But my friend, let's start with a little baseball. Got a lot we're gonna cover with you, but you know the Yankees better than anybody, right? And Yankees Dodgers over the weekend had everybody mesmerized. What is it about Aaron Judge versus Shohe that seems to captivate everybody so much? Advertisement Well, I mean, it, it is a, I, I grew up in an era where I fell in love with basketball with Magic versus Bird, and this is the best version of it, you know, 40 years later, whatever it is. Uh, these are the two best players. One is probably the biggest global star in the world, or definitely the top 3 of any sport and showhatani, what he's done to the Dodger business model has just been In incredibly hard to even articulate. Uh, they're doing NFL numbers, uh, or better than NFL numbers, and they're in MLB baseball, so he's obviously speaks for itself, and then Aaron Judge is one of the biggest domestic stars we have, uh. Advertisement In sports, I mean these guys transcend the sport of baseball. They're both incredible human beings and they have something in common which is kind of cool, especially in 2025. They're the biggest stars of sport, but we know very, very little about each one of them, which there is a mystery about them, which is kind of rare in the social media uh world. Right, well, you've played, you're about to be an owner. I'm gonna let you tap dance for a little bit. If I made you the owner of a Major League baseball team, and you had to pick which one of these two stars you wanted to have on your franchise, you go and get one, which one are you going with? Advertisement Oh, I can't pick one of those. I'll tell you what, I'll let you pick and I'll get whoever you don't want, and we're both and we're both winners. Being an umpires thankless, sweaty work. So you're joining us on behalf of Lysol. Let's start here. Tell everybody what you're doing with Lysol. Well, you know this, I mean, refs, uh, reps and I's are some of the toughest jobs out there, selfless, like no matter what, you have 5 guys screaming at you, then you have 5 guys like every place, somebody screaming at you. You have fans cheering refs you suck and all this craziness. So I teamed up with Lysol to really talk about how crucial they are to our game and uh to celebrate them and recognize them both their work on and off the field.

Passenger's 'flight allergy list' mocked online: 'No coffee, no fragrance, no airplane fuel'
A few users argued that the passenger likely wasn't allergic to the listed items, but rather just had sensitivities. — Pixabay A photo of a passenger's 'flight allergy list' is causing quite a stir on social media for its unusual demands. While the passenger who wrote the list hasn't been identified, X user Sergio Rodriguez (@LyftGyft) shared a photo of it on the platform on May 19, with the caption: "Imagine sitting next to a passenger like this?" On the list, the airplane traveler asked that no coffee or cashews be served on the flight due to allergies. 'I'm highly allergic to smell of coffee and would appreciate it if you could refrain from brewing coffee,' adding, 'as even the smell can stop my breathing.' The passenger also claimed they were allergic to non-food items such as 'fragrances or chemical smells,' naming colognes, perfume, scented soaps, and body lotions as substances they couldn't be exposed to. Gasoline and airplane fuel were also listed. The passenger noted that they take several medications and also asked that they be supplied with a 'large bottle' so they wouldn't have to bother attendants for more refills. At the end of the note, they expressed their gratitude, writing: 'Thank you for your patience and understanding in trying to make the flight as enjoyable as possible for me. I appreciate you.' However on X, users had no sympathy for these demands. 'Passenger shouldn't fly,' opined one user. Another said: 'Get off and walk Karen , omg' Others ruled the list as bogus: 'Sorry, but take a private plane or keep an EpiPen handy. If not approved by a CRO (Complaint Resolution Official) from the airlines, then doesn't have to be enforced.' A few users argued that the passenger likely wasn't allergic to the listed items, but rather just had sensitivities. While the items listed can all trigger an allergic reaction to some extent, it doesn't seem likely that the passenger would suffer a severe reaction if it's happening in a different row or area on the plane. A 2024 review published in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood debunked the common misconception that peanut/tree nut particles can lead to allergic reactions through aircraft ventilation systems. In fact, researchers claimed that food-induced allergic reactions are 10-100 times less common on flights than on the ground and that most risks stem from surface contamination rather than airborne particles. Researchers noted that cleaning surfaces (like tray tables and seat backs) where allergen residues might be present is a highly effective precaution for allergic passengers. In other words, stashing some Lysol wipes in a carry-on bag might be more effective than issuing a 'flight allergy list' to flight attendants. – News Service

Reckitt misses first-quarter like-for-like sales estimates
Reckitt, the maker of Dettol and Lysol cleaning products, has today missed first-quarter like-for-like net sales growth estimates, as fewer people bought its products in Europe and North America. The company maintained its full-year outlook and expects like-for-like net sales growth of 2%-4%. Reckitt's first-quarter like-for-like net sales rose 1.1%, a smaller increase than the 1.4% growth analysts had expected in a company-supplied poll. Price/mix, a metric that reflects how much Reckitt sold its products for, rose 3%, and volumes declined 1.9%. Analysts expected price/mix to rise by 1.3% and volumes to be flat. The company, whose other products include Nurofen tablets, cold remedy Lemsip and Durex condoms, said it is "closely monitoring the evolving situation around global tariffs and the potential impacts on our supply chain and cost base."
