. This latest poll says 36 percent, ted cruz number two at 19 percent and marco rubio at the 15 percent. We will see what happens tomorrow. Now, on sunday who do you have on. Well, this is interesting because i think politicians are nervous. We will have people do well there but all of them every saying if we do well we will be on your show. We have cameras set up but they are not committing ahead of time. So they are all, a little nervous because between trump, cruz, rubio who seem to be top tear my guess is we will have two if in the all three of them live on sun take. Real quickly here, the president not going to that funeral tomorrow for Justice Scalia<\/a>, sometimes i dont know what are these people thinking. Well, if you dont like the president , you are critical of him. If you like the president you probably dont think a lot. I will say this, there is in great tradition of president s attending funerals. There has only been two sitting justices have died since 1954, and in the 90s, president bush, or rather 2,000 president bush went to a funeral. In 1954 the only other one Dwight Eisenhower<\/a> didnt. So there is not a big tradition of that. That is the vicepresident s job to go to funerals. He has to have something to do. Something to do. I have something to do sunday, watch you Chris Wallace<\/a>, ill see you then. It is a date good Rob Kardashian<\/a> is happy, he is flashing a big smile for all to see, why people are making a big deal out of his new photo, with black china and i just broke my lent promise. I did. I apologize to the pope and all of the my other catholics. I hi, wilmington. Wilmington blue rocks. You threw out the first pitch. Against your advice. But you did you great. Thanks. 8 46. Rob. Kardashian. You have already said it new good well. Dax, he gave up saying kardashians for lent ape he keeps messing it up. Didnt you give it last week and talk to me and immediately said it. He cant do it. Lets just say he cant do it. We had a discussion in the news room about this picture of black china giving Rob Kardashian<\/a> a kiss. It is not authentic. The it is like shes kissing her brother. I dont see anything wrong with that. This is first shot we have seen them be a couple at all. We have seen them out together. He has been hiding for years. This is just one step forward in him kind of being more public about not only himself but his relationship, and, you know, i think with him what is telling most in this photo is giant smile on his face. He has not seen rob this happy for so long. Yes. It is him coming out of his shell. This is great. Yes, i think it is awesome. It looks like he lost weight already. I honestly think he has. We had a shot of him the other day where he was out of the car. He has been dropping the pound. He has been working out, eating healthy. I got the to say black china seems to be the best thing to happen to him in the long time good that is what physical activity will do for you if you know what i mean. Didnt that tool just continue beiber get in trouble for having a machining i before why does he want another monkey. Yes, he had a monkey, as you may remember, he went to germany and they confiscated the monkey and he never went back to get his monkey. Now he is saying monkeys are awesome and vowing to get another monkey. He needs to get a house first and keep this machining i in the house. He is kind of of laughing about it. However, north american primate, alliance has come forward and they are very upset. They say do not, do not repeat what you have done in the past, this is irresponsible, for you to go get another monkey and send a bad message tour fans. They are saying place be smart about this, just continue. Hold on, dax. He wants another monkey but he just left the other one out there why dont he go get the first one he had. Exactly. Go and pick up your own monkey. Actually, he showed up in a super bowl commercial. That was beibers monkey. Kylie jenner. I cannot say the word. She spent 15 you this dollars on a grill. Well, she didnt but tyga bought her a new grill for her mouth and she showed it off on instagram. But this was a valentines gift. Fifteen you this dollars grill which how often is kylie jenner going to be sporting a grill in public. It doesnt seem like a good investment of tygas money. They do it for instance gram, you do it for the gram, out in the clubs. Sure. 15,000 Instagram Photo<\/a> is that it. In the club it is dark, you have to show your teeth and b ling. I dont get it, it is just not my thing. Would you look good with the grill, dax. Sure. Have a great weekend. Thanks. We need to come up with the actress to play marry poppins. We have had great suggestions on twitter. Give me some example when we come back. They have to replace Julie Andrews<\/a> here. I see, Julianne Hoff<\/a>, lottery numbers. So, the disney film people are making this movie again. And this was 1964 with Julie Andrews<\/a>. So who should play her part because they have already announced the actress. We have been asking people to weigh n mariah says ann hathaway. Someone else says adele. Carrie underwood. I love that. And you said who, mike. Julianne hoff. Colleen says hey does mike think Julianne Hoff<\/a> should play every role ever existed. Yes. Yes. Well, ill tell you who it is, let me be blunt, it is emily blount, and shes just in talks to play the role. So this is not official, so julianne could still get it if they cannot come to an agreement and sign a contract but shes the front runner, emily browned. Car out ann says taylor swift. That should be good. I think i will pack up my things. And get outy will just go. So the academy award, what was it, last sunday of this month. It is next, is it. Well, it is coming up.
