THIS WEEK'S PODLUNCH TALK
Nineteen years later, Americans will remember the thousands of lives lost during the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, this year's plans have been a balancing act at the sites where hijacked planes piloted by al-Qaida terrorists crashed on Sept. 11, 2001: New York, the Pentagon and a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Even though the ceremonies may look different, the idea remains the same: Never Forget. TODAY'S QUOTEI feel like I have to start off by saying I stand behind these players 100%, 100%. What they’re trying to do is bring positive change in this country that frankly is long, long overdue. Let’s just get that out of the way and go call a football game.
Before kickoff last night, announcer Chris Collinsworth delivered a message about the NFL’s social justice initiatives and players demonstrating before the national anthem.

LUNCH TALK
David Klein, one of the creators of Jelly Belly jelly beans who left the company, has launched a nationwide treasure hunt. The ultimate winner will get one of his candy factories - right out of Willy Wonka's playbook.
As per CNN, here's how it works: "Participants pay $49.99 to enter the treasure hunt, which takes place in every state (though Klein said he's still working on planting the treasure in all 50 states). Only 1,000 tickets are sold per state, and everyone who buys a ticket is eligible to win Klein's factory."
