In today's episode, we remember the 247th anniversary of the Continental Congress defining the United States flag, which we now commemorate on Flag Day, celebrated on June 14th. Next, we check the weather in Boston, expecting sunny skies with a high near 84 degrees. Local news focuses on Massachusetts facing a shortage of primary care physicians, with many nearing retirement and fewer entering the field. Sports highlights the first round of the 2024 US Open at Pinehurst number 2, featuring remarkable moments from Scottie Scheffler, Patrick Cantlay, Ludvig Åberg, Tiger Woods, Matthieu Pavon, Martin Kaymer, Tony Finau, and Phil Mickelson. We'll also hear about the Red Sox at home taking on the Phillies, and the Celtics on the road in Dallas taking on the Mavericks. Top News dives into Boeing conducting additional inspections on some 787 Dreamliner jets due to incorrectly installed fuselage fasteners. Business news covers a federal judge likely to reject a proposed settlement in a lawsuit alleging Visa, Mastercard, and major credit-card issuers restrict competition over merchant fees. Science discusses a new study describing "Buronius manfred-schmidi," a potential new species of great ape that lived 12 million years ago during the Miocene epoch. Finally, in Entertainment, we learn about Andrew McCarthy's new documentary, "Brats," which explores the lives of '80s actors known as the Brat Pack. We conclude the episode with a quote from Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes, reflecting on the importance of making time for pointless activities on the weekends.
